  1. Recently my Big Box starts and then freezes until I ALT+TAB back to it. There are no other applications open, just Big Box when I ALT+TAB. Started happening recently. Any ideas?
  2. Sorry for the quality, just took a snapshot. File structure is: Launchbox>Images>Playlists>Rotary Joystick>Clear Logos I use the CriticalZone Blue Box theme.
  3. I did refresh the image cache in BigBox. I add the clear logo from LB edit playlist UI. Maybe the issue is that I am moving it to the clear logo file into the folder myself?
  4. I have a few different control types on my cabinet, rotari joystick, trackball and spinner. I created individual playlists for each control type, I also made clear logos for each playlist. However, when I try to add the clear logo Big Box doesn't recognize it and seems to delete it from the clear logo file for the playlist. I've attached one of the .png that I made to this post The process seems pretty straight forward, what am I doing wrong here? I'm sure this is something simple that I am missing....
  5. Oh that makes sense, thank you. Then I will just disable use all controllers, the issue is that my gas pedal is from an old arcade cab and the pots drift sometimes causing the Big Box menu to just cycle.
  6. I'm using a APac and Big Box thinks that both analog inputs are left sticks. Is Big Box capable of distinguishing between left and right inputs?
  7. I've modded a Arcade 1up Star Wars Cab to have a gas/brake pedal as well as the yoke. I use an Apac to encode these 2 separate x/y analog controls. When I try to map them in Big Box for navigation, they both come up as "left side control" when in actuality they are separate inputs on the Apac. Mame recognizes them as separate as does windows, but for some reason, Big Box will not. I have altered the config file for controller bindings to specify right side control but that does not have any effect. Any ideas?
  8. Heya! When is that next poll going to happen? I've just modded a Starwars arcade 1 up cabinet and would love to have big box open only to games compatible with that control set up.
  9. They other day Big Box stopped recognizing my button 1 in controller mapping for selecting. I erased that binding and tried to input it back into Big Box but it will not acknowledge the key stroke. I erased one other binding and the same thing is happening. MAME recognizes my buttons just fine so I know they are being read by the computer. It's weird because I haven't updated or messed with my set up at all recently. I've already tried to restore my BigBox settings but that did not effect the controller mapping. My Joystick and buttons still function in Big Box just fine for navigating. It just does not recognize my buttons when I am using the "control mapping" menu. I use zero delay usb encoders. I also noticed that control mapping is not mapping for my keyboard either. Any suggestions/solutions are very appreciated! Thank you.
  10. I have the same issue. I posted about it a week ago so I'm sure someone is aware of it. Happened with the newest update.
  11. The attached video shows what I'm talking about
  12. It seems that certain games have an image attached to them. This image appears on the game wheel but unless the next game has the same kind of asset attached the previous image sticks...hard to explain. It is a new issue that I have only had since updating to 10.9, I can't figure out what the asset is called to disable it. IMG_9230.MOV
  13. Cool, I guess I have never noticed. I was just excited to get Star Wars Arcade running. They just fixed the ROM in the Mame .217.
  14. Heya all- For some reason Big Box is not importing Wing Wars or Star Wars Arcade games that were just promoted to working in Mame .217. I can find them in my roms and launch them via Mame but they are not coming up in Big Box. Imported a full Mame set twice now with no luck.
  15. Ended up just reverting back to one of my arcade backups and reimporting mame. Its awesome the way you guys built the automatic backups into launchbox it has saved me countless times!
  16. Everything is checked. I'll check out the back up file tonight. Thank you!
  17. Heya All- I just did my monthly update in MAME as well as updated to Launchbox 10.7 and am noticing that Big Box is listing every MAME rom and software/system. I reimported the set and made sure to have the do not import nonplayable games box checked. When I rebooted Big Box it still has all roms and systems coming up on my games list. Doesn't mess up the gameplay, everything is still there, but there is also a ton of things in my game menu that should not be there.
  18. Works well for all my other games but for some reason any old vector based games like Star Wars or Tempest don't translate. Any one have a similar experience? maybe a solution? I think it would be kind of awesome to play something like Tempest with synced external lights.
  19. What happened is that my video collection is a World region, last night when I imported my mame set I left the preferred region on North America. reimported with the proper settings and everything is good.
  20. Thats what I did wrong. I didn't uncheck that media downloads box....thanks!
  21. I use CLRMamepro to update my mame set my question was more to Launchbox importing that updated set. The proper method in Launchbox is to use the import mame full set option, correct? I am hoping there is a way to get a quicker way for launchbox to scan my roms when I update my mame from say .210 to .211 instead of importing the entire set again.
  22. I did not rename anything and most of my videos still work. Maybe you're right the new version of Mame has different shortnames for the roms, I can check that when I get home. It is just weird because it is games like Black Tiger and Cabal, games that I don't think have been updated. But maybe, because it is from a Multimedia set I downloaded from PD for .209. I have not seen an updated multimedia set as of yet. But I did do the import correctly right? for updating Mame you need to update the whole set. Also what is the proper way to make Big Box scan for new videos? Thank you
  23. I think this is an easy one, I just don't know what to do. Last night I updated my Mame to .211 and used the full arcade set importer to update Big Box. Big Box imported it all just fine but a lot of my video snaps have now been disconnected from the menu. I know I still have the videos in the same place in the Launchbox file system, I have not moved anything. What should I do to reconnect everything?
  24. I'm using GroovyMame. I didn't change anything but tonight when I tried the pause feature the screen was not black but MAME came back windowed.
