Just posting a separate thread for the update to this theme. Sharing a few screenshots of the progress....which is about 75% done overall I have spent the last 4 months upscaling and cleaning every single piece of art used in Refried 2.0...as well as making tons of new art for the update. It will cover about 70 more systems than 2.0...and utilize every single view type that big box has. I have not slept normally since I can remember...but,I am happy with how it's turning out...lemme know what you guys think of it so far!

Beta 4 is out with the following changes: Improvement: This update replaced LaunchBox's legacy XML-based local game database with a high-performance SQLite database. Expect a noticeably faster startup time, lower memory usage, and a solid foundation for even more performance gains in upcoming releases Improvement: The included version of VLC has been updated to version 3.0.21, bringing performance improvements, bug fixes, and updated codec support Improvement: Platform Clear Logo and Icon for Bandai Super Vision 8000 is now included when importing this platform Fixed: The auto-import feature for Playstation Vita games using the Vita3k emulator is now working correctly Fixed: Resolved an error that occurred under specific conditions when using UNC paths Fixed: Badges and Star Rating graphics on the GameDetails view should now work as intended (introduced in beta 1) Fixed: Media Carousel alignment under certain conditions in specific custom themes Fixed: Included 3DO Interactive Multiplayer logo not showing up after platform import This is a huge under-the-hood change, maybe larger than anything we've had. The main change being the switch over from one giant XML file to an SQLite database for your local games database metadata. This file is used for many, many things throughout the app, including all imports, metadata, media downloads, the related games feature, and more. We could make all of this go super fast by loading the xml file into memory, but as the database grew the memory footprint naturally also grew. SQLite allows us to keep the majority of the speediness of the old method without the need to load it into memory. From a user perspective, as the changelog entry states, users will notice faster startup times and a lower memory footprint.

