  1. Damn it. I didn't see that kenshiro had sent out a newer build. I just updated it and now I need a new neogeo bios. :rolleyes: SFIX.SFIX, lo.lo, and unibios 2.3 are missing.

     

    There must have been a change to the neogeo bios in the last few days. Just my luck. Don't suppose anyone can lend a hand with this. I've actually got a bit of time to test this thing for the moment.

     

    lmao that's was sure, that's why i'm a ballbreaker and always asking people if they made the install properly "Yeah no worries" lol. I'm currently at work, i'll send the neogeo.zip tonight.

     

    PS : can i slap your ass to punish you? :naughty::D

  2. Also I might start a new FBA thread as ive been doing alot of moding to FBA lately (I will badge it differently and talk to gogo about it..... sorry to anyone it upsets, im not doing it to upset them just cause I see alot of issues with FBA and I wish to use it and some may like my changes)

     

    That's mostly chinese for me... You said one year ago you gonna help me on the FBA UI, and now you wanna create a new one?

  3. Hey kenshiro,

     

    Just wondering if you removed games from this release...

     

    I noticed quite a few games like fantasy zone and alex kidd and rastan which were included in the old datfiles for 128 aren't included in this release.

     

    You're absolutly right, and here's the reason ;)

     

    When System16 drivers were added in FBA-XXX Pro 1.28, those drivers were preliminary, i mean that was a Treble Winner WIP. The issue you can notice for example is a crash of Shinobi when you launch a magic power. Now those drivers (and more) runs pretty well on FBA.

     

    About one year ago, i added all those drivers to FBA-XXX Pro and get an issue on games protected with the FD1094. A lot of games were working (and good crap: Alteread beast, Shinobi, Golden axe, Y board games, System1), a lot were not.

     

    I was assuming that people will live with it and will say something like "whatever that's cool, there's a lot of new Sega games", while i was looking for a solution (when i added the Sega, i did my first step in coding like 3 - 4 months ago, so you can figure out what was my head (like this :blink::):ph34r: ).

     

    But that was the contrary. Mostly "When will you get those games working? Will you speed up Y Board games? I want this, i want that, blow me :(" most part in PM. As that was "balls consumer", So i decided to simply remove them until i get it completly working, what i never done, i haven't take a look on it since one year.

     

    You can be sure if tomorrow i release a build with most of Sega games working people people will asking for the non working games, or a new feature or something else. So no way for me lol. And as nes6502 managed to release a build with Sega games, that's not problem.

     

     

    HD nuclear test build sended to everyone... ;) If someone can take a look at it as soon as possible lol, i gonna leave for all the week end, and also impatient to know if that works or not :)

     

    Edit : there was a mistake in the previous build, i send a new build ;)

    Sorry lol

     

    Edit 2 : a new fix, you' ll have to download it again lol

     

     

    Thanks man! I'm still alive -- :P just had a LOT of crap come up unexpectedly. Life can be a real pain at times but it can be real good too.

     

    For the 720P HD modes: so far I get crashing in these:

     

    Garou Mark of the Wolves

    KOF 99

    KOF99d (KOF99 decrypted)

    KOF2000

    KOF2000d (KOF 2000 decrypted)

    Metal Slug 3

    mslug 3d (Metal Slug 3 decrypted)

    Esprade

    Guwange

    Gunbird

    Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon

    Samurai Shodown 4 - few crashes

     

    -Almost ALL CPS2 games will go to a black screen. Some games will just bring up the "There is an error starting game" screen such as: Vampire Savior (vsavj, vsavu) Marvel vs Capcom, Street Fighter Alpha 3, Dimahoo etc. Any later released CPS2 games will go to the error screen, but the rest will boot to a black screen.

     

    I'm not even close to done testing this, so I'll be back with more input in a short while.

     

    I need some specific infos. Did you get a crash while loading or after? Are you sure do you have the latest release i send? Did you delete your ini directory and the old save? How much RAM is available before you launch a game?

     

    Watch out, that's useless to test another games than Neogeo, cause the changes are only on those drivers. For the CPS2 that's normal, there's no VMM on it. I wrote a code 1 month ago with VMM on each game, and haven't release it yet cause there's some issues i noticed on FBA (PC version) and i'm still waiting for a new release to see what changes were done (btw hsf2 works now, that's the only game which need a VMM in non HD mode).

     

    The fact you can't launch encrypted Neogeo games surprised me a bit (not as much), but the fact you can't launch decrypted sets is really strange.

  4. Eventually I would like to remove all of the clones

     

    :P God what you wanna do that? The primary goal of FBA-XXX Pro is being accurate and roms collectors.

     

    If there's 10 revisions of a game, so i gonna try to run all of those. Imagine if i remove all CPS2 clones, that will be a complete rampage, 2 games in the list lol :huh:

    My goal is not to port thousand games, it's being the more accurate as possible on my favorites stuff (CPS1, CPS2, Neogeo, Cave, Toaplan, Psykio...).

     

    I know a lot of people don't care about the clones and just wanna play, but there's a lot of collectors who loves it, and i'm definitly like that too.

     

    get a set with only the best version of each game

     

    Same, who can tell which his the best version? Often you can't even notice a difference except title data in game. That will be a very subjective...

     

    (and my brothers and friends might ask why games are missing)

     

    Huh? Kick them in the ass, that's the solution lol :P

  5. I was assuming that this issue (Neogeo games which are display in others) were due to some modifications i done, so i was lazy and not worried about that, i concentrate my effort on drivers modifications :D

     

    As most Neogeo games works now, i took a look at it and set the code to filter games as he was before. And hell, that's the same problem :):blink:

     

    Seems to be an "hidden" issue which were in previous build, and that's really annoying, can't see why i do that. If someone wanna help to track down that crap, just take a look at the sources and let me know ;)

     

    mtsaint, i assume that will not be horribly difficult, but i'm not motivated as much lol

  6. I m asking you kenshiro ifyou are ok to integrate the possibility to view videos preview like in zsnexbox. There is a ton of roms for fba xxx pro, so we need a fast way to see if a game is good or or total crap, for this ; the videos previews are perfect.

    If it's a code problem, i can ask madmab if he knows how to integrates the code to fba, since he has succesfully added the wmv8 video preview in all the Xports emus.

    My friend RessX has all the fbaXXX preview videos ready to go we could share with you.

    Let me know Kenshiro

     

    I'll be honest: that will be a nice feature, but not interested at all to work on it. As this is an open source project (in contrary of some Xbox project, no comment :) ) , if your friends wanna code it, go for it ;)

     

    Just keep in mind that what i'm doing is 100% drivers related, so if some people want to work on UI definitly go for it :)

     

    PS: btw i will post my Neogeo code on Neosource, for those who are motivated to compile it ;), i wouldn't release a new build now, not enough time lol
