FB Alpha or FBA as it is commonly known is an emulator of arcade games, that is, it takes the program code, graphics data, etc., from an original arcade game and emulates the hardware to make the game run in it's original form. As far as the game is concerned it is running in it's original cabinet.

FB Alpha is an open-source project and it is programmed by a group of people known as the FBA Team. Over the years this has comprised of myself, Jan_Klaassen, KEV, LoopMaster, Mike Haggar, Hyper Yagami and Ayeye. FB Alpha is based on the original FinalBurn by Dave.

puNES is an emulator under development that works on Linux32/64 and Windows32/64. The SDL version, of course, needs of SDL libraries to run. Uncompress the zip/tar file in a subdirectory and use. The emulator, finally, supports compressed archives.

Changelog:

Quote:
(Windows) Fixed bug that allows the monitor turned off during a game session.
Added "Pause" shortcut.
Better support for the submappers in NES 2.0.
Fix for recognize correctly the CHR RAM size with the NES 2.0.
Fixed saving of the option 'Permit "Up + Down" and "Left + Right"...' in the configuration file.
Added two new palettes (Thanks to Firebrandx for his work http://www.firebrandx.com/nespalette.html).
Fixed the mirroring in the VRC2 mapper.
Added the full support for the RetroArch's shaders (https://github.com/libretro/common-shaders).
OpenGL version support ".glslp" and ".cgp" (linux version need that is istalled the nvidia-cg-toolkit package) shaders.
D3D9 version support only ".cgp" shaders. Then, based on experience made in these months of development, in D3D9 version many shader ".cgp" do not work (such as CRT-royale), it seems that this shaders has been developed for the OpenGL version.

Please help me choose between two smart tv boxes with gaming capabilities

Hello,

I'm having trouble choosing between two Android Smart TV Boxes to give my old TVs smart capabilities and also play some emulated consoles (not to mention native Android games and I also worry about the video playback performance).

One is called Cs918 and has a RK3188T processor Cortex A9 with Mali 400 GPU, 2 GB RAM and 8 GB internal memory.

The other has a 96-1488 MHz processor (it's advertised as a Cortex A9 but I suspect it is an Amlogic S805 Quad Core 1.5 GHz Cortex-A5). It has a Mali 450 GPU but only 1 GB RAM and 4 GB internal memory.

Both run Android 4.4.2.

Since upgrading the internal memory with an SD card is cheap, I think the GPU and RAM amount are the main differences (I'm not sure if the processors differ that much).

Does the Mali 450 GPU provide significant advantages compared to 400? With the tradeoff of 1 GB RAM less, will the box still be performatic?

PS: Hopefully I'm posting this in the right discussion forum. If not please advise. Thanks!

A new version of cemu released today, now to version 1.4.1

From the change log:

CPU: Added new instructions to recompiler: LWARX, STWCX, STWBRX, LHAUX, LHZUX, type 5, 6 & 7 for PSQ_L and type 5, 6 & 7 for PSQ_ST, DCBZ, ADDC, MFCR, FDIV, FADD, PS_SUB, PS_NEG.
CPU: Improved handling of XMM registers in recompiler. Drastically reducing the number of load/store operations when not enough registers are available.
CPU: Added SUBFME to interpreter.

coreinit: New API __ghs_mtx_init(), __ghs_mtx_dst(), __ghs_mtx_lock(), __ghs_mtx_unlock(), OSSleepThread()
coreinit: Added weak-symbol 'environ'

RPL: Added support for SDA and SDA2

fsa: Asynchronous file operations now support sending the result via message queue (instead of callback)

GX2: Added vertex data cache (cache vertex data in GPU memory instead of re-uploading it for every drawcall)
GX2: Fixed texture decoding for compressed textures with a size smaller than 16x16
GX2: Fixed AMD issue that occurred when glDrawBuffers() enables unused color attachment
GX2: Fixed AMD issue that occurred when glPrimitiveRestartIndexNV is used instead of glPrimitiveRestartIndex
GX2: Fixed AMD driver crash that could happen after shader compilation.
GX2: Fixed a multitude of issues when using Intel GPUs. Graphics are still horribly broken due to Intel's lacking OpenGL driver, but at least we can say we tried our best :)
GX2: Invalidate destination texture in cache after GX2SurfaceCopy()

vpad: Clamp left and right stick to length 1.0

### New in public release ###

general: CEMU now displays which GPU is used in the titlebar.

Please Help issues with Mame on Android TV - Kodi

Hi,

I'm new here and new to emulators and Roms, so dont be too hard on me ha ha.

So to give you as much info as I can, I have an M8 Android Media box and have been running Kodi/XBMC for some time. I recently discovered its abiltity to Play Roms and I am very excited. I have looked at some tutorials and I managed to get the Snes Roms working fine by downloading the Snes9x Emulator in the Google play store, adding the Kodi App Rom collection Browser. Kodi then sees the emulator on setup and I linked the rom path to a folder on a 8GB SD card, all worked fine and I was chuffed.

