Topic: FB Neo Bugs Reports

[Agozer]

Weird, maybe it really has something to do with FBN settings.

Agozer, thanks - I found the problem, for now you can change 2 settings to get rid of it until a fix is available (later today, probably)

Set:
Audio -> 4point 3rd order sample interpolation
and
Audio -> 4point 3rd order FM interpolation

These 2 settings give better audio quality and most likely won't cause any extra overhead unless you're using a late 90's era pc

Agozer,
The problem is fixed, thanks for finding this bug   (exe should be available about 30mins after I posted this)

To all:
Seriously, you guys are really making FBNeo great by taking the time to report stuff like this!   Thank you!

It's all thanks to you guys. Besides, the fact FBN is much more open than it's ever been helps a great deal.
Usually, bug reports would rain down right after a release. This should help mitigate this a lot.

Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 (rev 1.2): There are numerous graphical glitches during the fights in Attract Mode. The animations (and general "smoothness") are also very choppy. Seems fine in MAME.

EDIT: Mortal Kombat (rev 5.0) seems to suffer from the same choppiness. A running theme in Midway games?

[dink]

yes, the midway games have an issue w/the cpu where every other frame gets skipped.  It's unfortunate
Unlike everything else I can fix, this one is rather grimm.
Of course some day I'd like to get it fixed - on the bright side, last august (2019) we found out the Sega System 18 had some horrible video bugs, and to fix it required a complete re-working of the video code.  That was on my list of things "that probably will never get done", but, it was indeed fixed just last week.. so, who knows

Any luck with the cave section light dimmer issue in tmnt2..? - regards.

the_maq,
not sure I know about this one, where exactly is it happening? do you have a savestate for it?

Wouldnt it be better to disable detection of the MK games until they are actually playable?

It's uploaded on my 2nd last post, the previous page with the pcb video link - in the video the light dims down exactly at 9:51 seconds, hope this helps - regards

They are far from being unplayable

[dink]

the_maq, sorry about that, somehow I miseed your message.  I'll let you know as soon as a fix can be figured out.

X-men problem on stage 2: when the platform floor goes down there's no hydraulic sound effect on fbneo..? thought i should report it to compare and analyse - video of pcb: https://youtu.be/qt0j7mPBUB0?t=308 and mame https://youtu.be/VgF_VMQ19aA?t=315

[dink]

the_maq, when I load your state and the platform goes down it sounds just like the pcb and mame.

[dink]

the_maq, the k054539 soundchip support a reverb/delay-ish effect which is emulated completely wrong, one of these days I'd like to rewrite it (or rework it) into working order.  though it isn't a very high priority
