Okay, so I want to play neo geo games like Metal Slug in Mame, and I have MAME4ALL 037b5 roms. Currently I just get the message 'required files are missing'. @SteffenMB The neogeo.zip is the bios pack and it goes directly to the rom folder where the other roms are.

- Jul 10, 2014 Also, to get your ROMs to run, you're going to need the neo geo BIOS. It's not included in any retroarch core or anything, because it's propietary software, so technically you need the license to obtain it.
My original plan was to put MAME into a tiny. I could not get the set-up stable (SD-cards kept corrupting) and finally the little screen also wanted to break. Being lazy I ditched the cabinet and moved MAME to.

1) in each ROM subfolder for arcade games, be it MAME4all, MAMElibreto OR fba, i need to have the neogeo.zip, correct? No, but it depends where you put the roms. The bios should be in the same folder as the roms. It doesn't really make much sense to have complete mame and fba since most of the games would be duplicates. Choose 1 to be your main romset and put them in the arcade folder.
Neo Geo Bios Zip Emuparadise
Hi I don't know much about mame and neogeo but ive been trying everything and I can't get a single game to work firstly are they the same thing? Retropie comes up with seperate menu's but i got the impression there the same. I downloaded the bios roms and put them in the roms folder and tried a selection of roms in both neogeo and mame folders, when i try loading any roms some I get 'unknown or unsupported romset' and others i get a list of missing files, after getting the missing files error I tried googling the file names and downloading them.but didn't help also if this is the way to sort it, surely there's an easier way than googling each file any help would be great cheers.
Let’s do this in the right way: • Step 8. Edit file /config.txt and add (or uncomment if it’s already there): force_turbo=1 Setting arcade controller This was the hardest thing to find. The docs are in, but you need to know the name of you’re looking for to find it. So, I spent a lot of time looking how to configure THIS kind of controller: The magic words are Xin Mo. It’s that simple.
If the processor is ~95% utilized then you could try using 'chrt' and set the running application to a real-time scheduling policy to gain some more processor time but other applications will have long latencies and I have seen latencies in X window keyboard input which would be unacceptable for gaming. I don't think using Composite instead of HDMI will make any difference unless the GPU is maxed out (which is very unlikely). Code: DESCNAME=NeoGeo NAME=neogeo PATH=/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/neogeo EXTENSION=.zip.ZIP COMMAND=/home/pi/RetroPie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 1 '/home/pi/RetroPie/emulators/pifba/fba2x%ROM%' So I think I'm using the right one.
Each time I've had an identical bios file (neogeo.zip) in the folder containing the roms themselves, as well as retroarch's system folder. Unfortunately, anytime I double click a Neogeo game in launchbox, like I would for any other system, nothing happens. The mouse has a 'loading blue circle' for 1 or 2 seconds, and then nothing. Yesterday, I tried it direct through retroarch, I went to 'load content' and picked a game and it loaded right up. What could be wrong with how Launchbox is interacting with FBA/Retroarch? I've searched everywhere and I'm at the end of my rope trying to figure it out on my own.
So that's a plus. But there are some older ones that I just can't get any of the emulators to work with. From time to time, individual roms are updated to reflect changes in the way they were dumped or a change in the understanding of the original hardware they ran on. Because of this, each version of Mame that comes out may have a slightly different rom its looking for. Therefore you have to match the Mame version with the rom for it to work from time to time. The current version of Mame is.178. The version that runs the best on the Pi0 is.37b5 (a MUCH older version from July 2000 ) the good news, you can use a program called clrmamepro and a 'DAT' file to change your newer roms to a version that the 16 year old version of Mame will run.
I left them as I got them from the dome of pleasure softlist CHD set.181 or.182 (not sure which one). Heres my log running neogeo CD, using mame(181 as of buildbot release) with default settings + hash folder + dummy file(which likely needed for cd-based like neogeo,segacd,cd-i?) method - folder name, dummyfile name and actual chd filename should be based on hash. If you do not want the dummy files, then you disabled software list, remove hash, and set the correct media_type but still need the files to be in the right folder(neocdz as in neogeo-cd’s case) as the folder will identify what type of system is to be used on the rom. The disadvantage of having software list OFF and no hash is that you need to switch media_type everytime you switch system. You cannot play neogeo-cd and just decide to play arcade without switching first media_type. And also, do not enabled “mame_boot_from_cli” as this messes up loading in retroarch.
The controller actually works. It even asked me for more button configs on my Mad Catz 360 controller 2. Intellivision ain't working. It just kicks me back to the menu 3.
I'm hoping this set will be all i need for most stuff, but i suppose it's always a bit random with emulators. I'm trying to understand these romsets a bit better. It seems that there's not just one.zip per game - there's either several versions (regional variations), or sometimes it seems that there several zip files for the one version of the game. This makes the game list in emulation station a bit of a mess. In clrmamepro there's an option to 'separate bios sets' which guessing keeps bios files in separate zips (which makes sense as i suppose multiple roms might use the same bios - eg, all neogeo roms use neogeo.zip). There's also an option to split/merge sets, which also might reduce the amount of zips per game, but i'm not entirely sure what it entails.
GurgelBrannare OK, that could be your problem. GnGeo is notoriously 'picky' on ROMS, the EXACT revision must be used and iMAME4ALL is only compatible with a few selected Neo-Geo Titles. For the best results use FBA, it runs pretty much EVERY Neo-Geo Title. If it still refuses to run correctly try a Neo-Geo Bios from another source. Edit - 'but how do I check that?' It would probably be in the Emulation Station Front End configuration File, I cant assist much there as I don't use RetroPie (or Emulation Station) but there should be an answer in the RetroPie Forum Here.
I'm not sure why checking and then unchecking it again solved my problem, but it did. I realize this post is a bit late, but just in case it helps -- this thread came up first in a quick google search. I'm so close to getting NeoGeo ROM's working, but somethings not right. I've downloaded the bios, and managed to get them to work through RetroArch using fbalpha2012_neogeo core, but when I add them to Launchbox, they aren't loading.
Currently (in Retroarch 1.4.1) trying to load a NEO GEO CHD file directly will crash Retroarch, it doesn’t matter if you have dummy files, correct bioses, hash files, etc. Proper for MESS (now MAME), the bios files should be placed in the same folder where are CHDs, if the bios are put in other location, Retroarch may crash.
I recommend to keep the ROMs and saved games progress external as you can see. Burn the RetroPie image into the SD card, using: • on Windows. • on Mac OS X.
RetroPie 3.0.0 beta MAME Versions These details are as per the default installed binaries on the RetroPie 3.0.0 beta image.
No unique bios; however, if you choose the mame version is has a chd. You can google how to deal those.
In any case, both these options are disabled - it looks it depends on the,dat file you use (i'm using fba_0.2.96.71_clrmame_dat) - it can force the splitting of sets (which may even be required for pifba, i don't know!) i think the only way to sort out the game lists, short of editing the.dat file (which may break everything!) is to wait for emulation station to allow us to 'hide' certain roms from the list, unless anyone else has any ideas? A 'rom' is essentially a single file that comprises part of (or all) of an arcade game. So the software file is ripped from the PCB, for example there may be 3 roms that relate to the graphics, and 2 roms for the sound, so the game in total has 5 rom files.
However, once I pick a game on any platform, the controller doesn't respond whatsoever. If I have a keyboard plugged into it, I can play the game with the keyboard. Really want to use the controller though. I've reconfigured the controller buttons through the menuing system(for retropie, not the individual emulator), but still no luck. Any way around this?

