Sur le même principe que l’Universe Bios pour MVS/AES, ce bios de remplacement vous permettra de jouer avec vos jeux avec une foule de possibilités supplémentaires (cheats, mode AES/MVS, Vitesse accrue/Protection supprimée…).
Bien que réservé principalement aux possesseurs de la véritable console, ce bios pourra évidemment s’utiliser avec des émulateurs de NeoGeo comme FBA/MESS/RAINE/… (lorsque ceux-ci seront à jour).
Improvements
– Bios now selfchecks itsself at boot, a red screen is displayed if an error is found.
– Changing the system type will make the system reboot when exiting the settings window.
– Opening the ingame menu should now pause CD audio, it should play again once closed.
– Overhauled the backup memory manager to improve usability.
– Formatting the backup memory no longer clears unibios region settings.
– Updated to include 68k exception error handling.
– Made the white flash on opening and closing the audio player program box shorter.
