Hi guys, sorry for they delay on the vita release, will come very soon !

In the meantime, I added a 1.52 vita release to
https://www.github.com/cpasjuste/pfba/releases

It already has some changes in it from the forthcoming 1.54 release. Seems to work pretty well for now.

I also updated vitadb to point to this release, since my mod version is no longer needed. All my changes are now already in the official version.

As soon as 1.54 is out, I will update VitaDB, too.

Out of curiosity,what makes Final Burn Alpha different from the MAME emulator?

 

[rsn8887]

Some arcade games run faster in FBA. And on Vita there are some advanced features such as shader effects, control rotation for holding Vita sideways, etc.

Hi What about sega system 16 emulation speed in 1.52 (or in the upcoming 1.54)?

Thanks

 

[rsn8887]

I think it is still unplayable slow, same as in Retroarch. That's why I ported Cannonball.

Is it feasible for https://github.com/Cpasjuste/pfba to use https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/vitaGL ? Maybe it help speed up Street Fighter III ?

No, pfba already use hw acceleration.

Possible to use xbr_2x_noblend ? Or technically impossible due vita hardware . https://github.com/Cpasjuste/libcro...7f92662#diff-aa936a8e630c636ded963d6c5327fc1b

@cpasjuste thanks for the great emulator !
I have one question tho - are there any plans to improve the sound on the vita as well?
One of my favourite arcade games is Super Hang-On, unfortunately (apart from the broken sound), the controls seem to be kinda fuzzy.
Steering works for like 5 seconds, then left and right is inverted for some reason oO

I realy hope this can be fixed, because that's the best game ever created!

Hi...
I really don't know why but I can't use "select + button" when I'm in game...
Like SELECT + SQUARE for going in Service Mode for example. There's only SELECT+START who's OK...
Is there a way to fix this ?
Thanks a lot...

Thanks for the latest update 1.54. Love this emulator, it's what I turn my Vita on for

whenever I try to load cps3 roms I get "driver init fail" any one else experience this?

@cpasjuste tremendous job with porting pFBA and also maintaining it. Couple of questions / requests:

1) A favourites feature with a default display favourites would be amazing. There are so many games supported and we all have say 10-50 favourites so being able to select favourites and then jump to the favourites view as default would be amazing.

2) Hardware acceleration - I presume the Vita CPU is overclocked when pFBA is running?

Keep up the good work!

Hi, i finally managed to fix all (?) remaining bugs/crash for the fba 0.2.97.43 update and console prefix crap. I hope you'll enjoy
You can download it here : https://github.com/Cpasjuste/pfba/releases and here is the (basic) pFBA 1.55 changelog :

• update to FBA 0.2.97.43
• update/fix save states and nvram support (you NEED to delete old folders : "config" and "saves" to prevent crashes)
• remove m68k cyclone asm core support
• switch: disable single joycon support for now
• fix console roms, no prefix needed anymore, roms need to be in their respective directories :
  • pfba/megadriv
  • pfba/gamegear
  • pfba/sms
  • pfba/coleco
  • pfba/msx
  • pfba/sg1000
  • pfba/pce
  • pfba/tg16
  • pfba/sgx
