      @matchaman It seems so as in the changes sync with newer mame roms is mentioned.
      Someone will probably create a dedicated .DAT.

        Is there any change to the ROMset whatsoever?

        Why ask ? There are changes with EVERY new release.

        Just finished updating lr-fbalpha with the new codebase, let me know if you find issues.
        PS : i didn't add the new dats to the github repo yet.

              @barbudreadmon Installed .43 today and played some games. No issues so far.
              Only noticed that "the end" still has very low sound (compared to original machine and lr-mame2003). That game has sound effects + some "continuous beating" background music (reminds me of "jaws" soundtrack when the shark comes). Can this be fixed ?

                Improved DonPachi and DoDonPachi timing to respond to inputs in 2 frames instead of 4 [dink]

                  This improvement was actually included in lr-fbalpha a month ago.

                    I can change settings by holding START in-game, but I don't know where they are saving...

                    Any ideas?

                      @spartan All i can say is that the core is working properly.

                            @spartan i'm not sure what you are complaining about, at first i thought you were complaining about core options not being saved/loaded properly, but actually they do ? At the very least they do for me, and anyway it's not something performed by the core.

                            You are only complaining about one specific dipswitch doing nothing ? Well, there are some dipswitches that do nothing in fba, especially in cps1/cps2 games, the "flip screen" one is another example. Could you explain to me the expected behavior of this "demo sound" dipswitch ?

                            Edit : nvm, it seems some dipswitches in cps1/cps2 are indeed acting weird, it's probably related to https://github.com/libretro/fbalpha/issues/185 again. To be honest i don't think i'll fix it, the first time i worked on this i severely broke the core for a few dipswitches that seemed totally useless.

                              @barbudreadmon "Demo Sound" switch was working fine on FBA 0.2.97.42 , it allows to play background music and SFX on the classic Street Fighter intro.

                                    Is there anything special I need to do to get this to update in Retropie? I just updated lr-fbalpha from source, everything seemed to run fine but it still shows v0.2.97.42 even after a reboot.

                                      @semisolidwhale if you updated from source you should get .43.
                                      I’d suggest to retry, first updating retropie setup script and then lr-fba from source.

                                        @udb23 the binaries should be .43 also. Built last week or so.

                                          For information, I just did a full update, and lr-fbalpha is still in 0.2.97.42.
                                          That said, it is for testing, I'm not in a rush to replace my FBA ROMs again :)

                                          Edit : My Bad here !
                                          Package description and update scripts indicate 0.2.97.42, but the retroarch menu tells 0.2.97.43 after update. It's just a description issue IMHO.

                                          Second edit : I won't open a topic for that, but it seems the /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/libretrocores/lr-81.sh was partially edited on windows and has bad new line characters : here is what I get when launching retropie_setup.sh :
