Always been driven by that option (which is off by default). That hasn't been changed.

Would probably need to use a newer theme that utilizes WallView to get what you want. Something like "The POC" or "RetroMags". Pulse has a WallView too but I don't think the notes are displayed in that one.

In the View menu there are options to hide games missing certain artwork.

Looks like your error failed to paste to the post. Can you try posting it again so some one can attempt to help you.

That is an option you have to turn on in the General page of the option menu.

Yeah. You can always pick what images types you want to pull in the wizard. You can't change a download job once processed though. You'll have to cancel the job. Clear the space you need, then run the download media tool again after that. I'd also considering setting a media limit amount when doing so to help make sure you don't get a large number of the same image type and blow out your hard drive requirements as well.

Text files are considered documents and is probably why you aren't seeing them in versions. They are probably in your "View Documents" menu section.

Alright. Let us know if you still see it after that so we can make sure we DON'T have a bug on our hands.

No. We would never remove that. In the context menu changes introduced in 12.2 we attempt to syphon your apps into 1 of 3 buckets, each with their own home now in the context menu. Versions - Other playable versions of the game Apps - Applications added to add functionality, or helper apps that aren't the game itself Documents - Extra documentation like manuals, magazines, cheat sheets, etc that have been added to the game. Versions and Apps should appear in the root toward the top by Play, Documents are in the media section. No app should be hidden from the context menu though.

@sundogak I'll take a look tomorrow at what you have reported in 12.3 beta thread. I didn't want the report to get forgotten in that thread now that it's locked and made sure you know we saw the report.

Looks to me that your local GamesDB information is corrupted. Inside of LaunchBox go to the Tools Menu > Download > Force Update Games Database Metadata... and let that process run. Then you should be good to go.

Cool. Like I said this will be corrected in next version, but glad we found you a work around until then.

Can you just put random strings in Username and password in options and tell me if you still get that error?

Do you have an EmuMovies password set in options? The tool doesn't require an EmuMovies account, just trying to narrow down a possible cause. Though this should be resolved in beta (once it's out). That form is being updated from the old WinForm code to WPF. Just trying to see if we can get this resolved for you until then.

I haven't seen any reported issues of it not working, and used mine just the other day with no problem. What isn't working? It not finding games, you getting an error?

What happens when you start trying to download something? Do you get the error again or is something else happening?

You don't need Visual Studio to create a start up theme. You can make it with any text editor. You typically are only creating a single XAML file. If you want to do it in Visual Studio you can but you would have to make the file point to images on your drive directly to see them in preview. Then once you were done switch out the bindings to the ones LaunchBox uses before placing in LaunchBox's theme folder.

Please start your own thread instead of necro'ing another. The issue is probably that you're drive isn't formatted NFTS so you will need to do some extra steps to get some themes to work right inside of Big Box.

If you're in LaunchBox you can also just push the favorite icon in Game Details to quickly favorite/unfavorite a game (assuming the theme you've chosen to use hasn't removed that functionality)

EmuMovies has content that differs from ours (though some images aren't a LOT different). We typically say to download everything you want from LaunchBox first, then use EmuMovies to fill any gaps you have in your collection. If on the current version this becomes even easier with the Media Limit being set since it will grab LaunchBox stuff first, THEN EmuMovies. If you have "Remove Rough Image Match" on we also scan images as you get them to see if they are the same image (but in a different file) and attempt to remove those copies as well to help with any potential duplicate image issues.

I would try running Command Prompt as Administrator and running "/sfc scannow" (Without quotes) and letting it run then restarting your computer. Sounds like the OS data that tells us you have the runtime installed has been corrupted or isn't working correctly. That process should correct.

You can simply delete the Consoles category if you don't want to use it. Right click it and hit Delete from the context menu that appears.

You have to import one platform at a time. You do NOT however have to wait for the media from one platform to finish downloading before you import another. Once you get a notification saying the first batch was imported and you see that LaunchBox is downloading media you can import the next batch.

The install/update process also updates all cores at the same time from the stable build.

Need to install the webm codex for Windows Media Player for Steam videos to show.