However when it came to the Mame files it was a different story. After researching on the internet best Android emulators the names that came up were MAME4droid and Retro arch so once again I downloaded these in the google play store, added the Mame zip files to the SD card (I kept them zipped) linked the path, however this time Kodi did not recognise MAME4droid as the emulator, only retro arch (2 versions) I have tried both and neither work. I have also been unable to sc$#@! any artwork for some reason.

It has recognised the file path as the list of all the MAMEzip files I have is on the screen in the Rom browser collection, but when I click on a title the screen goes black for a second and then returns to the list of games. I really dont know how to fix this. I have tried both Retroarch emulators neither seem to work. I have no idea why Kodi (Rom collection) wont recognise MAME4droid emulator.

I would really appreciate any help from anyone on here would love to be able to enjoy the arcade games I played as a kid, Final fight, Pang. Street Fighter. I know you can play these on the SNES and |Mega drive but doesnt feel the same.

Thanks guys hope to here from you soon.

Hey I'm in dire search of a fix for my issue's with N-ragev2 2.3, having to deal with the Z Axis in the L-R triggers.
Playing Zelda oot you are unable to hold target and shield with those triggers unless using "Xinput" built in N-rage,
the problem is Xinput overrides the Deadzone and Stick range to some unplayable value.
Which bring me he to see if there is a fix to the Z-axis problem or just another plugin I have missed. I've done some research without any luck on a good fix, would be awesome to get some feed back.

I am using the latest 0.7a version of demul. But when I go to the control config screen, I can't seem to configure the controls at all. I click on a button on the screen, and it fills in some incomplete joystick axis info. I push buttons on the joystick and there is no change. I even tried to change the "coin" insertion key to another key on the keyboard, but the key doesn't show up on the screen. I must be doing something fundamentally wrong that I can't even change the coin key. Please help.

Glide64 2.0.0.5 not loading textures in Project64 2.2.0.3

Woo lord.

Okay, I haven't played an N64 game in ages and got it in my head I needed to play some No Mercy. Grabbed a couple of texture packs, thought Glide looked relatively simple- HAH.

I'm on a Windows 10 PC, 64 bit, running Project64 2.2.0.3, with Glide64 2.0.0.5. Nothing but problems so far. It doesn't even attempt to load textures. It dumps them fine, but no load. Tried some instrux in a tutorial here about where to put the textures (I have them in Project64 2.2/Textures/WWF No Mercy/), and I've had them in about 70,000 other places as well, but if there's a load notification, I haven't seen it, and when I go in, I've checked all the wrestlers, no hi res textures anywhere. (Currently trying to load a Mortal Kombat set.)

Additionally I have 2 versions of N-Rage - 2.3c and "For PJ64" 2.4.0.4 - and no matter what, whether I have the plugin or the emulator handle the .mpk files that came with it, no go. If I have the plugin handle it, it says the file is the wrong size and might be damaged, and doesn't load it, and the game acts like there is no save there.

I've been beating my head against the wall for the better part of the last 24 hours trying to figure all of this out. I can't seem to find anything online indicating that I'm doing anything wrong or that anyone else is having the problems I am, and I have no idea what the heck could be wrong. Any assistance would be greatly, greatly appreciated. I used to run a fantasy efed for 7 years off of the Smackdown/2kX series, and then for about a year off of M****ie's Wrestling Encore games, and now I'm thinking about transferring the fed characters into No Mercy for the hell of it, but if I can't get mods to work, seems like kind of a moot point.

Thanks so much!


EDIT: I have no idea what changed, but right after I posted this, it cached all of the textures into a .dat file located in Textures/cache/. However, it still doesn't seem to be actually loading them in- I can't locate any of the textures on any of the in-game characters and I tried creating a character and couldn't find them, either. Weird.



EDIT 2: Found a lil more info, ends up the textures aren't named correctly, so they aren't replacing anything. Found out by dumping a few textures and editing one, and boom, worked like a charm. Still have the issues with the N-Rage save bit, but at least it's something! Thanks!

Development Environment for Building Project64

Does anyone know if there are any official/unofficial instructions available for compiling Project64 from source? Specifically I need to be able to compile the NRage plugin in relation to the Hey You, Pikachu! HLE Implementation Project. (Any developers interested in helping with this would be greatly appreciated as well, we have ulao from BlissBox helping on the hardware side)

I noticed that there are Visual C++ project files for 2008, does anyone know how to get it up and running on 2013 or 2015 community edition? I haven't done C++ in a few years, so I'm a bit rusty on build configurations, so if there's a newb-friendly tutorial, I'd greatly appreciate it.
