Upgraded to widows 11 clean install. Having an interesting issue. If you launch a shortcut trough windows that game works fine but if I launch it through lauchbox nothing happens at all. Some technoparrot games work well but others will start loading and crash when started through lauchbox. They work ok via batch file or technoparrot UI. I have not changed any scripts since windows 10 but on win 11 I am having all these issues. Any ideas?

Hi. I would like to get your suggestions on the most graceful way to add xcloud to bigbox. I can somewhat easily add xcloud to the big box via edge browser link in the PC category. This way I can navigate the entire experience with the controller. Here are some issues though. Launchbox does not know how to exit the edge browser. In other words you can open xcloud but you cannot get back to bigbox. Launchbox does not seem to have an option to add a script to close a pc game. There is an option to run a script on start up of the game or during the pause screen but not on exit. Maybe someone can give a suggestion on how they would go about adding xcloud gaming to the big box. Would you integrate it in the PC category?would you create a different platform? any suggestions would be appreciated.

I agree. I guess it would be even better if we had a scraper app to automatically add newly installed games in the bigbox.

What happened to the export option of "none of the above" from the roms section. We used to use it to transfer shortcuts and other odd files. how is this supposed to be done in this later version?

Hello sir, great theme. Could you please tell me if there is any way to change magnification effect in the platforms view and replace it by the highlighted item like you have it in the games view. thank you. I use this theme as my main theme. great work.

Hi, cookz718 could you post whatever you have so far for the new views. I wanted to poke at it and see if I can suggest anything or modify it to my liking.

Could you clarify what you mean by other views. If you mean alternative views to xbox I am glad to give you some suggestions. If you mean what to do with the community, mixer etc links. Then we can all brainstorm together. Forum is a great place to get some ideas. I am also willing to contribute with graphic art if you need any help. Thank you for taking on this project. This will be a great addon for a lot of people who uses their pc as a console like me. The other day I was even thinking that xbox one x or ps4 pro could be the best all in one machine if they allowed emulators like android and 3rd party apps like kodi.

how is it going. I have you been able to make any more progress?

Ahh, I see. I am not so well versed in coding. I know I was able to change highlight colors in the switch theme so I assumed it was possible for other views but I guess not. What about magnification effect or adding any other property to the object that would give user an indication.

Wow. This theme just keeps getting better. Could you upload a version with all the updated views. Also. I will try to post how to highlight something. For example the switch theme highlights games.

I like this view for platforms. An alternative would be making "psp" full screen and moving platform icons from the left corner to the bottom of the screen abd spread them out. But this would not be an improvement but merrily a matter of opinion. Though like someone said in the post above highlighting a game that is chosen would be a very useful addon.

one idea is to put option items up there. Home=platforms, mixer=recently played, the rest can be restart, shutdown, exit. just one option

wow. looks exactly like the xbox one good job. on the second screeshot where you show the list of games it looks like boxes are overlapping is that on purpose? In the future I wonder if we can come up with the use for "mixer", "comunity" etc links. Keep up the great job

how is it going. any progress yet. let us know if you need help.

I think you could just switch them around and have game logos at the top left. Another idea is to show back of the cover. What about putting game details in the top left. Just brainstorming here.

Again this a very nice theme. The problem with releasing something to the community is everyone has a comment, suggestion or a bug report. Here are my suggestions: 1. I like that you have released it and gradually will be adding new views. 2. I think it would be nice to have a view where instead of game icons we can have box covers because icons are hard to read from a distance. 3. perhaps you could add an alternative platform view like the image above simply because it is a cleaner look and keep the xbox one look in the game section.

You know guys with as much interest as I see for such a contemporary theme, makes me wonder how in the world it took so long for someone to request it. I think launchbox is like at least 7 years old. Anyhow I am very excited about it. Also there is another person currently trying to design a replica of Xbox one theme so feel free to contribute to him as well.

Oh no it sucks. I try to back up my code into the cloud just in case.

Yes, this look is incredibly close to the xbox. I cant wait to see the finished product. What happened to the original Alyssa theme?

I really like this look. One suggestion: could you make the border around the selected game thicker or brighter. or perhaps magnifying effect. it seems it will be easy to loose where the cursor is especially from far away on the tv.

Sir, this is crazy good!! Wow! Get better. I can't wait to see more.

Could you post some screenshots of your workflow process. I think it would be cool to see.

I can only help with the visuals like illustrator and photoshop am pretty good with that stuff. As far as programming goes I would suggest getting a hold of one of the theme developers. One in particular named Grila. He/she is very talented and have done several themes similar to the xbox one theme.

very cool stuff. Thank you for the great work. I think theonerm2 will try to create the theme. So, I am very excited about the possibility.
