Not sure...are you using all the files...and a fresh directory of fba? It works fine for me.... Make sure your using the project file from this source as several files have changed names. On another subject... I'm also working on a FBA Plus U9B version of the xbe over the New Years Holiday...compiles fine but the new decrypting for KOF2003 PCB 1 gives an error on decrypting on the XBox...so trying to resolve this problem...before releasing! -djohng

its djohng not dhjong!

You mean gogoackman's update? not Manto...he say's he's not involved ...and foo? whose that...website?...havent seen foo...if your talking about gogoackman...I've implemented the files that have been updated...and will release an update within the day. -djohng

Man, I tried that. My roms check out and they still don't work. ROTD.zip won't get past the hardware check screen, ROTDn.zip has static for sound, Kof2k3.zip shows messed up graphics and when you press start after adding a credit it resets the rom. Both Rage of the Dragons roms listed in the dat FBAXXX 11/02 provieds don't have CRC's listed for the files in the zips, so that's a little frustrating as well. Pleaaaase, help me if anyone has these games working. It's completely out of my hands at this point. Reply would be good, PM would be even better. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I just tried rotd and rotdd with my latest fba xxxtreme release and these work great! Check out the download link, these include the DATs for RC and CLRM. kof2003b should work also... -djohng

www.xbox-scene.com is the best site to learn everything needed. The forums are a good place to gather information, plus there are a number of tutorials online. Most likely if you have a question it's already been asked an answered somewhere in the forum...just do a search. I use both a custom Mameox and FBA XXXteme on my arcade machine with a x-arcade development board for the controls. I also use unleashx for a menu system...it's a great setup for parties! -djohng

Is there a DAT which is updated with the latest neogeo games; hacks, bootlegs, encrypted, decrpyted etc...? I know of johnny_dat files from romshare is a good source, but I don't know if it contains all iterations...

R.U.B.? -djohng

Thanks Prican25! I couldn't have said it better myself!...some people just want to be spoon fed w/out taking a little initiative! -djohng

If there's no hacks..what is ms5plus?...I thought those "plus" games are hacks? But this is a good reference to use as a base, then I could add a "neohack" switch in the ini file if people didn't want to include neohacks...just a thought. -djohng

Why doesnt anyone read the text file with the release...you have your answer on what file needs patched! -djohng

Why delete them? I can just add new ones in the source code and recompile? If you have the correct CRCs for svcboot, svcplus (the dump from the bootleg cart which has bankswitch), svcplusa & svcsplus (Super Plus), adding them is simple. -djohng

Released! - Time to kiss my kids goodnight and go to bed!~ See the first post for info. -djohng

Manto, It's great to see your online...I hope the work I'm doing on updating the drivers doesn't cause any concern for yourself or the other fba-xxx developers...if it does...I will not release my updates to the source code! I'm doing the work for my boXcade cabinet and I'm just sharing the source/patches for anyone else. Is there a CVS site like http://sourceforge.net, that I can submit the updated drivers, neopcm2, neotext, etc updates that I have completed on fba-xxx? -thanks & Happy Holidays! djohng

If you can find it...your better than me! I've looked on the website, and PM Gogoackman. He says it's on the website, but I can't find it. The only source I can find is his 09/03 version. I prefer to have a univeral stable code base to start from...ao the 02/11 would be great...and it would initially be less work for me. But, I'm not sure you would get anything more from it, since most of the changes he mentioned, I've already implemented in the new release. -djohng

...just bumping topic..in case anyone is tracking...new update on first post. -12/23/04 -djohng

I try to stick with the latest MAME for the majority of neogeo, then I review the various forums, and other areas for the multiple hack variants. I try to add most of hacks/plus versions etc. that make sense. -djohng

Do you know the correct CRCs for the real set? Also, I think there was an alternate version and a plus version besdes the original set? I'll start with svcchaos...and let you know within the next day... -djohng

As per the topic subject line: If you would like a particular Neo-Geo Hack or Rom added to this build, now is your time to SPEAK UP and REPLY or PM ME. There's nothing worse...than after the fact...someone asking for this rom or hack to be added! Speak up or forever hold your tongue till the next major replease! -djohng

No. Since with every WIP update, has several rom changes, you would end up cursing at me in the end... The biggest change yet to implemented is the Neo-Geo roms...with so many updates and hacks since the last release of FBAXXX...there is no need to having the DATs generated from a WIP. -djohng

09/17 version link is still in the message board and still an active link. The XXX-MAS version is NOT RELEASED...it's being worked on....

But...now we have in working in FBA-XXX too...and just updating the driver (d_tmnt.cpp) is a quick file replacement for any new updates! -djohng

FBA XXXtreme Released 12/26/04; (Happy Holidays!...whatever the holiday that you celebrate with your family!) PM any comments on this release! -djohng ============================ Patch based on 02/11 Gogoackman release: http://www.thraxen.com/emu1/fba122604_djohng.rar Patch based on 02/01/2005 Gogoackman release: http://www.thraxen.com/emu1/fba122604-gogo0201_djohng.rar Source code link: http://www.thraxen.com/emu1/fba122604_src.rar -Check out some of the non-neogeo games like outrun and afterburner with sound! TO DO AS of 12/25/04: (a small list and some touchups...) -Second Screenshot (or picture) directory [i.e. for cab or marquee pics]. -Test all roms; build a list of not working/errors and compare to latest neomame/mame release base. -Add newest kof2003 code by iq_132 released on 12/24/04. -Review neogeo driver & hacks, add other major ones, if necessary. -Alphabetize/reorder newest driver releases into game list (now at bottom of list for testing purposes). -Review and implement user comments if applicable. -Finalize neotext fix case format 3-7. (neorun.cpp) currently locks up on these cases; commented out specific code in drivers. Games like mslug5 run fine w/out this fix?!

I think it's going to take more than a few minutes to fix. If you know anything about coding, the xbox controls need a complete rewrite to make it compatible with the pc source. The "keyboard/joystick/mouse" concept in the pc version has given way to more generic digital or analog controls....which from an xbox view is a more simpler concept, but it still requires a complete rewrite of the code....and some understanding of xbox architecture And if memory serves me...X-port isn't interested in updating the mame source...he's working on some kind of MAC emulator at the moment. -djohng

Quick update for anyone whose interested... Uploaded my latest source (MAMEoX087) to the FBA-XXX djohng site. Based it on 0.84.3 with minor source changes for lightguns, MAME087 and VCCMAME087. No, it's not complete. Try compiling and it errors out on the xbox controls portion (the last section) The control source in MAME was changed drastically in 0.85. So the MameoX controls have to be re-written. Since most of my programming background is non-XBox related this will probably take longer than I expected; though I am making progress...albeit slowly since I have to learn the structure of mameox as it compares to the mame controls, while changing it. Mostly xbox_keyboard.cpp and xbox_joystickmouse.cpp require the changes. Link to source is at http://www.thraxen.com/emu1/mameox87.zip -djohng
