FB Alpha Enhanced R1 to R14 [v0.2.96.72]
« on: December 12, 2007, 03:15:12 PM »
FB Alpha Enhanced R1 [v0.2.96.72]

This is a new clean version of FBA Extras. This one is being tested carefully so you can enjoy a bug-free FB Alpha UI + Extras that are gonna be added in every release.

Primary build (not released here, just source) is being compiled in a Windows Vista Ultimate environment and using MINGW v3.1.0, the purpose of this is to test FBA in the latest Windows OS and try to fix bugs found when running on it. Then we can have a 'Windows Vista Capable' logo in the FBA homepage lol  :p.

Note!: First releases will have most important fixes not available in the latest official release of FB Alpha so if Treblewinner or company want to add them, they will be easy to find and implement =).

R1 [December 12, 2007]:

src/burner/win32/roms.cpp
  • Fixed all dialogs with the correct parent 'hSelDlg' (so you can't click on other FBA windows when they are open while in the Game Selection dialog).

src/burner/win32/sel.cpp
  • Made 'hSelDlg' available for other modules (Non-Static HWND).
  • Cleaned my old code for showing icons/images on FBA buttons [that fixes some buggy window effects].
  • Cleaned my old string coding, used the correct way to manage strings.

src/burner/win32/burner_win32.h
  • Declared 'external hSelDlg' in 'sel.cpp' section

src/burner/win32/scrn.cpp
  • Edited code for switching FBA windows mode (without menu) when right click is made over the main window, now it's correct.

src/burner/imagebutton.h & .cpp
  • Added this module to clean old code for showing icons/images on FBA buttons.

src/burn/neogeo/
  • Implemented the newest cleanup for the neogeo drivers by IQ_132. (Can be found here -> Click <-)

That's it for now ^^, later I will be adding some needed updates to the Game Selection dialog and some other fixes.

You can grab the files right here:

fba_src_029672_enhanced_R1.7z [~140KB]

If you have any issues compiling just let me know =)

SeeYaa!
 :biggrin:

PS: The VStudio Toolkit version will come later, right now I'm using MINGW, but I will get the environment files soon.

Very thanks for your works!!!

Here you can download my MINGW setup (v3.1.0):

http-//fightercore.freepgs.com/files/MINGW.7z [~11MB] (check edit notes)

and my current batch file to compile my build is this (you should change some paths):

Quote
@echo off
set MinGW = E:\MINGW
set GCC_EXEC_PREFIX = E:\MINGW
@path=E:\MINGW\bin;E:\MINGW\lib\gcc-lib\mingw32\3.3.1;%path%
@path=E:\MINGW\perl;%path%
@path=E:\MINGW\perl\bin\MSWin32-x86;%path%
@prompt=mingw$s$p$g
@mingw32-make
@echo _
@echo FBA Compilation using MinGW v3.1.0 Done.
@echo (Using Windows Vista Ultimate Environment)
@pause


If you still have issues compiling just tell me  ;p

EDIT (Oct 3, 2008): Check this new thread for the required stuff to compile FBA -> http://neo-source.com/index.php?topic=1041.0

SeeYaa!
