Final Burn Neo > FBN Discussion
Help for FBN Ubuntu linux 20.04
akafox:
okay so..I compiled FBN just fine ..games work ect...
but I have some questions..
1. what are all the command line switches?
2. How do I create a base config .ini file?
3. is there a way to do multi-slot on the linux version?
4. how do I change the default bios for neogeo?
5. Is there a menu beyond the -menu tag (like the windows version)?
6. Are all features from the windows version available for linux in this version?
I have used FBA for years so I am familiar with the set up and things...but never tried it on linux without WINE before (maybe I should try beer instead? ;p )
Sorry for the many questions...but i am sure there will be more to come :P Glad that FBN is native linux now! :D
And thank you for all your hard work!

1)
-cd
Run a neogeo CD image
-joy
Enable joysticks
-menu
-novsync
disable vsync
-integerscale
force integer scaling (so e.g. always make sure that the rendering is stretched by a full amount to stop scaling artifacts)
-fullscreen
run fullscreen
-dat
generate dat files
-autosave
automatically save/load game state on exit
-nearest
use nearest neighbour filtering
-linear
use linear filtering
-best
use the SDL2 "best" filtering
2) This should be generated on first run. It will put it wherever SDL_GetPrefPath thinks is the best place. You may need to search for fb*.ini to find it
3) not currently
4) Editing the INI is the only way so far
5) press tab during gameplay, although this is far from finished (and won't be until the winter I expect!)
6) not yet, but I am planning on adding more

okay found it..now I am understanding my "problem" with changes being made not working...

okay. I will point out when I try to load the neogeo rom (i.e. fbneo neogeo at the terminal) it segfaults. On the windows version it brings up the menu... (but I guess just like you said!)

that was a pain in the tail...but I got it working... (my findings in case anyone is interested...)

okay I had the opengl mode on..so it was not showing. It looked like it was just blanking the creen and pausing (perfection takes time it is understandable!)

Hey no rush! I had to ask just in case I was missing something. Again thank you for your hard work! :)
AND...I must confess my dumbness... I clicked to load the binary...instead of running it from the terminal like a smart fox would. Sorry I would have saved you some time in your life *FACEPAWS* ...I'll just go sit over under that sign that says DUH! :biggrin: (but it is great to not have to run fbn without wine or retroarch if I need to!)
Kev:
When you say you were using opengl, do you mean you were setting the fbn output to use the opengl renderer or did you just use the defaul sdl2 renderer (this is stuff set in the ini). Not sure why the tab menu is not working for you if the -menu menu is working.

Not sure? Not sure how to change sdl2 render. I did compile the sdl2 version.. in the fbneo.ini file I changed
// video mode 0 = standard SDL 1= (very expiermental) opengl
nVidSelect 0
to
// video mode 0 = standard SDL 1= (very expiermental) opengl
nVidSelect 1
Or is that it? (like you said...)
I will try a "standard sdl compile (i.e. not a SDL2 compile) I will point out that I do have some graphical problems with this machine running games and such (not any in FBN...just other type games). So I will try on another machine as well just to make sure.
the same thing happens on my other machine as well...
the make sdl compiled without error. However when trying to run from the terminal I get:
~/FBNeo$ ./fbneo menu
FBNeo v0.2.97.44
Loading config from fbneo.ini
Loading config from fbneo.ini
menu is not supported by FinalBurn Neo.
Doing exit cleanup
no error no nothing....it doesn't even run. Games will run without problem. However the TAB key seems not to work at all...