Hi everyone, A new beta round has commenced! Thanks to everyone helping us test the latest beta builds! Your feedback is super valuable — please include the following info when reporting any issues: 📝 When submitting feedback, include: Your Windows version A clear description of the issue Whether the issue can be consistently reproduced The steps to reproduce it 🎮 How to Join the Beta To opt into the beta: In LaunchBox, go to Tools > Options > General > Updates Enable Update to Beta Releases When a beta is available, you'll be prompted at startup or can check manually via Menu > Help > Check for Updates 🔌 A Quick Note on Plugins Some beta builds include early versions of official plugins that aren’t yet live in the Plugin Manager. Because of this: You may see update prompts for plugins that are actually newer in the beta. Please avoid updating plugins while using a beta if you're planning to provide feedback — this helps us get accurate data and avoids breaking improvements. Beta 1: New Feature: LaunchBox can now auto-login to RetroAchievements for supported emulators like RetroArch, Dolphin, and PCSX2 New Feature: Added a quick-access RetroAchievements login and status option under Tools > Achievements New Feature: Supported emulators now have a RetroAchievements section with login options, hardcore toggle, and manual credential injection New Feature: Big Box now supports a Random Game action for keyboard and controller inputs to quickly jump to a random game New Feature: Added a new hybrid view in Big Box that combines platform and game views for smoother transitions and theming potential Improvement: Completed checkmark has been replaced with a customizable Progress field (e.g., In Progress, Beaten, Completed) Improvement: RetroAchievements now display detailed achievement types-Progress, Win Condition, and Missable-directly in both LaunchBox and Big Box default themes Improvement: RetroAchievements beaten status is now tracked and automatically updates the new Progress field Improvement: Videos are now properly centered again when using the WMP engine in Big Box Fixed: Improved WHDLoad parsing for Commodore Amiga game imports, fixing multi-version naming issues Fixed: Big Box transitions in platform views now animate in the correct direction consistently Fixed: Video transition animations in some Big Box default theme platform views were not triggering properly Fixed: Bulk editing date fields was not showing the correct value on the confirmation page Fixed: ScummVM Integration plugin updated to handle upstream changes that broke download functionality Fixed: Dolphin Integration plugin now correctly detects the latest version after changes to Dolphin's versioning system Fixed: MAME Import filtering logic no longer incorrectly marks some Music games as Non-Arcade, ensuring they're properly included during import Fixed: Game Details view text binding issue resolved, so "no achievements available" no longer shows incorrectly 🛠️ Beta 1: Features Still in Progress Beta 1 lays a lot of groundwork — but a few things are still evolving. When giving feedback, we’d love your take on how things work today, even if they’re not fully complete. Current WIP Areas: RetroAchievements: More features and polish are coming in future betas Hybrid View: Only one view is available now in the Default theme; expect more layouts, tweaks, and performance updates Progress Field: Early version — more statuses and integrations are on the way Beta 2: Improvement: The RetroAchievements options page will now prompt you if your credentials are incomplete or invalid when attempting to leave the page Improvement: Added support for importing VR compatibility data from Steam; Steam VR-supported games are now auto-tagged with a PC-VR controller in the VR Support category Fixed: Hybrid Views now load game items more efficiently than in Beta 1 Fixed: Custom Themes no longer falsely indicate that Hybrid Views are available Fixed: Horizontal wheels in Hybrid View now properly support the alpha-numeric index Fixed: Search and filter buttons on the alpha-numeric index now function correctly in Hybrid Views Fixed: Resolved a crash that could occur in Hybrid View when navigating with a controller Fixed: Game Completion data now migrates more reliably into the new Progress field Fixed: Opening List View no longer causes a crash Fixed: "no achievements available" no longer incorrectly shows on some LaunchBox theme's Game Details pane (for real this time) Fixed: Release Date field no longer stores time zone data, which could cause the date to shift based on user location Fixed: Rare crash that could occur when rapidly clicking the Favorite or Completed buttons under certain conditions Fixed: Game description could occasionally get stuck on a previous game instead of updating properly Things to keep in mind: For anyone that experienced the issue in beta 1 where your completed status didn't migrate properly to the new Progress field, you will need to close LB and open the settings file and change the HasMigratedToProgress setting to false. Then open LaunchBox back up and report back to us on how it went. The List View should be fixed, but if you are using a custom theme, an update to the theme will be required to see the new field as a column. The Big Box default theme only has Hybrid View 1 currently available. Expect more updates to the Hybrid View, including theming changes, extra views, and performance passes The new game Progress field will be undergoing a major revision that is slated to come in beta 3 Beta 3: New Feature: Game Progress now supports customizable Categories and Values (e.g., "Active / In Progress"). Default options are included, with the ability for users to create their own New Feature: A new Progress badge is available under Badges > Game Attributes > Progress, visually changing based on a game’s progress value (e.g., a "Done / Beaten" game shows a flag). These badges are included in the Nostalgic, White - Filled, and White - Outline sets (update white badges under Tools > Manage > LaunchBox Themes & Media...) New Feature: A new Game Progress Priorities page is now available under Tools > Options > Data > Game Progress Priorities. This page lets users sort progress categories and values, and add or remove unused ones. It’s also accessible via a gear icon next to the Progress field in the Add/Edit Game page New Feature: A new Game Progress options page has been added under Tools > Options > Data > Game Progress, introducing optional automated progress. Users can define rules (e.g., "Over 'x' minutes played" sets status to "Active / In Progress"), toggle the system on/off, and customize their values Improvement: The Progress On-the-fly Filter button options are now grouped by category, with values listed underneath. Clicking a category filters by all its values. Sort order reflects the settings from the Priorities page Improvement: The Progress dropdown in the Add/Edit Game interface now follows the custom sort order from the Priorities page Improvement: Auto-populate filters can now be created using the new Progress field. A new "Starts With" comparison type has been added for filter creation Improvement: The Progress sidebar filter section now displays Categories and Values in a tree structure, sorted according to the Priorities page Improvement: The following mappings are now fully functional in Hybrid View: Set Star Rating, Page Up/Down, Show Achievements, Show High Scores, Show Game Details, View Images, View Model, Play Music, and Random Game Improvement: Videos using the WMP Video Playback engine are now properly centered in Hybrid View, matching other views Fixed: Playing a game directly from the thumbnail lists in Hybrid View now correctly launches the intended game Fixed: Resolved an issue in Hybrid View where background platform videos and foreground game videos could play simultaneously, causing playback conflicts Fixed: You can no longer enter a Game's section in Hybrid View before bindings are loaded. Previously, this resulted in an empty section that stayed blank until exited 💡For people wanting to help test more Hybrid Views, there's a new theme for users on the beta called Aetherial, and should be available for download from the Theme Manager inside of Big Box. With Beta 3, the new Game Progress system is now considered feature complete, and there are a few things existing Beta 1 and 2 users will need to do to make sure everything migrates properly. Open LaunchBox, go to your All Games section. Select all games, open the Bulk Editor, and set Progress to blank (ie. empty). Close LaunchBox and wait for the background save process to finish completely. Navigate to: LaunchBox\Data\Settings.xml Open the file in a text editor and delete any of the following lines if they exist: <HasMigratedToProgress> <HasSetAutoProgressDefaultValues> Now reopen LaunchBox. It should migrate your data again with the new default structure correctly in place. If you're signed into RetroAchievements but your games aren’t showing a "Done / Beaten" progress status, you’ll need to: Go to Tools > RetroAchievements > Scan for Achievements Scan all your games Why? This triggers a rescan to pull in the new "Beaten" status, which the Progress system now uses. Not Seeing Any Progress Badges? This likely means you’re using a badge set that doesn’t include the new Progress badge designs. The Nostalgic pack (included with the update) contains all the new badges. The White - Filled and White - Outline packs need to be updated or downloaded to include the new Progress badges. To update or install badge sets, go to: Tools > Manage > LaunchBox Themes and Media... Beta 4 will address this by falling back to the Nostalgic pack when no badge exist in your current pack Beta 4: Improved: The Big Box Default theme now displays Game Progress, and you can toggle its visibility via Options > Game Details Improved: Game Progress Option pages in LaunchBox received minor wording updates for improved clarity Fixed: The Automatic Game Progress feature will no longer auto-set games to Active / In Progress after just 30 seconds of gameplay—it now correctly uses 30 minutes (or the time you adjust it to) Fixed: Background music now behaves better in Big Box’s Hybrid Views Fixed: Game Progress status (Beaten and Mastered) now update more smoothly when earned Fixed: Badges now fall back to the Nostalgic pack if your current pack is missing a specific badge Fixed: Clearing play time in LaunchBox will now reset Game Progress to Unplayed in applicable scenarios Fixed: Controller badges now show the correct tooltip when mousing over non-selected items—no more mystery tooltips Fixed: Removed the old Unplayed/Completed badges, since the new Progress Badge handles all that and then some For people on previous betas, if you had the issue of games moving to the "Active / In Progress" state if a game had over 30 seconds of play time (instead of 30 minutes), you can either manually bulk edit those games to a different value, or follow the same steps to refresh your game's progress. Same steps below as beta 3. This should be the last time you'll need to do this 🤞 Open LaunchBox, go to your All Games section. Select all games, open the Bulk Editor, and set Progress to blank (ie. empty). Close LaunchBox and wait for the background save process to finish completely. Navigate to: LaunchBox\Data\Settings.xml Open the file in a text editor and delete any of the following lines if they exist: <HasMigratedToProgress> <HasSetAutoProgressDefaultValues> Now reopen LaunchBox. It should migrate your data again with the new default structure correctly in place. Known Issues: Unable to change the minutes for the rule that moves games to Active / In Progress Beta 5: Improvement: Added two new Hybrid View options to the default theme, bringing the total to three Improvement: The default theme in Big Box now displays your Game Progress status Fixed: Adjusting the time on automated Game Progress rules now properly saves (no longer stuck at the default 30 minutes) Fixed: Storefront imports from the EA app now work correctly after adapting to the takedown of EA's deprecated Origin API Fixed: In Big Box, all available options in pop-up menus can now be selected as expected Fixed: Non-English characters in the installer should now display correctly again Fixed: The media installer header now properly reflects the correct version of LaunchBox Known Issues: Default Big Box theme - Platform Hybrid 3 - Alphanumeric Index navigates incorrectly Big Box - FlowBadge element - the correct badge pack is not always being used The EA "fix" ended up being an entire rewrite due to EA taking down their old Origin API. For users that do have EA games, testing would be much appreciated. At this point we have all the default hybrid views we are looking to add to this release, including the 3 default views and the custom theme (called Aetherial) that can be downloaded from the Manage Themes section. Appreciate the help in testing the 4 views. We are approaching the end of this cycle, but we are not quite there yet. Everyone has at least one more week to test the changes of this release out. Beta 6: Improvement: Game Progress value is now included in the Cloud Game Statistic Syncing service (Tools > Cloud > Enable Game Statistic Syncing) Improvement: A new Game Progress button has been added to the default LaunchBox theme for quickly changing a game's progress manually Improvement: Auto-import now supports non-emulated platforms (such as Windows) Improvement: Pause screen's Achievement window now displays the new RetroAchievement types Improvement: Game Progress changes made during gameplay are now better reflected when returning to Big Box Fixed: Automated Progress is now correctly triggered by more import methods, including startup and manual import scans Fixed: Disabling automatic game progress now correctly takes effect in all scenarios Fixed: Xbox storefront logout now properly respects your choice to log out Fixed: Big Box's Hybrid View 3 alphanumeric index now scrolls in the correct direction Fixed: Big Box now better respects your selected badge pack If you would like to learn more about the new Game Progress feature, you can find details here: https://feedback.launchbox.gg/help/articles/6612691 If you would like to learn about theming the new Hybrid views: https://feedback.launchbox.gg/help/articles/3524268

