    What is FB Alpha Retro Loader ?
    • FB Alpha RL is a PS3 homebrew application coded from scratch, and not based in any other public source code by other developers. It is a result of many hours of dedication and research.
    • It is in no way a dirty hack of RetroArch or something similar. By the contrary, FB Alpha RL serves as a independent frontend to RetroArch and provides features not incorporated in it.
    • I did had to make a modified RetroArch core to be included along my application, so it could process the arguments or new commands that FB Alpha RL will be sending to it.

    Objective of FB Alpha RL (Retro Loader):
    • As a dev from the official FB Alpha Team, FB Alpha RL was made with a objective in mind, to keep the original experience from the official FB Alpha (for Windows OS) on the PS3 system. Please, read the technical info (tab) for more details.

  • Technical Info:
    • Signed for CFW 3.4X / 4.XX (should work for everyone).
    • Tested @ 1080p / 720p / 480p resolutions via HDMI.
    • FB Alpha RL uses a custom 'burn_drivers.cpp' file that was generated by modifying the official windows version of FB Alpha with a routine to generate such file on launch.
    • The file have a big structure with all the information for all supported drivers in FB Alpha v0.2.97.30.
    • Information such as:
    • Romset Name (Ex. kof2002)
    • Parent ROM (Ex. sf2)
    • Year
    • Manufacturer (Ex. Capcom)
    • System (Ex. Neo Geo)
    • Max players
    • Game Screen Resolution
    • Game Screen Aspect Ratio
    ​
    Future release will have a custom generated file with all the ROM information as well, so the application will be able to verify every romset with precise CRC32 checks (as in the official FB Alpha for Windows).
    NOTE: You don't need the official RetroArch installed, this already has my own modified build incorporated into FB Alpha RL installation directory. So you can safely install the official RetroArch and it won't interfere.

    To clean (all cores):
    • Ported my custom mods to the latest RetroArch Core v0.9.9.6.
    • (O) is the new 'Game List' button to return to 'Main Menu'.
    • Added shadow effect to all rendered text, in preparation for future 'Custom Theme' feature.

    • [src] Source code has been greatly re-organized.
    • [src] 'miniz.cpp' ZIP library is used the 'proper' way, so now I can use its modules everywhere I need.
    • [src] 'burn_drivers.h' was renamed as 'burn_drivers.cpp' and is now compiled, allowing access to its data everywhere I need.
    • Added support for Neo-Geo UNI-BIOS (need to be present in neogeo.zip).
    FBARL will look from latest (uni-bios_3_0.rom) to oldest BIOS (uni-bios_1_0.rom) in 'neogeo.zip', of course if you don't have any of those the game will be loaded with regular BIOS.
    • Added check for file existence on game selection, if the game listed is not found for some reason, like for example, if you disconnected the USB with the games, it will prompt you with a message to re-scan. The system will not lock / freeze anymore.
    • Added check for fb_alpha.SELF core existence on game selection, if for some reason you don't have it or can't access, the application will let you know and prompt you to re-install it.
    • Fixed libretro core default inputs for Neo-Geo and Capcom fighting games, now they are correctly assigned.
    • Fixed the Save Custom Inputs feature on RetroArch core, now it will not include the annoying 'example' text, it will use the currently loaded name, so you can save quickly and continue playing.
    • Added FTP support.
    • Using latest FB Alpha v0.2.97.30 source, adapted to compile as libretro (romset is synched with MAME v149).
    • Doesn't include all 'optimizations' from recent libretro Git, since some of them cause some problems with a few games.
