Help with neogeo and cps3 in fba

I wanted to try deeply this emulator but I got stuck with the systems mentioned.


I converted the romset from mame .106 using the .dat file provided in this thread:


http://boards.openpa...t/page__st__540


Also added the bios for neogeo compressed in .zip (the file I used for gngeo).


Cps1 cps2 and other platforms worked quite well (mile miglia, afterburner, ...) but almost any rom from neogeo and no one for cps3 worked and I can't find any additional info in said thread. And the emulator does not include any documentation.


Any help with this would be apreciated.

I'm sure someone will come along and help you, but I should let you know that I spent ages messing with the neogeo emulators (trying to get my beloved Last Blade working), but with no result. You might have more luck, but be prepared for a lot of tweaking.
 
If can make last blade work I will tell something.


Maybe as Yoshi says the best solution is to download that version of fba with the entire set.


I'm not using directly the 106 set I have converted it with clrmamepro.
 
Regarding Last Blade, all 3 versions run fine...

The Last Blade 2 / Bakumatsu Roman - Dai Ni Maku Gekka no Kenshi (NGM-2430)(NGH-2430)



The .dat file tells you how the ROM (game.zip) should look like in terms of file names, sizes and most importantly CRCs. It also contains the necessary BIOS information.


*** Note: The "merge=filename.ext" entries are references to other .zip files, such as the parent ROM or BIOS.


Here an excerpt of the FBA 0.2.97.24 .dat file for...


lastblad.zip


lastbladh.zip



lastbld2.zip

And this is how the .zip files should look like...

If your .zip file matches with the .dat file, you have the correct ROM version and the game will most likely work.


The most convenient way to get ROM information, is to use the Windows version of FBA.

Even without a ROM set to scan, it is still possible to get the ROM info, just tick "Show unavailable".

Hope this helps. :)

Ok, finally a member of gp32spain gave me a link for the entire romset. I haven't tested all but the only game that doesn't seems to work is garou.


I don't have the permission for sharing that link, it's a mediafire account of a third person, but if anyone is interested I can enable a ftp server at home to share this.


@vadsamoht, I have tested last blade and my version works, so if you are really interested in it just let me know.

Yes, yes, my idea wasn't put anything here on the public forums just give access information via private messages or anyhow.


I realize that I should have explained it. My apologize.
 
Indeed, I let it in the hands of the admins, if they think my messages may compromise the forum, or don't follow the rules please delete them.
 
@vadsamoht, I have tested last blade and my version works, so if you are really interested in it just let me know.

No, it's OK - I've moved on to other games since then. Glad to hear you've got the emulator working, though.