Neither I nor the project are dead. Anyone who says otherwise has no idea what they're talking about and does not speak for me. Work has not stopped since the last version. It has slowed at points because of significant IRL issues which I've neither the obligation nor the inclination to share because they're frankly no one's business but my own. What I can say is that, despite that, I've continued to work on it. The reason that the next version hasn't been released yet is a combination of those issues and, more significantly, that there are major changes/improvements that will be coming in the next version that require massive amounts of time to complete. There have been significant feature additions in the past like manual swapping that caused delays and the changes in this version require multiple times more work than that. It's a process, a tedious and time consuming one, but it's a process that needs to be done. Again and again and again and again and again and again... and eventually I'll come out of the hole, blink at the sun, and be done. But I'm not there yet. And I won't compromise the quality or standards of the project for anyone, just because they want it sooner. If that's too much to ask, that's unfortunately, as they say, tough shit. I don't report to or work for anyone. I have a vision that will be maintained. I have not dedicated years of my life to this project to either throw it away or let anyone else dictate how I should use my own skills and my own efforts and my own time. Gamebase64 has been around for 20+ years. CSDb.dk has been around for 30+ years. The library itself spans 40+ years because they're still being made and released to this day. I have to take all of that, gather it all in my arms, dump it in a pile, and turn it into something manageable, into something presentable, and into something usable, while maintaining the high standards that I hold myself to. And I have to do that, essentially, by myself. There are a number of very significant contributors in this space that this project would not be what it is were it not for their efforts - that cannot be overstated - and I am immensely grateful to those people. I try to name them by name - people like StatMat, sonninnos, the Ultimate Tape Archive team, everyone at GB64 and CSDb and more - and thank them as often as I can because I know firsthand the tedium and the effort that is required for these sorts of projects. But C64 Dreams, itself, is largely a one-man show. That can of course be a disadvantage at times because it means that it takes longer because 99.7% of the work is on my shoulders, but it also means that the end result is exactly what I want it to be. And people are, thankfully, generally pretty positive about that. Even people that have no idea what all work it actually entails (which is to say, essentially everyone), often one of the first things they say is "Wow... this must have been a lot of work." That would be an accurate assessment. I've worked on a number of emulation-related projects over the years that I've released to the public (C64 Dreams of course being the most significant of these) and, in every single case, they were endeavors that I undertook, ultimately, for myself - because I wanted things to be a certain way, because I wanted the experience to be better. But I decided hey, you know what, I'm putting in all this work for things that others might also appreciate, I might as well put this out into the wild. But the other part of that statement is the fact that I've also not released things publicly numerous times over the years for no other reason than just not wanting to deal with everything that entails. When I read comments like this, I feel completely justified in that decision. Not only is it not helpful in any way, not only does it actively undermine your own stated intent of seeing faster progress given the fact that it aggravates the one person that's actually putting in that work, but it also discourages anyone else that might consider for a moment whether or not they should publicly release projects like this. Why would anyone want to deal with that? Why would anyone see this kind of entitled attitude and say to themselves "Yeah, I want to use my time, my money, my mental energy, my sleep, my skills, and the cost of not using those things over the course of years of my life for myself, my family, and my friends... for this guy." When it's done, it'll be released. Until it is, it won't be. Period.

