 Welcome back to RetroTech. Today I'm going to run a quick demo on the Universal BIOS The BIOS upgrade to version 4.0. We did in the last video Today I wanted to show you how it worked on my MBS, which is the four-slot MBS that you see I've got it just turned on and running normally so Just to show you some of the features the first thing I can do is Pull up the in-game menu now I did that by pressing a bc and start at the same time You can see I've got a database here. It gives me cheats, which are different for each game but a nice cheat menu and Then see to go back Debug dip settings, which I've not used But if you have some reason you need to do that or patch your memory those two options are available for the game And then you've got the bottom Which allows you to do a couple things first you can do a soft reboot You can and then there's some other things that you can do And but the most important thing on here it lets you get into some of the menus things Yeah, but the most important is the soft system reboot I wanted you to see this reboot because if you press reboot on Your system it's going to immediately take you to the universe bios screen flash screen And then a couple seconds later it jumps into the game just normally starting so We want to do a soft reboot and While this is up we press A B and C together and it gives us our universal bios or universe bios menu screen where we can set up our region and Do some other settings and enable some other features But really the region setup is the most important here and This one you can go to Japan US or Euro I'm in the US, but you can do any version and then you get the chance to switch between arcade MBS mode on the game or console mode so I'm going to keep it in arcade mode and We'll do that and then you press C to get out and it'll boot The machine regularly after that If you're using a MBS, it's really easy to install But there are some bugs on it first off, I've not been able to get The console version of any game to really work properly I've had troubles where I put it in console mode and my a button is also my pause button So it's actually controlling two things and that's the way it's been on every game I've tried and I've tried it's not said anything about it much in the manual except that there is trouble with certain games so in MBS The console mode just might need to either have a future bug fix or some more research I'll have to look and see if there's any other fix for that Other than that though, it works great and then the cheat codes are great because It gives a lot of cheats it again. It's for any game That you happen to have on your machine. You can do a cheat code for that's available That's a lot of fun So I Recommend this of course to anybody who would want to get there or want to get the most out of their neo-geo Whether it's an AES or MBS I did want to say that the AES version and some of the MBS versions do not have The BIOS in a chip socket like this one was conveniently Placed in but it does sound like the AES Has more options available where maybe less bugs are present in the AES version And you can really get a whole lot more out of the chip by using it in your AES I would recommend definitely adding a Removing the BIOS chip and adding a chip socket so it'll be an easy install and that way you can swap out for future chips or You can put the original BIOS chip back in there if you want But again, this was just a quick demo of how to use this Let me show you since you if you want to stay around and see what the error is I can put that on this machine and let's just go ahead and see so I'm going to go to a soft reboot And then I'm going to access my BIOS menu by pressing ABC again And then watch I'll go here in US region Console version And that's what I've got and then I'll press C to get back out And then my machine boot really doesn't matter which one of these games I select They're all going to do the same thing, but you can see I'm in console version now Which doesn't ever give me anything like this So watch as I start the game. You'll see here see how it says pause when I press the A button What also says pause when I press the select button But a also says pauses and does a simultaneously And that's really the way it is on every game for the MVS or at least my MVS So I'm going to have to do some more research Because that basically makes it unplayable if you need the a button which nearly every game uses at least the a button so for the time being I have to keep mine in Arcade And then I won't have that issue See no problems now under arcade mode don't have any pausing feature at all so I Don't know whether that's something that's specific to this board set up But that's the issue I've got right now if anybody has any kind of comments on how I might be able to debug that or knows anything about it Please let me know Otherwise, I'll be reading and I'll let you know if I find anything else out Thanks again for watching retro tech again