Neogeo Bios Zip Download
Im literally confused out my mind. Let me get this straight, i have a few questions. 1) in each ROM subfolder for arcade games, be it MAME4all, MAMElibreto OR fba, i need to have the neogeo.zip, correct? 2)Do i need to have anything in the BIOS folder as well? 3) is there a difference between the neogeo.zip that i put in mame4all, mame-libreto and fba? 4) is there a difference between the ROM between these emulators, would mame4all, mame-libreto and fba all have different versions of street fighter? 5) Whats the best way to play 3rd strike, i read that this has its own unique bios?
Now turn it on You’re set. Plug the SD card and the USB drive into the Raspberry Pi and turn on. As is the first time to run RetroPie, it’s gonna take a little more time to process everything. The first screen to appear is like “Welcome, I found some controller plugged in”: Setting up controller You’ve to configure each button of the controller. I recommend to use the same distribution that the Sega Genesis controller: • Step 12. My choice of configuration for is: • For arrows, only set “up”, “down”, “left” and “right” on “D-PAD”. • For buttons, use the same distribution that the Sega Genesis controller.
There's also an option to split/merge sets, which also might reduce the amount of zips per game, but i'm not entirely sure what it entails. In any case, both these options are disabled - it looks it depends on the,dat file you use (i'm using fba_0.2.96.71_clrmame_dat) - it can force the splitting of sets (which may even be required for pifba, i don't know!) i think the only way to sort out the game lists, short of editing the.dat file (which may break everything!) is to wait for emulation station to allow us to 'hide' certain roms from the list, unless anyone else has any ideas? A 'rom' is essentially a single file that comprises part of (or all) of an arcade game. So the software file is ripped from the PCB, for example there may be 3 roms that relate to the graphics, and 2 roms for the sound, so the game in total has 5 rom files. These roms are usually zipped together into a single 'romset'. The romset may be called something like pucman.zip Now, perhaps pucman is an original game, but the manufacturer wants to provide a different version, perhaps updating the language from Japanese to English, this version may have one new rom.
That's so much for this (and everything!) floob - currently building a FBA-Libretro set from a 0.156 source (i'm hoping that is close enough to 0.154, as i couldn't find that). Is it fair to say that FBA-Libretro is the most compatible and up-to-date emulator for mame stuff on the pi? I was really impressed that it could run street fighter alpha so smoothly, but have had some trouble with MAME4ALL being a bit janky with fairly ancient games.
There are just too many different systems being emulated, with any number of controller options and configurations. In addition, for some emulators like Stella, RetroPie provides two different versions - vanilla Stella and a 'libretro' version, with completely different settings and options screens. And as for MAME, there are several versions of that too, two versions of AdvMAME (0.94 and 1.06) as well as MAME4ALL, etc.

