I have my games sorted into region folders, and I'm trying to create a playlist to only show games which are listed within in a single region only (ex. Exclusive Or "XOR" US, JP or EU). that way i can view only the region specific games. However within the Auto Populate feature within the create playlist I cant figure out which combination to use to achieve this, because under Region there's no XOR option for "Only contains 1 of these values" or something similar. Any ideas how to achieve this?

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 14900k CPU and 5600mhz ddr5 ram if it matters.
Anyone using this theme have issues with the 3d "rotateable" boxes stuttering when they bounce in? Still looking for a solution if anyone knows. Thanks

Any chance someone is still checking this thread out? I am trying to use this with Attract Mode. When I select a game, it will launch Phoenix, go into fullscreen, but it does not load the selected ROM - it just gives me the "insert disc" picture on the screen. I have tried most every configuration of command arguments using "[romfilename]" and -filename I can think of, but nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any experience with setting this up? Thanks.
I switched to the newer BIGPEmu emulator because it plays the entire jaguar library with 100% compatibility. If you haven't tried it you may wanna give it a try. I pasted the link to their site below

I remember seeing these over the years. Are you making these available for download or just showcasing what you've made thus far?

I have my ps3 games in iso format and then they're mounted automatically and unmounted when I quit the game. I have my updates and DLCs in a separate folder that launchbox can't scan. If they're all in the same folder it will probably confuse LB

You can get more if you just manually install it (Don't go though the MAME function)
I just installed it manually using working only (no clones) dummy zip files (approx 4,600) and it works fine.
Trust me, you do not want to install all 40,971 as 85/90% are clones.
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 😣.

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 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.
Playlist Auto-Populate 'And' 'Or' Support?

I'm trying to create Exclusive Or Logic to only display games that exist within a single region. Such as creating a playlist within PS2 that pulls all games from EU, JP and US and only shows the games which exist only within a single region, and excluding them if they exist in multiple regions, so i can see region exclusive games. any idea how to create the XOR logic?
