  1. I removed your new thread. No need to create a second one. I verified your profile permissions are set correctly as I can see use your username in the importer and get your game list. I left instructions for you on the bitbucket ticket you have open but at this point it may be some connection issue between you and the API call. Hoping the log files may help narrow down the cause.
  2. We have a bug in that some of the files tied to this change aren't being placed correctly in the theme folder. Once done this feature uses a converter we've had but was only used on an unreleased theme of mine that should display a button image based on the input you have bound to that action. You won't see the image right now, but the XAML is in place and can be gleaned if you want to add it to another theme.
  3. Thanks for the report @kobaturtle. I tracked down the cause and it's not something that was the theme itself but related to another change we made. This would have affected other themes as well as Big Box pretty heavily so was a nice catch!
  4. Are you referring to the top section where the clear logo is or the rest of the panel where the actual game information resides?
  5. Run the installer over your current install. Make sure that it doesn't try and place it in a \\LaunchBox\LaunchBox folder though. Installer doesn't overwrite any of your data and should repair any broken/missing files.
  6. Post on the support thread which view and I'll help ya there. Don't want to derail this thread.
  7. If you mean Skraper the app you need to verify it's not leaving "-backup" files in your \\LaunchBox\Data\Platforms folder. It's default settings do this and it really messes things up for the app. Also if you manually add a game and set the platform to what you want that process will make the platform if it doesn't exist. You shouldn't need to create it after the fact as well.
  8. Yeah, it'd be interesting to tackle something like down the road, but I've definitely got a few things that have to get taken care of before I can start entertaining features like that.
  9. Yeah, I need to get my work finished up with CHAOS. It's what I use to read my comics but haven't as much time as I'd like to work on it with the kids on summer break.
  10. That's a file that just lists dependencies for the application in a way other programs can read and shouldn't impact the application itself at all. I have jotted down not to remove it in future releases. You can update to the beta to see if you notice any difference as that file should be in that installer.
  11. Shouldn't really need to upload covers for magazines/comics for most of the ways I know of them being distributed. Just use the image from the first page. I can't imagine it's hard to find software that does it for you automatically (though admit I've not looked).
  12. I've never heard of this issue or seen it reported. What steps are you doing to add the game?
  13. It's possible I didn't get them added in as I previously didn't use them. I can take a look at getting them added when I update the theme for the 13.6 release.
  14. There currently isn't any functionality like what you're asking for in app. You may be able to reach out to a plugin dev and convince them to make something that did that. It wouldn't be overly difficult to make.
  15. As stated in my announcement. Our hands are tied and until RetroAchievements gets their API back up there isn't much we can do to restore functionality. They've made progress and updated their website with changes required for the upcoming API fixes but they have not announced an ETA on when they expect the API will be back up.
  16. I just updated Omni to 1.3 which adds the notification system introduced in 13.6 Beta 3. PLEASE NOTE: This version requires you be on LaunchBox v13.6 Beta 3 or newer to work! @Jakatsu This version does NOT address the bugs you've found. I have confirmed they exist but haven't gotten them corrected yet. I do plan to address them before 1.4.
  17. For any theme developers wanting to get the notification center (the new notification bell icon/button) to your themes you simply need to copy lines 312-400 of Default's MainView to your theme and then tweak to your liking. Let us know if you're having too much problems trying to integrate it into your themes.
  18. np @KingSlayer420. Wasn't insinuating you were attempting to mislead or anything. The shaders do make things look far better, just comes at a cost. For me the startup thing is noticeable but not the end of the world. Still starts up faster than any AAA title, but if you don't have the GPU to keep frames at 60+ not sure they worth it.
  19. I personally use HSM bezels on my PC and enjoy them quite a bit. Though I feel it should be said that HSM shaders (unless a recent update improved them) have a SIGNIFICANT performance impact and WILL cause the first time RetroArch starts to take considerably longer. The shaders also hit your graphics card FAR harder than most shaders. You won't get a much better visual experience than the stuff HSM is putting out, but you definitely need more juice behind them to get them to work than other shaders.

    Glad you were able to figure it out. Let me know if you run into anything else.
  21. We have a few known issues affect stability in some themes that we are actively looking to improve. I don't believe any fix will make it into 13.6 for them. Right now Default theme should be stable, but some of the issues do still affect other themes. What theme are you running that is failing that quickly?
  22. Yeah, those options have their own view file. I'll have to see which it is, but it's the views that start with the word "Options". Each type of menu item has it's own file. Just not entirely sure what one is driving those two options.
  23. Does Windows play the disconnect sound when that happens? Sounds like there is something weird going on with the monitor but I'm not entirely sure how best to troubleshoot that. I've never seen anything like this reported. Only suggestions I have right now is just the standard stuff: Check video drivers, open command prompt as admin and run "sfc /scannow" (without quotes) and see if the system repair fixes anything. Also if you don't already can install/repair your Direct X (I believe WPF will default too 12 if you have it).
