Sega Lindbergh

The Sega Lindbergh is an arcade developed by Sega. It was launched in 2005. Designed to be the successor to the Sega NAOMI 2, Lindbergh is the first arcade machine of many to be based on PC architecture with linux OS instead of a home console based on Xbox 360. Features arcade games like After Burner Climax, House of the Dead 4 and OutRun 2 SP SDX.

Five variants were made, each with their own color: Yellow, Red, Red EX, Blue and Silver. For more information about this arcade machines, the article on Sega Retro provides much of it.

This system scrapes metadata for the “lindbergh” and “arcade” groups and loads the lindbergh set from the currently selected theme, if available.

Quick reference

BIOS

No Sega Lindbergh emulator in Batocera needs a BIOS file to run.

ROMs

Lindbergh loader doesn't allow any space in file or folder name. Use underscore instead.

Place your Sega Lindbergh ROMs in /userdata/roms/lindbergh. For Batocera to detect a game, you must have a blank file with '.game' extension in the location where the rom will execute from. For best compatibility, use game ID from the working games list below as the file name.

i.e.: for Ghost Squad Evolution game, create ghostev.game in the /userdata/roms/lindbergh/Ghost_Squad_Evolution/vsg_l directory.

Some games (mostly driving) require extra options in the test menu. You can skip it by making sure your game has the exact same revision (e.g.: initiad5exa.game if you have Initial D 5 (Export) (2.0)) as mentioned in the game list below.

Lindbergh Game Installer Script

You also have the option to use the Lindbergh Game Installer Script to automate the installation of your Lindbergh games. Prerequisites include having dumps in .bin format. Please consult the readme for more information.

Emulators

Sega Lindbergh loader

As of Batocera v42, the Lindbergh system is supported, including light gun and steering wheel devices (force feedback not yet supported).

If you experience control issues with your controller in a game, try enabling SDL2 controller mode.
