Mame 0.229 No-Nag
By MadK9
Change for 0.229, Mame no longer carries the suffix 64 on its executable, so either rename the exe to add the suffix back, or update your mame emulators for LB & RL to the non-suffix version. This change was introduced by the mame devs this month.
NOTE: This does NOT interfere with the Leader boards at all.
**This removes the nag screen that informs you if a rom doesn't work correctly, or if at all, if you use this no nag, then please do NOT go to the mame support site with issues with games, please only use if you understand that there will be no help from anyone at mamedev as you are using a modified version of mame.
mame.exe - Normal Mame with Nags removed. For Version 0.229
You are required to download the full 0.229 official pack and install it, then just overwrite the exe with the replacement, this covers any changes the mame devs may have made to the support files.
After you have done this, make sure you copy the folders artwork, ctrlr, cheat, hlsl, ini, folders and the ini files from the root of your original mame folder, and move/copy them to the new install.
make sure in the mame.ini file you have the following set.

Mame 0.227 No-Nag
By MadK9
New Year, new release.
This release is not a simple drop into Mame, you will have to use a full mame 0.227 setup from mamedev.org, this is due to changes that have been made since 0.226. Once you have that installed just drop this version on to it and overwrite.
If you already have a Mame install that's not 0.227 i suggest renaming your current folder and make a new one, install 0.227 and the no-nag, then from your original Mame copy the folders artwork/cfg/ctrl/hi/ini/nvram/roms and any ini files from the root folder (mame.ini/plugin.ini/ui.ini). And overwrite when asked too.

Playtime Tracker
By Grila
New Version 1.4
Removed "Reset Playtime" function from BigBox as requested by @klepp0906 and @Blazer
New Version 1.3
Added a visual playtime setter/editor
New Version 1.2
Fixed another string error that would sometimes cause the playtime to not record. Thanks @TheNewClassics. Everything should work now but please don't hesitate to let me know if any other problems arise.
New Version 1.1
Please update to the new version. I caught a string error that would prevent any playtime from going over 23 hours. The new version will keep all your game's previous playtime intact. Also, you can now reset a game's playtime in LB from the selected games right click menu (@Krakerman).
Drop the .dll in your LaunchBox\Plugins directory and start tracking how long you play your games. The playtime is recorded as a custom field so it is visible in LaunchBox on the game details bar and in BigBox in the game details. See the screenshots for reference.
Known Issues:
Per the plugin API (http://pluginapi.launchbox-app.com/html/a40a286d-83c6-e179-940c-7e4166d567fe.htm) this may not function correctly with all platforms (ie. Steam) but I have tested it with RetroArch, Dolphin, and PCSX2 without problems.1,094 downloads

Rom Breakout - M2,MVS,M3,DEMUL etc 0.225 SET
By Solo
Hello,
Since I use different emulators for many MAME roms, I decided to create these bat files to break them out.
Thanks to the ones that created the initial ones, I just went and did the after work
The BAT files will grab all zips and chd folders and move them to a new folder. It's based on Non-Merged romset so it should work excellent on split and merged.

Mame 64 0.0225 No Nag
By Aevans0001
This is an updated NoNag. Mad9k is no longer doing them.
Here is a temp fix for future versions as I only update once a year.
Mame dev has come up with a compromise to where you can put this line in your ini file and then the nags will not show up for a certain amount of time.
Place this in ui.ini under UI MISC Options:

