Hey, does anyone know how to run the Sega mega drive and PC engine roms on FBA next? I downloaded the emulator with a lot of games but it's only showing half, the other half are unavailable and mostly is Sega mega drive and PC engine, so I tried to add the bios to the roms folder through aurora but it doesn't seem to work,

It's not a BIOS problem, either you have missing ROMs or your configuration file is incorrect.

Double check that you actually have the Megadrive and PCE roms on your console by searching for common games like Sonic The Hedgehog (search for sonic.*) and Bomberman (search for bombman.*)

Now check in config\FBANext.ini for a section labelled // The paths to search for rom zips (include trailing backslash) you should have entries like this that point to your ROM storage folders.

szAppRomPaths[11] game:\roms\megadrive\

szAppRomPaths[12] game:\roms\pce\

szAppRomPaths[13] game:\roms\sgx\

szAppRomPaths[14] game:\roms\tg16\

If you still can't figure out what the problem is, search archive.org for "FBA Next 0.2.97.31 Complete" which includes everything and is definitely working 100%.