I built a simple old school plugin to help in the matter. If you download the attached file and then extract it to your \\LaunchBox\Plugins folder (not in any subfolder) when LaunchBox is CLOSED and then open LaunchBox. You'll have a new menu option at the bottom of the Tools menu that says Correct Completed => Progress Migration. Click that and you should be good to go. This plugin is SUPER rudimentary and just looks for the old completed flag and if the game has it sets Progress to "Done / Mastered" (without quotes). It WILL overwrite anything that's currently in there and there is no undo. Should get those that lost their data into a better state though and allow them to start enjoying the new Progress field.

(Don’t pretend you haven’t!) Thanks to a great tip from @Retro_Rage you can now set up an entry in LaunchBox that lets you boot directly into the Wii system menu from Big Box. No need to dig through settings—just one click, and you’re back in nostalgic bliss. Let’s be real: who says the Wii system menu isn’t the game of the year? 😏 Sega Master System 2.5D Boxart Pack 🎁 We received an amazing submission from @ABeezy13 , who has re-created the entire Sega Master System front box set in stunning 2.5D! 📦✨ If you're the type of user who likes a little depth to their boxes, this pack has you covered Cover Packs Galore 📼 It's great to see some lesser-known platforms get some love, this time a full cover pack for the ZX Spectrum from @thisvampireheart And @ci2own has been on a roll with full packs for platforms such as the Atari 7800 and Sega Mark III THIS MONTH: January Winter Game Discovery Playlist ☃️ With January here and the winter season in full swing, it’s time to bundle up, grab some hot cocoa, and dive into some frosty fun. ❄️🎮 To celebrate, we’ve added a brand-new Winter Sports Playlist to your Game Discovery Center in Big Box!

