        Sorry for being so vague.
        I'm filtering my roms into folders based on Category and Bootlegs and so on.
        FB neo 0.2.97.44 Built from source 06.21 Windows Gui reports
        "froggrs (Clone of frogger)" when it should be listed as "froggrs (bootleg on Scramble hardware)"

        But maybe you are only working on the libretro core and have nothing to do with the windows gui?

        Edit: I should probably report this here instead.

          @Rion i generally don't handle windows gui stuff indeed, and yeah it's always better to report issues on github, however i'm not too sure what could be the issue here, the name is properly set to "Frogger (Scramble hardware)" (as you saw in the dat file), and i believe that's the name that should appear in the windows gui list too ?

            @barbudreadmon Yes that's correct.
            The name is listed as "Frogger (Scramble hardware)" but is not listed when using bootlegs filter. But clearly it is a bootleg as Mame states.

            Oh well issue reported and the right github page :)

              Can someone else confirm that xmen2pu is busted? Current DAT says the status is good but I get the below. xmen2pj works as expected on fbneo and xmen2p works as expected on mame2003+.

                Some Konami games require you to enter the service mode save and exit and then reboot the game, that might not be the issue here but from memory i do mind
                you'd get that bad rom message with Run and Gun until you did the above which then creates an eeprom save file and the game would boot up as expected after that.

                      There were a bunch of changes that could affect that game over the last few days (added 6p version support and prevented a few crashs that would happen when pressing some buttons combination), maybe try updating to the latest version of fbneo ? You could also try deleting the eeprom (it might have been corrupted ?) named xmen2pu.nv, it should be in the fbneo subfolder of your roms directory.

                        xmen2pu.nv.old did the trick. :) Thanks for the help!

                          For those who want to use standalone FBNeo cheat files with the libretro port (i know people have been complaining a lot about the "retroarch way" to add cheats), it's now possible : https://github.com/libretro/FBNeo/tree/master/src/burner/libretro#how-do-i-use-cheat-code-

                            Can someone else test chopliftu and chopliftbl? The DAT says that choplift is broken but the bootleg or unprotected versions work fine. When I launch it, I get sound but no video. RA logfile below.

                                Crap. I was going to try that before posting but my version was only 3 days old. Fixed now.

                                BTW...assume choplift is still broken and we need to use one of the other 2, correct?

                                    I updated my core yesterday (first time in a while) and noticed that jojoba will no longer load. Seems that a recent DAT update is looking for:

                                    jojoba_euro_.29f400.u2" size="524288" crc="63cc8800

                                    6d8b322c-f408-41bb-9eaf-eb7ff069951a-image.png

                                    The file from the validated set is 'japan' (not 'euro'). MAME 224 also has the 'japan' file. Was this change by design?

                                    Anyway, having trouble locating a source file that contains the correct CRC. Not asking for a link...only asking if it is out in the wilds. :)

                                      The change follows MAME change : https://github.com/mamedev/mame/commit/ba113f167cf4e08efe92f164f3b2fec9cb6d5c3f#diff-b7295a09783ff0178e3add3fe5cb5b84
                                      It was done after MAME 0.224 release and will be part of 0.225. Yes, the file is out in the wilds :).

                                      I'm not 100% sure why euro is now the parent rom, but here is my guess :

                                      1. parent roms are usually the most recent version of the game (because of possible bug fixes), and euro version was probably released after japan version
                                      2. then why japan instead of usa previously ? i'm even less sure about that one, but it might be something about usa version generally having some form of censorship ?

                                      Edit : oh, actually i just noticed jojoba doesn't have an usa version

                                          @barbudreadmon: congrats for v1.0.0.0!! Awesome work, very much appreciated!
                                          Just a question: has "DoDonPachi II: Bee Storm (World v1.02)" been updated? I does not run anymore after updating FBNeo yesterday from source. I guess i need a newer dump of this romset?

                                            @sirhenrythe5th does it not say the reason via a verbose log?

                                            in any case, as per FBA, every release is synced to current MAME romset, AFAIK.