PackMyGame
By Axenn
Repository: https://github.com/daerlnaxe/Pack-My-Game
Explanations in English: https://github.com/daerlnaxe/Pack-My-Game/blob/master/README.md
Explications en Français: https://github.com/daerlnaxe/Pack-My-Game/blob/master/README-FR.md
Beta version: don't change anything in LaunchBox. Use it only with roms !
What it does:
It copies then compress everything about a game contained in the db of LaunchBox app. It generates a short xml file with the main information about the game It takes images, pdf manual, video, music, rom file. It takes also the cheatcode files if you fill the path ('GameName-.') It generates a tree view file. 7z and zip compression Backup datas about a game from LaunchBox xml When PackMe run, creates an enhanced xml file, adding missing paths, additionally to the original backup Permits to choose manually video, music, manual if db don't mention paths. Contextual menu permits now to make some operations to construct the workfolder, to compress it later.
Why ?
Because as a french gamer i wanted to save everything i fill about my games and keep it for later, just in case there was a problem, reinstall or whatever. Note
Use it only with roms. Don't move or delete files from the source (never) It asks before to overwrite roms, manuals, music, video that are in the working directory meanwhile the copy (the target directory) Currently it asks a global permission to overwrite for the image/pictures files, even if there is no image file in the the destination folder. The clones are added only if they are grouped with a main in LaunchBox Compression 7z and zip It logs everything during the game treatment in a window, and a file. TODO
Work in progress: Eliminate duplicates images files function in contextual menu (md5 calcul) Filter platforms Double Security on work folder Find a better way to handle images files Correct the english version Carroussel to see image files to overwrite etc... (if necessary) Mode silent without box prompt ? (All overwrite) Mode silent without log window Edit info in short list ? => it means to load total information of the game. Splashscreen on loading Ameliorate config with own browser system and box path editable md5 Compareason ? Move VFolder, HFolder, copyfile, reconstruct path (set a security basic path option)
About EBGame.xml and OBGame.xml.
This xml files are a first step to reinject games in LaunchBox xml files, but keep in mind, it's a beta. This is why i didn't make a function to do it, to test,before, the reliability, so wait before to do it manually, please, or do it at your own risks.

PCSX2 Configurator Next
By alec100_94
PCSX2 Configurator Next for LaunchBox
PCSX2 Configuartor Next is a plugin for LaunchBox that allows users to easily configure PCSX2 on a per-game basis. The plugin also allows for pre-optimised configs to be downloaded from right within LaunchBox for a whole host of popular PS2 games, from Zombeaver's excellent PS2 Configuration Project.
Installation
The plugin is easy to install and simply needs to be downloaded and extracted. The archive contains a folder called "PCSX2 Configurator Next", this should be placed in the root of the "Plugins" in the user's LaunchBox directory. Any previous versions of the plugin should be removed before attempting to install this version.
General Usage
The plugin is relatively straight forward to use, but has been changed significantly from previous versions. You will first need to have PCSX2 (1.5.0 development build) setup as an emulator in LaunchBox. Then right click on a PS2 Game and choose "PCSX2 Configurator" from near the bottom of the context menu. This will present a menu of options:
"Create Config" - Creates a new config for the game in question based on the users current PCSX2 settings, If a config already exists this will overwrite that config with a new one.
"Download Config" - This will download one of Zombeaver's Config and set it up to be ready to play for the selected game, this will be greyed out if now config is available, and will change to "Update Config" if a new update is available for the downloaded config.
"Remove Config" - This will remove the current config for the selected game, and will be greyed out if there is no current config.
"Configure With PCSX2" - This will open PCSX2 with the config for the selected game loaded, allowing you to customise your config for the selected game (Downloaded Config's can also be tweaked). Once a game has a created config this can also be done using LaunchBox's built in "Configure" from the games context menu. Both these options will be greyed out if there is no config for the selected game.
There is also a "settings.ini" file created in the plugins folder ("%LaunchBoxDir%/Plugins/PCSX2 Configurator Next"), this can be tweaked manually but most settings don't need to be touched in most cases. Some people may wish to change the "GameConfigsDir" which is where the created configs are stored, this deafults to the users PCSX2 "inis" directory. There is currently no inteface to modify these settings, but that is planned in a future version.
Version Info and The Next in The Name
This version of the plugin is the successor to the original PCSX2 Configurator plugin, with a completely re-worked codebase from that version, and full compatibility with LaunchBox.Next (which is now the current version of LaunchBox). The main reason "Next" was added to the name is to initially seperate it from that (now discontinued) verison of the plugin. This release is currently in Beta and the "Next" from the name will probably be dropped eventually for a stable release with more features.
Credit and Support
I have personally put a lot of time and effort into all versions of this plugin, with it essentially being my free-time pet project for the last year and a half. Though I know the plugin would not be what it is today without Zombeaver who really helped me to bring this plugin to the next level, by allow me to integrate his PS2 configurations into it as well as creating artwork and helping me test the plugin. I would also like to say a big thank you to spectral, neil9000, and kmoney for helping me out with testing, and of course Jason Carr for making LaunchBox and implementing some of my requested changes into the plugin engine. I intend to keep working on this plugin, and fix any reported bugs as well as update the plugin with new features. So if you have any problem or feature request's hop over to the plugins thread on the forums and let me know. The project is also open sourced under the MIT license and can be found on my github.
UPDATE (JUNE 2020): This Plugin is now in maintenance mode, and is nearing end of life. I am currently working on a standalone version that will serve the same purpose, which will also be made to work with LaunchBox. The progress of that can be found here

