Missing Files?

[puppydrum64]

There seems to be a few things missing from the dev kit. I'll put VASM's error code below.

Also it seems that VASM tries to output the cart.p file into a folder called "BuildNEO" but it tries to put Listing.txt in "BldNEO". Creating a new empty folder called "BuildNEO" solved that problem but even if I create blank files and name them after the ones not found (including the file extensions, mind you) it still doesn't work.

I think the files that are missing are all the neogeo rom files,

I can't provide them for legal reasons.

You need to put the file neogeo.zip in RelNEO\roms\

I thought I already took care of that... Oh well. I know a Neo Geo expert and I'll ask him

I got the file but this is what happens now:

Is there any reason that sm1.sm1 gets read twice? I have no idea what these files are for unfortunately.

EDIT: After renaming "sfix.sfx" in the bios to "sfix.sfix" I get this:
