  1. Glad this topic is being talked about. Mame is the main reason most people got into emulation. Each release either has new games added or fixed games that were marked not working. Would be great to see what database is being used on LB. Or better yet a tool for us to create it ourselves that works on LB.
  2. Is there a way to see which database version is being used on launchbox? Also how often are MAME databases updated here? Thanks
  3. So LB is like HS and we have to wait for a new database to be created on every new MAME release? Why can't LB create its own using the xml like MALA? Thanks
  4. Well it finally worked. Been doing what you mentioned before but wasn't working. Now I have my MAME video snaps and MAME video themes working named after the rom. Thanks
  5. Thanks for the reply everyone. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong but when I try and just add my video snapshots for MAME from HS which the videos are named after the rom LB doesn't recognize them. When I try and download media from LB and use only from Emumovies DB only it still downloads the videos with the name of the game and not the rom. I want LB to only use MAME roms names not the game title. Thanks
  6. How do I do this? Thanks
  7. I'm very new to LB. Been using Hyperspin forever and this MAME High Score feature made me dust off the cobwebs and play some classic games. Thanks for this feature.
  8. Every time I try LB downloads the video themes and artwork using the full name. How do I make it using the MAME rom names? I just want to transfer my media from HS to here without having to d/l everything again. When I try placing my existing media in LB it does not recognize the rom name.
  9. Thanks. Grabbed it from the FTP. Had to change the name but all good. Actually I have a question about how LB uses names. HS would use the rom name for videos and themes but here it uses the full name. Is there s way to have LB use the rom names for videos and themes. Sorry little off topic. Thanks
  10. Does this clone have its own theme? I know there is one from HS but can't locate it here. Thanks
  11. Oh yes I lost many due form failed HD. That's why I have so many drives backing stuff up. After looking looks like its been around 15+ years doing this on and off.
  12. Thanks. That's what I meant. On the other hand lots of these games from Japan like Famicom that also has USA games might have different sounds or graphics and harder game play. I was just curious. Just trying to wrap my head around this from coming from HS. Seems like HS is dead in the water and has not been worked on for a while. I will keep my setup just planning for the future.
  13. Been collecting for over 10 years form rom sites that are no longer with us. A moment of silence......................But a few have popped up that are hidden.
  14. One more thing. I have a complete set of Nintendo NES. When I mean a complete set I am using the DB from HS. It has 886 different games. USA games first then other region games that were not released in USA. Why don't all my games show up when I add them to Launchbox?
  15. Never mind I think I figured it out. Thans
  16. OK is there a thread to show me how to do this. Now I have my NES and Famicom roms all in the Nintendo set. M NES set was 833 now it's 1107. Thanks
  17. Just curious why it's done this way and that they don't have their own platform?
  18. OK what's scrapping lol. I seen it but have know idea how it works.
  19. Been slowly moving from Hyperspin and importing my roms to Launchbox but noticed some systems are not in LB. Examples are NEC PCEngine, PC Engine CD, Nintendo Super Famicom Platforms.
  20. OK I'm sorry for the noob question. I'm really having a hard time figuring this system out coming from Hyperspin. I have a merged rom set for MAME .220. I would like to import my clones so they show up in LB and BB. When I scroll to games the Donkey Kong the clone Pauline edition doesn't appear. I would like certain clones to have their own wheel, videos, artwork etc. How to I go about adding certain clone game? Thanks
  21. Sure I was just practicing anyway. Only played maybe 2 games each of the scores I achieved High Scores.
  22. Can I install launchbox outside of my C drive? I like to use my 3 8TB HDD for my roms, artwork, videos etc. Thanks
  23. Ok noob question. I have all the artwork, videos etc. I'm a member of emumovies and have everything for my HyperSpin setup. I just purchased the license for Bigbox and I don't want to download everything again during setup. Can I point this to my current directory where I have all my files like game videos. Artwork etc? Thanks

    Adding CHD's

    OK I think I found out why some clone roms were missing. I had to uncheck bootleg hacks etc for them to show. Thanks
