Homebrew RELEASE pFBA: final burn alpha

[Connorsdad]

I'm having a hell of a time getting pFBA to recognize my Genesis ROMs. I have the full no-intro romset for Genesis and I've tried putting them in the "roms" folder with no success. I've also tried putting them in /switch/pfba/roms/megadrive with no success. I've tried unzipping them with no success. I've tried leaving them zipped with no success. They are in .md format. They are named properly. But they just don't work.

Can I get some help?

Post the name of a rom you're using here including the file extension, exactly as it is in your folder and we can see if it's named correctly.

First, the folder is "/switch/pfba/megadriv" (like FBA). And you need the FBA megadrive ROMs.

for 1.55 they should be placed in pfba/megadriv in zip format with the proper names

I have the .42 set currently and the emulator appears to work great as a whole I presume the joycons are not mapped correctly for those particular games? Also though if I choose just sg1000 the emulator just freezes if I use SXOS I have to hard reset if I load hetake from boot other payload I can still use the home button and carry on. Is there are bios rom I could be missing?

Great emulator btw just a few niggles

Earlier version of pfba with the seperate system folders will work with previews using prefix such as md_

The latest version of pfba needs to have the prefix removed to show the previews but this creates a problem with some games because the same game is available on multiple systems, once you remove the prefix you're left with romname.png

Eg
2020bb.png (Neo geo arcade preview)
md_2020bb.png (mega drive preview)

You can't remove the prefix because the file name is already taken for the arcade version.

Dev has said this is fixed in the nest release.

Guess that / in (+/-) means OR, not AND, right?
Great update. Thank you so much.

Yes, OR ! Those changes were needed for single joycon mode, but also because unibos (neogeo) use start+coins for its menu.

Can't wait to get home to test it

Gave 1.57 a quick test.

First off the single/double joycon support is great, cannot fault it. However, I'm getting sound issues consistently with MegaDrive/Master System games (FW 5.1, Using SX OS 1.2). Reverted back to pFBA 1.55 just to make sure and the issue went away

Rotation while docked been fixed?
