- Mismatch Issues: Users often attempt to use "Modern" Final Burn Neo ROMs or older "MAME 0.139" ROMs with FBA2012. This results in graphical glitches, sound failures, or the emulator failing to launch games entirely.
- The "FBA 2012" Set: The standard archive generally recognized as the "FBA 2012 Updated" set is based on v0.2.97.39 (commonly tagged as "FBA2012 (v0.2.97.39)").
- CRC Verification: The emulator relies on specific CRC32 checksums for ROMs (specifically the parent ROMs). If the checksum does not match the internal driver database of the 2012 version, the game will not load.
