So if you want to create a dat file for a specific driver, you can now do the following :

Download DatUtil.
Use the following command line (DatUtil is a command line utility) :

Code: [Select]

datutil.exe -G d_cps2.cpp -c -f generic -o CPS2_Datfile.dat "FinalBurn Neo (ClrMame Pro XML, Arcade only).dat"

Where :
- d_cps2.cpp is the filename of the driver
- CPS2_Datfile.dat is the filename of the new dat file
- "FinalBurn Neo (ClrMame Pro XML, Arcade only).dat" is the filename of the original dat file

Hi guys,
Just a couple little changes lately:
1: Martial Champion, fixed shadows & added a speedhack for Chaos' level (this level doesn't play nice on low systems, like pi4.  speedhack option, in dips, will fix.)
2: Added Angelo Salese's protection fix for Super Trio (suprtrio), it fixes the protection-reset on the bonus stage after level 9.
3: The final/non-prototype version of Pack'n Bang Bang was added to fbn!  Thanks to arcadez for adding it to fbn, and twistedsymphony, Hammy, ekorz, rtw for finding & purchasing the pcb/dumping it & etc

As for the slow news - I'm working on a little side-project started by Kev that may or may not be added to fbn in the future.  It's very cpu-hungry, but, I'm having fun here...

best regards,

Give us at least a little tip about this project...

Takeda Shingen (tshingen) on the Jaleco Mega System 1 has finally been fixed, yay!
Big thanks to Haze for cracking this nut

Saint Dragon (also on Mega System 1), fixed a bug that would occasionally cause a hang about halfway through level 4

Also thanks to Arcadez for the heads-up!

Thanks for the Saint Dragon fix , dink

Thanks for the Saint Dragon fix , dink 

Always welcome!

You might want to try stdragon after updating exe again, I added support for the raster effect that Haze worked out the other day.  It only appears on the start screen, but it's neat

Hi guys,
Just a couple small updates from me:

Added the sprite trails feature to Jaleco Megasystem 1, this effect can be seen on the Jaleco logo on P-47 - The Phantom Fighter (romset p47).  Big thanks to Haze for figuring out how that works.  (He figured it out several years ago, I just forgot to add it.., oops!)

Replaced libpng with libspng after a png was found to not only cause fbneo to crash, it caused some random code within fbneo to run as well, before crashing.  o.O  Yikes.  To libpng's credit: sometimes it didn't crash, but gave us the png graphics with distorted / weird lines in it.  Let's not take any chances here..

Fixed a bug in Athena, Ikari Warriors and Victory Road (Ikari Warriors 2), the sound tempo was running a little too fast, thanks to Peter Venkman for letting us know

Please let us know if any sorta issues arise from the changeover, so they can be fixed!

Super big thanks:
barbudreadmon, he's currently on a mission to update all the arcade romsets, add missing clones, and such!
Gab75, for always keeping the console / home computer games up to date & adding new stuff!
Bug reporters, the highest regarded of FBN fans!  Thanks for taking the time to make FBNeo better!

best regards,

The new "libspng" renderer code seems to work very well... thanks a lot for your work!
