+ T + released a new version of FBA-xxx Pro.

FBA-XXX Pro v1.10
=================

FBA-XXX Pro is a derivative build of FBA-XXX, the main purpose of which is to add support for the latest and most accurate ROMsets available to the emulation scene. A great many changes and additions have been made to the rather outdated sets supported by the original build, including new parents, new clones, new bootlegs, support for both encrypted and decrypted Neo-Geo sets, as well as the latest CPS and other set updates from MAME. Alot of new code has been added to improve the accuracy of the emulation, there are some minor tweaks and bugfixes to the emulator itself, and a new default skin (a modified version of the excellent Fighter skin by Duracelleur) is included.



Both Romcenter and ClrMAMEPro DATs can also be found in the package so please make use of them to ensure the ROMsets you have are the ones FBA-XXX Pro requires. And don't forget you'll also need the Neo-Geo bios set (neogeo.zip) in your ROMs folder.

Enjoy.

What's New?
===========

NOTE: You should delete your old FBA-XXX Pro savefile from the MS dashboard or the folder E:TDATAffff0504 before running this release.


- Replaced 'Auto Unibios' option with 'Auto Neo-Bios'. Can be set to MVS, AES, Debug, Universe, Off.

- The following sets have been added:
kof96pls

- Updated some ROMsets based on the latest information. (thanks to Ferchogtx and iq_132)

- Fixed extra button press when entering Diagnostics Mode.

- Fixed reversed controls on Black and White buttons.

- The following sets have been added:
jgokushi
hsf2
hsf2j

(XORs for these CPS2 sets are not yet available so for the time being they are non-working)

- Fixed dipswitches in msword. (bug from PC version)

- Fixed X-Arcade control configuration not saving.

- Cleaned up UI menus.

- Also I understand that the correct (non-fake) samsho5 M1 ROM is now available.



FAQs (Please Read)
==================

Why 'Pro'?
----------
FBA-XXX Pro is so called because it is primarily intended for those who are a little more serious about ROM collecting and/or emulation than perhaps the casual user. The newer ROM dumps required by many of Pro's supported sets can be more difficult to acquire than the older files used in FBA-XXX.


A ROMset is giving me errors but it works fine on another emulator, what's up?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FBA-XXX Pro sets use the newest available ROM dumps. Please use the DATs to find out which of the files in your set need updating.


Can I not just use my old sets with FBA-XXX Pro?
------------------------------------------------
Like FBA-XXX, Pro has the option to disable the CRC check on ROMs before loading. This means that providing the files in your set are named correctly you should be able to play from any combination of decrypted ROMs. However this completely defeats the point of using FBA-XXX Pro and this option has only really been left in for testing purposes.


What are all the new sets you say are supported?
------------------------------------------------
You can check the DATs or the included gamelist.txt for a list of all supported ROMsets.


Why can't I reset the game with L+R+White like in FBA-XXX?
------------------------------------------------------------------
Because some users found this combination too easy to press by accident. L+R+Start is the new ROM reset combination.


What are the other gamepad shortcuts?
-------------------------------------
Choose Show Help in the main menu to display listings of all in-game controls.


Why are the game names so long on the ROM list screen?
------------------------------------------------------
If you don't like it you can click the left thumbstick to switch between long and truncated names. FBA-XXX had this option too but Pro's long names are more complete.


Why isn't "XXXX Super Magic Ultra Plus Hack" supported?
-------------------------------------------------------
FBA-XXX Pro only supports hacks that are confirmed to come from genuine bootleg boards or cartridges. ROM-hacks are deliberately unsupported.


I can't find this ROM anywhere. Can you tell me where to get it?
----------------------------------------------------------------
No. So please don't ask.

History
=======

v1.09
-----
- Fixed incorrect kf2k2mp2 P2 ROM.

- Fixed corrupted GFX in ms5boot.

- Fixed sound in ms4boot.

- Fixed missed controller presses when navigating menus.

- Removed switch to hide clone sets from ROMlist. (for some games the only working sets are clones so this option is useless)

- All INI files are now saved to the emulator's TDATA folder.

- Updates to default skin.


v1.08a
------
- Re-added mslug5 encrypted M ROM. (a fake is now available with the correct CRC. This should suffice until the real one is released)

- The following sets have been added:
kf10thua
kf97plsa
kf2k4spl

- And the following PD games:
Frog Feast
Jonas Indiana and the Temple of Ra

- Fixed AES mode in nitd/nitdd

- Some other minor updates and corrections.

- Re-added the ROMlist counter by request and updated default skin to incorporate this.

- Fixed some irregularities in the DATs.


v1.07
-----
- Updated supported bootleg sets based on the latest information. (thanks to Ferchogtx)

- The following sets have been added:
ms4boot
ms5boot
kof2k1bl
kf2k1pls
kf2k1pla
kf2k2spr
kf2k2plb
kf2k3exa

- No more corrupted graphics in ms4plus, ms5plus, kf2k2mp, and kf2k2mp2.

- Removed unobtainable mslug5 M ROM. (game runs fine without it)

- Added encrypted M ROMs to decrypted C sets. (this is correct for these sets since ideally only the C ROMs should be decrypted)


v1.06
-----
- Added 2 new PD Neo-Geo games by blastar@gmx.net:
Codename - Blue Engel
NGEM2K

- Fixed kf2k3pcb bios ROM size.

- Fixed disabling shortcuts on attached controllers.

- Some minor name corrections.


v1.05
-----

- Updated newer Neo-Geo set names to match those in MAME v0.104. (see note below)

- Added the following new sets:
kf2k2mp
kf2k2mp2
samsh5sh
samsh5sn
kf2k3bla
kf2k3pl

- Updated supported Universe bios to v2.2.

- Fixed kof2002 'How to Play' screen GFX glitch. (by iq_132)

- Replaced old NeoPVC decryption code with tidier version. (by iq_132)

- Fixed dipswitch settings for all CPS1 games. Defaults now match MAME instead of everything being set to 'off'. (you will need to delete your old FBA-XXX Pro savegame for these changes to take effect)

- Fixed bug in which controllers 2,3,and 4 were not saving PPP & KKK button settings.

- Fixed Commands View menu bug.

- Added sub-folders to main roms/ directory. (just delete if you don't want to use them)


NOTE: Although FBA-XXX Pro's newer NG sets have been renamed to match those added to MAME, the required ROMs are not exactly the same. This is because some of the ROM dumps MAME is using in these sets are not the most correct.


v1.01
-----

- First official release build.
