[Tuto]Use Neogeo Unibios in PiFBA

[neko]

I spend quite some time to figure out how this works, so I write it down here in case somebody else needs it.   What Unibios does: - Change region (Europe/USA/Japan) and Mode: (AES/MVS) - Access the soft dip to change game Difficulty/Life/Time etc - In-game Cheat database - Jukebox music player... and a lot more!   How to use it in PiFBA/Recalbox: Get it here (version 3.1): http://unibios.free.fr/download.html Extract the downloaded file, rename uni-bios.rom to asia-s3.rom.   Open your own neogeo.zip, there should be a asia-s3.rom file inside, back it up if needed. Put the new renamed asia-s3.rom into neogeo.zip, replace it with the old one. Now upload the new neogeo.zip back to the Recalbox share folders, on both\bios and \finalburnalpha   Usage: Start up any neogeo game, you will see the new UNIVERSE BIOS v3.1 splash screen. During this startup screen, press and hold BXY for region/mode setup, or hold ABX for dip switch menu. To access the in-game menu, press and hold BXY+START at the same time.   SNK forever!

One small problem I still cannot resolve is that the Region/MVS mode setting won't save, so I have to manually set it up each time I startup any games. If anyone know how to overcome this please let me know, thanks
