Hi - Sorry for posting this question in multiple threads but Zombeaver you seem to know this system the best. I got my atr files working fine as stand alone using this emulator does this work with Launchbox?

OH I am trying to use the atr files

I was always told all required files are in the games zip file in a non-merged set. Checking one of the CPS1 games, they're not. I'd assume your titles.clones folder held a complete set, which should also have the file "qsound_hle.zip". Is that in Device file in there? Edit: I stand corrected. The file inside of qsound_hle.zip ("dl-1425.bin") is inside the CPS1 ROMs that require it [in a non-merged set].

Had to ask. Can you share some screenshots of a game's settings for one that isn't working through LaunchBox? Edit the game and show one of the Launching section and the Emulation section.

Yes of course, all things work in MAME!

A non-merged set will have all the necessary file inside the respective games zip file (including BIOS). I would open stand-alone MAME, go to one of the CPS1 games and try to launch it. It'll tell you what the error is if it doesn't start.

yea, using the arcade Italian database named it that.

Oh holy crap that worked. Now I am having issues with cps1 2 and 3 not opening. I think my BIOS files are not being seen. Is there a place they need to be? This is a non-merged set with my bios files in bios folder under my the same games folder.

I'd try adding another slash to the end of your path in your ini. The path having the period in it could be throwing things off since that file path as is reads as "The file called 'title.clones' located in 'D:'"

Are your ROMs actually located in a folder on the D drive called titles.clones? Seems an odd folder name.

Hello sir. Yes, I do not have that in my current options.

Remove this. If you have an INI file you've put the rom path in this switch isn't needed. If you still want to use it for any reason the percent signs (%) would need to be double quotes ("). The percent sign is an invalid character for what you're trying to do and could potentially be the cause of your issue.

Hello everyone. I was able to figure this out. if you add the "files" and not the "Folder" it will give you all you need. This can be closed. Thank you all.

Hello everyone. I recently made a topic about Naomi and was able to fix that issue. Now, I am looking into my MAME .264 import and after the import nothing will open under Launchbox. Everything does load under MAME .264 by itself. I have changed the mame.ini to know where my roms are. I have changed the command lines to have and to have not options in there. My examples are -artwork_crop -skip_gameinfo -waitvsync -nofilter -keyboardprovider dinput -rompath %D:\titles.clones% and -keyboardprovider dinput In honesty, I am unsure where we tell launchbox where our MAME files are, but I don't think that is the problem. I have updated from Mame .260 to Mame .264 using the full import option and that did not work as well. I have updated my sets and whole nine yards, but nothing has worked. Any help would be great on this.

Hey all, I have downloaded a few different builds and want to combine them into one build. Is there any way to do this without installing emulators, image packs, etc.? All the emu's work on the separate builds and wanted to spare the time working out and re-setting them all up Thanks in advance for the help Samo

Hi All I am jumping on this thread here. I want to get this working in LB. I got Altirra working stand alone. Pretty cool to see an emulated computer from back in the day. In the root folder of the emulator i set up a folder called games. I have a few games in there for testing. Any instructions? other than point LB to the emulator and the games folder? is that really it?

@superrob3000 Awesome feature! Thanks for implementing it in such as short time, confirmed it does work in my setup and I could finally display those video snaps on my arcade topper monitor and have sounds playing 😄 Hope this benefits those that use their primary screen to display coverflow but video snap playback on other monitors!

I'm working on it. Lot lot of work to do, so i'm far from finish. It's just the background image that change for the other gun, but i intend to do dedicated layout in some case

Not sure what you mean. That tool doesn't remove any physical ROM files.

If it's what JoeViking said you can go into Device Manager and adjust the power options on your USB device to NOT go to sleep which would stop that.
