FBA-XXX Pro v1.28

[Prican25]

legolas11908 that post you did was a rom request and it was deleted as well as altering your last post.

 

please follow the rules and it wouldn't hurt to try finding patches that can change the ones you have to the one you need like most of us have done and i hope you at least ran romcenter or clrmame to even try to fix them.

 

ok, seeing how its updated to 1.06 i'm gonna update the rest of my romset and i'll post when its on newsgroup

 

UPDATE: Currently making pars (need quickpar for these) for the roms and will be posted with roms so if someone got a corrupt zip or 2, the pars can fix them or even make a few that might be missing

 

bare with me as it will take a while to be done (currently saying 5 hours to go) in the mean time for those of you that have no idea what newsgroups is and/or wanna know about it, go to http://slyck.com/ng.php and read up on how it works. few good servers to mention are www.giganews.com, www.newshosting.com, and www.astraweb.com and you can also ask your ISP if they offer newsgroups.

thanks Prican25

[Prican25]

its finally being posted topic is: FBA-XXX PRO V1.06 + ROMSET For XBOX

 

its gonna be in the following groups:

 

alt.binaries.the-terminal

alt.binaries.games.xbox

alt.binaries.cd.image.xbox

alt.binaries.emulators.neogeo

 

now for a few quick notes:

 

All the romsets are complete with the exception of mslug5's m1 and samsho5 m1d (the one currently in samsho5 is a fake) due to still being kept private/unreleased.

 

par2s posted are to the romset only, i tossed in fba-xxx pro v1.06 in the post but doesn't have par2s for it tho i can post some later just in case anyone has problems with it.

 

for some of you that have most of the romset, grabbing the par2s might just fix your set instead of grabbing the whole post but i can't 100% guarantee that as you may need to replace a few so it can fix them or so.

 

enjoy the post and don't expect me to put this on a torrent as i personally hate them but if someone does wanna take my post to torrent, feel free to do so but no links to it here.

Schweet, nice one!

 

Okay, I leeched a post entitled fba-xxx pro 1.01 off Usenet a couple of days ago.

 

Checking the Romcenter dat files for this set there's about 70 odd 'Red' ROMS. Just getting a few of those certain ROMS off of your new 1.06 Usenet post and replacing them turns them back to 'Green'

 

One question - I can ignore 'Yellow' ROMS, yes? There's nothing wrong with them?

[+ T +]

Wow that clears that up, +T+ i thought you were trying to match Mame sets the whole time. I was losing my mind trying to figure what the hell was going on

Yeah I've always been in two minds about this. On the one hand it would be great to have FBA-XXX Pro support exactly the same sets as MAME since most other PC emus do and it creates a set standard for ROMsets that means any downloaded set will work straight-out-of-the-box on any emulator, Xbox or PC.

 

But on the other hand, the whole point of FBA-XXX Pro has always been to use the most accurate ROM dumps so that collectors (like myself) have a platform on which to actually play the sets they've spent alot of time putting together and getting right.

 

It's such a shame that MAME didn't use a better source of information when putting together its NG sets. But my understanding is that the developers don't really care that much about the system any more due to all the controversy over the 3-year-rule and such.

legolas11908 read my previous post as it has a link explaining newsgroup along with servers.

Things are heating up again for this emu (well deserved) here and all the usual places, so much so complete pro sets are floating around in varius places. This gives even novices a chance to get in all fun that this emu has to offer. Thanks to Prican and others keeping this puppy alive, Thanks

Checking the Romcenter dat files for this set there's about 70 odd 'Red' ROMS. Just getting a few of those certain ROMS off of your new 1.06 Usenet post and replacing them turns them back to 'Green'

 

One question - I can ignore 'Yellow' ROMS, yes? There's nothing wrong with them?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

 

Well, you know how inside each ROM zip file there is a collection of several files? Yellow ROMS means that you have all the correct files to make that ROM in your ROM set, but there is still something wrong with that set. Just click on the ROM name in the left hand window where you have your ROM paths defined and then look at the right hand window to see what it says.

 

It will probably be one of two things. First, one of the files inside the zip may simply have the wrong name. In this case it will say next to the file something like, "Bad name, name should be [whatever]". So all you have to do it right click on the ROM and select "Fix game" and Romcenter will rename it for you.

 

The other message you might see is, "Available in another game". That means that a required file is missing from that ROM, but the file that is missing is located in another ROM set (i.e. a different version of the same game). So just right-click on the ROM and select "Fix game" again and Romcenter will copy the missing file from the ROM that has it and put it in the ROM that is missing the file.

 

Yellow ROMS are easy to fix, but you can't ignore them because the emulator won't run them unless you do fix them.

Excuse me,anyone knows differences between encrypted,not encrypted,decrypted, fully decrypted and bootleg version of a rom?Wich is the better version?

 

I think bootleg version is faster to download.Am I wrong?

 

Thanks

[Prican25]

encrypted is the romset with encrypted p and c roms and are most likely to be the parent roms for neogeo sake.

 

non encrypted is the p rom thats decrtpted while c roms remain encrypted.

 

decrypted is the romset's c roms decrypted while p roms are encrypted.

 

fully decrypted is the p and c roms in a the romset being decrypted.

 

i might be a lil off on what i said (feel free to correct me )but using decrypted/fully decrypted romsets give you the fastest load on fba-xxx pro but if using those alone be sure they have the other files that are needed from their parent rom.

Thanks!
