FBA-XXX is driving me nuts


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

since 3 days i downloaded 900mb of all various kinds of Roms.

 

but it seems, all the roms that i've get has crc errors or incomplete.

My emulation plattform is the latest fbaxxx@Xbox.

Romcenter is also the latest, im usin the generated fbaxxx-Dat-file.

 

to show, how incredible my situation is:

there are in each zip file, some roms that are missing or has crc mismatch.

my patience is no over and im now driving crazy.

Plz help :D (I can bet a completely RomSet of all other Consoles/Arcade Roms.)

Well, it looks like a lot of yours still have bad names. Have you tried to have RomCenter "fix" any of your ROMS yet? You can right click on any ROM and select "Fix game" and it will do all the renaming for you and remove any ROM files it's doesn't recognize (it stores them in a folder called "archive" in it's install directory).

 

But one note... RomCenter will sometimes tell you that you are missing BIOS files (i.e like uni-bios) and it will want to import those into each rom individually. That just takes up extra space. You only need one copy of BIOS files inside the "neogeo.zip". So the best way to do it is to select the ROM you want to fix in the left window and then highlight the individual ROM files you want it to fix in the right window. Right-click the ROM files and select "fix game". This way it will only fix the ones you highlight. Or just make sure you don't have your neo-geo.zip in the ROM path it's scanning so that it has no way of pulling in the BIOS files.

 

Anyway, the first thing you should do is have it fix all the bad names.

Of course, i tried to fix all the games.

But it seems that there to many unknown and missing ROMs.

 

And i read, that u can build to kinds of dat files with fbaxxx. One with default.xbe and the other with default (mame dump).xbe...

Yeah, which version are you using? The default.xbe? If you remove that one, remove the two DAT files it created, rename the MAME dump to default.xbe, then restart the emulator it will make new DATS for the MAME dump version.

Sorry about that, PRican25. I know we're kind of skirting the rules a bit, but this is pretty much a last ditch effort for me. I've been looking everywhere for this stuff. I remembered there was a ROM request forum here, but then one day it just disappeared, so I didn't know what else to do. :)
