You have to follow the old conversion guide. If some files in your rom (zipper archive) do not match the ones requested by the tool, just rename their extension to match, and restart the conversion tool. It's been a long time since I've used it, so I don't remember better than that. 🤷

I bumped my thread to bring my problem to your attention again, adding a few pictures to awaken interest in this amazing Neo-Geo emulator.

To this day, playing 24bit arcade games on DS/DS Lite, with this almost 15 years old emulator, has something incredible: I think it is the best and most amazing emulator on DS (with jEnesisDS in second place): games at full speed, no slowdown, perfect music. Games of almost 100Mb (e.g. SNK vs. Capcom) work excellently and smoothly: the Dpad on the DS lite responds exceptionally well especially for fighting games, while sadly the one on the DSi is too stiff and the diagonals don't work.
Only the Super Sidekicks series have graphical glitches.
Anyway, by randomly pressing buttons during gameplay I discovered, if anyone else is interested, the cheat menu (R+start), which is already a great help. But I still haven't given up hope of knowing how to access the uni-bios menu, assuming someone will help me now.

In fact, I never did! I'm fine with the arcade mode: I like the feeling of putting virtual "coins" (through select button) into the arcade machine. Otherwise, it makes no substantial difference between the two versions.

I don't know. It's been a long time since I've tried it. Why? What's the problem if you have to change its setting every time? It is a matter of a few seconds each time. Anyway, I don't think you can save those settings.

Regarding kof98, it is not a game I use on NeoDS: prefer the two versions (conversions) I play sometimes on GBA SP.

Among the Neo Geo titles I have tried on NeoDS, only Super Sidekicks series (background scrolling glitches) and Sonic Wings series (no bgms) have some issues, as I had already mentioned elsewhere.

Lad, if you will be good, as soon as I have time I will post here the list of all the NG titles I tried on NeoDS (although then I deleted some, because I didn't play them).

Edit. Here it is:

This is the best emulator for ds, it runs at 60fps on the dsi with a clock of 133mhz, unfortunately it has graphical flaws with a clock of 133mhz.
