    I'll have to take a look at the code and see if we can tighten the gap. Essentially why this happens is that each item is actually a 3D object in a scene. What is happening is the item is just a tad bigger than the image, and even though the image is transparent the video card recognizes SOMETHING was there so it draws to something called the "depth buffer". This essentially just tells you video card how close something being drawn is to the camera. Because something has already been drawn that is closer (even though it was transparent) it doesn't try to render the thing under it. I'll have to see is there a way we can tell DirectX NOT to draw to the depth buffer if the color being drawn is transparent.

    Not sure it will help but can you run Command Prompt as administrator and then type "sfc /scannow" (without the quotes) and press enter and let that process run. Once it's done restart your computer and then see if you still have the issue.

    Would depend on how you are rendering the wheel images. Are you making your own theme or trying to modify an existing one?

    May be easier to join their discord (https://discord.com/invite/D6KbKZr) and ask directly. If you can't even access the website via your web browser you could be having firewall issues though.

    Microsoft changed the cookie domain they were using apparently. I have code change in place that should make that "Force New Login" check box to work properly. Will let you know when the code is in a beta so you can confirm it's working for you.

    For sure. Will probably use your theme for my arcade platform for a little while anyway. Still need to make the artwork/vids for the arcade platform to play nice with my theme so this'll be a nice stand in to give me time to do it.

    Are you running any plugins? Also could you show us what your AHK scripts are for the emulator?

    Can you go to the options menu inside of LaunchBox and tell me what your options are set to? Curious if the last check box is checked or not.

    Just want to make sure I understand this situation. Are you intentionally launching the Pause Screen while within Big Box or is it something that is happening accidentally as you navigate and is causing the issue?

    Let me know if you have any issues with it, help where I can.

    Would it be possible for you to zip up your data folder and PM it to me? I'd be interesting in seeing if I can use it to replicate what you are seeing so we can work at correcting it.

    I'm not real familiar with those controllers. How are you connecting to it? if by Bluetooth could you do me a favor and do the following steps: Connect the controller Go to windows search (can press Win+S) Type "Set up USB game controllers", you will see a control panel option show up as you type it by the same name. Click on that. In the window that opens you should see a controller listed there Find the one that corresponds to your xbox controller select it press properties You should see a screen like the one below. Press the share button and let me know if any of the buttons on the bottom of the screen light up and if so which one.

    I'm just going off of your images as I haven't had time to test the theme but the main thing (and I admit it's PRETTY minor) I saw that I'd change is to simply add some margin around the clear logo that is displayed on the left hand side of the view. You have it pushed right up to the sides and it just feels a bit more cramped when you do that. Personally think they look better when you apply a margin to the sides to give the image a bit more "room to breathe".

    Hmm never heard of that issue before. Can you PM me your Data BigBoxSettings.xml file (located in \\LaunchBox\Data\) so I can see if there any settings that may be causing what you are seeing?

    Always cool to see new content creators. Theme looks pretty solid, I'd change a few things but for a first attempt you've done really well. Be cool to see what else you can come up with as you get even more skilled at theming.

    If ya want @JaysArcade you can steal/use the xaml files from my TrueVert theme to use regarding the options menu. I do realize theming System/Options views in Big Box for Vert themes can be quite the task.

    I don't personally use the system or have a need for the artwork, but really cool to see all the before/after shots. Keep up the good work!

    @wallmachine I was able to find the cause of this and should be fixed in the 11.17 release.
  19. C-Beats
    Also so I am clear, are you seeing one item PERIOD in the view, or are you seeing one game repeated over and over? When this happens can you still press left and right like you were navigating to the next game? If so what happens?
  20. C-Beats
    I looked in the log and didn't see any issues that would point to what you are seeing. Only errors you have in it are binding errors from the theme you were using, which CAN cause issues but I wouldn't think it'd cause the one you were seeing. Is it possible for you to throw your data folder in a zip file and PM it to me so I can take a look and see if we can figure out what's going on.
  21. C-Beats
    I assume you are referring to within Big Box? What version are you running? We've had some performance improvement stuff put into 11.17 beta that may help if not on that already.
  22. C-Beats
    Categories tab lets you filter based on rating, can use that to help thin out titles.
  23. C-Beats
    11.17 beta 1 the loading logic has been altered a bit and your bad characters shouldn't stop the load process. Let me know if you still have issues starting up LaunchBox in that version (preferably in the 11.17 beta testing thread).
  24. C-Beats
    @JaysArcade @lexx Thanks for the reports I have found the cause to both and have code changes in place. Will reach out once we have a public release with the fixes in so you two can confirm on your end.

    Demo Mode

    C-Beats replied to dov_EL's topic in Features

    No we have attract mode that will hover over a game for a few seconds then move to another. This allows you to view video snaps and details of the game (if the theme presents it), but doesn't actually launch the game. Can also be used as a screensaver.
