Re: IQ's PGM WIP

I have a layman's question about playing Oriental Legend Super/Plus on FBA.... I have FBA version 0.2.97.3
It runs Martial Masters, KOV, Killing Blade etc just fine.  Oriental Legend Super won't run however.
I downloaded the oldsplus_source doc you posted in this thread -- but I have no clue what to do with it.  Where are the CPP files located?  I have the PGM BIOS in the ROM's folder, but I don't see anything inside it that is a CPP file.  Please help! 

EDIT:  NM, I downloaded FBA 0.2.97.5 and it runs.  Will Knights of Valour Super Heroes run on that version?

Why not download latest FBA version (the 0.2.97.20) which gots the latest updated PGM driver and can run games like Knights of Valor Super Heroes, Oriental Legend Super Plus, Espgaluda, etc...

The CPP Files are in fact drivers but can only be "used" with FB Alpha source and if you compile your own debug build...

Oh, I did download FBA 0.2.97.20, and none of my PGM games would run on it.  They don't show up when I scan ROMs.  Other than putting the PGM Bios in the ROMs folder, is there another step I'm missing?

Have you checked the "pgm" box in the system select? If so, then the odds are that your roms or bios files are not correct. Try showing games that are unavailable and trying to load one of the pgm ones you've got. FBA should tell you what is missing/wrong.

It says missing

ROM ddp3_bios.u37
ROM bios.u42

I downloaded PGM BIOS v.2.  If I scan the ROM's they don't show up.  If I try and load it anyway, as you suggested I get that error message (and then the ROM loads and I can play).  But after I play then it still won't show up in the menu, even if I rescan.

sometimes the rom names change between releases for example ddp3blk becomes ddpdojblk maybe thats why their not showing they must be named correctly for the FBA version your using

I think because I'm also missing bios u42 is why the ROM's won't show up in the newer FBAs.  I tried Googling but haven't found a PGM bios that has it yet...

Those are extra bios roms from some pcb games (DDPDOJ and thegladpcb). They aren't really needed. Try running martmast even though it shows it as unavailable. Make sure your bios is set Older or Newer (not the ones with no intro).

Martmast does run if I search through all the ROMs.  Is there any way to find the extra bios so that I can get it to show as available?  What's confusing is that it shows as available on the older FBA, but not the new versions.

i really dont think that not having the bios.u42 file would make your roms not show it would more likely make your roms not work
but anyway check your PM's

Missing a bios rom makes all of the clones not show. PGM games for sure will work without all of the bios roms.
