Hi,
most of the CPS1 roms worked for me, however i should say that most of the CPS2 roms didn't work. They have graphic glitches and vertical lines are displayed all over the screen.

I tried these cps1 roms: (sorry but i dont know how to put this list correctly)

Feel free to update, it's open for edit.

Are you sure? I have tried these files from 2 different sites now and neither seem to be working for me

the files that I am using are:
kotm.zip
kotm2.zip
lbowling.zip

If you could point me in the right direction it really would be hugely appreciated!

Also, I tried using the FBACache generator, but once I converted the file from .zip to .fba it no longer appears in the games list so it cannot be selected...any ideas what i might be doing wrong or how i can get the converted .fba files to display?

Hi Reesy first off your a legend a bought the caanoo so I could play wrestlefest so thank you for allowing me to do that your a legend mate.Ok enough of the sucking up is there a way for for me to play wwf superstars of wrestling it came out before wrestlefest by the same developer and is a great game.I put the rom in the alpha emulator but it did not come up.If there is anyway to make this work it would make my collection complete.If champion such as yourself could do it ill name my first born Reesy.lol
thanks again champ

Hi,

I've ported GP2X version of FBA & Capex ( frontend for FBA ) to the Caanoo.

http://reesy.gp32x.de/caanoo/fba2x.zip
http://reesy.gp32x.d...o/fba2x_src.zip
http://reesy.gp32x.d...bacapex_src.zip

Final Burn Alpha emulates old arcade games, if you want more info use google

Credits go to Squidge & Headoverheels who did the original GP2X port and added all of the arm based cpu cores etc.

In-Game Controls

HOME = Start
JOYSTICK PUSH = Insert credits
L & R & HOME = exit emulator
L & R & JOYSTICK PUSH = Service Request

Later
Reesy

For anyone else that was struggling with getting certain games to work as i was, you might need to get the bios for the relevant games...can't believe I forgot that! hehe.
Jonnn for some reason Superstars doesnt work :s As you say it was out before Wrestlefest so it is a bit baffling why Wrestlefest works and Superstars doesn't but I suppose it does mean that there is every chance it will become available to us at some point

I'm still loving Wrestlefest! Managed to eliminate 11 people in the rumble a few days back...took me about 3 hours to do haha. God bless the bodyslam over the ropes!

Hmmmm, somebody messed up the test results.

I restored the sheet from yesterday night's backup. I'm wondering whether maintaining such a list in public actually works.

Please add your name in the last column when changing a row.

I got my roms from a torrent. my kotm.zip is 4.07mb and kotm2 is 5.51mb and lbowling is 1.78mb. try searching for pro FBA cps1 and cps2 roms.

Hey man, I noticed that too in some CPS2 games for Example MARVEL SUPER HEROES

I have all of the different files (Asia, Japan, USA, etc..)
The only one that works for me without the graphical glitches is the Hispanic version of the game. These are the types of the things that need to go in that spreadsheet if Yoshi can figure out a way to stop it from getting messed up by someone

As for the different romset versions,

How are we supposed to know what the versions are? If you get them from different sites, they all just seem to be the same file with the same name. I guess you just have to try as many of them as you can? Seems like a WHOOLE lot of work for the spreadsheet, but it seems to be worth it to download off multiple sites if you kind of have your eyes set on playing one specific favorite game.

But, as far as these CPS2 fighter games, make sure to test all of them.. (JAPAN, ASIA, EUROPE.. etc)
because some of them work, and some of them don't.

Haven't gotten into the King Of Fighters games for FBA , hope they all work great

[horchacha]

thanks a ton - lots of fun - can't figure out how to play the vertical games but it's fun to try - a+

[Geca]

A new version with support to Thunder Hoop:

FBA Thunder Hoop

[tibbo]

Is the only difference with the new version that it now supports Thunder Hoop? If so I probably wont bother changing everything as it seems to be running nicely now...
Are there any other games supported with this new version?

[Geca]

I don't know, please test it and tell us!

[darklight1138]

So far, this new version sucks. Bad. Can't get anything to run on it.

Reinstalling old version now.
