i just don't understand why i try to reproduce recording files in different versions and they wouldn't work.
-
I'm sorry about this, it bothers me too - I personally had hundreds of game playthrough's that will only play on previous versions.. but, due to the massive amounts of changes the cpu & sound cores have undergone over the past several versions, keeping compatibility with the older versions is impossible :(
Recording from "power on" will maintain the best compatibility with newer versions, but, a few games won't sync up properly on replay with this due to random number generation at bootup based on time and such things.
best regards,

hey Dink give me some help here, there's got to be a way of doing this. what i want to do is to work on the last version of ggpo fba
wich seems to be v0.2.96.74 i download your own v0.2.96.74 and try to run a record file from fightcade there but the screen freezes and the program crashes. i had have this problem when some config is different so y copy all fc config files and change the name where is due but still the same happens, i tried this in the unicode and non unicode versions of v0.2.96.74 (don't really know if it matters) but the same happens, so i will have to suppose that though they have the same name theres some difference in the code that makes this record files different between them. I already tried to contact ponder to see if he can give me access to his code but since he didn't release it 10 years ago i have little hope he even will answer to my message. i have 2 options here. to have access to the code and try to see where this 2 versions differ and make them compatible or the last one is to treat the 2 diffrent .fr files as a black box and see if i can reverse ingineer the covertion from one to the other. Can you please help me in pointing what i can do to solve this problem?