Hey All, We are back with another beta round! Thanks to everyone helping us test the latest beta builds. Your feedback is super valuable, so please include the following info when reporting any issues: 📝 When submitting feedback, include: Your Windows version A clear description of the issue Whether the issue can be consistently reproduced The steps to reproduce it 🎮 How to Join the Beta To opt into the beta: In LaunchBox, go to Tools > Options > General > Updates Enable Update to Beta Releases When a beta is available, you will be prompted at startup or can check manually via Menu > Help > Check for Updates 🔌 A Quick Note on Plugins Some beta builds include early versions of official plugins that are not yet live in the Plugin Manager. Because of this: You may see update prompts for plugins that are actually newer in the beta Please avoid updating plugins while using a beta if you are planning to provide feedback. This helps us get accurate data and avoids breaking improvements 🎞️ VLC is now considered legacy If you are reporting any issue in either LaunchBox or Big Box, you must first ensure your video engine is set to Windows Media Player. For Big Box: Go to Options > Video and set the Video Playback Engine to Windows Media Player For LaunchBox: Go to Tools > Options > General > Video Playback and do the same Note that these settings are separate. Changing the setting in one does not affect the other. Always re-evaluate the issue after changing this setting before submitting a report. Beta 1: New Premium Feature: Added a new Screensavers feature to Big Box, letting users discover games with fully themeable views and interact directly with the games shown Improvement: Platform detail views in both LaunchBox and Big Box now display numerical counts for games that are beaten, completed, or mastered, based on Game Progress Tracking stats Fixed: RetroAchievements were not loading in Game Details when using a List View, resulting in no achievement data being shown Fixed: Removed the outdated Change Badge Images option from the Badge menu in LaunchBox, which no longer applied after the media manager overhaul in version 13.21 Fixed: Legacy Big Box themes using Old Default theme code had a stray completed graphic that would always show, regardless of user data Fixed: Selecting a game too quickly in Big Box could prevent LEDBlinky from displaying the correct lighting behavior Fixed: A specific crash related to the MAME High Score system is now caught with error handling, and logging has been added to help identify the root cause The screensaver feature is a bit of a work in progress, but the core principles are there. The view itself is designed to be an alternative to Attract Mode. It cycles through games, giving you another avenue to discover games in your library. There's an action button that allows you to quickly navigate to the Game Details page of the game you are looking at. The default theme currently comes with 3 completed views, and 1 placeholder. By release, all 4 views should be filled in for the default theme. Each theme will have the ability to have up to 4 distinct screensaver views, and theme devs have the full breadth of game bindings at their disposal when building out these views. More detailed theming info for theme devs will be coming soon.

Improvement: Marquee screens and LEDBlinky integration should now function properly with Screensavers Fixes: Games hidden by the user will no longer appear in the Game Discovery Center Fixes: The Beat em Up clear logo now displays correctly under all conditions Fixes: Resetting play time and play count now also resets these values for all additional apps attached to a game Fixes: Hybrid views now provide proper audio feedback when navigating with a controller or keyboard Fixes: Some custom LaunchBox themes were silently failing to poll the selected game, which could prevent item highlighting from working correctly Fixes: In some custom LaunchBox themes, multiple carousel controls in the Game Details panel were not always updating as expected Beta 3: New Premium Feature: LaunchBox and Big Box now include a brand new FFMPEG-based video playback option, delivering more reliable performance, with the old VLC engine now phased out

Not exactly an item worthy of a bullet, but this build is also our first to be digitally signed with our new EV Code Signing Certificate. This helps improve our reputation with the Microsoft SmartScreen filter (as well as other systems) and should reduce warnings when downloading LaunchBox from our website. You likely will not notice anything, as LaunchBox handles the installation for you, but we wanted to note this for posterity. We are also considering this release largely feature-complete for the upcoming version. Beyond some final polish and looking at anything uncovered for your feedback on this beta release, we're in great shape to push out an official release soon. As always, your participation in this is beyond valuable. Thank you for all your help and feedback!

April 2025 This is my current collection, listed for your pleasure. This may help some add to their own collections, or spark some ideas for others. I had some fun trying to come up with new playlists, I hope you find these useful. Downloads of my .xml files attached. Let me know if I'm missing something or if the zipped files don't open. Anything ending with OS = Operating System. FE = Front End. I think this is the end of my run, it's been a blast. Keep on Gaming!

@MJF

My wife had this made for me to put into my game room im making. My name is Gil incase your wondering lol.... I think this is one of the sweetest things ever!

