    Shown that way because that's how it's set up in RetroAchievements and their API. They don't count softcore in your score and so it doesn't show as such in LaunchBox. I know we've been asked to show it anyway for a while so I'd ASSUME we have a feature request ticket for it you can vote on. If by some weird mishap there isn't you could add it. I know you DEFINATELY aren't the first to voice a similar desire.

    Just making sure you were aware, the plugin description listed out the process flow for using the Add/Edit screen a single game at a time. Wanted to make sure you knew that wasn't the ONLY way to adjust custom fields. I personally use custom fields quite heavily in my build and haven't noticed a HUGE time sink when saving (against a library of around 15k games) but as I said before I do agree a plugin could speed things up. Just making sure you knew you had options and glad you were able to find one that works best for you and your workflow (and sharing that option with others).

    Just commenting to make sure you're aware. You CAN alter Custom Fields via the Bulk Edit menu. Select several games at once you want to adjust the field on and then press CTRL+E and in the field drop down look for "Custom Field:..." (without quotes) and then set the values in the controls that appear after. Plugin like this would still reduce clicks required, but wanted to make sure you were aware.

    Good news is that library setup can be done entirely on the free version. Can just download it and see for yourself without losing much. I admit I'm a bit biased but personally feel LB is pretty easily one of the easiest front ends to set up. Point it to your ROMs and let it do every for ya. For most emulated systems it'll tell ya the recommended emulator and be able to grab it for ya. After you run the import and let it grab the emulator you just need to tweak any emulator settings you want and you should be up and running. As long as you're not going super complicated you should be able to go from install to launching games with LB within the hour (depending on how much media you grabbing ofc). If you decide to go down this rabbit hole and run into any specific issue forums are here to ask the community for help. We also have several videos on YT and Featurebase (Help and Support link at the top of the forums) has several help guides as well.

    You can add the folder to your exclusion list and see if that helps.

    Honestly sounds like you have an overzealous AV application quarantining files on you. If you have one running I'd shut if off and see if you still have the issue.

    Don't BELIEVE so. Was thinking we had code in place that says "Don't display lists with less than X items". I can't remember if it was a XAML property or something just baked in. Probably best to file a bug report for it. While you're waiting for a resolution maybe see about installing/adding some better games

    C# is cross platform. No need to port to a different language. The UI framework we use for LB Windows (WPF) is the thing that isn't cross platform and is the reason we can't just publish the app on Linux.

    Fairly certain even the regular ROM import checks Vita3ks digital hard drive and only allows you to import games properly installed to it. Vita3k last I knew won't even let you launch a game that hasn't been installed that way first via command line. If you REALLY were hell bent on manually shunting that txt file in and running things like that you can manually add the files one by one by simply using the Add New Game feature (press Ctrl+N) and manually setting the application path/emulator for the file in question. Doing so is pretty tedious in comparison but should make it at least possible for you to do so with your setup.

    What you're asking about is platform specific so best to clarify that (I assume) you mean Android. I don't know of any other PS2 emulators on Android other than AetherSX2. I believe it's the only one currently in development (that being said I don't monitor that side of things very closely so I could be misinformed).
  11. C-Beats
    Yeah, as I remember those views are all designed running the assumption that the dev made it a single row/column wheel and not a wall layout. I'm fairly certain the only platform view that supports walls and works the way you're expecting are the new hybrid views. I'd have to double check to be 100% sure though.

    Can try something like this BoxesContentView.xaml

    Glad you were able to get it sorted out. Thankfully most of the current LB themes are in Theme Manager which you can use to download and apply LB themes to potentially avoid some of this (if you meant to apply a LB theme that is). I'd recommend trying Omni, I hear who ever made that one really smashed it out the park

    If you are using Nvidia cards you can go the Nvidia control panel and turn on full range color profile and this will go away. By default Nvidia clamps color values for some reason and it causes the fade in from black on EmuMovie vids to play incorrectly when played via WMP. It'd do that even in stand alone WMP.

    With LaunchBox closed navigate to \\LaunchBox\Data\Settings.xml and open it in a text editor. There should be something that says "<Theme>...</Theme>" (without quotes). Change the value between those tags to "Default" (without quotes) and then save and close the file and reopen LB. Looks like you put a BB theme in the LBTheme folder and it's causing issues. LB Themes go in LBThemes folder and BB themes go in the Themes folder.

    Big Box in controller/keyboard mappings has an option for "Show Index". This is used to force open the index on wall views since you can't move counter to the wheel to open the index like you can in other views.

    Already resolved in the latest beta update.

    I personally still run Win10 and have no desire to move to 11 so we definitely do our best to ensure it works. There are two error logs created when we crash, one simply states the app crashed and tells you what app and the other has the actual error. Looks like you grabbed the first, we'd need the second to be able to really nail down what is going on in your setup.

    Default input settings for those are the arrow keys and enter/escape are select/back. With LB/BB closed you can go to \\LaunchBox\Data\BigBoxSettings.xml and delete that file and reset all your BB settings to default (including key bindings)

    Not a bug. You have an abnormal region string on a game. Region isn't typically multiple regions, but when it is they should be joined with a semicolon not the and symbol. Your game region should look like "North America; United States" (without quotes) and then it'd function the way it normally does.
  21. C-Beats
    If running a Nvidia card make sure to set the color depth setting to "Full". By default it's set to limited which clamps pixels on either extreme end of the contrast scale which causes EmuMovies fade in from black to look all weird and pixelated as described.
  22. C-Beats
    Maybe not in standard WPF. You definitely can with LB controls though. FlowVideo can be used to play only Theme Videos and just set to full screen, then elsewhere bind to it's "HasVideo" property and when it's false do other stuff.
