don't worrie about it... once the emu is released im sure they will tell you what you need and how to do whatever... whats the pont of having uncompressed images on you hd anyway? to waste space 4 now?

[Gotetsu]

Dunno why you people have the CHD files... since they only work with MAME and you need a P4 4.0gighz to run it :S

[crobar]

chd is all i can find...i guess ill just have to buy a ki hard drive off ebay.

Here's an easy way to convert a CHD back into an IMG.

Unfortunately you need to be a member of those forums to get that attachment, but I've got nowhere to upload it.  Perhaps someone else can get it and put it in a more convenient place.

In the zip are two batch files (and everything they need to run aside from the CHDs) that will turn a kinst.chd or kinst2.chd file into a working U64Emu IMG file.  I did it with a set of MAME CHDs, and both work in U64 now.

I know where to find the proper .img files but i dont wanna get bollocked for posting url's if anyone has ideas of how i can pass over the address then let me know.

It took me ages to find the KI2.img so i think its only fair that i share.

Well just in case anyone is interested, the link that Roll gave worked really well and it was extremely easy to use.  Just register for that forum and youre set.

And for all those who think we're stupid to download chd files instead of images, first off  theres a ton of chd files floating around and i have yet to find any server hosting an image.  Second off if you have a 56kconnection (like i do) then you save yourself about an hours worth of downloading that can be made up by about five minutes using that program Roll suggested (cant reccomend it enough, thanks Roll!).

if you do a search on filemirrors you will find ki1 and 2 easy and in the right format.

QUOTE (splattered @ Aug 11 2003, 07:39 PM) Question, i have the mame roms and killer instinct 1+2 chd files, both 93, 380 and 136, 472 respectively. Are these files gonna work or do i need to hunt down different files? Since this is a port of U64, the Mame CHD's aren't going to work, you'll need the 'original' HD images. One is 125MB, the other one is 400MB big. On Tourniquet's site you can download the CHD patcher and there's an explanation in the zip to reverse the patch, so you'll get the 2 original img files from both CHD's.

I have the CHD files for KI1 and 2, but i've got no idea how to get them ti IMG files (Because that's what you need to run them under U64-X). My question?? Could anybody give a decent tutorial about how to do this??? PLEASE!!!!!!!!

[sergej]

Get hdcomp (included in mame pc version) then do hdcomp -extract ki.chd ki.img. The tutorial inside the KI/KI2 CHD Patcher/Generator says you need to prepend the hex values "4147 2034 3139 2031 3320 3437 0A" for ki1 and "4147 2038 3133 2031 3620 3633 0A" for ki2 and trim the ki2 image file to 419,586,061 (after prepending). After doing these things everything works perfectly fine for me.

I just used the link and coverted my CHD files to img files.

When I run u64 and selct either one of the games it just freezes.

Do the Hex values still need to be changed even when using the link above?

Never HEx edited before so a little help on this would be great.

I did run a HEX edit on both files and all seems fine. They both match but there are addition values after the ones listed. DO I just delete them?

Sorry just a noob to HEXing..

Can anyone help me here regarding the CHD to IMG?  I went to the website roll pointed to and download the program but I have no idea how to use it.  I have all the necessary files, such as KI the game itself and the CHD, but have no clue how to make the image of killer instinct.  Can anyone provide a step by step tutorial?

You know the search feature on this forum can do wonders.

Once you've downloaded kipatch-chd-to-img.zip (link provided by Roll) here's what you do:

For Killer Instinct 2:
1. Extract kipatch-chd-to-img.zip
2. Move kinst2.chd to the same location you unzipped kipatch-chd-to-img.zip to.
3. Double-click on KI2Patch.bat
4. Wait for the IMG file to be completed, then exit KI2Patch.bat
5. Send the IMG file to your xbox.

For Killer Instinct 1:
1. Extract kipatch-chd-to-img.zip
2. Move kinst.chd to the same location you unzipped kipatch-chd-to-img.zip to.
3. Double-click on KIPatch.bat
4. Wait for the IMG file to be completed, then exit KIPatch.bat
5. Send the IMG file to your xbox
