Final Burn Alpha is an emulator specializing in emulating arcade video game machines based on M68000 and Z80 CPUs.
The Dingoo's FBA320 port is a combination of the GP2X and PSP ports of Final Burn Alpha - think of it as part Linux (GP2X heritage) and part MIPS (PSP/Dingoo CPU).

Thanks to all the people involved in the original versions - see the readme.txt for credits.

You must use fbacache.exe to create the wwfwfest.fba cache file.

Look at the following example.
Make sure you are in the correct directory.
Make sure the ROM is in the correct directory.
Do no specify the path name, just the rom.zip name.

ie.
home:/l/local/fba> ls -l

Hi Slaanesh
I've got some strange bugs with FBA32à.
First some games (mostly the Neogoeo Fighting games)looks like missing somes frame when you move from the border (like the character is teleporting or somthing like that). This kind of bugs doesn't appear with the shooters.
Secondly, with Guwange the game workls great (some slowdown but nothing strange) most of the time but have freeze one or two times. Maybe it's a memory issue.
Thirdly : Guwange seems to crash when exiting (returning to Dinguxmb and not FAB320, plus the keys are not responding.

Plus : can you post the gamelist.txt as it doesn't seem to be in the archive.

Are you selecting the cache file before you launch the game? By default it map be .zip if you have both available.

I think I compiled Neo Geo with overscan on - so some games may look funny. I will try without in next release.
Unfortunately if a game crashes, it does not re-eable the keyboard and controls that rely on keyboard emulation (like DinguXMB) will not work.
The solution is for DinguXMB to re-enable keyboard support. I will add this in to DinguXMB v1.1.

Very strange - it works fine for me. I am using a custom kernel though - but I've tried many games with the standard/latest kernel.
Can someone else confirm that wwfwfest works/does not work?

You will need to create a cache file.

I think pressing select+l+r is a little awkward for me.Can you set another combination of keys(2 best) to quit fba320.BTW,Mameall and fba320 can't share the same rom directory.This causes so much waste of my card space.Can you fix it in the next release?: )

Mame4all - Old mame sets
FBA - New mame sets

Hi Slaanesh
I found a bug. I think it's a memory management issue. When launching a CPS2 game (cache version) after a Neogeo one, the launch crash, the game freeze or is very slow.

PS : I've try to make a cache of some games. The launch process start, FBAcache say Dump ok (but only the first batch of operations seem to be done)but no file saved (like with the rom bbakraid.zip).