Beta 2 for LaunchBox 13.23 is now available, and it brings even more polish and usability improvements. Here is what is new in this update: New Feature: LaunchBox now opens with a brand new Welcome Wizard that helps users quickly set up their games, preferences, and media so they can jump straight into the fun New Feature: A new automation rule for Game Progress Tracking now allows games to be marked as paused if they have not been played in a user-defined number of days New Feature: A new Media Settings section under Tools > Options > Media > Automatic Imports lets users customize which media files are downloaded during automated imports Improvement: When arranging by Game Progress, sorting now follows your user-defined order for progress values and headers Improvement: Platform icons have been visually refreshed for Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo Game Boy Advance, and PICO-8 to better represent each system Improvement: Screensaver 4 for the Default view is now complete and available for testing Improvement: The “Attract Mode Master Volume” option in Big Box is now called “Idle Master Volume” and now controls both Screensaver and Attract Mode audio. Improvement: Marquee screens and LEDBlinky integration should now function properly with Screensavers Fixes: Games hidden by the user will no longer appear in the Game Discovery Center Fixes: The Beat em Up clear logo now displays correctly under all conditions Fixes: Resetting play time and play count now also resets these values for all additional apps attached to a game Fixes: Hybrid views now provide proper audio feedback when navigating with a controller or keyboard Fixes: Some custom LaunchBox themes were silently failing to poll the selected game, which could prevent item highlighting from working correctly Fixes: In some custom LaunchBox themes, multiple carousel controls in the Game Details panel were not always updating as expected The new Welcome Wizard is a big step toward improving the experience for first-time users. You will only see it on brand new installations, but we would love testing and feedback around it. The goal is not to overwhelm new users but to help them get up and running quickly. By the end of the wizard, users should have some games imported, a few preferences set, and some additional features enabled. Also, with this beta, the fourth and final default screensaver view is now complete. That gives you four unique built-in screensavers to try out. You will now see each one has a name, and theme developers can name their own as well using the ThemeSettings.xml file in their themes. The default theme is a great example of how to do it. As always, thanks guys for helping test the next release.

Made these from the original box art. Popira ポピラ and Jumping Popira ジャンピンポピラ.

Beta 6 is out with the following: Improvement: Game Progress value is now included in the Cloud Game Statistic Syncing service (Tools > Cloud > Enable Game Statistic Syncing) Improvement: A new Game Progress button has been added to the default LaunchBox theme for quickly changing a game's progress manually Improvement: Auto-import now supports non-emulated platforms (such as Windows) Improvement: Pause screen's Achievement window now displays the new RetroAchievement types Improvement: Game Progress changes made during gameplay are now better reflected when returning to Big Box Fixed: Automated Progress is now correctly triggered by more import methods, including startup and manual import scans Fixed: Disabling automatic game progress now correctly takes effect in all scenarios Fixed: Xbox storefront logout now properly respects your choice to log out Fixed: Big Box's Hybrid View 3 alphanumeric index now scrolls in the correct direction Fixed: Big Box now better respects your selected badge pack

When I first started messing with emulation, Satellaview stumped me. I had not a clue what was going on, and found it infuriating as there was (and still is) bugger all definitive info out there. I declared it my nemesis, and vowed to come back to it and make it my bitch. So, here we are. I don't like to teach grandmothers how to suck eggs, but some backstory on the HW is needed for the uninitiated. The Satellaview was a HW add on for the SNES/SFC which used an "online" subscription, download service model, exclusively in Japan. Not only did they provide games for download, they had gaming broadcasts, yes BROADCASTS...like TV back in the day! You'd have to wait a week for the next episode. These broadcast releases were generally supported with SoundLink. This provided high quality audio via the data stream, stuff like CD quality music, celebrity narration, tips and voiced characters. The console isn't generating the SoundLink audio AT ALL, it's being streamed in via the Satellaview connection. The SNES/SFC HW alone can't generate the SoundLink audio. The service/server connection must be in place to generate/emulate every aspect of these specific games. Some won't boot at all unless they're "online". The ones that do work will be missing the SoundLink stuff. They also broadcast full games for download in "runs". Ever notice you have the same game just with different ID's like (2-9)? Well these are the broadcast run dates. As far as I'm aware, these are the same game, just different broadcasts. However, I'm not 100% on this, and is the remaining burning question I have. It would be great to reduce these down to 1G1R without missing out on anything. Other game downloads available were limited play "demos". You got the full game, they just used DRM to block it after so many launches/time period. This isn't an issue in emulation, you can play em as much as you want lol. Aside from that, they also just straight up re-released SFC games to the service. Like direct copies that don't even need the B-SX bios to run. There is a new service that provides the server connection, broadcast like the original at certain times lol. This list is NOT geared towards restoring the original service, it's about what works "offline" without the service. Anyway, rather than go on I'll let the lists do the talking. The categories are functional and hopefully self explanatory. With these you can identify what you want, what you don't and what doesn't work. You'll also find my notes handy. EVERY CURRENT FOUND GAME IS REPRESENTED. EXECPT FOR MAGAZINES, PROTOs & BAD DUMPS. CONSOLIDATION HACKS. These combine all the Satellaview content into one ROM (stuff you want) F-Zero (Japan) (8-4).zip F-Zero (Japan) (7-10).zip BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 - Practice (Japan) (12-6).zip BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 - Practice (Japan) (6-7).zip BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 - Practice (Japan) (10-23).zip BS F-Zero Grand Prix - Dai-1-shuu - Knight League (Japan) (11-3) (SoundLink).zip BS F-Zero Grand Prix - Dai-1-shuu - Knight League (Japan) (11-1) (SoundLink).zip BS F-Zero Grand Prix - Dai-2-shuu - Queen League (Japan) (SoundLink).zip BS F-Zero Grand Prix - Dai-3-shuu - King League (Japan) (SoundLink).zip BS F-Zero Grand Prix - Dai-4-shuu - Ace League (Japan) (SoundLink).zip All of this is combined into one rom hack. The "Deluxe patch by Guy Perfect, PowerPanda and Porthor". It provides the original F-Zero game and adds ALL of the Satellaview content into the game. Making for a tidy package that takes care of all these entries. There's some SoundLink audio/music content that won't be heard unless you use the MSU1 patch in addition. There's a few options but "Original Soundtrack with TheBlurCafe recreated Satellaview stage music" is probably the best if you want it to be as close to the Satellaview broadcasts as possible. You can mess with these independently, but man... save yourself the faff and just use the Deluxe hack. BS Zelda no Densetsu - Map 2 - Dai-1-wa (Japan) (SoundLink).zip BS Zelda no Densetsu - Dai-1-wa (Japan) (Rerun) (SoundLink).zip BS Zelda no Densetsu - Dai-2-wa (Japan) (SoundLink).zip BS Zelda no Densetsu - Dai-3-wa (Japan) (SoundLink).zip BS Zelda no Densetsu - Dai-4-wa (Japan) (Rerun) (SoundLink).zip All of this is combined & translated into one rom hack by MottZilla.

