Homebrew RELEASE pFBA: final burn alpha

[skydancer93]

Even started fresh and it STILL won’t detect my ROMS

 

[XC-3730C]

I have my games in the /Switch/pFBA/roms
folder, and can see the games with no issues.

What do you use?

@skydancer93 I also have it working on multiple SD cards, both arcade and console ROMs appear. I use a FAT32 SD card on FW3.0 booted through RajNX. Are your roms from an appropriate PFBA set? It looks for very specific roms so be sure they are correct, as that is most likely your issue.

Note that if it's not arcade roms, they go in a different folder. For example, ColecoVision would go in pfba/coleco. Info on that is in the 1.55 changelog.

My 256gb microSD is exFAT formatted, and has pFBA arcade games (no consoles or portable), as well as Switch games . I thought about formatting my card to FAT32, but I don't know how that will work with Switch games larger than 4GB.

What folders are needed for the roms supported? Are they only what is listed on the first page? What would the NeoGeo folder be?

NeoGeo games and BIOS must go to "roms" folder with others FBA games

Is there a BIOS for cps2? As I've mentioned previously I'm able to play any console game or arcade game except the cps2 one's, they give me "Drive init fail"

Hi, just released a new version (1.58) with minimal changes for now :

• try to fix docked mode (untested, thanks m4xw for the tips)

Can you do that for OpenBor ?

 

[Mobutu16]

It is a know bug for rotated screen games when in dock mode

Bug still there with new version. Sound works but no image in some arcade games

Has anyone noticed super long loading times?

First of all, I don't want to start a ExFAT / FAT32 / SXOS / Hekate war. I have multiple switches and SD cards, so I don't care, I just use what works best.

However, I am having ridiculous long loading times on big neogeo games for examples on Hekate 4.0 (FAT32) compared to SX OS (ExFAT). Same problem with pSNES, loading is way faster on ExFAT and SX OS compared to Hekate and FAT32. I noticed this problem is getting worse and worse over time as well.

Cpasjuste, or anyone else, did you experience that too? (I am using latest version of both pFBA and pSNES)

Any way to map inputs for msx?

 

[Tumbleweed]

Do any other games work? make sure to use FBA 0.2.97.43 roms.

Yup I was using the wrong romset, the console roms were working fine but the arcade ones needed to match exact the same version. My bad.

Thanks for the input!

U can use 0.197 mame roms, both are compatible.

Like my work? Offer me a beer!

@cpasjuste can you provide a different link for free beer. PP wants to charge me $3 just to send.

Re NEOGEO ROMS: neogeo.zip BIOS works fine, but uni-bios-33.zip BIOS shows a black screen. Any tips on using Unibios?

 

[Zer0w]

I was wondering will there ever be a way to play VIRTUA COP with an emulator, it's actually for Sega-AM2 but was wondering if there's a possibility?

First timer here on GBA, so i have my switch with sx os 1.9 currently and i had a few questions regarding the directory, location of the HBrew menu and pFBA installation and rom location. So first I tried to install Hbrew menu via root directory and then creating a switch folder and dropped pFBA files in there and hbrewmenu would not detect FBA. I then moved pFBA files to root directory of my sd card and it booted. now my question is i downloaded this: fba 0.2.97.43 romset one has arcade and one has console so where do the roms go
