Here's a new test exe :)

- new drivers finished! (Ring King / King of Boxer, Dead Angle, Legionnaire, Heated Barrel, etc.)
- lots of new fixes

see incl. whatsnew.html for more info!

Thanks a lot! The FB Neo becomes better and better! ;)

PS: I presume that the System 24 games are still in "alpha stage"... in other words, it's too early for test them.

Ah, sure... my Pre-Scale setting. The older test version was also saving the "manually select RGB preset", which is great! You guys should keep that! 

and.... CHEERS!

Bad Dude,
We didn't change anything related to saving settings, but maybe a certain bug has appeared out of nowhere (it happens..).
Could you please attach a copy of your config/fbn.ini and tell me which manual rgb preset/setting is not being saved?

best regards,

FB fix news / work in progress:

Xexex, finally fixed the line 0-6 scrolling issue bug, which is apparent in level 3 and the game's ending.  It's hardly noticeable - but something that bothered me and was quite a challenge to fix, too!  I won't even go into how many attempts were made over the past few years to try to fix it...  :P

Hiscore System,
The cpu interface to the highscore system has been reworked, big thanks to iq_132!  This will make the highscore system about 1000x more reliable in the longrun.

I will post a new exe after I am confident that all of the little "quirks" have been worked out.

best regards,

It's possible to have support for the bloxeedc (Bloxeed in english) rom? I suppose the driver is the same as bloxeed... ;)

I'll put some gif to comemorate that, but dink edited my last post, so... is better not.
Hey dear Dink  :cool: Here's the attachment that you request from me! I'm using the "small faint RGB mask"
Thank you, god bless!

You suppose wrongly :) The game you speak of runs on Sega System C hardware totally different driver.

@dink good job bigman!!, although looking at pic two you'd be forgiven for thinking it was actually correct beforehand.

Thanks guys!!
Thanks to gab75 for finding issues, now its almost impossible to tell the difference between emulation and pcb! (there's one scene left when the ending explosion fades out where you can tell..  I shall work on that tomorrow though.)

Thanks to iq_132 for help with simplifiying some ugly code :)
