Re: [Announce] Final burn alpha port
 
I have found a few problematic games:
- Blood Bros: Coin button does not work (unplayable).
- Ghost and Goblins: Coin button does not work (unplayable).
- Arkanoid: Left and Right buttons do not work (unplayable).
- Akanoid 2 Revenge of Doh: The game restarts after initial sequence (unplayable).

In the Hunt - doesn't work at all. launching it only produces a black screen. pressing P, i see "Pause" appear on the emulator so i know the emulator is still running.

btw, running this on the windows version of the emulator works.

you should only need to add that line if you want a different path otherwise it should find them in /home/user/MyDocs/roms. You could try adding it to see if it makes a difference.

strace ./capex 2>&1|grep open|grep zip

Now you must see that capex is trying to open all its known roms in the terminal output, and in what path it is looking for those zips.

P.s. if you thinks a post is helpfull you can press the thanks button :)

After apt-get install strace it says: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
And after the last line, nothing happens.
(My phone acting pretty strange lately. Some of my apps won't even start! I installed your fceu-gui today, and that's doesn't start either! (like Gngeo). Maybe i just need to reflash my phone?)

You could try adding that "--fix-missing" hint or something like "apt-get check". Both GnGeo-Gui and Fceu-gui are made in the same language, so if they are not working, something specific is wrong or missing. You could therefore try to do the command line startup I mentioned for you in the GnGeo-gui thread. And of course you can always flash for a fresh restart.

Good work ace1000 it works great.

I had no problems with the rom list showing up mame uses the same folder path so i just loaded it and it worked straight away.

Is there a frame skip option?

frameskip is automatic there is no manual option currently.

Ghost and Goblins coin works from me (world set 1).

Arkanoid is still an issue.

Ok thats fine.

Not now but after you have got FBA working to a standard you are happy with could you look at porting over mame4all from the gp2x wiz?

This is a post i wrote in the mame thread it may be of some interest to you.

I actually found FBA more convenient than Mame4all as the latter uses very old romsets.