MAME 0.224 No-Nag
By MadK9
There was no real change to last months codebase for Warnings.
This could be the last No-Nag i release as the Mame devs maybe adding a softer option for game warnings, some code was added in the previous release but was rolled back just before release, notes were added in mame 0.223 as to what may be acceptable in future builds, the following are the notes as posted. As this may or may not appear in the next release i will wait until then to make a decision on future versions.
-Revert "ui: allow to skip warning popup at start" [Vas Crabb] * This reverts commit 74f456df945cd1720dc4d6bc105f64c13e62ced8. * I will allow the feature with the following conditions: - No skipping red warnings. - A key-value map of device shortnames and yellow warnings must be stored in the .cfg file, along with a timestamp of the last time the system was run and the last time a warning was shown. - On starting a system, the map of device shortnames and yellow warnings must be built and compared to the one loaded from the .cfg file. If it doesn't match, if the system hasn't been started in seven days, or a yellow warning hasn't been shown in 14 days, the warning is not to be skipped. There is an added option in the TAB menu in game to see any Warnings that have been suppressed on loading a game, showing if the rom has any known issues, please use this option to check the game/rom before using any online forums for help with the game/rom in question
NOTE: This does NOT interfere with the Leaderboards at all.

Future Pinball Loader for Launchbox
By JaysArcade
EDIT: I hope the file was useful to the community in the past, but it's no longer needed to launch FP tables in Launchbox. See @sundogaks post here about launching tables.
This zip contains a simple AutoHotKey executable and script that will help with loading Future Pinball tables.
The Problem: Future pinball requires the /open "Drive Letter:\full path\table_name.fpt" /play /exit commands to be specified individually for each table, otherwise the table will not load. Launchbox currently will not launch Future Pinball on its own without doing a little extra work in each table's settings. You have to manually enter this on each table which can be time consuming if you have a lot of tables to load.
Usage: Simply place the FP.exe file in your Future Pinball folder and point to it instead of the Future Pinball executable when setting up Future Pinball as an emulator in Launchbox. That's it.
Roll your own: If you are un-trusting and don't want to use the files in the zip (I don't blame you), you can download AutoHotKey and compile your own. The code is below. I've also included the non compiled FP.ahk so you can compile that if that suits you. That way you can open it in an editor to check the code before compiling.
Run, "Future Pinball.exe" /open "%1%" /play /exit

Launch Platforms
By JoeViking245
This is a BigBox plugin that allows you to launch a game/application directly from the Platform Wheel View level.
Setup:
- Right click on the downloaded LaunchPlatform.zip and click "Unblock" and then OK
- Open the zip file and copy the folder "LaunchPlatform into your ../LaunchBox/Plugins/ folder
- Open LaunchBox and create a new Platform. (i.e. Music Box Alpha)
- In the lower right hand corner click "Add"
- Fill in (at minimum)
Title:
Platform: (select the Platform you just created)
(click on "Launching") Application Path:
- Click OK
- Now click "Tools" and [at the bottom] click "Launch Platform Setup"
- Oh... you might first want to create a backup of the Theme folder you use for BigBox. You shouldn't need it, but always a good idea.
- Step 1 In the Available Themes List will be all themes you have. Click on the one you use (the one you backed up) then click "Setup Theme". This will now be listed in the Modified Themes List. At any time you can undo the changes made by selecting the Theme in the Modified Themes List and click "Restore Theme".
- Step 2 Select the Platform (Music Box Alpha) in the Available Platforms List and click "Add Platform" (or you can just double-click it). This will move it to the Platforms Ready List. When you are done, click "Done".
- Now start BigBox. (look for the 3 horizontal lines in the upper left, click it and click "BigBox")
- Scroll through your Platforms wheel until you find your new Platform and select it.
If all goes well, this will directly launch your program (Music Box Alpha) without going into the games wheel. And if things really go well, when your system is in Attract Mode, it may stop on this Platform, but then move on to the next Platform without trying to go to the games wheel.
@jayjay is the brains behind getting this to work, but I'm the one that threw it all together. So credit goes to where credit is due. (you decide ) If something's not working right, go ahead and post here and it'll get looked at. And possibly even get resolved.

