Converted PC Hardware
===Converted PC Hardware===
Based on normal PC architecture with a variation of Windows 7 Embedded or Linux installed and tons of DRM and custom drivers. These can still be run on computers using the right launchers (Game loader All RH, SpiceTools, idmacx tools, TekParrot...) but most likely won't be emulated by MAME anytime soon, and not just because of their policies on what hardware is too recently commercialized to cover.

====Emulation====
The games first need to run on an operating system equivalent to that of the machine, which may imply WINE [[Wine]] use on Linux or having to upgrade to 64-bit editions. Some GPUs or wrappers may be required. Additionally, the following need to be installed:
* '''Microsoft Visual C++ Runtimes:''' A one-in-all link for all editions from 2005 to 2015 may be found [https://www.sereby.org/site/All%20in%20One%20Runtimes here].
* '''Microsoft .NET Frameworks:''' Any version from 1.0 to 4.5 may be required, the newer, the better.
Remember to backup data from the downloaded scene release before trying to fix it to run.
* '''Launcher:''' The game needs this to work at all. There are many: Jconfig, TeknoparrotTeknoParrot... and each game requires a specific launcher. If you got the dump from elsewhere, not in a clean state that doesn't work, it may be because of conflicting launchers and you will have to delete all of them (typically <code>Detoured.dll, Game loader Rh.exe, Typex_config.exe, Typex_loader.exe, TTXconfig 2.0, TTX-moniter.dll</code>...)
* '''iDmacDrv32.dll:''' Needed in Nesica games. If present, do not delete it, copy Jconfig.exe and the replacement iDmacDrv32.dll from the Jconfig package, then double-click NesicaXlive.reg to import keys to your registry, and use the game executable to run the game. If not present, copy Jconfig.exe, JVSemu.dll, and jvs_loader.exe from the Jconfig package, and use jvs_loader.exe to run the game.
* '''Save Fixes:''' Some games can't save scores and data at all. For a bunch of machines, there are fixes (called "loaders pack") that enable that, but some machines (nesica) handle saving purely using official servers in which case there's not much (yet) to do about it.
