C-Beats

Apologies @Fragger didn't see the post. How did you install the GOG games that the import isn't finding? Did you download the installer/package from GOG directly? Are you sure you are using the right account credentials (only ask because I some how have two GOG accounts and often log into the wrong one)? The scan looks specifically for metadata files that GOG installers put into the directory of a game (files start with goggame...) if those files are in the directory we have no way of knowing it's a GOG game vs a standard executable game.

What do you mean by "vector logos"? I assumed you meant SVG files, but these images are PNG so figured I was missing something.

Do you mean specs for a PC that can emulate current gen systems? LaunchBox's requirements are pretty minimal so wanted to be clear what you were asking.

I'm not 100% sure as I don't use the plugin OR Steam overlay, but FAIRLY certain that is what this plugin is attempting to do for you.

Think you can snap a pic of what you're referring to? I didn't think the new context menus sizes were changed at all with the new dark theme so be curious to see what you're seeing. Also what screen resolution / scaling are you running?

@MadK9 @Rlad Can I get one of you to confirm this is fixed for you? @The Papaw Can you confirm this is fixed for you?

I would then try to run Command Prompt as administrator and run the following command "sfc /scannow" (without quotes) and let that process run, then restart your computer, and see if that fixes it. It basically scans your computer's system files and make sure nothing is corrupted and corrects any corruptions it finds. We've seen that help fix that error in the past as well.

Typically this is caused by an issue with you video card and rendering DirectX. Always best to make sure you're video drivers are up to date when seeing this.

If you're looking for dedicated hardware for this purpose you could also check out Elgato's Stream Deck or other similar products.

If the game has an ESRB rating listed on the Steam page it is ok to use that rating. The only time I could see changing an ESRB rating from what the developer has put on their page is if the following occurs: 1) the rating changes on the Steam page 2) the rating found on ESRB rating is more strict/severe than listed on Steam Typically with rating systems the company has to register the game for consideration with the review board of that entity, but if they do not hear back within a given period of time they are allowed to use the rating they believe they would get until they hear back from the review board saying they no longer can. There are also a LOT of developers (especially indie) that self-regulate and apply their own rating and don't submit any official requests to ESRB directly (which is probably why their database seems pretty empty in comparison). I would rather us use the rating the developers give then none at all since they should be pretty close to accurate. Accurate ESRB ratings on the product page influence a LOT and so it's pretty rare that dev's are blatantly marking their product wrong.

There is no currently built in way of doing this. You COULD potentially do it via File Explorer though. Navigate to each image folder that you want to purge, then move out any file that contains "*-01.*" (without quotes), then delete any file that remains, then move the 01 images BACK to the folder. Rinse and repeat for all folders. Would definitely want to be careful doing things that way though.

Only thing that affects the image save logic (other than the controls in the image page) is the games Title or Platform, so not sure why you would be seeing that. You always seen this happen or this new to the beta?

This thread is for the beta version of LaunchBox (12.0 - beta 1 as of right now). If you're still on 11.17 I'd appreciate it if you would create a new thread elsewhere with your issue, or opt-in to the beta and let us know if you still are experiencing issues in the beta version.

I mean is the LaunchBox games database ID of a game you are importing with the wizard the same as a game you already have in your LaunchBox library? Just trying to see if I can find a reason for what you are seeing.

Hmm, do you have the same game in your GOG library? Does it show in the last page of the GOG import at all?

That value isn't populated very many places: GOG Import and Options>Integrations>GOG>Associate Games process are the only processes I can think of off hand that populate that field. Would think one of them would have.

Would have to look in your Windows.xml file. Find the game entry in there and remove the line that says "<GogAppId>...</GogAppId>". I'd make sure you have a backup though before manually altering your files

Just checked the game on the GamesDB and didn't see any image like that. Entry is here: https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/images/12881 Is it possible you grabbed the image from EmuMovies?

GOG App ID's are assigned exclusively via the GOG import, if you have a game that isn't GOG that launches I would assume you have a data corruption issue. Get the information Neil is requesting and we can try to narrow down the cause.

Would do the same as FauxVert does, set the Width equal to the screen height, and vice versa. Then set the text render transform to rotate it. I doubt we have a startup theme that does this though.

All custom values are strings values, you cannot create a custom field of other data types. When adding the field to the game you enter it into the game as Field/Value pair, you don't put all possible values in the value column.

If you use the middle option in that wizard (Yes, but do not replace) we don't change any metadata that has information in it and only download images you don't already have. Which SOUNDS like what you are after. Let me know if I'm off base though.