GamestreamLauncher (For Custom Scripts, Multiple Monitors, Miners, etc)
By loueradun
GamestreamLauncher is a simpler launcher application to help assist with operations to be completed before and after a gamestream session. This can be used to launch any application, but I find it works great with BigBox as a launch point for my PC and emulator games.
Workflow on Gamestream Session start:
Disable GPU Miner through Awesome Miner if running Disable non-primary monitors if present Run a custom script Launch Game (BigBox) Workflow on Session end:
Run a custom script Enable non-primary monitors that were previously disabled Enable the GPU Miner through Awesome Miner if it was previously disabled Close the Gamestream session gracefully Installation:
Copy the extracted folder to your desired location. Run GamestreamLauncher.exe to configure the launcher. Add a custom game in Geforce Experience that points to GamestreamLauncher.exe. The launcher is configured with the config utility when launching it for the first time. You can run the config utility again by deleting the user.config file that can be found at %localappdata%\GamestreamLauncher under the proper version.
Known NVidia GameStream issues this launcher will resolve:
Launching a game while a miner is active GameStream will "flicker" when multiple monitors are active during the stream - https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/1022778/gamestream/flickering-with-gamestreaming-on-new-windows-builds-/ The launcher is open source and can be found on github here: https://github.com/loueradun/GamestreamLauncher

EpicFail ScummVM Launcher NEW
By epicfail
Version 4.0.0
Now works with the ThirdParty folder. Also added a way to convert the BatRunner roms to launch straight from Launchbox instead of running through the batrunner and bat files. This feature is new.
Version 3.4.0
Big changes in this one. Some may like it, some may hate it. I now rewrite your ini file to help you out and maintain portability.
New game menu item to Configure ScummVM. ScummVM will open with that game selected. No need to scroll through a big list to find/guess the specific game to configure. When using my menu items to configure scummvm, I will automatically rewrite absolute paths as relative paths to your ini file. I also gave you the Configure ScummVM from the Tools drop down. During generation of the *.bat launchers I will check that you have the emulator set up, if not I will fix it for you. Can't change ScummVM path or launcher path now. Just go with it, life will be better. Simple and Advanced modes. Advanced mode is what your used to. Simple mode is one click setup, creates full list of launchers, and emulator creation. It will ask if you want to filter the non english languages. It should be easy if it works the way I intend.
click on the Tools->ScummVM Import Tool (simple) click on the Tools->Import->Rom Files to import the bat files as ScummVM games. Now scummvm can be portable easily in 3.3.1-plugin, you can rewriting the ini file. One click will read every single setting out of the ini file and find all absolute paths, check if the path is valid, than convert then to be relative to the launchbox directory.
I owe you guys some new instructions.
Updated with relative path for better travel!
ONLY the DLL is updated... See the update note below lots of new stuff.
uses launchbox built in ScummVM by default uses a local scummvm.ini by default, import existing to a local or create new fresh local scummvm.ini, all built in find and remove existing epicfail files. better rom names for smoother mass import BatRunner.exe installed from gui, must stay in your launchbox folder, point to it as your scummvm emulator. (BatRunner.exe is just the ScummVMimport.dll renamed and move to the launchbox main directory. Will prompt you when you create your launcher bat files. So its automatic you won't have do any thing to create it) Just point to it as the application for you scummvm emulator if your using the bat files. Updated filtering with priority duplicate control. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Older Version 2.0.5 from the videos ScummVMLauncher.exe
NEW AND IMPROVED - NOW WITH RETROARCH FEATURE
This is the scummvm launching system I use with launchbox. Most importantly this allows you to get art and videos for BB. It works for me, so I'm sharing it.
SETUP LAUNCHERS:
Put these ScummVMLauncher.exe files in your scummvm directory same directory as your scummvm.exe. I'm using 1.9.0.2-win32 currently. If you already setup my old launcher you can just delete the files and the launchers folder.
This is how I use it.
1st is to open your ScummVM and do a "Mass Add" if you don't know what that is hold the shift button down and the add button on scummvm will change. You could skip this if you already have your games loaded in scummvm, but I recommend starting fresh. After that close the scummvm program and assuming you have the microsoft .net framework installed run the ScummVMLauncher.exe. From the window, select Tools->load scummvm.ini this will attempt to automatically find your file in %appdata%ScummVM/, if its not there just navigate to the directory that you keep it and select your scummvm.ini file, then select open. This will grab the scummvm.ini file selected and parse it. You should see the gui populate and look similar to the screenshot. The gui should be intuitive. Filter the games the way you want to. Select Tools->Generate Launchers SETUP IN LAUNCHBOX:
Setup the emulator for ScummVM and pick the ScummVMLauncher.exe file as the executable. import roms - pick the launchers folder to import. Enjoy in BB, with art and videos!

