Did you add it to LaunchBox? Tools < Options < Integrations < EmuMovies
-
Can you share a screenshot of that emumovies window that doesn't have the Manual checkbox?
-
-
Assuming you went through Tools < Download < Update Metadata and Media for Selected Games..., there was the checkbox option for Manuals in the EmuMovies section. Correct?
-
You can create a new "emulator" that points to the LaunchBox Reader app. Then have your pdf "games" use this 'emulator'.

Depends on where you're looking. If you're bulk downloading media, it will [generically] be an option in the EmuMovies section. If you're editing a single game, the EmuMovies tab will only list the assets it has for that game. aka, not all games have manuals.

I'll try to do some testing this week and see if I can reproduce it. I'm going to guess you never see the LaunchBox game shutdown screen when this occurs.?. If I can reproduce it, my 1st test to "fix it" will be to disable Startup screens. If (more optimistically, when) that works, then I'll play with the new checkbox options in startup screens. And go from there. Though what concerns me is that this [occasional] issue happened in at least LB 13.27, if not before. Also, you're the only one that's mentioned it. Which could mean this is an isolated issue. Or... nobody else actually uses this plugin.

You can read about these updated features in v14.0 by going into Menu - Help - Welcome

Are you finding it happens when using a particular emulator and not with others? Which emulator are you seeing this happen with? Since it's sporadic and only happens sometimes, it makes it difficult to know where to start looking. You indicated it's 'still' doing it [sometimes?] with LB v14.0. Do you recall how far back you 1st started noticing this? Just v13.27? 13.26? Earlier?

Ya! It's already been about 2 full business days since release! Besides, developers don't get weekends off! So that's like almost 4 whole days. Maybe 5 depending on your time zone.

Ran some tests and doesn't look like this plugin is going to work for Spectaculator. The emulator opens a window before opening its separate game window and closing the 1st window. At least, that's what it's looking like here. The plugin sees the 1st window open, then near-immediately close and thinks the emulator has closed. Along those lines, if you play a game the LB startup screen shows. But then when exiting the game, the shutdown screen doesn't show.

MAME and emulating other systems with it in launchbox.

Glad it worked. "Paid"? What's that? Well, I suppose I get 'paid' in flattering comments like that and people saying thanks. But that's all. Now go play some games and enjoy. -

Hmmm. Worked here. Did you make the 2 changes with BB closed, saved them, then opened BB? Either way, it didn't look very good on my end. Namely, the video was offset to the left. And the rating image being cut off. Like @Maddoc1007 said, CZ-v2 doesn't [appear to] have a Wall4GamesView.xaml view file. I believe what's supposed to happen in that case is it will load "the view" from the Default theme [as a backup]. As you can see, these 2 "different" views look.. well different. So no idea where CZ2 is getting it from. If you want to use CZ2 and are ok with the Default's Wall-4 view, what you can do is: Set your theme to CriticalZoneV2 - Default Map a key (or controller button) to Switch Theme Go into Game View (aka select a platform) Press the key/button you mapped Select Default Assuming it was set to the Wall-4 view, you'll now see the Default Wall-4. The caveat is you need to do this for each platform. I couldn't see a way to do it automagically for all platforms. But admittedly I didn't look too hard. And also, I'm not a theme guy. -

You can find available parameters here: LaunchBox Built-in Command Line Variables - LaunchBox The one you want to use is -rompath %romlocation% -rompath %romlocation% apple2e -gameio joy -flop1 Placement of the variable is key. (and you can leave the 2 checkboxes checked) e.g. If you want to do it similar to what you proposed, I suppose you could use: apple2e -gameio joy -flop1 "%romlocation_noquotes%\%romfilename%%romextension%" %noromfile% -

In your Windows display settings, do you have the scale set to something different than 100% (or "recommended")? -
The error indicates something is up with your license file. Only support@unbrokensoftware.com can help you with this. Give a little time for them to reply. May also check your spam folder in case it got placed into there.

A quick search shows there's several different builds of Snex9x-rr. I suggest go to the one you downloaded it from and look for a list of command line parameters to load a lua script.
-
There doesn't appear to a command line parameter to load a lua script. Supposedly there's a "rerecording" version of Snes9x in which does have a command-line parameter to load a lua script.
-
Try... Change your selected LaunchBox Theme to a different theme. Let LaunchBox restart to apply that theme. Change the selected theme back to Default. Let LaunchBox restart to apply that theme.
-
Does this folder exist? ..\LaunchBox\System\Software\LaunchBox Reader\ And does it contain all 236 files? If not, go to Tools < Manage < Plugins... Select LaunchBox Reader Click Install (or update or whatever it may say to add it)

Is There any way to make the startup screen stay ?
JoeViking245 replied to DonellHD's topic in Noobs
When you edit the emulator, in the Startup Screens section there's some new checkbox options. Try playing around with those a little. (not at my main PC right, so don't have the specifics in front of me right now) -

Any chance you have LaunchBox v14.0? Changes were made that "should" fix this. -
Thanks! 😊 That's what we like to hear. You're welcome. Always glad to help and glad to hear it's all working. Now go play some games!
