I'm trying to import a new Unaltered 0.261 full (Non-Merged rom set with all the Merged CHDs), but no matter what generas I include/exclude it wants to import exactly 3183 roms every time. I'm using a new official mame exe installed through LB. Any ideas? The set has 40,971 zip files total.
UPDADE: ok so it seems to be a bug. If you go through the mame importer then get to the end where it shows you how many games its going to import and click back to change something, after youve made your changes and click next again the full set importer will still tell you its going to import the same amount of games as before even though the list of games has changed. So basically the number on the bottom right isn't updating after making changes.

Is it possible to update the mame romset in launchbox and preserver the playlists and settings such as desired emulators for mame games that dont use mame? Just annoying having to go through and change model 2 and 3, gaelco, hikaru, naomi, atomiswave etc to use their correct emulators all over again each time, as well as having to set up certain playlists launchbox doesnt automatically create when importing mame games

Is there anyway to make the 3D boxes not lag when they bounce in? i switched launchbox to a m.2 nvme drive to try to fix the lag, but even that doesnt help and leads me to belive its just related to the theme. Do the boxes bouncing in lag/stutter for everyone else when doing there bounce effect? also using a 13900k CPU and 5600mhz ddr5 ram if it matters.

Is there a way to make the game discovery center selectable in the platforms list?

Can already be done via Pause menu
The pause menu looks nice, but it relies on M3U files and doesn't work with every emulator. Based on my experience with Big Box, it would be nice to have a simple popup with a list of disk numbers, bonus disks, and specials to appear before launching a multi-disk game. This could be enabled as an option, and would only appear when clicking play on a multi-disk game, not games with only multiple versions. I believe this would also be more user friendly and more immersive than having to go into the multiple apps section for people who are not familiar with the Big Box/LaunchBox interface.
Example: When clicking Play on Resident Evil 2 inside of Big Box you would see a semi transparent window pop up asking...
Which Disk Would You Like To Load?
- Disk 1 Leon
- Disk 2 Claire
- Special Bonus Audio Disk

Unless I'm misunderstanding you the thing you're requesting is already built into our additional app feature. You can set the disk number on the app. We can build a m3u file for you and pass it to the emulator if you have that option disabled. We also have the ability to change disc in the pause menu when doing so. The only thing NOT asked is what disc you want to load, you do have to pick the disc through the versions menu on either LaunchBox or Big Box
Thanks for trying to help C-Beats. Yeah, i guess additional apps just seems like they should be listed sepertaly from multiple disks, but seeing as how they're already programmed to be one in the same i guess the main thing would just be adding an option to have a popup when a game a launched with multiple disks so users not familiar with the launchbox frontend can have it be user friendly. Especially seeing as how someone already went to the trouble to program multiple disks into launchbox (mainly for m3u files im assuming) just kinda makes sense, and would just make it cleaner in my opinion.
-
Would it be hard to impliment Multi Disk Support into launch box in the form of something seperate but similar to additinal apps? and if launchbox knows you've listed more than 1 disk with the selected title then when clicking to play that game it will specifically ask which disk/version you wish to play (Including options for Special Disks, Bonus Disks etc.
Also, as you know m3u files dont work for every emulator, and they're also kinda not as attractive to use since only the main user of launchbox knows how to access them through retroarch. So far ive just been listing my games like Final Fantasy (Disk 1), Final Fantasy (Disk 2) etc. which isnt to pretty to scroll through. Anyway, be cool to see Multi-Disk get some love after all these years, and implemented as a main feature in some form or another.

This may simply be an issue with the mouse and it's driver. I have a Razer mouse and had to dump the poll rate because it'd cause most apps and games to stutter like you're describing.
thanks. i only brought it up because i hadnt noticed any problems in any games or apps outside of launchbox, but who knows you could be right since i dont have another logitech gaming mouse to experment with.
-
when using a higher report rate for the mouse such as 1000 times per second the 3d models will freeze/glitch every couple seconds when being rotated with the mouse, which im assuming shouldnt happen. When i lower the mouse report rate to 250 which is normal for non gaming mice the problem goes away.

