So the loop function does not work on normal CDZ bios? With it on or off the next track will always play?

Ohh, are you sure about this? The TOP loader has the option to loop track.

i am never sure of nothing, doubt is the sens of my life XD
i could ensure you that the loop is by CD on my CDZ by this way
BUT
for loop by track use the number key, Programme fonction selcet your track and use the loop fonction

Does anyone have a English manual scan for the CDZ so I can confirm how it should be working?

Ok i test it on my Neo Geo CD Z
But counter to my memory its not working, you have all the time an CD loop and no an track loop

Sorry to mislead you

Quick update on the current situation.

Finally got a test bios that works on all three systems (top loader,front loader and CDZ). I need to tidy a few things up still in relation to this still but once that's done the real work can start.

I have been having a play with some ideas for a new radio screen. This is knocked up in paintshop and not on NeoGeo hardware but it gives some idea of what I would like to change.

That's a neat idea Raz, maybe you could offer a service for custom bg image insertion to an ordered bios???

Adding a service like that would be to hard. It may be possible to have a couple of BGs to choose from though. I personally think the cd player part can do with a new layout also.

Could you then add an option upon purchase whether if one wants the original graphics or the custom wallpapers. I really don't wanna say anything negative but I like it simple and original, just like adding something really awesome to a console without making it obvious. Just like a switchless mod or something similar. Anyways, your work is and always will be da bomb!!

This is something that may not even get added. I was just having a play around. The radio does really need some kind of overhall though but if that happens it will defo be an option

Just a thought, as many games don't have a logo for the preview window in CDZ bios, is that something you could do anything about? I would guess there simply isn't space to store that much image data...

You can mod the original game CDs to add one.

Hi s8n187,

This project is essentially complete, it has been for some time. The hardware has been available for over a year now and this consists of a bios replacement and a usb interface to communicates directly with said bios. The work Raz is doing now is a complete Universe Bios implementation for the NGCD and this will also include pc2neo functionality. There are two PC clients to communicate with the neo, one is windows based and the other is a command line client. Both versions offer similar functionality with the only difference being that the command line client provides CD emulation over USB.
