SegaCD Problems

[roach]

I'm trying to play LUNAR via the Gens emulator, and I loaded the BIOS correctly, I assume, and the ISO opens..
But after "LUNAR: the silver star" it freezes.. I got something about configuring of an external something or other, so I hit "Sure!" and after it said 'Hit start' everything froze.
Since then, everything after the logo comes to a complete halt.

Any idea what may be causing this problem?

Another note: I changed the location chosen for the 'BRAM Backup' and I recieved the message again asking if I want the External Ram Cart formatted.

I have the exact same problem. I'd like to know what's wrong, too.

[roach]

Well, I'm bailing for an hour or two. If you can get any answers to our problem, I'd be much obliged.

Thanks for anyone who'll help, in advance.

Ugh..Can anyone help? Please? ANY Suggestions would be great..
I've looked forever for a Sega CD emulator to play Lunar again, now this crap pops up. Bah.
Can someone at least link me to an emulator they consider better than Gens for Sega-CD purposes?

Firstly, sega cd emulation isnt all that well, they only emulate popular games, and sometimes it crashes too... Thats why i bought a sega cd yesterday ... neway when the bios loads up instead of pressing start press 'A' go to 'Options' or 'Memory'
press 'A' again, go on both format buttons, go back to main screen click on Cdrom and your in business
if you still cant work it out, reply and il try and simplyfy it (cant spell simplyfy!) hope I am of some help ))
(btw gens is the best Sega/Mega Cd emulator u just gotta know how to use it)

well ill give you a site to try they usually have plenty of emulators updated emulators r usually put up instantly once they come out so here it is www.emulator-zone.com

Actually, I tried formatting like that before even posting here, since I read something like that in another thread.
Still the same problem.

Also, is there any REALLY good place to find Sega-CD ROMs? I'd love to have Jurrasic Park and Rise of the Dragon(think that's the title.) again. Same with Dracula.

hmm i think I found a solution, you need to download a file off me (is only 1 kb) i will give you a url in a minute and instructions
as for the sega cd isos, http://www.169s.com/eg365/emu365/games/mdcd.htm
they dont have jurassic park but they have a few cool isos,
if you find ne dont forget to tell me

[roach]

Thanks, man. I'd have been royally pissed after sitting here DLing Lunar with my slow 56k and it not working.

www.sonicssite.bravepages.com/lunar.rar
download this file extract in the gens folder,
if it asks if it should overwrite say yes, load lunar normally and it should work ! tell me if it does

hmmmm darn it do you have any other way I could get the file to you?
are you familiar with ftp?

[roach]

Hmm.. Not really. But if it comes down to it, I'll learn fast. Or make myself learn fast. But I have AIM, also.
