was trying to run the cleanup media tool but cant find a way to run it on a single platform and was wondering if this is possible without dragging all the media in launchbox out of their media folders temporary (Minus the system i want to cleanup media for) in order to just have it cleanup a single system.

In order for consolidation to shrink the games down to the lowest possible amount i have to run the consolidation tool 3-6 times for each system, and each time it sais the number dropped a little lower until eventually the number wont drop anymore. my question is... is there a reason i need to run the tool that many times instead of it just fully consolidating the first time? PS. on a side note, once in a while when running the consolidation tool some games will will consolidate themselves, as in a game will add itself to the additional apps list within itself. not sure if anyone else came across this or not.

Be cool to have separate settings for each theme so it saves all the selected views (platform, category, genre) for each theme separately.

ok thanks ill post this in bitbucket.

isn't this only if i have created the code already? i don't know how to add these features into LB/BB so its more of a request if the creators/programmers wanted to add in the features themselves.

Been using Launchbox/Bigbox for a while and didn't really know where to post this, but here's a list of a few things off the top of my head that would be nice to see in future updates if possible. 1. Multi Disc Support (selectable option) where imported games with (Disc 1), (Disc 2) etc. in the name will be labeled as such in the Edit Menu (A new description box would need to be added to the edit menu called Disc Number to keep multi disc games separate). these games would all be kept separate from one another so when consolidating all the games it won't mix multi disc games together as a single game. 2. from what I've seen if the system which is selected in launchbox in the left hand menu isn't visible because the list is to long the games will not update when making changes until I scroll down on the left hand menu to where the selected system is visible on the scroll bar. (hope that makes sense) 3. Add something into launchbox so when importing games the scraper will ignore certain words and not add them to the title, because right now it ignores things which are in parentheses but it would be nice to be able to just type in keywords for the importer to ignore when scraping games. some games also are numbered when downloaded so it would also be nice if you could just say to ignore characters between certain areas. such as ignore first 5 characters or last 5 characters. otherwise we have to rename every game to remove the numbers and words which could just be ignored by the scraper. 4. allow user to set which box art, cart art, etc. should be used in edit menu when there are multiple versions found in the folder. right now the only way is to move the alternate arts out of the main folder because launchbox will pick one to use at random when more than one of a certain type is found. 5. in bixbox would be nice if you could optionally set a default video/image to be displayed when no video or image is available so that at least its not just blank for games with no video or art. 6. when i upload games to be updated in the database there's no option in launchbox for "game type" which is a selectable option in the database. not sure if its supposed to be that way or not but I'm on the most current version of launchbox. 7. would be nice if settings could be remembered for different themes in bigbox so the views don't get messed up every time the theme is changed. would also be nice if you could set which folders certain themes use for the main menu videos, genre videos etc. because certain themes look better with different types of videos. 8. being able to change Which type of art is being displayed such as having bigbox show 3D box art for themes which by default use 2d box art. this would be a bigbox option which would be separate for each theme, because certain themes (Unified) use 2D box art by default and you have to change it to use 3d box art within launchbox but then that messes it up for all the other themes. just would be nice to have the settings tied to specific themes. 9. Native support for xpadder so certain games/systems will automatically launch xpadder and load a profile attached to that game/system so the process can be done without additional apps.

This worked a few updates ago but now clicking escape won't skip the videos regardless of how long I wait. Maybe is just me if its still working for you guys.

is there a key on the keyboard we can press to not have to watch the entire video? been looking for it kuz some of my startup videos are 2+ min long which takes time everytime i open and close bigbox...

I was trying to use RLauncher to launch the games while using the new loading screens from launchbox, because i personally like them more especially with the themes capabilities. There were just a few emulators which i had trouble using with launchbox which is why i was using RLauncher in the first place, as well as things like mapping my controllers using xpadder for certain emulators/pc games. anyway, It would be nice if in launchbox which you select RocketLauncher as an emulator you could just tell launchbox which emulator EXE rocketlauncher would be lunching, this way launchbox would ignore rocketlauncher and just look for the emulator its launching instead for use with the new loading screens. If its to hard or not worth investing the time for the small group of people that use rocketlauncher then that's fine, because i know there's a ton of other features which need to be pumped out. Just would be cool to use the new loading screens with the few systems i need Rocketlauncher for until launchbox makes rocketlauncher obsolete.

Yeah so far this hasn't been compatible with rocketlauncher for me either since it sees rocketlauncher as the emulator, thus making whatever emulator that rocketlauncher launches loses focus and needs to be clicked with mouse to regain focus, and the "game over" screen always launches right after the "loading game" screen if I get to see it at all. Hopefully rocketlauncher get support until it's no longer needed.

Is "Platform Categories View" in Bigbox the only way to view playlists which are nested under a specific system aside from just using the playlist hotkey which jumbles all the playlists for all systems/categories into one gigantic list? I was trying to just use the normal platform view then select a system, and then view its playlist without having to use the platform categories view.

When using big box whenever i click to view the playlists while in a system it just shows me every playlist for all systems combined. is there a way to have it filtered for only the specific system i'm looking at like i can in launchbox? I can only find a way to make it be filtered by system if i start from platform categories view

Its annoying but i'm just having to rename the videos one at a time to match launchbox's naming conventions

Nintendo Wii U 2D Boxes Complete (For Current Hyperlist 2.0 08/22/2017) View File Here is a complete 2D Box set for Nintendo Wii U. Most were downloaded and i made the rest to match the existing Hyperlist 2.0 08/22/2017 which is posted on the Hyperspin website. I left them in High Quality and didn't shrink them so you could adjust the size to your liking. Submitter darreldearth Submitted 09/06/2018 Category Game Box Art
