FB Alpha v0.2.97.22 is released. FB Alpha or FBA as it is commonly known is an emulator of arcade games, that is, it takes the program code, graphics data, etc., from an original arcade game and emulates the hardware to make the game run in it's original form. As far as the game is concerned it is running in it's original cabinet.FB Alpha is an open-source project and it is programmed by a group of people known as the FBA Team. Over the years this has comprised of myself, Jan_Klaassen, KEV, LoopMaster, Mike Haggar, Hyper Yagami and Ayeye. FB Alpha is based on the original FinalBurn by Dave.

I am surprising that they do not include metal Slug 6.
ReplyDeleteCan you add Cave SH3 and Metal Slug 6 if possible thanks
ReplyDeleteThey are not going to read it here. You need to go to source link above and ask them.
ReplyDeleteMetal Slug 6 runs on Atomiswave. Try Demul 0.57
ReplyDeleteCave SH3 would be illegal to add.
