Hello
I am unable to use the command line options to output the dats/XML.
I've tried it for quiet a while now on several releases, just gave it a go on Windows.x64_2022-02-17_ba4b76d.
I just don't seem to output anything to stdout. Also the first time you run it is starts the UI.
I wanted to be able to automate downloading the nightly builds and extracting the dats without any intervention.
I'd appreciate any help please?
Cheers
Sam

It outputs it to stdout, try:
fbneo -listinfo > info.dat
best regards,

Dink thanks for that.
I was testing without "> out.txt" expecting to see output, I'm sure I tried it that way, but maybe not. Thanks
I've worked out how to stop the UI coming up, if anyone's interested.
Just have "config/fbneo64.ini" containing:
nIniVersion 0x7FFFFF
bSkipStartupCheck 1
Cheers

This will generate all the dats in Windows cmd starting with just the exe and no UI is started:
mkdir config
echo nIniVersion 0x7FFFFF > config\fbneo64.ini
echo bSkipStartupCheck 1 >> config\fbneo64.ini
fbneo64.exe -listinfo > "Arcade.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfocolecoonly > "ColecoVision.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfochannelfonly > "Fairchild Channel F.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfofdsonly > "FDS.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfoggonly > "Game Gear.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfosmsonly > "Master System.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfomdonly > "Megadrive.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfomsxonly > "MSX 1.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfongponly > "Neo Geo Pocket.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfonesonly > "NES.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfopceonly > "PC-Engine.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfosg1000only > "Sega SG-1000.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfosgxonly > "SuprGrafx.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfotg16only > "TurboGrafx 16.xml"
fbneo64.exe -listinfospectrumonly > "ZX Spectrum.xml"
Just watch out for these 2:
gamegear -> gg
megadrive -> md
Cheers
