Excellent guide! Thank you very much. I just so happened to buy one of these cabs just shortly before stumbling across this video thanks to the glorious algorithm! That FInal Burn Neo pack is absolutely humongous; I’d totally recommend anyone using that to dumb down some of the tittles to save repeats of the same game. I’m about to install a Mame back shortly; tried Tekken 3 for PS1 and it runs quite well, crazy taxi on the dreamcast has done frame rare issues but halving the resolution or frame skipping helped out. Not everything runs smoothly but it’s sure nice to keep the stock applications and have the optional big blue and marvel vets capcom cabs. Thanks for this video; you’ve earned yourself a subscriber! If you have any ideas on a similar software mod for the time crisis machine that would be awesome 😅 apparently sinden have just recently released a beta app for android; I might have a mess around with my time crisis 1up cab and see if I can get something going.

Hi, great guide, but I have some questions. Bearing in mind that I would make the modification on a "Street fighter Yoga flame edition" cabinet, after installing the other APKs: 1) I can continue to use wifi on the original version of the APK of my cabinet so I can play online and see the rankings of the scores? 2) can I possibly remove the change if I no longer want to use it and return the cabinet to the basic software? Thank you

@THE-ADM-24 ай бұрын
Yeah SF2 plays fine. I was running the 1st release version which may have had bugs originally? In the background I was simultaneously recording the screen. Obviously you won't be recording your game play so it will likely run even better. I've found a few games that struggle, but from my experience I find most (95%) work perfectly to my eyes. I guess you could always remove any games that don't play well.

I was unable to mod my big blue but have been able to mod my MVC2 cab instead. Flycast for dreamcast runs ok however I do notice framedrops on even some 2D such as Capcom Vs SNK, On alot of the FBA Neo games I am getting noticeable slowdown even more so than when emulating dreamcast. Aliens Vs Predator arcade really struggles especially when in 2 player mode. Do you have any suggestions on how to rectify this or is this an issue with the FBA Neo core via retroarch on this device?
@THE-ADM-23 ай бұрын
I don't have a MvC2 cab unfortunately. I understand MvC2 currently has some of the most powerful hardware on any Arcade1Up cabinet, but obviously the hardware was never intended to emulate multiple systems and games. I'm sure the original hardware will be able to emulate arcade games and systems up to SNES very well. Dreamcast games will probably struggle. If you want better emulation of Dreamcast and newer systems you'll probably need to modify the hardware, that said playing around with the settings will probably improve the experience. Personally I'm happy with arcade and systems up to SNES as that's my era.
@goodwinsretrovertigo61973 ай бұрын
@@THE-ADM-2 I tried running the arcade games I mentioned through a different rom and a MAME core and the performance difference was like night and day so will just choose the relevant core for the games I want to play. Dreamcast I have noticed is running the same as when I ran it via a Fire HD10 tablet a few years back, again I think the performance isnt down to the hardware it the emulator so I am going to try a few different DC emulators out over the next few days as imagine standalone flycast and or Redream will run better than a retroarch core. Interested in knowing which Snes core you would recommend as theres about 10 or 12 different ones I noticed to download.

You might have thumbnails downloading to your limited internal storage. Thumbnails should be set to download to the external MicroSD storage instead. Check your directories.

The other stuff is still saved, just to the internal memory. I've found since, that updating the "Cheats" database uses about 0.25GB of space from the 4GB internal memory. So I now direct cheats, to the SD card. I guess you could also just skip that update, if you don't use chests. I did try changing all the directories to the SD card, but it stopped my FBNeo playlist from loading. You can experiment with directories.

so i can only have 3 cab APKs (ex. yoga , big blue, MVC) if i decide to run retroarch even if i have lagre SD card??
@THE-ADM-25 ай бұрын
Short answer: No Long answer: If you format your microSD card as internal (tablet) storage and force apps to SD storage in settings, then you can install to the SD card. Unfortunately this causes multiple issues like double boot, various errors and poor stability (getting worse as the more you have on the SD card. In my experience the best way is to format the microSD as portable storage and install apps to the internal storage. You can put RetroArch games on the portable microSD even though RetroArch is installed to internal memory. Why do you want all 3 extra APKs and RetroArch? The X-Men Vs Street Fighter only comes with with 2 extra games not already on Capcom Vs Street Fighter and I don't really care for these 2 games anyway. Some people only have RetroArch and the original APK installed. You can actually squeeze the 3 extra APKs and RetroArch onto the internal memory. I haven't done this because storage generally works better and lasts longer, if it isn't too full. This is why I suggest only installing up to 2 extra APKs if installing RetroArch. It doesn't really matter which cabinet APKs you choose to install, but obviously you'll want to choose a different wallpaper.
