- The neo geo roms are listed inside the arcade zip file. @Paultimate I tried to avoid Clrmamepro many years ago, and now that I've learned how to use it, I cannot live without it xD @bukanijam FBNeo emulator can generate the DAT files itself (check misc menu).
- Unibios settings will persist after quitting FBA, launching another Neo Geo game, or rebooting RetroPie. You will configure controls differently depending on which emulator you use: lr-fbalpha and lr-fbalpha2012. Lr-fbalpha and lr-fbalpha2012 utilise RetroArch configs. Add custom RetroArch controls to the retroarch.cfg file in: /opt.
Retroarch Roms Pack Neo Geo
RetroArch is a frontend for emulators, game engines and media players. It enables you to run classic games on a wide range of computers and consoles through its slick graphical interface. Uninstaller for mac apps. Settings are also unified so configuration is done once and for all.
Retroarch Neo Geo Setup
To make AES BIOS emulation mode work in your emulator:
1. Make sure your emulator works correctly.
2. Put neogeo.zip to 'System' directory (RALibretro), or a folder you keep your NeoGeo ROMs (RetroArch).
3. Make sure the neogeo.zip consist of at least files you can see here:
If you keep only those files, AES mode will be authomatically forced for any NeoGeo game (recommended).
Important! The files which are highlighted on this picture (neo-epo.bin and neo-po.bin) are the only one actually related to AES mode, and you probably will need to include them in your archive to make AES mode work for you. neo-po.bin is necessary for japanese-only titles or to make the japanese versions to work, but due to emulation issue it also forces japanese language as default, that's why you will need to remove it to display english in some games.
4. Load any FBA compatible neo geo ROM. More complete archive (including files needed to run MVS and UniBIOS modes) might need additional configuration to force AES mode:
In RaLibretro: Settings->Emulation->Force Neo Geo Mode->AES
In RetroArch: Command->Menu Toggle->Options->Force Neo Geo Mode->AES
