    If you can do American Laser then Daphne is just exactly the same. You shouldn't have any problems (fingers firmly crossed!) 🙂

    Thanks for that but it's still not working for me? The top link in the page just gives a Launchbox "Oops something went wrong" message?

    Hi @Juketsu As others have said, this theme is absolutely beautiful. I think it's the only theme I will ever need on my cab as it really completes the look perfectly. There are just a few tiny tweaks that I'd love to do but can't find the source files for this one (you uploaded the source files for the version 1.x). Are the source files for this one uploaded? I've been playing around with the Theme Creator and watching a lot of the You Tube videos on it and, whilst I can't "build" a theme, I can certainly stand on the shoulders of giant (like yourself) and 'tweak' a theme... Many thanks for all your hard work and releasing this great theme into the community, you can tell by the outpouring of positive feedback just how great your work is 🙂

    These are amazing! Any chance of reuploading that mahoosive file... Google drive says the file has gone? Thanks for all your hard work and sharing all this (especially the blank template - give a man a fish and all that!!). Cheers 🙂

    Superb! Thanks for sharing! 🙂

    Did you have a look at the Daphne_log.txt to see what that says? It's probably just a path error somewhere... ? I've not messed with American Laser Games in years (whenever this thread was created) but I remember seeing quite a few of those error messages before I finally cracked it. *Edit* - the first trick is to get them working with their own launcher before you start trying to get Launchbox to run them.

    These are superb!! Really great looking. Not sure if you are planning on doing any others... if you do find yourself expanding the collection then a Lightgun Games / Quiz Machines / Hidden Object Games / Jukebox ones would go down a treat? Or maybe instructions on how they were made (give a man a fish and all that...) Thanks for sharing your hard work 🙂

    Brilliant RetroCove. Thanks for the idea. I think that's the way I'll go.... I really like your Favourites (All Systems) category as well. That's a great idea. Many thanks for the idea 🙂

    Thanks Retro. Appreciate you clarifying. I'ts not a problem but would just be a "nice to have". My son has started playing with my arcade and unless you're "in the know" you're not going to know search for "Future Pinball" etc... (obviously I've told him about it - but it would make my arcade more intuitive if there was a Pinball category in among the Platform list...). Thanks again for your help 🙂
  14. Johnny T
    Thanks for getting back to me RetroCove. I just wanted *that* category showing though. In other words, I want my Startup View to be a list of Platforms but with also the Pinball Category... so the wheel would be something like.... Arcade Atari 2600 etc Pinball --> -------------> Future Pinball -------------> Visual Pinball I know that you can set a Playlist to show in the wheel, I just wondered if you could do it with a Category? Thanks for your help 🙂
  15. Johnny T
    Hi all, I have got a few pinball platforms (FX3, Visual Pinball, Future Pinball) and (ideally) I would like one Category of "Pinball" and you can see on the main wheel and then you click into that and have the various platforms within there. The reason being, if people are playing on my cab, they may want to have a game of pinball but can't find the games (i.e. don't know to search for "Future Pinball"). Also, it would keep things neater. I've added a "Category" of Pinball. And I've edited the pinball Platforms to have the Category of "Pinball" as their parent. Not sure where to go from here though? Is it possible? What else do I need to do? Many thanks 🙂

    Thanks Retro. I'll drop them a line. I've just emailed my mate to get his home email addy off him so I'll send that along as well and see if they can generate him the license. Thanks again

    Hi there, I'm selling my old arcade cab (running Hyperspin) to a mate of mine. When the Black Friday sale was on I thought it would be nice to buy an annual license for LaunchBox and get that set up for him. I bought the license (I already own a lifetime license for LB on my main arcade) and reformatted my old arcade to Win 10, installed LB and I've just come to transfer the License.xml and it looks like it has my Name/Email encoded into it? Is there a way to transfer this license over to him? I've never installed the license (i.e. it's never "been online"). I've literally just downloaded it from my purchase email right now. Many thanks John

    Big Box just launches whatever 'exe' it points to. If I'm understanding you correctly, you could just point Big Box to some batch file that opens the manual? Not sure of the intricacies of this though... would need all your manuals naming the same as the game I think. Other than that, it sounds like Big Box might not be your best option for what you're trying to achieve? It could be a case of using BB to get all the media/manuals etc and then rolling your own front end to display them? Maybe via an offline website arrangement through the browser?

    Started watching a programme on Netflix called "High Score" last night. It charts the evolution of the gaming industry and the inspiration behind some of the (now) classic games - Pac Man, Space Invaders etc. Also some of the politics and shenanigans that went on behind the scenes. I've only watched the first episode but I really enjoyed it and thought it might appeal to others on here. 🙂

    No problem @Greedy Guido glad it worked for you and thanks for the thanks!! Your build looks awesome!!
  21. Johnny T
    Yep, that worked!! I changed screen 3 to be at the other side and it works now? Strangely, if Screen 3 is in the centre or at the left hand side then it doesn't work?? Many thanks for the great suggestion matey
  22. Johnny T
    Yep, good idea! I'll give that a go and report back
  23. Johnny T
    Hi Faeran, thanks for chipping in (great video's on YT by the way...). Good suggestion, I just tried it... Screen 1 goes to Screen 1, Screen 2 goes to Screen 2, Screen 3 goes back to Screen 1 again I wonder if it's a limitation because i've got three screens? Maybe I need to make my vertical monitor either Screen 1 or 2 ?
  24. Johnny T
    I've got three monitors. Two of them are just 1920x1080 but Monitor 3 is 1080x1920 (portrait). I've "identified" the 3 monitors and the vertical one is number 3. However, when I set Big Box to use Screen 3 as it's primary monitor (marquee monitor is set to 'none') then it just launches on Screen 2 instead? Anyone any ideas? I can probably buy a lead and mess around setting my vertical monitor to Screen 2 but thought I'd ask on here before I went to that trouble in case there was an easy fix?

    As I said, I'm not 100% sure. I'm just very new to the Theme Creator. Just watched a few videos on it and still trying to get my head around it. It *looked* like that to me but I might be wrong. I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will be along to give you a definite answer
