Pinned CPS2 Roll-Up Packs: All roms for the CPS2 kit

SmokeMonster · Apr 22nd 2016, 3:39am

What are the CPS-2 Roll-Up Packs?
The Roll-Up Pack List is a documentation roms that can be placed on an SD card for a complete CPS2 kit setup that's ready to use. They include every single CPS-2 game and hack. This will save people from having to scour the forums to find everything. I'll update my lists whenever new content is available.

How to Use
Format a microSD card as FAT32 using Windows, not Mac or Linux.
Extract a pack to it using 7-Zip, maintaining the folder structure. If your card is the I: drive for example, the layout must be exactly I:\games\rom folders\

New vs Old Pack?
The current pack is for users with the latest firmware, who have wired their kit to support key writing. This allows it to flash MAME ROMSs, with accuracy so perfect that Twin Galaxies is now accepting submissions on the kit. The "Old" set is for old firmware users and is no longer updated.

Troubleshooting
The most common kit problem is SD card incompatibility. Test multiple cards before reporting problems, especially if they are larger than 4GB. Format only as described above. Format the SD card every time you update your pack, before copying new files to it. This prevents corruption and alphabetizes the game list. Format and re-copy everything, every time. "No SD Card Detected" probably means you didn't create a \games folder. It can also mean that your microSD isn't compatible or needs to be formatted correctly.

CPS2 Roll-Up Base Pack
Newest or most bug-fixed English versions of every game
A complete CPS-2 set, but without countless duplicates for every revision/region
All hacks released on the forum
Pure MAME ROMs, except for the hacks
Progear Red Label: Halfway to Hell
NAME files in every folder
Fits on a 4GB Card

CPS2 Complete MAME Add-On Pack
Complete MAME set with every revision/region
Should only be used to pull ROMs into your base pack, unless you want to scroll through hundreds of duplicates on the LCD selector.
NAME files in every folder
Fits on a 16GB card

Here's V1 (above) and V2. Mitsurugi-w sells nice die-cut prints of them too.

PascalP · Apr 25th 2016, 6:25am

Here is also a nice label:

I should ask, just to make sure. Does this have the Rockman 2 fix on it? Downloaded but hadn't pulled my kit from the cab yet to copy the files over yet. Sat down to play RMPB2 and had it lock up, realizing I hadn't put the patched version on myself... T_T

Yes, it has the fixed MegaMan/Rockman 2.
