and please developer note that we are in difficult situation with the new fbneo core for every Rpi under the 3b+ with cps3 fighting game (drop in fps also occurs with asura blade and jojo ba)
update should not bring less performance isnt it ?

Most of the time, fixing issues involves less performance.

[angry mode on]
If we have to stop fixing issues so that people can keep using broken emulation on an outdated 35$ computer instead of buying the new version of that same computer, which handles the fixed emulation, we might as well stop developping emulators. In the first place, FBNeo is an emulator for desktop computer, so you should be happy we still show concerns for people with low-end devices (MAME doesn't !), because there is an issue with CPS3 emulation that would make playing it on any raspberry pi mostly impossible if we decided to fix it (actually we fixed it but decided to drop the fix after seeing the drastic decrease in performances).

mmm maybe you missed the point, you are the develloper of FBneo, of course you are trying to always improve and fixing issue, even if it involve performance, and as you said fbneo is an emulator for desktop computer... here i was speaking to the developpers of recalbox, especially about the Rpi package.

So let me go in angry mode too:

First i live in cambodia and y average salary is 600$ which is far above the average salary already, so please come back in consideration what could 35$ represent with this new ratio.

And second why i couldnt address this issue to RB developers? it is up to them to include the last iteration of FB, but also as they still include old mame version or even FBA2x in regard to less powerfull pi owner, why couldnt they keep both version of FB the 0.39 and the 0.44, knowingthat we cannot use any versus fighting CPS3 game without crackling sound and less than 60 fps as long as we cannot afford at least the pi3b+ (which by the way since the release of pi4 became more aound 55$ nowadays) with the last available RB version ???

angry mode off

by the way i managed to roll back to FBa .39 as mentionned earlier, and now i can play again all my games at 60 fps , perfect sound, still working even with the last retroarch version and new menu.... i woul have prefered to have the choice to select for each game the core version, because to acheive that without too musch hassle i have to replace the fbneo core with the old one but with same name, meaning all my neo geo roms have to be re tweaked with my personal option. but i am happy with it now, just thinking of all other people facing the same problem....

Sorry this forum is not the good place for your personal issues. Please stop this kind of message.

i dont have any issue regarding my living place and/or salary, just put back things in perspective when he was saying
"If we have to stop fixing issues so that people can keep using broken emulation on an outdated 35$ computer instead of buying the new version of that same computer, which handles the fixed emulation, we might as well stop developping emulators",

but i will not do it anymore

and please can we stay on the topics: availability of old core regarding to CPS3 games slowdown in "old" generation Rpi?

• That's more than twice the average pay in cambodia, so you can definitely afford a 35$ computer every few years with that pay, rpi3 is more than 4 years old now. Or are you telling me you monitor every cents you spend with that pay ? Could you honestly tell me you didn't spend much more on, let's say, smartphones in the meantime while your previous one was still perfectly fine ?
• It's not as if the rpi3 can't handle cps3 with the new core, you just prefer using an older core, whatever the bugs it might have, over using the fixed version with frameskip.
• More cores = more confusion for end users = more work for us developpers. How about also keeping 0.30, 0.31, 0.32, 0.33, 0.34, 0.35, 0.36, 0.37, 0.38, 0.40, 0.41, 0.42 and 0.43 versions ? Only the cps3, a system with 6 games, is relevant ? Such a bad idea, there would be no end to this...

Please stay in the topic or it'll be closed.

@OyyoDams i think explaining why having multiple versions of the core is both a bad idea and unnecessary isn't out of subject though

[Lienj Gorimaa]

how many version of mame is already available in Rb 6.1 (mame 2000, mame 2003, mame 2003+, mame 2010, mame 2015, advance mame?)

for the rest about my personal spending i can bring down your argument in only one objective sentence, but i wont by respect to the promise i made to OyyoDams (if you want to know it just PM me )

[OyyoDams]

@Lienj-Gorimaa that's not a good answer to keep everyone in peace. Now that's enough, I've warned you 2 times, now the topic is closed.
