Topic: How can I change the FBA looks and change the version of it?

[KingHanco]

I download the FB Alpha Plus! [U9] 0.2.94.98.

It look really cool that way.

I want to know how to do that on the FB Alpha 0.2.94.98 the one that I have.

All I want to do is to change the skins and change the version of it.

I also want to put this. "This FBA version have been re-compile by Mitchell Hancock" on the bottom of the info on the screen.

Maybe next year I can release it with 2001 games driver as well.

You wont be the only one that released a version of FBA with newer games added . I could myself But I do that with Mame anyway .

Change version:
src/burn/version.h

Change bitmaps and icon:
src\BURNER\resource

[James33]

You beat me I was checking where that was lol .

[KingHanco]

Change version:
src/burn/version.h

// Version number, written as  vV.V.BB  or  vV.V.BBaa
// (0xVVBBpp, in BCD notation)

#define VER_MAJOR 0
#define VER_MINOR 2
#define VER_BETA 94
#define VER_ALPHA 98

#define BURN_VERSION (VER_MAJOR * 0x100000) + (VER_MINOR * 0x010000) + (((VER_BETA / 10) * 0x001000) + ((VER_BETA % 10) * 0x000100)) + (((VER_ALPHA / 10) * 0x000010) + (VER_ALPHA % 10))

How to change this???

How can I change the name FB Alpha to Final Burn Alpha then.

[FerchogtX]

src\burner\title.h

there you can change the name, that is the place where i changed the FB Alpha Version [U9] and thisng like that...
On my opinion if you like to release a build, you must match the original emulator version, just cahnging your personal build version... but is just an opinion anyway XD
See ya!!!!

[KingHanco]

Here is what I have done so far.

Next going to try make some images.

[FerchogtX]

You learn fast man  
See ya!!!!
P.S- I suggest you to use Photoshop to make new images for emulator, it's better and faster

This better if spash is in black. It make it look like the arcade machine isn't plug in at all.
