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...

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

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).

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

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

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 ?

nice ! i could make platform video as background thanks

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

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...)

stupid question : where do i have to put the xml ?

I just played the game "Magic Sword" many times, but it stills show "High Score supported but no community hight score found yet". Is the problem on my side only ? I use Mame 0.220 and latest version of Launchbox (problem occured on 10.14 and 10.15 beta 1). Same problems goes with Golden Axe.

i didn't do any windows update. Neither added plateform. the only thing i did was creating child category for my most played platform. Bet even if i limit my search to a single platform the problem is the same. In fact it doesn't even cache anything. When i click on a category or enter a name in the search bar, Launchbox has no reaction, like if it was freezing and the hard drive is not reacting. Then after 30 second it's like anything "unfreeze" (meanwhile, the computer is not frozen, i can do things without slowliness. Just launchbox have that problem. EDIT : To be more precise, only the "search" function seems to be super slow to react. I don't have that problem in Big Box, and anything else in Launchbox is reacting normally. But search bar, gosh just horrible ;(

Today, using Launchbox as usual, with no changes made for few days, and Launchbox has become incredible slow. When i mean slow, i mean it can takes up to30/40 secondes to display the games of a platform, up fo 40 seconds to display the result of the search bar..... Any idea why this happens all of a sudden ? I still have about 25.000 games over a dozen of platforms. Nothing huge.

i'd kill for such functionality....... who wanna be killed ?

wooooooowwwww.... that makes my day ! Its Xmas before Xmas.... being noob to Shaders, what "fast" and "sharp" means ? (i mean for example what is the diference between "shadername" and "shadername-fast" ?)

Wow, super shaders. Just a question, i'm using some of them, but i wish i could turn off the vignette in your shaders, as when i'm playing my real Sega Genesis on my CRT there is no vignette, i'd like to feel the same.

Bally Astrocade Clear Logo View File This is just a modest contribution here. I didn't like much the "simple text in plain color" that comes when scrapping my Bally Games. Nothing extraordinary here, I just wanted to make a more appealing text for my wheel. So i thought i would share with the community for people who would want it. It's the 48 clear logo that match my collection. Submitter Elhora Submitted 04/23/2020 Category Game Clear Logos  

Hi Everything is in the question. For now, i have all my Setup in a 4TB drive, following the Launchbox structures. But i have a sleeping SSD in my drawer that waits to be used, and i was wondering if having Launchbox and roms on my 4TB Drive and move the Media (images, video, musics....) on a separate SSD would help to increase performance of BigBox interface (BB is running flawlessly, but when i use the wheel too for many seconds in a raw, the logo of the games take a long time to display) ? If yes, is there a procedure to globaly reconfigure the paths , or i have to go in each platform to change manually the path for video, images, manuals....) ?

hi, i have little questions i've just downloaded those 2 wonderfuls package : eXodos v.4 and Win3xO v1.0. In launchbox, i would have to keep the 2 packages separated in 2 plateforms "MS-Dos" and "Win3x" 1/ If i understand well i have to install each pack separately in 2 differents folders then put those 2 folders in my launchbox "games" folder and do the import procedure for each platform ? 2/ can a game be installed from Launchbox after import or i have to do it in Meagre ?

Hi, Here is my point. I have 3 plateforms : Microsoft MSX, Microsoft MSX2 and Microsoft MSX2+ which works super fine. But as sometimes it's difficult to remember if a game was MSX or MSX2, i've made a playlist "MSX" that content all MSX, MSX2 and MSX2+ games". The problem now is that on my computer wheel, i have 4 names (MSX playlist, plus the 3 plateforms) I wish i could just hide those 3 plateforms from the wheel so i could just see the "MSX" playlist. Is it possible to do this ?

No, i did it few days ago, but i'll do the MSX 2 platform today or tomorrow so i'll see how often it happens and i'll note the name. Edit : i remember some : Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei Master Takahashi's Adventure Island Mr. Do!

unfortunately, if less comon, the bug is still there. I thought it disappeared but after adding MSX platform i could notice that some of the games still had the problem. The percentage dropped from 40 to 5% of games, which is a huge improvement. I also noticed that sometimes, not all the arts are downloaded. Example : sometimes a game doesn't come with fanart- background, so i'm googling it in case it already exist, and many times i google show me one, it's one that comes from the launchbox database !! Oo

Hello boys and girls. I have a little question : right now, i have many platforms fully configured (roms working, with full meta/media/art that i will not touch/update anymore). What i would like is to merge some of them that use the same emulator for convenient reason (For example Sega Genesis and Sega Megadrive or PC-Engine and Turbographx-16 that were the same console named differently depending the world area) Is there a clean and simple way to do that or a tutorial ? i wouldn't like starting to mess with the config files or moving roms or files without being sure i'm doing right.

i've also noticed that the last beta gives me all the available meta/art. At least i didn't have it on the last 2 platform i added (MSX and PC Engine). This bugs seems to be gone away.