RetroPie 3.0.0 beta MAME Versions These details are as per the default installed binaries on the RetroPie 3.0.0 beta image. Important In 3.0.0 some emulators share directories, so you need to choose which FBA, NeoGeo and mame4all version you want.
In my searches I've seen a page listing Emulator Settings, and it mentions command line details for FBA:%name -r 640x480x32 Is that relevant for hosting Retroarch through Launchbox? Where would I put that? Did anything use/not use it? Veeshan28 said SentaiBrad said If you need any more help, we have tutorials on our YouTube channel. Click the link in my signature. Your 'easy setup' video was a huge help for me with getting the basics going a few days.
I am fairly certain the BIOS just need to be located with the games (at least as far as MAME is concerned) but RA confuses things a bit more in that regard and MAME is already super confusing. If all else fails, you can also try the stand alone emulator or MAME. SentaiBrad said So the command does need to be -L 'cores (backslash) fba_libretro.dll'. The forums don't like backslashes, so one needs to be there. Assuming that is correct, do the names in the Associated platform match the name of the System? In LaunchBox, on the left where your systems are listed, make sure the name matches in Associated Platform, they need to in order for the commands to be ran successfully.

lr-fbneo is the prefered Pi 3/Pi 2 Neo Geo emulator due to its accuracy.
lr-fbalpha2012 is useful for any games that may be running slow in the latest version of lr-fbneo for a Pi 3/Pi 2, and if used exclusively instead of lr-fbneo will allow you to do full system updates without worrying about needing to update your ROM Set, but comes at the cost of inaccuracy such as games having audio issues across the entire library and other issues that have been fixed in the latest version of lr-fbalpha.

PiFBA is recommended for those on a Pi 0 or Pi 1.
ROMS
Accepted File Extensions: .7z .zip
Place Neo Geo ROMs in:
BIOS
Neo Geo ROMs require a neogeo.zip BIOS file with the exact same MAME or FB Neo version as the emulator you select. Place the correct neogeo.zip with your ROMs in:
Instructions on how to install the Neo Geo Unibios on lr-neo can be found here: lr-fbalpha Neo Geo Bios. The Unibios can be used as documented on the official page at http://unibios.free.fr/howitworks.html.
- On the Unibios boot screen
- Neo Geo A+B+C (RetroPad B+A+Y) for BIOS Menu
- Neo Geo B+C+D (RetroPad A+Y+X) for Test Menu
- At any time
- Neo Geo Start+A+B+C (RetroPad Start+B+A+Y) for In-Game Menu
The menus allow you to change various settings like region, dip switch settings for gameplay options like difficulty or blood, and coin or free play settings. Unibios settings will persist after quitting FBA, launching another Neo Geo game, or rebooting RetroPie.
Controls
You will configure controls differently depending on which emulator you use:
lr-fbneo and lr-fbalpha2012
lr-fbneo and lr-fbalpha2012 utilise RetroArch configs. Add custom RetroArch controls to the retroarch.cfg file in:
For more information on custom RetroArch controls see: RetroArch Configuration
PiFBA
PiFBA controls are located in:
As there is no menu to configure controllers with PiFBA, like there is with Mame4all, you'll have to edit the aforementioned file manually.
Example fba2x.cfg:
GnGeo-Pi

Romsets emulated: 128
As a caveat, if you're using _gngeo-pi__, the ROMs you have must match the file in gngeo_data.zip located at:
You can only play roms that have the same name as these .drv files, e.g. mslug2.zip (rom) and mslug2.drv (data). If the names of these files don't match, GnGeo-Pi will crash. (see the list at the bottom of this page for compatible ROMs)
