FBA Neo Romset help?

[showstopper]

Hi all,

I am now looking at getting FBA Neo configured and I need a little guidance on the ROMs. The wiki says that 'ROM Version: Subset of latest MAME/HBMAME roms available' but also says 'Required ROM Version - FB Neo v0.2.97.44'. I am struggling to figure out the required version numbers. The latest MAME ROMs are 0.214, so do i just use clrmamepro to rebuild this romset with the 'FB Neo (NeoGeo only)' DAT file?

Thanks in advance.

To get a 100% complete FBNeo romset, you'll need to use clrmamepro with the following sources :

• latest MAME romset (0.214 indeed, should cover more than 95% of the set)
• homebrew/hacks from latest HBMAME romset (0.214 too)
• a few exceptions can be found from older FBNeo/FBAlpha romsets (there are around 20 dumps we never sync with MAME) and more recent MAME romsets (yet-to-release 0.215, i think some chips got redumped last week so there might be 4-5 files like this right now)

@barbudreadmon Thank you for this. For the HBMAME bit is there a list of the files that are required?

No, sorry, but apart from the few dkong hacks i added a few weeks ago (see https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/23549/donkey-kong-spooky-remix-in-retropie), i expect most of them to be also available from older FBNeo/FBAlpha romsets.
