Meh, didn't want to answer the follow up questions about how to do it as answering would take more time than it did for me to make the plugin outright. Attached is a plugin with the logic mentioned. It'll set the sort title of any game that doesn't have a sort title set already to be the exact same as the title of the game which will make the games sort the way you want. Just extract the dll file into the \\LaunchBox\Plugins folder (NOT in any subfolder) with LB closed. When you open it again you'll have a new option at the bottom of the Tools menu that says "Set Sort Title Equal To Title". Press that and you're done. I'd recommend creating a backup before you do it incase you change your mind though. LB_SortTitleInject.zip

Alternatively could ask around and see if some one could write a plugin that just sets the sort title equal to the game title. Whole plugin would take 5m to write and is only like 10 lines of actual code (if that) to do really well. Then just push a button and all games that don't have a sort title already set it could just set it to the actual title and then solve your problem. I've seen the community tackle far more complex tasks for odder requests.

We grab RetroArch FROM the RetroArch download site so we grab official versions of the emulator. I can't speak to the online update bit but make sure you don't have the newest feature of inject RetroAchievements into your RetroArch, or at the very least make sure hardcore mode is shut off. Hardcore mode disables and removes a lot of options from the UI like FF/Slow Down, Save/Load States, Cheats, etc.

Because sorting with THE (or any other article) being left in the start of the word and actually used in the sort logic isn't the standard way of sorting anywhere that I'm aware of so we built the program to follow common accepted sort logic, and gave the option to other uses that they can do their own thing with it if they wanted.

Just tried and seems to be working for me (that being said it was down for a while yesterday)

EmuMovies API does seem to be done again @circo. Thanks to all those reporting it.

Thanks again @JamesAndersonJr both corrections made. Won't show up in app until tomorrow though since the DB build process has already happened for today.

WHOA WHOA WHOA! Why is my name listed SECOND!? C-Beats and LaunchRetroGirl just rolls off the tongue SO much better! ;D

When importing make sure the "Combine similar ROMs" (or something similar, the only one that says combine lol) is checked and this will be done automatically. If you don't have this and later want to combine games just select each game you want to stack together, then right click and select "Combine Games". It'll ask you in a pop up which should be the primary, just pick the one you want then press ok.

What the heck am I!? Chopped liver!?

Turn off the automatic imports (Tools > Manage > Storefronts) and then save and close LaunchBox. Delete the \\LaunchBox\Images folder and then go into \\LaunchBox\Data\ and delete everything EXCEPT Settings.xml. Should give ya what you're wanting.

I'm not involved in Android development at all, if I remember right though yes they were able to replicate it hence the code change.

Add x:Name="ReleaseYear" onto the border at line 2107 Then add the following after the closing TextBlock tag (</TextBlock>) on line 2169 (put your cursor after the '>' sign press enter and put the following code on a new line) <flow:FlowBadge Margin="{Binding Converter={StaticResource ScaleConverter}, ConverterParameter='30,0,0,0'}" BadgeName="Achievements" DataContext="{Binding ActiveItem}" Height="{Binding ElementName=ReleaseYear, Path=ActualHeight}" /> Can adjust the margin how you see fit. Just remember you can't actually change default theme since we overwrite it on startup. Have to copy default to a new folder, name the copy folder, then make the change to the files in that folder. Then in BB change to THAT theme.

No need. If you stick you cursor just under where the play button is and before the grid images start to appear there is an invisible slider there. You'll know you hit it when the cursor changes look. When it changes hold down the left mouse button and drag up or down to resize.

Code change in the works for the first beta release by looks of things on my end. I don't work that side at all to really have any better timeline for ya, but yes it's been looked into and code will be changing in an effort to correct the issue.

NOPE! I mean the build process I do uploads it, but I don't put the values in the log. Not giving up anymore information though. Might get labeled a snitch around here and we can't have that...

Where the fun in it if we can't throw in a few surprises here and there! ;D

I'll have to test and see what's going on there. Thanks for bringing it up!

First check your \\LaunchBox\Updates folder for older installers. If that doesn't work contact support and they can get ya a link to whatever version you want.

We always use relative pathing when possible so not entirely sure what you're referring to

Don't I wish... lol Good news! You now have what I like to call "Quality Control Experience!" Use it to net ya that dream job! ;)

Been that way for as long as I've been on the team at least (least the intent).

If you have premium and aren't seeing them in LB check the video playback engine, and if you didn't allow Klite to install. If you're using WMP for playback the codecs to play Steam videos for example aren't on your computer by default and that pack puts them there for you so video works. We're hoping to get another video playback choice in the next cycle to kinda smooth out these edges with WMP/VLC since migrating to .NET 9

Has always been this way (or was intended to). We found a bug last release cycle that made them work when they weren't supposed to and squashed it. I'm just the messenger, be gentle! lol
