      lr-fbalpha is constantly updated, and with software updates come romset updates.

      you may need the neogeo.zip from the latest FBA 0.2.97.44 romset.

      it's nothing to do with putting bios within the game zips...

        @dankcushions but I have a working nepgeo.zip file because if I put it in the games directory the games work - just not if I put it into the bios directory?

          @mancity oh, interesting. what version are you using of fbalpha? if you bring up the RGUI, it should have a version string at the bottom - efa0235 or something like that

            actually, quickest way is to diagnose is to launch with verbose logging via runcommand, recreate the issue, and then paste the log from here: /dev/shm/runcommand.log

                @mancity i wouldn't. you could find you'll need to update your romset.

                  @dankcushions oh haha - what do you suggest then? I'll check the lr-fpalpha version when I get home. I assume you cane place the bios somewhere other than the games folder for pifba?

                    @mancity i suggest what i said above :) looking at the logs - it should show it finding out your system directory, and then say the file it can't find. that should tell us everything.

                    pifba is a different emulator that needs a completely different romset. forget that.

                        Ok so I took a copy and then updated lr-fbalpha and it works with the neogeo.zip in the BIOS directory :)
