I don't have the other two. I will have to make something or you can request one in the clear logo request forum

U can register an account there and change them yourself. If your changes get approved then your change will be reflected in the gamesDB

They are not banners. They are clear logos. u put them in their respective [platform name] folder [YOURDRIVE]:\Launchbox\Images\Media Packs\Platform Clear Logos So either in [YOURDRIVE]:\Launchbox\Images\Media Packs\Platform Clear Logos\Nostalgic Platform Clear Logos\Platforms or [YOURDRIVE]:\Launchbox\Images\Media Packs\Platform Clear Logos\Legacy Conversion Logo Pack\Platforms The name of the clear logo has to be the same as the platform name. U can check which mediapack one you are using in the theme manager

nah. That isn't necessary. Just help others as I helped u, thats more than enough reward for me.

didn't use google. The WII lightguns I made with some help from AI and finetuned them in photoshop, and the e-shop one I put together using photoshop. But thanks anyway, i'll glady accept the appreciation. I'll notch up those free pints😉

@d8thstar : There ya go. Thats all I got.

still looking for the others. Coming up

good to hear. Hope it keeps working. Else might be time for a beefier pc 😉

I also made some default artwork for the Acorn Electron Couple 3D box, and one Box

@AlexDC22 : I have also uploaded all of these to the gamesDB. That way they won't get lost and for the benefit of everyone. But great work. They look absolutely fantastic.

I could only find two from the cgenie_cass that were not added. From the 330 games about 257 need the boot_type sequences,...the rest use the fall back (boot_default) in the lua to load the games. charedit = create_boot_type_2_sequence, charset = create_boot_type_2_sequence but these are probably negligible cause they aren't games. (Character Generator/Editor) Then one error I think I found in the lua. It references on line 167 geniepede = create_boot_type_1_sequence("G"), In the MAME SL cgenie_cass this game is called 'genieped', so the line should be genieped = create_boot_type_1_sequence("G"), <software name="genieped"> <description>Geniepede</description> <year>1983</year> <publisher>Ipswich Software Factory</publisher> <info name="author" value="R. Hamilton" /> <info name="usage" value="Type SYSTEM and load with G" /> <part name="cass1" interface="cgenie_cass"> <dataarea name="cass" size="3468"> <rom name="geniepede_part1.cas" size="3468" crc="6a0014d8" sha1="9f6c649b824e303d17cf26ed62310a8fcc9762c1" /> </dataarea> </part> <part name="cass2" interface="cgenie_cass"> <dataarea name="cass" size="5963"> <rom name="geniepede_part2.cas" size="5963" crc="22634e4f" sha1="e283b8ab4918f0bb6b929f32f42194704bf8fd1f" /> </dataarea> </part> </software> I've added the cgenie_cass.lua here @dsync89 : can u comment on my observations? cgenie_cass.lua

Oh, I will complete the existing lua dsync did. Will sent it to you when I finish it and will send it to dsync so he can add it to his github Cause I already have a xml parser that gets all the values, so not too difficult to complete the whole lua with everything in the cgenie_cass.xml

@spycat : I have a fully working electron script already. I wanted to make a dedicated post for that one. But I will send it to you through message. That way u can be my first testcase before I dedicate a new thread to it 😁

Never mind my earlier post. I investigated dsync's script. And I see that in his lua he has configurations for all the games. my bat script just read them from the cgenie_cass.xml So different approach with same result😁

Thanks for your response! 😊 YES. I discovered that too (after a but of trial and error) that the ram parameter was causing this. I already built a bat file that launches everything and sends the correct boot commands. Including the correct settings for every game. That way I never have to type anything. Not system, not cload, not ASTRO (to launch astronaut), no BBBBBB, nothing. Only going to mame UI to press play. The BAT file can prefer MAME, or it can prefer Retroarch. U can set them in the bat file with a trigger. Or u can adjust it from within launchbox The lua helped at first but then u still have to enter the correct commands to be able to launch the game. So i decided to make a bat file which handles all of that for every game in the cgenie xml. When I finish fine-tuning it I will make a thread for it so it won't get lost in separate forum responses. I'm trying to make several bat files for several systems. They only need minimal adjustmens and are easy for someone else to use. Basically just change the paths to your mame and retroarch.

@spycat:when I enter this mame.exe cgenie -ram 32k -autoboot_command \n\nCLOAD\n -autoboot_delay 1 -cass backgamm I get the first ENTER when the question for MEMORY comes. However, it never gives the CLOAD command. Do you know what could be wrong here?

I was making some logo's for the Acorn Electron (electro_flop and electro_cass software lists) I've recently made a simple launcher which runs all these games without fail. Was one of the -platforms to fix- on my todo list.

I need to go back to the drawing table. Turns out, my config in electron.ini was too wide (top level directory to the software lists) and it was launching the dkong.zip from arcade. So not the electron. That does not mean the settings I shared with you are all wrong. Just that it needs some more tweaking. When I fix this I will post here again.

I've made an electron_launcher.bat which runs all flop and cass games. Only a very few of the games I cannot get to run. (bad program error) But probably they are broken. I just fixed all of them so also the ones which gave 'bad program' run now. So overall I think my launcher runs all of the flop and cass games. My bat file detects all types of media (SSD, ADF, UEF) and gives the correct commands to autoboot the games. Either through lua scripts, or through regular commands. So whether you have electron_flop and electron_cass in the same ACORN Electron games directory. That does not matter. My launcher will recognize all games and boot them. My bat file has the option to mix and match the emulator. Either with Retroarch and with MAME. OR just MAME, or just Retroarch. Some games however I cannot get to launch in Retroarch cause the mame libreto core is not as advanced as regular mame. So in those cases, even with prefer retroarch is selected...it will launch those games in MAME. Is there still a need for my launcher? Else I will make a dedicated new thread for it with all required files in it.
