NeoGeo games folder nolonger working

[UberLumby]

I updated retropie the first time in awhile and for some reason my whole neogeo setup won't load games. It says I'm missing files but that's odd because I used to be able to play all of these games flawlessly. I read something about how neogeo merged into the arcade folder but I'm honestly just confused. What changed with neogeo? It doesn't help I can't fully read the screen since I'm on a CRT so I'm sorry I'm doing exactly what it says not to do at the bottom

@UberLumby It was the romset I guess it became out of date or not accurate to the AES neogeo but yeah it's the romset

I guess it became out of date

It didn't, that bios with crc 0x91b64be3 has been part of the neogeo romset for 2 decades, it's the default neogeo bios (MVS Asia/Europe ver. 6), its presence has always been mandatory in a normal neogeo romset. My guess is that you deleted that bios and put another one (AES or unibios) in its stead, it's a known trick to force another bios in some arcade emulators (it's the only way for pifba iirc), FBNeo doesn't accept that trick though because it has proper means to change bios through core options, and it requires that bios to be present as a fallback if the alternate bios you select in core options isn't available.