You're still not getting the SoundLink stuff and there's no MSU1 patch, but I don't think there's too much we are missing out on.

The translation-patch is for the 2017 SFC version of the game. I still like to consider this a Satellaview game rather than an SFC one. As it was first and only avaliable on the BS platform.

Version 13.19 - Released February 13th 2025 Release Summary Full Changelog: https://www.launchbox-app.com/about/changelog Improvements: Improved speed at which the Game Details View loads in LaunchBox This update replaced LaunchBox's legacy XML-based local game database with a high-performance SQLite database. Expect a noticeably faster startup time, lower memory usage, and a solid foundation for even more performance gains in upcoming releases LaunchBox has now been upgraded to .NET 9.0 (from .NET 6.0) The LaunchBox Game Details Default view now features Related Games in a dedicated, easily accessible section, for a more performant and user-friendly experience The ability to disable individual Related Games sections has been added in LaunchBox, accessible under Options > Visuals > Game Details The included version of VLC has been updated to version 3.0.21, bringing performance improvements, bug fixes, and updated codec support Fixed: The auto-import feature for Playstation Vita games using the Vita3k emulator is now working correctly Restored the expected behaviour for the top background image in the Default theme's Game Details view. It will now prioritize images from your Background image group before using a Gameplay Screenshot as a fallback Resolved an issue where image loading could be disrupted by multi-threaded gremlins Corrected an error introduced in version 13.18 where dragging and dropping non-ROM game files would incorrectly assign an unassigned emulator value Eliminated the unnecessary prompt to select a RetroArch core for platforms that have already been imported Restoring saves on an Additional App could inadvertently overwrite the save data of the primary game Resolved an error that occurred under specific conditions when using UNC paths Known Issues Getting Crashes on Loading If you’re experiencing crashes with an error when opening LaunchBox or Big Box, please check any third-party plugins you have installed. We’ve received multiple reports from users encountering issues with plugins that haven’t been properly updated for .NET 9.0. To troubleshoot, try temporarily removing all plugins from your LaunchBox\Plugins directory. The plugin causing the issue will likely be referenced in the error report. See this post for more details: Importing DOS Games Crashes There is a known issue when using the DOS importer wizard. Unfortunately, there is no workaround at this time, but it will be addressed in a future beta update. If needed, you can revert to version 13.18 by running the installer found in your LaunchBox\Updates folder. Flickering Issues on Dolphin If you’re experiencing flickering when launching games via Dolphin, try the following: 1. Go to Tools > Manage > Emulators, then select Dolphin. 2. Under the Details tab, find the option “Attempt to hide console window on startup/shutdown.” 3. Uncheck this option and try launching the game again. We’re currently investigating a known issue related to this setting, but unchecking the box should resolve the flickering. Vita3K Not Launching If Vita3K is not launching properly, follow the same steps as Dolphin: Go to Tools > Manage > Emulators, select Vita3K, and ensure that “Attempt to hide console window on startup/shutdown” is unchecked.

