You might be able to just..., in the Associated Platforms section for the emulator, for that platform, check the box Extract ROMs.

Not all emulators have been tested. But the ones that have been all work. What emulator specifically are you using for the console Atari 2600? You can always manually edit the ini file (\Plugins\BezelLauncher\Bezels\Atari 2600\Atari 2600.ini). Remember, for your emulator settings, you will need to disable fullscreen. My guess is that's the issue with Daphne. -

Ok, so it's not "it as stoped working in launchbox 13.25 the new update of launchbox." It's that 2.2.0 never worked for you. That's 2 different things. Whew! That's good to hear! Thanks for looking into it more on your side. I will look further into: not having any bezels creates an issue (which it seems to have done on your 2nd build). Thanks again. -

You sent the "SetupLog...txt" (which is fine). Can you also send the corresponding "log....txt" file. Or better yet, zip up the "Logs" folder and attach it here. Also, to clarify some things: LaunchBox v13.25, v2.1.2 and v2.2 both do not work? LaunchBox v13.24, v2.1.2 does work? LaunchBox v13.24, v2.2 does not work? aka: v2.2 never worked for you? -
New Demul not loading roms through Launchbox
JoeViking245 replied to Jayinem's topic in Troubleshooting
It loads the same. Can you share a screenshot of your (LaunchBox) emulator settings. Make sure to check all 3 boxes (No quotes... etc). Also show the Associated Platforms section. And make sure the ROMs can be "seen" by DEmul. Easiest way is to place them in its /roms/ folder. -

I'm still not able to reproduce the error. I'll try some things over this next week and see if I can break it to give me that error and see what I can do to fix it (provided I can get the error to appear). -

What's the error? Can you share a screenshot of it? If you attach (drag & drop the file here. Don't copy/paste the contents) the Log file from when it errored from \LaunchBox\Plugins\BezelLauncher\Logs\, I might be better able to help you figure out what's wrong. -

JoeViking245 replied to JoeViking245's topic in Third-Party Applications and Plugins (Released)
A quick test shows it's working here. Can you attach (drag & drop the file here. Don't copy/paste the contents) the most recent Log file from \LaunchBox\Plugins\BezelLauncher\Logs\? -
Go here: LaunchBox for Android - LaunchBox Scroll down to and click Importing from Network Drives. (I think that's what you're after)

Some examples (the last 2 probably being the more "popular" use case(s)): "I want to see (filter) only games that are controlled with a [steering] wheel." "I want to (play) see only games that can use a VR headset." "I like visually seeing the controller 'badges' a game uses." "I want to create a playlist that shows only games using a VR headset." ("so I can just select the playlist rather than clicking through filters")
-
The game controller management system you're showing is informational only. It adds another layer of metadata for games (and platforms) that can be used to filter from and/or show badges for quick identification. Its intent is to show the supported controllers for games and allow full flexibility for customization. aka Customize it to have information that makes sense to you. LaunchBox does not (can not, and most likely will not ever) do any in-emulator controller configuring (outside of being able to access the LaunchBox Pause Menu and exiting the emulator).

As an experiment, can you extract goldrunner.st from the zip and point the games application path to the st file and then try launching? According to this, single file games should load straight to the game. But theirs weren't zipped.

I have one plugin that [still] uses that copy of VLC. Fortunately, it's only one and can easily be changed to use the assets under /FFMPEG/. Thanks for the reminder that this removal (could happen?) is imminent.

A fresh install of MAME doesn't come with mame.ini. Open MAME double-click General Settings double-click Save Settings Press Escape 2 times make your changes to [the now present] mame.ini
-
Though I'm not familiar with this, it looks like a handheld game. MAME carries many handheld games, but they don't fall under the Arcade platform. e.g. Tiger Electronics' "Tiger Game.com". At a quick glance, this should in the platform "VG Pocket". (or VG Pocket Mini? or VG Pocket Caplet? or VG Pocket Tablet?) Since that (or those?) platform(s) do not exist, you can put in a Feature Request to have it (them?) added.

roms Unable to add roms in Launchbox!
JoeViking245 replied to ServiceMode's topic in Troubleshooting
After doing the import from the updated ROM set, do you [now] have a game with the Title Geo Storm? After doing the import from the updated ROM set, did your look for Gun Force? or Gunforce? For the game Gun Force II (vs. Gunforce2), Is your ROM filename gunforc2.zip (vs. gunforce2.zip)? Are you importing the game into your "Arcade" platform? When you updated your ROM set, did you also update your MAME emulator (to 0.284)? When [attempting to] import the ROM, is the emulator you're selecting the updated MAME? -
Place the BIOS files in the same folder as the ROMs (vs. in a separate subfolder). e.g. D:\LaunchBox\Games\Arcade\rom1.zip D:\LaunchBox\Games\Arcade\rom2.zip D:\LaunchBox\Games\Arcade\rom3.zip D:\LaunchBox\Games\Arcade\bios1.zip D:\LaunchBox\Games\Arcade\vios2.zip

How to force Bigbox to open in a certain monitor
JoeViking245 replied to svlty's topic in Troubleshooting
System Menu < Options < General < Primary Screen: Screen 1 Change the 1 to whatever your monitor is on. Note that what Windows see as Monitor #1, may not be what Big Box sees as #1. So try the different available #'s to you find it. -
Bulk Add/Remove Additional Applications
JoeViking245 commented on JoeViking245's file in Third-party Apps and Plugins
You might try checking All, then just un-checking the ones you do want to keep. Another option would be to remove all those games, then re-install again. This way you're reinstalling without the 'forgetting to uninstall first'. Either of those might be faster than waiting for me to figure out how to add that in and updating this. But yes, something along the lines correlating the selected rows with the boxes that are (or get) checked would be good. In-line with the post(s) above yours. And like that previous post, I will add this to the someday-to-do-list. No promises on if/when that 'someday' will come. -
The import wizard is geared towards adding games to your LaunchBox collection. Not really for 'updating' it. Arcade is unique to other platforms in that its ROM set encompasses all things arcade, emulatable or otherwise. Including but not limited to Arcade machines, fruit machines ("slots"), pinball and handheld games. I won't even go into its soflists side of things in which the main ROM set includes all the devices and bios files for. Even more unique are the 3 types of ROM sets MAME has. Merged, non-merged and split. That alone can make updating your collection challenging. It's primarily because of these differing sets that Arcade is purposefully blacklisted from the AutoImport feature. With MAME being updated monthly, there's no real automagical way to have newly added ROMs classified into their respective 'genres'. e.g. poker/casino, fruit and handheld (which is a lot of what's being added these past months). This part of the MAME integration into LaunchBox is done [at least] semi-manually. And doesn't (can't?) happen as-soon-as a new update comes out. I have no idea how frequently LB developers update that aspect of it. I presume within a week-ish of the [MAME] new release. I suspect this is what/why you're seeing the post 13.21 issue. Thanks for the follow up on the bezel updating. That's good to know. RE: -listxml, when importing, LB will actually run that [in the background] to get a list of MAME ROMs your MAME emulator is aware of and use that to import from. When doing a fullset import, LB doesn't even look at all ROMs you have in your set. It just goes off "the list". e.g. if you have a 0.284 ROM set, but your mame.exe is 0.179, you'll have a lot fewer playable games imported than are in your set. (a farfetched example, just to show a point).
