well, that f6 message is ancient history, it probably doesn't even work with current mame(I'm guessing).  I'm afraid I can't answer any questions about the libretro version of fbneo, I just don't know.

I understand.

I'm a RetroArch user on Linux, I've never used the standalone. I was just going to ask you if it was possible to put the description and enable/disable the cheats, and I see the cheat.dat.

:turbofrc:60000000:00000:00000000:00000000:Turn off cheats with F6 at the start of each level!

It has it, but in RetroArch I don't see it, I also don't get an option to enable/disable cheats. It would be very useful to have those options in the core.

Why are there games that have cheats in the parent and apply to all, and others that have cheats by clone?

It works perfectly. Thank you very much!

I have a doubt, when I activate the cheat, close and start the game, it starts doing check scans, fails and does not load the game. Is this normal?

You're welcome! :)

Well, arcade games (especially arcade) do hardware tests at startup. When cheats are active, they modify locations in ram and/or rom, so when the tests of the game run, the game thinks ram or rom is bad.  This is normal and really the only way around it is to only enable the cheats after the game has booted up.
Some games need special attention when using cheats, for example "Turbo Force" needs the cheats to be turned off at the end of each level, or it will get stuck.

FBN Development / Re: FB Neo Bugs Reports
« Last post by barbudreadmon on September 24, 2023, 03:26:10 AM »
Thanks for the report.

I added hiscore support for this game back in 2021, and removed it later after discovering that bug you mention, but it seems a contributor added it back.
For now you can play this game normally if you disable hiscore.

@dink i think there was a reason we decided to disable hiscore for this game instead of fixing that black screen, like maybe the hiscore.dat entry looked wrong ?
Edit: i found our earlier discussion about it, the entry in hiscore.dat seems to save game timers, which seems extremely fishy
Edit2: and that game actually doesn't need hiscore.dat support, they are already saved through nvram, i'll remove the hiscore flag again (with a note this time)

Hi  :cool:

I've launched Asteroids Deluxe (parent version) on the latest devbuild and while the games starts and the first screen with highscores etc appears normally but when I press start (I've set in to freeplay btw) the screen turn completely black

I can hear the sound firing etc so that the game seems to be in progress but the screen is pitch black , nothing displayed

I remember it running without issues when I played it last time , which was a few months before I believe

I have the correct romset I think

Best regards  :wink:

Get latest build from here:

https://github.com/finalburnneo/FBNeo/releases/tag/latest


So generate a Arcade DAT and check your romset with a rommanager, like romcenter.
10
The thing i would ask - does the rom set match the version of FB Alpha you have?

I really don't know say about this... I have no idea.

Just curious, why don't use FB Neo instead?  It adds some nice features like rewind and fixes a lot of bugs, for example with Mortal Kombat and other midway games - they only run at 30fps in FB Alpha....  Also the current FBNeo fullset is easy to get (hint, google fbneo archive.org)

best regards,
- dink

Im already have FB Neo (i use only for Nei Gao CD Games).

This Emulator recognize all ROM Set? Im doing tests here now.
