  1. how is that possible ? it's the same usb drive that i move from computer to computer and the problem only occurs on Mame : Retroarch games have shaders on every computer, not Mame. Just like it was not using the same ini file. That's so frustrating. my brain is lost there.
  2. hi everyone. I have a problem i can't really understand. My launchbox is on a portable HDD that i can move between computers. Everything works fine. I have 1 arcade cabinet and one bartop who have exactly the same screen (27" - 4k). I configured my shaders in Mame.ini in my Mame folder to give my game a CRT aspect. On my Bartop it works fine, but for a reason i can't explain, when i put the HDD on my arcade cabinet who have the same screen, the shaders dont apply ! You can't even see the scanline.... And i really dont understand. If the problem was Mame, the shaders should work the same way on both screen ? or there is a parameter i missed somewhere ?
  3. wow, nice work. what is the model of the steering wheel you use ?
  4. haaaaa... i thought it was just a GUI that could handle any theme... Well i have to admit i suck at coding. My knowledge are limited to the Microsoft MSX Basic and Amiga AMOS That doesn't make me any good at Xaml ^^
  5. i use the regular one with Vertical Wheel 1. i tried to open it with Community Theme Créator, just in case i could modify this by myself, but nothing showed up in the software
  6. i mean, on the plateform wheel, i'd like to show only 5 plateforms at a time (right now i think i have 9 displayed) and have bigger plateform logo. I admit i have a little crush in Batocera default wheel theme which have lesser platform but bigger plateform logo with a fade effect^^ -> screenshot attached ) batocera.webp
  7. Wonderful theme ! It's on my arcade cabinet. But i have a question : is it possible to change the number of platforms displayed at the same time and the size of the clear logo ? (i use Plateform Wheel 3 and vertical wheel 1 views)
  8. hello i think i've the same problem. According to me, i think i've configured the good options. I've put the mame.xml file, the color.ini and the mame/cfg path. I've specified i use Launchbox as FE. But under BigBox, some led that should be lit as usable control are off, and when i launch a mame game, all buttons lights when i expected only the button needed for the game should be on. I don't know where i do wrong I use the latest Launchbox and LedBlinky 7.1.0.1
  9. After updating to beta 11.7, i had a crash and when i restarted Launchbox or Big Box, a message telling that my Settings.xml was corrupted and must be restored from backup directory. So i took the latest save and placed the settings.xml file in data folder. Nnow the error message disappeared but Launchbox or BigBox is stuck on black screen on startup. I took a previous settings.xml but still the same problem. Launchbox stay "black" after launch and BigBox display the starup video but right after, same problem ... screen stays black instead au launching the program. Any help ?? i have thousands hours of configuration and scrapping, i wouldn't want to loose anything ;(
  10. ok, i'm stupid why am i trying to configure LB when i need something in BB.......... my brain needs some sleep.
  11. i have a little problem which i'm sure the answer is in front of my eyes... till now, i was using a Xbox controller with LB/BB/Mame and all was working great. Now i have made an arcade cabinet and replaced the xbox controller with an arcade panel connected to the PC with an IPAC (in keyboard emulation mode). when i play in Mame, no problem, all the controls are working fine, but in Launchbox/Bigbox, only the direction controls works. I tried to go in the option to set the control mapping but when i try to press a button on my arcade panel, nothing happens like it's not detected. Any help would be welcome, coz i really dont know how to setup this mess, knowing everything is ok in MAME.
  12. hi everyone. Whatever the theme i use in BigBox, i've notice that the background transition (example : vertical slide) starts right after the "wheel" animation ends. For example, i'm on a platform A, with the video of the Platform A in background, then move to Platform B (so the list slide to platform B clear logo) and once it's done, then the background video of platform B slides in the background. Same happens for games... And this gives me a sensation of slowliness when i browse between platforms and games compate to Recalbax or Batocera on RPi. Is there a parameter in the theme or options that i could change so both animations starts at the same time ? That would make many themes more dynamic and more appealing to me
  13. Hello everyone. Right now, i have all my launchbox set up in my launchbox directory on a 8TB hard drive. I was thinking about moving all the gamesand plateform media (Pictures, logo, video, etc....) on a separate SSD to gain some speed when i navigate through game and platform in BigBox. Is it something relevant ? If yes, how could i easily move all the media to another disk (like batch edit for all games) without having to rescrap everything or reconfigure every games one by one ? Thanks
  14. i have a little question : what is the beta version number right now ? Before the 10.15 official update, i was notified a new beta version several times a week. But since the official 10.15, i still have not been notified of any beta update. As i haven't unchecked anything in my settings, i'd like to know if it's my Launchbox not updating anymore or if it's normal ?
  15. I take advantage of this topic for a similar question. I've updated my mame 0.220 roms to 0.221 roms by replacing the content of roms folder in mame with the new set (roms + chd). How can i do in LB now to "update" my game list (in case some mame games were added or removed) without loosing my playlists and my "favorites" selected games ? i'm afraid if i go to the import process again, i'll have to redo all my favorite selection and playlist....
  16. I use the Beta 7 of Launchbox. As you can see on the screenshot provided my highscore is 58.600 (which is my first score the first time i played) and in the log you can see my highscore is 136.940, which is the second time i played, and it's not updated in launchbox...
  17. i don't know if it can helps, but i've noticed that the hi-score doesn't update when i beat a hiscore in a game i have already played. (in the log here, the first hiscore what updated, the second one was not ) Debug 2020-05-08 12-12-54 PM.log
  18. the fact is i was using MAMEUI64 before the high score thing. Once the high score were implemented, i just switched to mame but i didn't change the path of the roms to not reconfigure all my paths (i dont know how to do this automatically). Is that the problem ? because honestly, the "not recording high score" is like 70% of the time but 30% of times it works (yeah, frustrating specially when i beat my own hi score).
  19. Here is a new log. On the same Launchbox session, columns 2 has its hi score updated, while for Fire Shark, played right after, hiscore just didn't update in Launchbox. Debug 2020-05-06 09-26-05 PM.log
  20. Even with the new beta, i still have some problems with updating hi-score. It seems that in many games (specially the first time i play) once i make a hi score, leave launchbox and play the game again, the new hi-score is not recorded. This is what just happened with Altair and Air Assult. The new hi-score has not been updated Not all the game behave like that. Debug 2020-05-05 06-37-21 PM.log Debug 2020-05-05 10-30-07 PM.log
  21. I recently discovered that Mame scores randomly dont update. Example : This week end i play Andro Dunos. I make a miserable 69000 score. It updates correctly. But hey, i want to beat my own score, and boom, i make a 200.000 score. I'm happy with it and what i realises ? it never updated in Launchbox. It doesn't happens all the times, but it did this to a lot of games like Andro Dunos, Metal Slug, Gradius, etc.... I'm using .220 romset. Wonder if i'm the only one facing that problem ?
  22. nice ! i could make platform video as background thanks
  23. i have 2 little questions : Hatari uses the thumb stick of my controller instead of the D-pad. Is there a way to change that ? Is there a way to use "esc" to quit the emulator ? for now, i just can use F12 then Quit, which is not convenient
  24. Hello, i just have a little question. I'm just sucking more than Linda Lovelace when it comes to xaml. But i'd like to know if there is a way to put a video as main visual for startup theme ? (i'm trying to make a "loading" video per platform that i'd like to play while the game is loading...)
  25. stupid question : where do i have to put the xml ?
