Hello,
I try to install the Emulator in my switch. But it make huge problems. I downloaded the newest Version and i able to play Sega Games. But neogeo Games Not working. I think i havent a bios but dont know in which folder i must copy the bios and the Roms.

Is there anyone who can help me. My main problem is the bios and further the rom set. Which romset i Need?

Please give me Support.

Sorry for my bad Englisch but my first language is German. Thanks at all...

Neogeo games and the neogeo bios zip goes into a folder simply called "roms". And you need romset "0.2.97.43"

Hello Purple,

I am in Office at the Moment. I will try it later, when i am at home.

Can i place the bios in Version 3.3 from unibios website and rename it to neogeo.zip in the rom folder? Or waht is the correct name that i need?
The Roms must i took in the same folder?

do i need a spezial Version of the romset for the Switch console? Or can i download anything, maybe for a other emulator?

Thanks for your help...

Hi !

Finally, updated pFBA to use OpenGL : https://github.com/Cpasjuste/pfba/releases
  • use OpenGL for rendering, which allow some nicer ui effects, and of course, more power (thanks armada, fincs, subv... for theire work on mesa/nouveau)
  • point filtering can now be used in any rendering size
  • add a few libretro shaders (retro-v2, scanlines, pixellate, crt easymode, crt geom, sharp bilinear, sharp bilinear scanlines, sabr v3, xbrz, supereagle). Note that some shader will work better in integer scaling (2x, 3x), and some will have a better effect with linear filtering (sharp bilinear). Also, some are very intensive (crt geom, sabr, xbrz) and may not work fullspeed in some emulators (pSNES).
  • add fps counter option
thanks for the update. It works fine and all the filters are cool!

But where is the single joycon option? have you deleted it by mistake? or what is the reason?

edit: forget it. Im so stupid. XDDD the option is there as always!

thank you so mutch @ Purple, you made my day! And the the other person well what should I say, i dont know. Except insolence maybe...

Bye

Thanks again for the awesome emulator! I don't know if it's known but for at least CPS1, CPS2, CPS3, between 5-10mins the sound starts acting up.... It's slower, garbled, mess. I'll try other system too when I get a chance. Will try and see if it happens on your pSNES also, but have played pSNES about 30mins burst multiple times with no issues. Will report findings of other instances when I can.

Sorry in advance if this question has been asked before. Does this emulator support 4 players with JoyCon each, if so how easy is it to set up.

Ok let me ask i know sometimes with an update to the emulator the romset changes, did the romset change for 2.0 or is it still 0.2.97.43, cause I have it all set up previews and all, just a small question.

I have a few issues if anyone can help me

My genesis games don't come up on game selection. What format are genesis games supposed to be in. Mine are .bin format. And I put the .bin into a zip.

I have unibios and put that in neogeo.zip as the only file there is that the correct way to do it. I tried king of fighters 98 and it runs however the graphics are garbled.

You have to use the right ROM set and then it will work (Hint: The *.zip files have special names otherwise they wont work)
You can find all needed informations in this thread!

I understand previews folder is for screenshots. What about the titles folder. I have a full set of title images but not sure if I should bother to move them over as I can only see room on the menu for previews and nothing for titles.

Still having issues for NeoGeo games just have graphical issues and I can't see most of the effects. I have downloaded a final burn alpha Romset yet I'm still having issues

clout said, friend, I have all the pfba roms, neo-geo, megadrive, msx, all, and this emulator is very good ,,, maybe you do not know how to use it ,,, learn as everyone.
@cpasjuste very good amigo pfba
As I understood it, you have to rename the roms so that they have the same name as in the pfba list. This is such an awkward effort that the emulator is useless for me.
Not to mention that you can't play hacks and translations at all, for example

Friend @clout, I do not change any name and I have more than 10,000 roms without editing name, learn and make mistakes to be able to learn.

That has nothing to do with cpasjuste . The work he does is great. PSNES is excellent because it is not dependent on this idiotic database. I've been using emulators since 1999 but I've never used anything as awkward as this before.

EDIT: Even if you rename it the roms dont show up ... I give it up
