Hi Square…just curious but which version of Final Burn Alpha is RetroArch based on? I know Barry just released version 0.2.97.29.
Furthermore, what are your thoughts on aFBA and how does it compare in your opinion?
I believe the libretro port is 0.2.97.28.
I see. That’s great. Thanks Tribulent
That guy is a piece of shit who tried more than once to sell his shitty port of FBA (and got his ass handed to him by the FBA devs). Please dont link to him from now on.
Ahh my bad. I’m starting to see how the game is played now. Thanks for setting the record straight bro. It’s too bad these guys try to leech off the hard work You, Barry and Co do to make these emulators as good as they are.
On a somewhat unrelated note, can you share some light on why the version of MAME in RA is not based on any of the last few or current builds? Mame4Droid 1.4 just came out and the author, “ahhh”, based on 0.139 whereas the one in RA is based on 0.78? Please don’t shoot me I’m just genuinely curious.
MAME 0.139 would run like shit on nearly all tablets/phones and consoles, that’s why.
Base requirement for the MAME port was fullspeed emulation of Midway games with DCS (Mortal Kombat 2/3/Ultimate) on currentday tablets/phones/console. I succeeded at this at least with MAME 0.78 libretro. You would never ever be able to achieve that with MAME 0.139.
BTW - it’s not just that the guy itself is a dishonest twat - cpasjuste - but his port more or less sucks anyway last time I tried it. Performance is just terrible.
Cpasjuste since went incognito - changed his name and started selling it again -

I dunno if Google complied with Kevin’s takedown request yet (FBA dev).
EDIT: Looks like it got taken down another time. But yeah, this is the trash you are dealing with in this Android scene.
Gotcha. Thanks man, appreciate the explanation and keep up the good work! I’m gonna have a blast with RetroArch! Mortal Kombat 2 and UMK3 are two of my favorite fighting games, so to be able to play them at full speed on a handheld while on the road is gonna be sick!
