That context menu has been in since 10,11 beta build. You can't select a group of items from it but you can highlight a group in the grid and then check/uncheck them en masse.

You talking about the Cleanup Media tool? You have the Select All/None buttons on bottom and you can select any group of rows and then right click and Check/Uncheck your selected row.

LaunchBox will randomly pick an image from all images of the image type it has been told to use for that image priority. If you are telling it to use 3D Box images and that games has 3 and all are either FOR the region that game is in or are not region specific than LaunchBox will pick randomly from the 3. There is no current way to assign priority to the individual image you'd prefer to see.

Personally if you are only looking to manually create a theme messing with XAML files I would skip Visual Studio all together and just use VS Code and download a WPF extension for it.

This happens when the main window closes unexpectedly and we still tell the program to use it. I've not seen this one before though and based on where the program say's it crashed I'm a bit perplexed since that code is all handled by .NET. Could you try and install a fresh install in a different directory and see if the problem persists? Also can you open LaunchBox at all or does it throw the same error?

Yes. Image Priority defaults were altered in 10.15 release. Some of the defaults just didn't really make sense and so they were changed.

Nah I should have been clearer. Yeah, anything can go in the name, if you want to mimic the importer you would just call it "Play Steam Version" (without quotes). You would put the string I told you about in the Application Path. Command line parameters can be left blank.

Then should be able to just assign Guid.New() (or whatever the equivalent code is for whatever language you are using). As long as you don't assign the playlist an ID that is already in use you should be fine.

Only way currently is to add an additional app with the steam launch url ("steam://rungameid/{steamappid}" without quotes and replace "{steamappid}" with the app ID of the game in question. You can then scrape for Steam. Remove the additional application when done (optional).

Log into steam in offline mode and the prompt won't display.

Are you writing 100% external code or are you creating a plugin for LaunchBox? The answer would change the suggestion.

When is the last time you did an integrity check on your drive? Big Box shouldn't ever be affecting you the way you described. It is possible though that a bad sector could cause issues similar to some of the symptoms you are referring to. Also would be worth while to enable debug logging if not on already and then posting the log to see if there is anything in there that could provide more clues as to what is happening.

Pretty sure we have a ticket for it, but if not that is the best place for it.

Just looked though and we bind LastPlayed as a string not a DateTime so that won't work. Won't currently be able to change the date format that way.

Should also be able to just use: Text="{Binding LastPlayed, StringFormat={}{0:dd/MM/yyyy}}" or can use the OS settings by using the following: Text="{Binding LastPlayed, StringFormat={}{0:d}}"

Glad it worked out.

You would need to make your own Badge Plugin to create your own badge. Badge interface is pretty simple but you would need at least entry level C# knowledge/skills to do create one.

Top of the webpage go to Help & Support > Request a Feature. We track feature requests there so that other users can vote on them. This is personally a new one for me. Do those games not produce an executable you can just drag into LaunchBox? What information do you think we would be able to scrape and from what source?

I would review that your background image priorities didn't get messed up. Inside of LaunchBox go to Options > Legacy > Images > Background Priority. Hit the "Revert to default" button and then set them the way you had them originally. This should correct what you are seeing.

I would take your new install that is working and move over the all the data files from the previous install to it. Only do the files in folder UNDER data, not the files in the root of data (Settings.xml, BigBoxSettings.xml, etc). Those files have all your platform, playlist, and game information in them. Try to open Big Box after that and see if it works. If not you may need to do it one at a time and see which breaks it as you could have a potential data issue causing the error. IF that works you can start migrating your media back over (Images and Videos folder).

Yeah. All you have to do is add a new game and set the application path to the correct path (which is "steam://rungameid/251570") but replace the numeral with the game you are adding (and don't add the quotes). Once added you can use the Download Metadata and Media tool or the Add/Edit game window to pull Steam metadata/media like you normally would as well as determine install state on startup and launch via Steam.

We don't use local files to determine what games you do or do not have. We utilize the Steam API. Because of this we can only see what they tell us is there. Unfortunately it would seem not all games appear in that API and I have been unable to find a definitive list of why that is the case.

This behavior is intentional for multiple reasons. First is because in code we ask the program for that folder during several processes and need to know both 1) is it there and 2) can we add it. If we don't see it, and also can't create it there could be some IO permission errors occurring and we need to stop what we are doing until corrected. Another reason we do it is for new users. Having the folder available makes adding things to the appropriate folder much easier because a user doesn't have to create the folder and make sure it is named right, it is already there and they can simply drag files to it.

Check your background image priorities and make sure everything is still turned off.

Audit takes real time information, we don't cache/save any information in that window. All columns should be able to be copied over to Google Sheets or Excel. Checkboxes should read as "TRUE" or "FALSE" and links should just copy over the link text. If there are columns that aren't doing so please let me know.
