Mr.X Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Flycboy, admin of EZ emu-zone.org forum has confirmed & proved mslug5b (Bootleg) is sold in commerce. He has even shown bootleg cart chips. I want to thx + T + for this release, & especially about updated CPS-2 conventional ROMs renaming & updated Neo*Geo drivers : svcboot, svcplus, svcplusa, kof2002b & kof2k2pa. Congratulations ! Btw, I dislike mangling (i.e : King of Fighter, The) ; but this is my personal viewpoint.
+ T + Posted March 6, 2005 Author Posted March 6, 2005 (edited) Well I've updated the patch to work with the 06.03.2005 release. But the sourcecode currently on the FBA-XXX forum is still from the 05.03.2005 version. So I'm not yet able to update Pro with Gogo's new fixes. Great job on the crash-fix BTW, Gogo.

+ T + Posted March 6, 2005 Author Posted March 6, 2005 Just something I found interesting. Today, just for fun, I took the original FBA-X b4, updated it to the latest FBA core and gave it support for all FBA-XXX Pro's romsets. The idea being that without all FBA-XXX's extra bells 'n whistles it should run even better than Pro. But, for reasons not yet clear to me, Pro beat it hands down. Especially in the sound glitching department. Weird, huh?

sammaz Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 this is awesome to have you guys working on FBAxxx...we all appreciate it!
Prican25 Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 yes it is great to to hear both gogo and + T + to work on fba, i hope they can share sources and improve on it even more keep up the great work guys
+ T + Posted March 7, 2005 Author Posted March 7, 2005 (edited) I just want to make it clear that FBA-XXX and FBA-XXX Pro are going to remain seperate. I think the two projects are trying to achieve different things. Though naturally I don't mind offering any help if it's needed. Gogo, if you PM me your e-mail address then I'll send you the CPS folder from my source (I'm hanging on to the full sourcecode for now though). Although the fixes mainly involve restoring old code. For Slammasters I just restored the 'slamPro' fix from the old core. And I didn't actually fix the right-stick crashing problem, I just removed your 'ShowNotWorking' feature that was the cause of it. So it's up to you if you still want it or not. Some good news though, I am no longer working solo on FBA-XXX Pro. djohng has offered to lend his expertise to the project for the benefit of everyone. This is great, because many fixes/tweaks are far beyond my limited coding knowledge. Hopefully between the two of us we can make Pro the ultimate FBA-XXX. Edited March 7, 2005 by + T +
+ T + Posted March 7, 2005 Author Posted March 7, 2005 UPDATE: Fixed a problem with samsho5 and clones.
Mr.X Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Today, I 've learnt SF2 Turyu has no alt ver. Flycboy corrected my error & explained : SF2 Turyu (Bootleg) is different from SF2 Toryu (hack) whose alt ver set is SF2 tory2 (hack) [see MAME Plus extra sets supported] SF2 Toryu & SF2 Tory2, both of them, need SF2CE13 as parent.

Thanks for the info Mr.X.
GLiTcH Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 hmm still having prob with kof2k2nd.. like i sais it worked fine on the last build.. not the recent ones.. lol... here my crc's, it says rom set its correct but all i get its a black screen
deadsoulz Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 What exactly was the problem I did notice I was missing a lot more Samsho5 roms then I was in previous releases, was it just a rom crc / dat issue? UPDATE: Fixed a problem with samsho5 and clones.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
famitsu1 Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Hi,wondering if you could help me out,very new to this site.Basically I can't for the life of me completely download the new Pro update(or anything else avalible on Thraxen's site/index).I have tried doing so both from the link at the begining of this thread and directly from Thraxen's site as well with no joy.Basically everytime I start downloading i only get approx 100kb into the download before my pc tells me that the download is complete????(I have tried this approx 30 times now).Could anyone shed any light,any info would be greatly appreciated.Is there an option in my control panel or something I need to check or uncheck?Thing is I have no problems at all downloading from the official FBAxxx site nor from any other places either.Ta famitsu1
+ T + Posted March 7, 2005 Author Posted March 7, 2005 (edited) GLiTcH - I'll do some testing with kof2k2nd later on tonight. It's strange since the driver is effectively identical to the one in the previous build. deadsoulz - The problem was that I had forgotten to initialise the 'nRet' variable in the drivers when I implemented the PCM2 fix in these games. So I don't think this has anything to do with your missing ROMs. famitsu - Perhaps try using a download manager or try right-clicking and choosing 'Save Target As...' rather than just clicking the link. Failing that PM me your e-mail address and I'll send it to you. EDIT: Just noticed another problem. Clones of samsh5sp are currently listed as clones of samsho5. I'll release a new version with this and other fixes in the next couple of hours. Edited March 7, 2005 by + T +
