Can't find "lr-fba-next" in setup script

Also just to clarify the reason for the renaming. They were renamed to reflect the upstream code changes from libretro/retroarch

Thanks for the clarification, I searched for "lr-fbalpha" on google and I only got a few hits. So I thought its some old unused emulator. Got many hits when searching for "lr-fba-next" though.

I used the wiki, but it still uses the name lr-fba-next.

I build a romset with clrmamepro, and used a FBA "0.2.97.38" DAT file on a 0.78 MAME romset, but it doesn't work. Do I have to use a different MAME romset as source?

0.2.97.39 - but 0.2.97.38 works from my testing mostly - you can't build it from just a 0.78 romset though

On this wiki https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Managing-ROMs it says to use fba 0.2.97.38 for lr-fba-next ( lr-fbalpha now ) so I think I must use that DAT file. But I probably have to use a 0.173 MAME romset as source.

When I build my fba 0.2.97.38 romset of a 0.78 MAME romset, clrmamepro didn't gave me any errors. But apparently it can still go wrong. I will try to rebuild it of a 0.173 MAME romset.

Thanks!

I have an odd issue after the updates, I have a third emulator option in my run command menu that's called lr-fbalpha2012lpha. It doesn't seem to link to any real emulator, cause all games just dont load. Any idea on how to remove that option as it's the first option for all FBA games?

edit /opt/retropie/configs/fba/emulators.cfg

it might be the renames colliding (due to lr-fba being part of the longer lr-fba-next). I will have to have a think how to resolve this. Thanks for the feedback.

You can select lr-fbalpha as default emulator from the runcommand menu. You can also remove the new emulator by using the RetroPie Setup Script.

@PolluxNL
Can't remove it since it's not a real emulator. Not a big deal, I've changed the default already. It only too me 30 mins to find out why half my arcade games just stopped working with the name change and all.

I think you mean /opt/retropie/configs/fba/emulators.cfg

BuZz

@PolluxNL Yep. Edited.

I believe I have resolved this issue for people updating - but those already with a broken fba/emulators.cfg - can delete the config, and re-install the emulators again which will restore it (same for the arcade/emulators.cfg if that is being used)
