Stifu, geese howard, Neildark,
always thanks for your support via attentio & kind words - and of course, bug reports!

Neildark,
There's some bugs with recording with the new Neo Geo CDz speedloader, please avoid recording with the new feature enabled for now - I'll announce it here when it's fixed - I hope to have it fixed very soon, probably 1-3 days at the most

best regards,
- dink

Hio friends & fans of FBNeo,
Neo Geo CD update - again!

A bunch of games were added to the cd list, thanks to NeilDark and littlebear!
NeoCDz game list enhancement: added sorting, type-to-find, fixed a bunch of little bugs, speed up the initial listing a tiny bit

Emulation: fixed slow loading with Street Hoop/Dunk Dream, cd irq's were getting skipped when lots of raster irq's were enabled - now fixed without a hack

Recordings (aka Replay -> Record input) should be OK now!

best regards,
- dink

dink, can you add CHD file support?
Now with NeoCD speedloader feature, FBneo is my main emu in retropie...thanks a lot!

[dink]

geese howard, great, glad you like it!

Dink, can you add cps1, 2 and 3 in "generate dat file"?

It might be a better idea in the long term to add the "sourcefile" attribute to our datfile (sourcefile="d_cps1.cpp", ...) so that it can be sorted with 3rd party tools (i think datutil does that).

@dink not sure what would be the best way to achieve this, maybe modifying some existing macro from stdfunc.h to have a mean to retrieve __FILE__ ?

[dink]

geese howard, at some point - sure

barbudreadmon, will probably have to add that to every single BurnDriver struct, that sounds like a hell.  If you can find a better way, go for it, but please don't do what I just said.

best regards,

I was thinking that STD_ROM_FN used romset name as the argument and that we could add the following code to the macro :

Code: [Select]

const char* Name##Sourcefile()
{
return __FILE__;
}

It turns out my first assertion was wrong :/

The only other way i can think of would be to modify the driver structs indeed.

[barbudreadmon]

@dink actually, adding a new member to every single BurnDriver struct is not as bad as it seems (using sed), i have a wip that can produce those dat with the sourcefile attribute, should i go and commit it ?

I really don't like that idea, will have to think about it for a while...

It might be possible to modify gamelist.pl so that it builds a new header with a lookup table for this.