Doesn't seem to be working for me again. Anyone using this with success as of now? I did update the file and was working about a month ago but tried today and didn't find any videos.
https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/download/2023.07.06/yt-dlp.exe
Try downloading the yt-dlp.exe from this link and replace the one in your plugin folder to see if that fixes the problem

I updated the Graphics Drivers but that didnt seem to fix anything. There isnt much in the way of settings for the 3D boxes so not much to tweak... Really strange, thanks though 🤔
-
Thanks for replying. I'm Running an Nvidia RTX2060 with drivers at 531.61. havent updated them in like 6 months but Ill update them when i get home and report back.
-
As the title suggests Launchbox will Freeze/Glitch every few seconds when rotating 3D boxes in full screen mode. It also stutters when the 3D boxes fall in using the unified redux theme. Does this happen to enyone else? My PC is decently fast and im running LB/BB from an SSD so it's not a loading speed issue. not sure how to track down the issue. Any ideas?
-
Is there any way to make the theme less jerky? the boxes dont really bounce in like the regular unified theme. They kinda "glitch" in really jerky like they're lagging. I'm running BB from an SSD and my computer is running a 13900k with an RTX graphics card with DDR5 Ram, so i wouldnt think my hardware should be to slow for the theme. Any ideas or is this happening to anyone else? Thanks

windows media player seems to work. Just didnt know if i was the outlier having problems with VLC or if others were experienceing it also. Thanks though i guess ill stick with windows media player

For the past few years, I have occasionally encountered a black screen with audio playing when clicking random games in Launchbox. If I pause the video and play it again, it works normally. It also works normally if I click out of the Launchbox window and back into it. This is essentially the same as pausing and unpausing the video by clicking out of the Launchbox window. I am using VLC. I am wondering if anyone else has this problem and has managed to fix it. Thank you.

I found a temporary work around for now by removing my game library location from Yuzu, because it loads in the background even if launchbox has launced directly into a game. just sucks because it makes installing DLCs and Updates more messy.
-
Does anyone know a way to stop Yuzu from loading the game library in the background? My library is over a 1000 games and even when launching games through launchbox Yuzu still loads the game library in the background which makes the emulator freeze up for like 5 min till its done. Be nice to just stop the library from loading since theres no need to load it once im already in a game which ive launched through launchbox.

The bottom bar which had play music as well as other options is gone now. is there an option to re-enable it? Otherwise, is the only way to play music by right clicking now? Also, when selecting to show Text for all games it shows the developer along with the name of the game. is there a way to hide the developer and only show the name of the game?
-
I would like to see it implemented also. Confused the crap out of me till I realized I couldn't use the same operator twice to create an AND/OR.

@phunky1 The updated Script works Great😁! thanks So Much! Great being able to have it decode somewhere other than on the NAS server lol😅, also seems to work a slightly faster but that could just be in my head lol, kuz even with a 12900k CPU i still think the CPU bottlenecks the Hard drives read/write speed lol, but without more testing i could be wrong. But thanks for spending so much time on the script it works great!