OK. Back on topic please. Moving forward I will be deleting non-beta related posts to clean this thread up. If anyone has an issue with that you can PM me directly. Otherwise, it's back to providing testing data so the devs can work on software issues users find. In the future if you have a person gripe feel free to click on the "Monkeys" subforum and have at it to your hearts content.

Hi everyone, LaunchBox 13.21 beta 1 is out now for all willing to help test this release. Thanks to all who help test these beta versions. Don't forget to include the following information in your feedback to help us out with tracking down with any issues you may face with these betas: Your Windows version Description of the issue Can it be reliably reproduced on your end? Reproduction steps You can opt into the beta within LaunchBox by going to Tools > Options > General > Updates and turning on Update to Beta Releases. If a beta release is available, you will get prompted each time the app opens up, or you can manually check using Menu > Help > Check for Updates. Beta 1 includes the following: New Premium Feature: A new section has been introduced under Tools > Manage > LaunchBox Themes & Media, providing users with the ability to browse and download Media Packs. These growing list of packs, created by both the LaunchBox team and the community, include Platform Clear Logos, Badges, Platform Icons, and Controller Input Graphics Packs. The packs are non-destructive, allowing users to seamlessly switch between them on the fly, and can be applied to both LaunchBox and Big Box independently. New packs will be regularly added, and applying or swapping between them is now just a simple click away. New Feature: Content Creators now have the ability to upload Media Packs for community access through the following page: https://www.launchbox-app.com/media New Feature: A new Xemu Integration Plugin has been added, allowing users to download and set up the Xemu emulator directly from LaunchBox Fixed: The freezing issue experienced by some users in Big Box has been resolved Fixed: The false out-of-memory error that appeared when a computer awoke from sleep has been addressed Fixed: The minimize/maximize game launch feature now functions correctly with additional applications Fixed: Game files containing more than one space in a row now launch as expected Fixed: The Nintendo 64DD now displays the required dependency files for supported RetroArch cores Fixed: Long-term stability in Big Box has been improved Fixed: Searching for a game while in certain areas of Big Box would display no results Fixed: Corrupted images cause fewer issues when loading in both LaunchBox and Big Box Beta 2: New Feature: The Big Box Default theme now dynamically displays Controller Input graphics based on the currently selected media pack Improvement: MAME Gambling games are now marked as Casino games allowing you to easily filter them out during imports Improvement: Star Rating functionality has been updated so that each star rating grouping uses the raw value instead of massaged values. For example 3.8 star games now appear in the 3 star grouping instead of 4 star as they did previously Improvement: The Star Rating Arrange By functionality now sorts games by star rating within each grouping Improvement: Enhanced installer/updater to install K-Lite Codec Pack Basic, streamline runtime and DirectX checks, and enable Windows Media Player only when needed Fixed: Several improvements regarding file paths when launching from or pointing to a network location Fixed: Several stability improvements for Big Box to stop the application from freezing after running for extended periods Fixed: Bezels for vertical MAME games being applied with a horizontal layout file Beta 3: Improvement: MAME High Score logic is now more robust, and the following games are now working/working again thanks to the hard work of our community: Batsugun, Bubble Bobble, Dig Dug, Mushihime-Sama Futari Black Label - Another Ver, Viper Phase 1 Improvement: Some minor visual improvements for the installer, along with the ability to download and install WMP, along with the ability to enable it if turned off Fixed: Playlists with no games were incorrectly appearing in the root of the Platform Categories view Fixed: Improved long term stability in Big Box if using the Related Games feature over many days We have the following known issues in Beta 3: The installer is incorrectly skipping enabling WMP if K-lite is already installed - Will be fixed for release We are in the process of bringing back VLC as a deprecated video playback engine (use at your own risk type of deal), but it's not fully ready yet, but you will see the option has reappeared - Will be fixed for release Some computers are still getting false out of memory prompts after returning from sleep - May be fixed for release, or by beta 1 of the next release Platform and Playlist Clear Logo Overrides are not currently functioning correctly in LaunchBox - Will be fixed for release There's a few things that are in need of testing: The Media management changes: heavy changes were made to the 4 media types in order to accommodate this new non-destructive media pack world we now live in. Things to test would be the LaunchBox Themes and media manager, as well as building your own packs under your LaunchBox\Images\Media Packs\ folder and seeing how they work. Check out Platform Clear Logos and see how they work now, especially if you are used to the old way of how things work. If you were having freezes in Big Box, do some overnight tests and see how you fair now. If you ran into issues with your computer showing an out of memory issue after it goes into a deep sleep, let us know how this fairs now. Beta 2 will come out next week and will contain a few more items that will complete the media management system, along with any further fixes that we are looking to put into this release. Thanks for testing guys.
