Well done, this is exactly what was needed.

There's a problem: when running the game using a batch file (.bat file), the controller settings work fine, but when I run the game from the launcher using the batch file without using the Demul Emulator, I can't exit the game using the ESC key. Is there a way to configure the ESC key to exit the game?

One option you can do is add an Additional App to the game(s).

1. Create a new text file and save it somewhere where you can find it.
   • Give it a name something like ExitDemul.txt
     • e.g.  D:\MyScripts\ExitDemul.txt
2. in the text file put:

   • $Esc::
     {
       WinClose, ahk_exe demul.exe
       ExitApp
     }

3. Save, close and then rename the file to have a .ahk file extension.
   • e.g.  D:\MyScripts\ExitDemul.ahk
   • Make sure it's NOT saved as ExitDemul.ahk.txt
4. Add a new Additional App to the game
   • Name it whatever you want.  e.g. Exit Demul
   • Set the Application Path to ThirdParty\AutoHotkey\AutoHotkey.exe (click Browse and navigate to and select that exe file)
   • Set the Command-Line Parameters to where your file is located. WITH quotes.
     • e.g. "D:\MyScripts\ExitDemul.ahk"
   • Check Automatically Run Before Main Application
   • Click OK to save and close

 

To add the Additional App to all the games at once, you can use this plugin.

Bulk Add/Remove Additional Applications - Third-party Apps and Plugins - LaunchBox Community Forums

 

 

Another option is to convert the batch files to AutoHotkey scripts and add the escape sequence in them.

A 3rd Option is to setup as described in SETUP DEMUL WITH LAUNCHBOX and PER GAME CONTROLS AND LB BAT FILES INSTALL: in the description

edit the batch files, have them as the Additional App and use the emulator as normal.

This way is a bit more work as there's no automagical way to do it.

• Edit the batch files, removing the 2nd to last line (The "Start" line)
  • All 8 files, separately
• Use the batch file in found in 
• Import the ROMs as normal.
  • aka. The games path points to the ROM file instead of the batch file
  • There's a plugin for that
• Set them to use your DEmul emulator
  • In the Running Script for the emulator, add

  • SetKeyDelay, 0, 50
    $Esc::Send !{F4}

     

• Add the [modified] batch files to their respective games as Additional Apps
  • Give it a name
  • Set the app path to the respective batch file for the game
  • Check Automatically Run Before Main Application
  • Save and Close
  • Yes, these will need to be done one-at-a-time for all 8 games, because each game needs its own batch file

 

I didn't see this until after I updated it. Thanks @JoeViking245 for the help and @zugswang for the link. I'll add it to the description.

I went with bats for the per game controls as it's the easiest for everyone else. Just need to point to em with additional apps. Feel free to share! Should I bang this up on the Demul discord too? Never know if that's cool!

第三種方法是按照 「使用 Launchbox 設定 Demul 以及為每個遊戲設定控制和 LB BAT 檔案安裝」部分中的說明

編輯批次文件，將其作為附加應用程式添加，然後像往常一樣使用模擬器。

這種方法比較麻煩，因為沒有自動完成的方法。

• 編輯批次文件，刪除倒數第二行（「開始」行）。
  • 所有8個文件，分別
• 使用在以下位置找到的批次檔： 
• 像往常一樣導入ROM。
  • 換句話說，遊戲路徑指向的是 ROM 檔案而不是批次檔。
  • 有個插件可以實現這個功能。
• 將它們設定為使用您的 DEmul 模擬器
  •  在模擬器的運行腳本中 新增

  •  

• 將修改後的批次檔作為附加應用程式新增至各自的遊戲中。
  • 給它取個名字
  • 將應用程式路徑設定為遊戲的相應批次檔。
  • 檢查是否在主應用程式運行前自動運行
  • 儲存並關閉
  • 是的，這需要逐一對全部 8 個遊戲進行操作，因為每個遊戲都需要自己的批次檔。

 

Thank you for your answer. The new update has perfectly solved my problem.
