Final Burn Consoles 1.0

This was originally going to be something I put together just for my own use but as others expressed interest in the idea I decided to release it. Final Burn Consoles is a build of Final Burn Legends that contains only drivers for the home console systems currently supported by FBA; the Sega Genesis, the Neo Geo AES console, and the Capcom CPS Changer. FBC is optimised to provide as authentic a recreation as possible of playing games on these systems. Please see the FAQs below for more information.

Enjoy!

Sega Genesis Features:

- Genesis driver based on PicoDrive.

- Restored all Genesis games that were removed in FBL1.4 and many more
from the HazeMD set have been added.

- Super Bubble Bobble added and working.


Neo Geo features:

- Runs in console mode only giving access to AES-specific features in
many games (vs. mode, training mode, options etc.).

- Japan AES bios or Universe bios are also selectable.

- Select button mapped to Xbox Back. (Pauses game)

- ROMset consists only of games that were officially released as AES
cartridges and, where possible, AES cartridge ROMs are used.


CPS Changer features:

- Supports both available CPS Changer ROMsets (sfzch, wofch). For the
other 10 released games CPS1 sets in freeplay mode have been used until
genuine CPS Changer dumps become available.

- Pause button mapped to Xbox Back in Street Fighter Zero.

FAQs:

Question: What's the point of this? Can't I just do the same thing by playing with settings in FBL?

Answer: Yes. But this is for people that like the idea of having a separate emulator for the home console variants of these systems.


Question: How is the Genesis driver better than NeoGenesis?

Answer: It isn't. Although it probably runs some pirate cartridges that Neogenesis doesn't and I'm told the scanline filter is better.


Question: Why don't my FBL ROMs work?

Answer: Because FBC uses console ROM dumps where possible. These can be built from a full FBL set. Check the DATs provided in the tools\ folder.


Question: Why are some Neo Geo games missing?

Answer: Because not all Neo Geo MVS arcade games were released as AES home console cartridges.


Question: CPS Ch... Wha?!

Answer: The CPS Changer was Capcom's answer to the home Neo Geo. It played specially modified CPS1 cartridges of which only 12 were ever released. Use Google, there's a lot of good info available on this rare system.


Question: Why use only one emulator? Why not just take a bunch of existing Xbox emulators and patch them into the FBL UI?

Answer: Don't be stupid.


Downloads:
Binaries and sourcecode in the usual places.

Were you able to run in the FBL Consoles:

- Nakajima Satoru F1 Grand Prix? (It is the Grand Prix one... not the Super License.)
- Fantasia?

Both games come straight from HazeMD,
but they don't run in my old FBL 1.3.

Thanks!
