New FBA-XXX Pro

Recommended Posts

FBA-XXX Pro

--------------

 

What is it?

-----------

FBA-XXX Pro is an attempt to re-work FBA-XXX. Its focus is on using the most up-to-date drivers and romsets.

 

It is primarily based on FBA-XXXb5 though it does use code from older versions, newer versions, and other sources to achieve best possible performance and compatibility.

 

 

Why Pro?

--------

Since the main focus of this build is to use the newest released rom dumps, it is perhaps unsuitable for more casual gamers who just want to play the games in any form and don't really care whether their roms are accurate and up-to-date or not. FBA-XXX Pro also supports alot of additional clone sets which most people probably aren't interested in unless they're serious about ROM collecting.

 

 

The Patch

---------

The FBA-XXX Pro package now contains everything you need to get FBA-XXX Pro running on your Xbox, with the exception of the main XBE file. To get this you will need to apply the included IPS patch to the 'default.xbe' from the latest release of FBA-XXX (23.07.2005).

 

So basically you just copy the 'default.xbe' from fbaxxx_23_07.zip into your FBA-XXX Pro directory, and run 'patchme!!.bat'.

 

 

The Changes

-----------

Here is a list of the differences between this release of FBA-XXX Pro and FBA-XXX. Note that if you have problems starting any games in the 'OTHERS' category such as battleg or feversos, you may need to delete the old config files for these games from E:\TDATA\FFFF0504.

 

GENERAL CHANGES

---------------

 

- Fixed it so the emu now runs correctly from disc as well as HDD (DATs, ini, etc. are now created in E:\TDATA\ffff0504 rather than the root directory).

 

- Fixed a problem where certain non-working games would always appear at the top of the game list.

 

- Fixed the default screen size so it does not clip the edges of the game-screen. (If you've run any previous versions of FBA-XXX, you'll need to choose 'Reset Screen defaults' to see the difference)

 

- 'bShowFullRomNames' now shows full MAME-convention ROMset titles when enabled. (toggled with Left Thumbstick button on the gamelist screen)

 

- Improved the UI and menus.

 

- Changed Reset shortcut to LTrigger + RTrigger + Start.

 

- Included Romcenter and ClrMAME Pro DATs.

 

- Included 'Pro Fighter' as default skin. (a tweaked version of Duracelleur's excellent 'Fighter' skin)

 

NEO-GEO CHANGES

---------------

 

- Updated Neo-Geo drivers to use the latest rom releases. (Note that there are some exceptions where the correct ROMs do not yet work)

 

- Now supports both xxxxd (Decrypted C ROMs) sets as well as xxxxnd (Fully decrypted) sets.

 

- All decrypted Neo-Geo drivers now use an S ROM (speeds up loading and is more correct).

 

- Added console mode fix patches to all drivers that require them.

 

- Fixed pbobblen and pbobblna. (by djohng)

 

- Fixed scrambled graphics in cthd2003.

 

- Implented Neo-PVC protection code for mslug5, svcchaos, etc. (by IQ_132)

Why is it that u have some games that were in the older FBAXXX Pro release DATs  (Sf2turyu, sf2ce13, etc...) and not in the newer one?

Because this was done from a new codebase and I had to add everything manually. It doesn't surprise me that I missed a few. I'll re-add those two in the next update.

I'm having troublerunning kof2k2nd, when I launch it it says "the romset its correct" then it starts to load then I get a black screen, on last build it would load it just fine.. rotdnd has been changed too, now it asks for a 264-p1n.bin thats 8mb instead of four... also when you launch an incomplete rom set the emu freezes :(.. still testing the other roms

 

edit: the emu freezes on roms that are incomplete n fbaxxxpro displays " Graphical data is missing"
