kbnrylaec: Could you list the tool/method to convert/extract those game data to ROM file?
I would be happy to add them to OP.
I wrote a Python 3 script to do it. The script is a WIP and only the games I mentioned are completely converted. To run the scripts you need to have a recent version of Python 3 installed.

To get the ROMs for Raiden Legacy you need to put the convert.py file in the roms directory inside the Raiden Legacy install. Run it and it creates a directory named mame, inside it are the converted ROMs, only raidenb is complete and works.

For Double Dragon you need to put both .py files in the resources/game directory and run dragon-convert.py.

ADDED, thank you!

I have downloaded the script and put it in my doomsday archives.

I don't suppose you can reupload this script from your backup, could you please? It's been delisted from the hosting service.

The Python 3 scripts provided by renloz are
convert.py
and
dragon-convert.py
packaged in the file convert.7z.

I copied and verified them in pastebin:
1. convert.py
2. dragon-convert.py

Download them and put them in the same directory.

For anyone here who owns it, is the Street Fighter 2 Alpha GOG release rom-based?

I could not get this to work for dragon-convert.py

I downloaded the files from Pastebin and the problem is that the convert.py file is named convert.py.py so dragon-convert.py cannot find and use it. Just remove the extra .py and it should work.

so the scripts worked, created folders (in both raiden legacy and double dragon. Now what? RetroArch wont run the files, even zipped. How do i get MAME/FinalBur to play the files?

EDIT: NEVER MIND. I'm an idiot. Grabed the wrong emulator

I tried the convert.py script for Raiden Legacy and I keep getting a Syntax error at end of line 62 where the apostrophe is supposed to be.

fn = prefix + f 'flash0_blank_region{region[0]:02x}.u1053'

I'm not very knowledgeable on Python so any help would be appreciated.

I re-test it and did not encounter any problem. I use Python 3.8.3.
1. Enter the "roms" directory
2. run convert.py
No problem, everything is fine.

I tried it one more time on 3.8 and it worked. Previously, I had tried it on 3.7 but besides that, I'm not sure what made it work this time.

Thanks.

Hi,

I could extract the MAME roms for Raiden Legacy and Double Dragon Trilogy GOG releases using the python scrypts.
However, one game was missing for both Raiden Legacy and Double Dragon Trilogy :

Raiden Jet
Double Dragon III

Is it normal that these 2 games have not been extracted ?

I did not test them thoroughly. (You know, I have too many games and time is limited.)
Wait for others to report it.
