The MAME format version is incorrect. They need to be converted to img format verses chd. There is a tool that will do that I think, but it will likely be easier to find the correct set. It must be for the PC emulator called U64Emu.

Check the KI-XXX 1.0 thread for a list of what the rom names have to be once you have the correct set.

Trust me. Just look for the U64 versions. You can sidestep all the work you just posted. They are not hard to find.

The U64 ones being the .chd files? I'm not sure if I understand you correctly. If I look for the U64 files, then I have to use the U64 emulator opposed to the KIXXX?


U64 for the PC  uses it's own format for the KI1 and KI2 hard drive image. They are in img format
MAME for the PC uses it's own format for the KI1 and KI2 hard drive image. They are in chd format

They both use the same format for the roms I beleive.

KI-XXX is a port of U64 for the PC to the Xbox. Therefore you can only use the hard drive image that is in the "img" format.

You could download the mame hard drive image in chd format and convert it to "img" format, but it's probablly going to be easier for you to just find the "img" hard  drive image in U64 format.

Thus, look for KI or KI2 for U64 and not for MAME.

Once you have it. You will need to rename the rom files to match the names required by KI-XXX. I posted the rom names in the KI-XXX 1.0 thread.
