Arcade Emulation on Recalbox

As the Advanced Arcade on recalbox wiki page for recalbox explains to us there are several arcade emulators included in recalbox.
Just using two of them will be enough for running the majority of games on your Raspberry Pi.

Those two systems are :

• Mame

  • mame/romset version : 0.78
  • roms folder : mame

• FBA_libretro

  • FBA is kind of an alternative version of MAME (emulating less arcade machines), but it follows exactly the same principles which I just explained
  • mame/fba/romset version : FBA 0.2.97.42 this corresponds to MAME 0.187
  • roms folder : fba_libretro

lr-mame2014 (MAME 2014)

Visit mame2014-libretro on github Note: This emulator is considered 'optional' in RetroPie and has limited functionality. It requires more processing power than earlier MAME versions and will not run as many games at full speed on rPi hardware.

Roms Dir: /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro
Binary Dir: /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-mame2014
Config Dir: /opt/retropie/configs/mame-libretro/retroarch.cfg

MAME Version: 0.159

lr-mame2016 (MAME 2016)

Visit mame2016-libretro on github Note: This emulator is considered 'experimental' in RetroPie and has limited functionality. It requires more processing power than earlier MAME versions and will not run as many games at full speed on rPi hardware.

Roms Dir: /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro
Binary Dir: /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-mame2016
Config Dir: /opt/retropie/configs/mame-libretro/retroarch.cfg

MAME Version: 0.174 

lr-mame2000 = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-mame2000/mame2000_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/mame-libretro/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"

lr-mame2003 = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-mame2003/mame2003_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/mame-libretro/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"

default = "lr-mame2003" 

Thus, a new format was created for these in the CHD file. Compressed Hunks of Data, or CHD for short, are designed very specifically around the needs of mass storage media. Some arcade games, consoles, and PCs will require a CHD to run. As CHDs are already compressed, they should NOT be stored in a ZIP or 7Z file as you would for ROM images. 

Why do my Neo Geo ROMs no longer work? How do I get the Humble Bundle Neo Geo sets working? 

Recently the Neo Geo BIOS was updated to add a new version of the Universal BIOS. This was done between 0.171 and 0.172, and results in an error trying to load Neo Geo games with an un-updated neogeo.zip set. This also affects the Humble Bundle set: the games themselves are correct and up to date as of MAME 0.173 (and most likely will remain so) though you’ll have to pull the ROM set .ZIP files out of the package somehow yourself. However, the Neo Geo BIOS set (neogeo.zip) included in the Humble Bundle set is incomplete as of the 0.172 release of MAME. We suggest you contact the provider of your sets (Humble Bundle and DotEmu) and ask them to update their content to the newest revision. If enough people ask nicely, maybe they’ll update the package. 

recalboxOS uses many awesome existing components, like EmulationStation2 as frontend, piFBA and Retroarch as emulators, RaspberryPI NOOBS as installation/recovery system.
