BizHawk 2.0 firmware

In case you haven't heard of it, there's a new version of multi-emulator BizHawk available. Major changes are a  new Mednafen-based Saturn core and dropping x86 versions of Windows. Windows 7 x64 and newer are supported.

 

Anyway, I've noticed I'm missing some firmware and that usual versions around don't seem to fit. Here's my "missing" list:

 

Super Game Boy SPC

King of Fighters Cartridge (Saturn)

Ultraman Cartridge (Saturn)

Odyssey 2 Bios

Philips C52 Bios

 

If anybody else is missing other files, they can grab them  here:

*UPDATED*

 

Strange as the 2 Odyssey bios available everywhere have the correct SH1, but are not recognized by Bizhawk. The file "FirmwareDatabase.cs" in Bizhawk source provide the following information:

 

("b2e1955d957a475de2411770452eff4ea19f4cee", 1024, "O2", "BIOS", "Odyssey2.bin", "Odyssey 2 Bios");
 

And       

("a6120aed50831c9c0d95dbdf707820f601d9452e", 1024, "O2", "BIOS-C52", "PhillipsC52.bin", "Phillips C52 Bios");

I've put both odyssey2.bin and phillipsC52.bin file with correct SH1 in Bizhawk firmware folder, hit scan and still missing! 

 

Both Saturn cartridges are available in MAME software list sat_cart folder, but only the SH1 for KOF95 is listed in "FirmwareDatabase.cs":

("a67cd4f550751f8b91de2b8b74528ab4e0c11c77", 2 * 1024 * 1024, "SAT", "KOF95", "kof95.bin", "King of Fighters cartridge");
            Firmware("SAT", "ULTRAMAN", "Ultraman cartridge");

Same problem as Odyssey: correct file name and SH1 (at least for KOF95), but Bizhawk report it as missing. It's the only BIOS with a file size stated as formula "2 * 1024 * 1024" which equal 2,097,152 bytes, which is exactly the size of kof95.bin. No filename or SH1 reported for Ultraman, but the one I have from MAME is SH1 56c1b93da6b660bf393fbf48ca47569000ef4047

 

As for the Super Game Boy SPC "sgb.spc", it's nowhere to be found in my collection. Also, strange because AFAIK, the .spc extension is for SNES music file. I also noticed the file size of 66084 is not a multiple of 8 as most/all bios. Finally found it, it's is the boot jingle. Same problem as the other: proper file name ans SH1, but reported as missing.

 ("079a7ce93f3fd7d35e444b2fab16b1867c95e2c1", 66084, "SGB", "SPC", "sgb.spc", "Super Gameboy SPC");

Here are the 4 files for those 4 bios:

Thank you very much.

Many thanks!

Even with today/yesterdays Dev-Version of BizHawk these are not found automatically,

I chose to right click "Set Customization" on each BIOS, pointing to the apropriate files - works!

Except for Ultraman - as you stated, there is no verify SHA1 - but it is accepted.

 

Now on to test the new Version(s)!

Thanks again!

and in firmware window (within emulator) if you right click on one of these 5 bioses and click on info the emulator will show and error

Bizhawk 2.1.0 just got released. There's new firmware (bios) file for Sega 32x and Nec PC FX.

I'm missing these firmware (bios):

32x 68k BIOS

32x SH2 Master Bios

32x SH2 Slave Bios

PCFXbios

fx-scsi.rom

 

Can someone provide a link to these firmware (bios) so I can download them?

Did you even search before making this request?
All those roms can easily be found online; they're even in Mame.

 Yes I did but I did not know they are in mame. So now I know that the mame roms for 32x and PCFX do work in Bizhawk. I just had to extract the files and took those necessary rom files needed by bizhawk and it works.

I doubt you searched, because searching for "Sega 32x bios firmware" and "Nec PC FX bios firmware" -both written like how you wrote it in your request- gives links to those roms.

 I did not know they are in mame until you mentioned.

You don't need to know they're in Mame, those search terms -without 'Mame' in them- give you a link to the roms you requested.

Thanks, I needed those :)

muchas gracias por los updates y bios en general un saludolaughing

Stopped using BizHawk because they won't fix the Colecovision.
I've spoken to them many times but they would rather work on newer system than fixing old bugs.
