I was able to locate what should be a full rom set for FBA 0.2.97.42 and I have updated my lr-fbalpha emulator to the latest from sources. I have been reading the indicated help and docs about how to make sure roms are the right version but taking a step back I haven't found anything that explains where exactly to put the other.zip files in the complete collection folders other than 'roms' I know 'samples' goes to the./bios/fba/samples folder. But the contents of the other folders such as coleco, gamegear,megadriv,msx, etc all look like they are just game rom sets themselves.
Are they somehow needed to be copied to the bios/fba folder as well? I ask because I am still seeing many games such as the metal slug series failing to load when using what should be an fba 2.97.42 rom with the latest lr-fbalpha 0.2.97.42 and the games in question are listed as working for a raspberry pie 3 (which I have) in the lr-fbalpha 0.2.97.42 games list spread sheet.

It feels like I am missing a step here somewhere. Sramakrishnan books pdf free. Yeah ok so after re-reading some info I finally understand what the 'parent' field means in the games list for each rom set. So if you want to play Metal Slug 5 (mslug5.zip) you also have to have Metal Slug 4 (mslug4.zip), and Metal Slug 3 (mslug3.zip), and Metal Slug 2 (mslug2.zip) as well as the neogeo.zip bios roms all in the same rom folder. This does work if you put them all into the roms/arcade folder but the recommendation is to put them in the roms/neogeo folder. Either way you have the issue of all those games showing up as well as the 'Neogeo' showing up which is kinda ugly and less than ideal. I imagine if you take the contents of all those zips and package them all into one mslug5.zip, for example, that might clear that issue up? Will try that.

Please stop reading random tutorials and taking a wild guess at things. You do NOT need all those other games to make metal slug 5 to work. Since you failed to properly read (or just ignore) the wiki links I posted, I'll go ahead and give you this little tidbit and end it there. To run metal slug 5, you just need neogeo.zip and mslug5.zip in the roms folder. So if you want to play Metal Slug 5 (mslug5.zip) you also have to have Metal Slug 4 (mslug4.zip), and Metal Slug 3 (mslug3.zip), and Metal Slug 2 (mslug2.zip) as well as the neogeo.zip bios roms all in the same rom folder. Only if you use the files from the romset as is - which is a split set. You can use the clrmamepro or romcenter to load/filter/rebuild the romset and get a non-merged zip ROM, which can be used standalone so you don't need to have all the parent ROM(s) (the other mslug games) in order to play one game.
Said in: Confirmed that putting the contents all into one zip works yes. Also if having the 'neogeo' dummy game in the list is undesirable you can put the contents of neogeo.zip into each dependant game zips. If you are using lr-fbalpha for neogeo, you can actually get away with moving the neogeo.zip file into the bios folder. You still need mslug.zip (or whatever version) in the the roms folder, but FBA will find neogeo.zip in bios just fine. This is nice because it gets it out of the game list.