Nice, updated one more bug I found in script if you end up using. I think if you restart your powershell console it won't ask for the check after every run now that you set your execution policy. Or try PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File c:\script.ps1 but glad you have both working.
Nice work also @JoeViking245 for not having any PS3 ISO to test with!
Awesome!😁 yeah the new version worked perfectly too with no problems thanks!
Sorry one last thing lol...
For the code you posed Below for your RPCS3-Decrypt-ISO-LaunchBox script you made is there a way to have the decrypted file be decrypted anywhere other than where the Original Encrypted file is located? Here's your original script below for reference (However, If its to much work adding a custom location then no worries, just figured it might be slightly faster saving the decrypted file to my computer rather than back to the NAS Server where the Encrypted files are)
# Will get ISO param from Launchbox param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [string]$ISOpath ) # Put script in same folder as rpcs3.exe or change to direct path. $RPCS3path = "$PSScriptRoot\rpcs3.exe" #Path to PS3DEC.exe $PS3DEC = "$PSScriptRoot\ps3dec\PS3Dec.exe" #path to disc key files for decryptions $KeysPath = "C:\Roms\Sony Playstation 3\_PS3 Downloading\DKeys" $Keys = Get-ChildItem $KeysPath $ISOname = [System.IO.Path]::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($ISOpath) $Key = $Keys | Where-Object -Property name -Like "$ISOname*" $KeyValue = Get-Content $key.FullName $DecryptISO = (Split-Path $ISOpath -Parent) + "\$ISOname" + "_DEC.iso" & $PS3DEC d key $KeyValue $ISOpath $DecryptISO | Out-Null # Mounts the ISO to a drive letter $Vol = Mount-DiskImage -ImagePath $DecryptISO -PassThru # sleeps 2 seconds to wait for disk to mount. Can be changed as needed. Start-Sleep -Seconds 2 # Then gets the drive letter that the ISO was mounted to. $Voldisk = $vol | Get-Volume # Created the $path variable to the EBOOT.BIN file for lanching in rpcs3 $path = $Voldisk.DriveLetter + ':\PS3_GAME\USRDIR\EBOOT.BIN' # Lanches rpcs3 with EBOOT.BIN path, can add extra arguments for rpcs3.exe if needed. Not tested in this script. & $RPCS3path $path # sleeps 2 seconds until rpcs3 has a chance to start Start-Sleep -Seconds 2 # Waits for rpcs3 to be closed Wait-Process rpcs3 # Dismounts the ISO image drive Dismount-DiskImage -ImagePath $DecryptISO Remove-Item $DecryptISO -Force -

You downloaded the script from link right?
It maybe windowsPowershell issues, but open powershell and run script from the prompt like C:\path\myscript.ps1 or path into location of script and do .\script.ps1
Oh and maybe your execution policy. run this as well: Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -force
ok so I GOT IT WORKING! i tried this to see my execution policy and it was restricted so set it to Unrestricted using this command Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted according to online
Afterwards I was able to run the script but i have to tell it to allow it each time but it still worked!!!!!
Link to your script for anyone else looking to use it!
https://github.com/ptmorris1/RPCS3-ISOLauncher-Launchbox/blob/master/Bulk-Decrypt-ISOs.ps1
So now both scripts work beautifly as far as i can tell😁. So everyone now has 2 ways to batch convert their ISOs incase one doesnt work for anyone thanks to you both @phunky1 & @JoeViking245. Thanks so much for the help!

🥳🥳@JoeViking245 Got his code working for bulk Decrypting!
This is the code he made below which worked😁
As he was saying just replace your paths in the first 3 rows Listed below....
1: ps3dec.exe decoder program (.exe) location
2: Folder Location for your new decrypted games
3: path to location of your Batch file & Encrypted roms which will be decrypted
@echo off set path2ps3dec=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\PS3DEC\ps3dec.exe set decryptedISOFolder=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\DECRYPTED_GAMES\ set path=C:\Users\darre\Desktop\TEMPPS3\PS3DEC\ setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion Set key= for %%f in (*.iso) do ( set keyFile=%%~dpnf.dkey set /p key=< "!keyFile!" echo key file: !keyFile! echo key=: !key! start "" /w /d "%path%" "%path2ps3dec%" d key !key! "%%~dpnxf" "%decryptedISOFolder%%%f" ) pause🥳

LaunchBox 13.11 - Beta Thread
in Beta Testing
Posted · Edited by darreldearth
lol actually just updated my post, and found it was a bug, But Yeah wasnt trying to install all 40k roms lol. was just thinking the importer wasn't letting me alter the ones i wanted, because i found that the number in the full set importer is bugged, and if you make changes by clicking the back button then clicking next again (After making changes) the number in the bottom right where it says how many games are being imported wont change, but the list of games will 😣.
