FB Alpha 2012 CPS-2 - RetroBIOS¶
Technical notes
Frozen snapshot of Final Burn Alpha v0.2.97.28 (circa 2012), CPS-2 only. Exists for RAM-constrained platforms (3DS, embedded).
CPS-2 has no system BIOS. Each game's ROM set is self-contained: 68000 program ROMs + Z80 sound program + GFX ROMs + QSound samples. Zero BRF_BIOS entries in entire codebase. No BRF_OPT entries either (PLD references stripped from this CPS-2-only build).
QSound emulated in software (qs_c.c). No external QSound DSP ROM needed. All audio data loaded from game ROM ZIP.
ROMs loaded from content directory (g_rom_dir, libretro.cpp:969). g_system_dir used only for hiscore.dat (hiscore.c:228-232).
Hiscore support gated by fba2012cps2_hiscores core option (libretro.cpp:561-563) and per-game BDF_HISCORE_SUPPORTED flag.
