Hello World
So I couldn't find an answer in the forums on this so creating the topic now. What is the process to add your hacked games and scrape any media for them? For example I have my NES games and then I have another folder with all the NES Hack games. Am I just creating a separate platform and scraping them as the NES platform?
-
Was going to set this up into LB/BB and put it into steam then run steamlink. Will test it this weekend and see. At least for games like Destiny 2 anyway.
-
It certainly does make sense and I have played retro gaming on my 65 tv as well so I know the feeling of playing turtles arcade on it. Probably will certainly consider scoping a build like this out. Did you reference any previous design plans for this or you just kinda went with your own take on it?
-
ok I gotcha yeah I am just wanting to ensure the core config info and its media are in tack. Thanks for the input.
-
I will give that a go and see.
-
Oh ok gotcha good point. Yeah I have a Parent Rom directory and then folders for each system under that. Will check that out and see.
-
So i played with the audit tool and it certainly provides a wealth of helpful information. However if I have a game that i missing a BoxArt image can I run a force check on that specific game to see if there is something out there? Aside from connecting to the LB GamesDB I am also connected to the EMUMovies and I just want to make sue there weren't connection issues when obtaining that media before I start to look for it elsewhere.

I added new Roms that I was missing in my Sega Model 2 and tried the rescan for newly Added Roms. It didn't work. Is there something I am not doing correctly?

I did work on this yesterday and Got my Nintendo Famicom, Super Famicom, and Sega Mega-Drive setup. Worked as described. Thanks.

Question I am considering adding a 2nd drive to have a mirror copy of my LB/BB setup so I can run the beta code on it for testing so I don't risk breaking things on my primary production copy. Anyone have success in doing that or do you just backup your data up and then proceed with the update?

Been debating on doing a 4 player cab over a 2 player. Your work so far is inspiring for a first time cabinet builder. Messed with HyperSpin so long and when I finally went to LB 9.0 that MAME importer makes it very easy.
Question for your four player setup. What is your width of control panel and cabinet itself? Also how did you make it modular so you can move it in different areas? That is what I am currently reviewing so I can be flexible with space.

Nice finally a bartop that has room for your wrists and some width. Nice job.
-
So I am curious why you decided to make this instead of a full arcade cabinet? While I am planning on making a full size cabinet I was also considering doing something like this to roll right up in from of my 65 TV and connect via HDMI. Thoughts?
-
Cool deal will give it a go this weekend.

Question I want to import and scrape two systems into my LB/BB 9.0 environment. Super Fam, and Sega Megadrive. Those platforms aren't present in the list. Do I create a manual list and scrape them as their America platform counterparts? Didn't want to miss up my current systems metadata and media.
-
However it looks like its been in beta for awhile and it seems to crash when trying to go to the back menu. More to follow.
-
Heard this was a useful app. Going to give it ago to help cleanup my LB/BB 9.0 media
-
Well maybe I have overlooked something so I will go back and see. Basically I want to pull up what games have missing media/artwork and if I can run another auto check against sources like emu movies and/or LB gamesDB before I have to go out and find or create some media manually.
-
Checked and grabbed all the older ones for my own local repo. I will test it and let you know. Thanks for your help.
-
So I have gone through and scraped all my media for my games (that are in a HyperSpin format) on the LB/BB 9.0 platform with my emu movies sub. However I still see a fair amount of games that don't have any media associated with them. I thought the audit tool helps me review what is missing so I can start to search for that media but doesn't look like it. Is there any other methods or tools to use to get media on my games that have media missing?
-
I don't see older builds on there just the 2.0.4. Didn't know if there was a repo for the older ones or not.
-
Apparently the file isn't there. Is there one for 0.192 and 0.193 or will 0.197 work with older Roms?
-
Yeah I have noticed that on some of mine and of course it will stop when I click on something else. It is annoying when you launch a game and its still playing. It doesn't happen every time.
-
So question does LB/BB have a different naming scheme then naming schemes based on other frontends like HyperSpin? Reason I ask I have all my games in a HyperSpin format and have recently gotten my media setup with LB/BB 9.0. I have lifetime subs to emu movies as well but have noticed some games didn't obtain the media unlike others.

Side question. Do you have to maintain the same Drive letter pathing ? Been configuring my setup on one of my machines for my arcade build and once finished, will be porting it to another win10 machine.
I currently run a SSD for the OS, an SSD of 500GB or less for LB/BB itself, and a big drive with all the roms. I haven't verified what I want to do with certain windows PC fighting games yet but might do another SSD drive for it. games like SF4/5 cane be 60GB or less.
