It's distributed under a non-commercial license, see [LICENSE.md](https://github.com/finalburnneo/FBNeo/blob/master/LICENSE.md) and [whatsnew.html](https://github.com/finalburnneo/FBNeo/blob/master/whatsnew.html).

There are controversies about whether libretro's patreon and retroarch's GPL license breaks FBNeo's non-commercial license or not. This is what you should know :
|
||||
|
||||
* **"Redistributions may not be sold, nor may they be used in a commercial product or activity."** : By definition, a commercial activity is an activity involving the sale of goods or services. The libretro project does none of that, and it is unclear whether a patreon should be treated as a commercial activity or not when no goods or services are provided in exchange of the donations.
|
||||
* **"You may not ask for donations to support your work on any project that uses the FB Neo source code."** : This FBNeo port is using libretro code, not the other way around. This port is directly authored/maintained/supported by members of the FBNeo team, and none of them is receiving donations. Interestingly, if receiving donations was de facto a commercial activity, this term shouldn't be required.
|
||||
* *If* the libretro project was a commercial activity, it would still be unclear how it does affect this port. Our win32 standalone builds use the directx api, which belongs to a commercial company. Using the libretro api, which would belong to a commercial activity, wouldn't be any different. Furthermore, in all likeliness, there would still be alternative libretro frontends that don't belong to the libretro project and are not commercial.
|
||||
* Actually, alternative commercial libretro frontends already exist, and we consider we are not concerned as long as this port is not distributed with/through them and they don't use its availability as some mean of advertisement. In this scenario, only a manual installation of the core by the user will be considered legal and supported.
|
||||
* While GPL code can't be mixed with non-commercial code, this is a non-issue since this port doesn't contain any GPL-licensed code.
|
||||
* Under european law, where the libretro buildbots are located, linking GPL and non-commercial softwares doesn't produce a derivative work, and doesn't extend the GPL license to the non-commercial work (source [here](https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/eupl/licence-compatibility-permissivity-reciprocity-and-interoperability)). It is unclear whether the same applies in non-EU countries or not.

Proper support for **runahead second instance** is not guaranteed because it doesn't exist in standalone FBNeo unlike the other methods.

The `neogeo` romset is a collection of neogeo bioses, and most of them are considered as optional so they won't cause a "white screen" when missing. Only `MVS Asia/Europe ver. 6 (1 slot)` is mandatory.
|
||||
|
||||
However, having an incomplete romset can still cause various issues :
|
||||
|
||||
* If you are using the "Use bios set in BIOS dipswitch" as "Neo-Geo mode" and the bios set in dipswitches is missing, you'll have a black screen where you can hear some sound playing.
|
||||
* If you are using any of the other choices available in "Neo-Geo mode" and a corresponding bios can't be found, the core will fallback to one of the available bioses.