Online Video Links
By SsjCosty
This plugin allows you to add online videos to your game, which will appear on the game's menu both in LaunchBox and BigBox. Mainly, it supports YouTube and Steam videos. The videos get played by LaunchBox's portable VLC distribution, so you don't have to worry about having the right video player installed.
LaunchBox Interface
There is a new menu item on the game's menu in LaunchBox, allowing you to manage your game's video links, which can be seen in the following screenshot, along with two sample video links. Once you open the video manager dialog, follow the on-screen instructions (and click "More info") to add, edit or remove your video links.
BigBox Interface
In BigBox, the video links can be played from the game's "Additional Apps/Versions" menu, as exemplified here:

**This removes the nag screen that informs you if a rom doesn't work correctly, or if at all, if you use this no nag, then please do NOT go to the mame support site with issues with games, please only use if you understand that there will be no help from anyone mamedev as you are using a modified version of mame.
mame64.exe - Normal Mame with Nags removed. For Version 0.222
Its recommended to download the full 0.222 official pack and install it, then just overwrite the exe with the replacement, this covers any changes the mame devs may have made to the support files.
After you have done this, make sure you copy the folders artwork, ctrlr, cheat, hlsl, ini, folders and the mame.ini file from your original mame folder, and move/copy them to the new install.
For those of you on old installs make sure in the mame.ini file you have the following set.

Platform Consolidation Script
By ikinsey
I had a lot of duplicate MS-DOS games, and when I tried to use the "Consolidate roms for MS-DOS" tool, it would just say "The selected platform is not an emulated ROM-based platform." But I had so many duplicates that not consolidating them was not an option. So I wrote a script that imitates what the tool did for my PlayStation library.
It seemed to work for me; now I only see one entry per game and I have the option of "additional apps" for the others.
Usage instructions:
- Download Python: https://www.python.org/downloads/
- Double click on the script or run it via command line `python path/to/file`
- Enter a full path to the platform you wish to consolidate
- Note: the platform should not have been consolidated already (i.e., it should have no additional apps for any game)
- Platform XML files are located at LaunchBox\Data\Platforms
- Script will generate a file called {file name}-consolidated; backup your previous XML file and then rename the new file to take its place
- Make sure to remove all other XML files for the newly consolidated platform from the Data\Platforms folder or Launchbox may use one of those old/undesired files
Here is the original question I asked on the forums about solving this:

vidswitch
By ninken
So I wrote a quick command line tool, that does what I personally think that Launch box should do.
We should have options on how a program is executed.
It’s written in C# and is on Github feel free to use any of this code to give launchbox some application launching options.
https://github.com/ninken/vidswitch/releases/tag/1.0
Vidswitch is a simple command line application that allows you to launch a application maximized on any monitor, and can rotates that monitor. (Requires Dotnet 4.0 or higher)
Parameter 1 - Display Number [ 1, 2, 3, 4, .... ]
Parameter 2 - Rotation [ 0, 90, 180, 270 ]
Parameter 3 - Application to launch
Example: vidswitch 2 90 "c:\windows\system32\notepad.exe"
Result: Launches notepad.exe on display 2, flips the monitor 90° and maximizes Notepad.
After Notepad closes, it returns the monitor back to it's starting orientation.
