  1. Fantastic plugin this is, great job 👍 It works perfectly for me. This may be beyond what you're trying to do here, but what I would love to see is to be able to add DAT files or scan a folder with multiple data files in that have been filtered through something like Retool so we can compare our collections to them to get a one-game-one Rom (1G1R) setup instead of reading the Launchbox database (which has a lot of regions missing). Btw the completion image made me chuckle when I saw it, i want to see that for everything 😁
  2. Would it be possible to add new CTC files to the original post? CTC 3.2 crashes when you try and view the wheelsgamesview with these older 2.3 versions. Thanks

    Roms on a NAS

    Right, so I figured out a way around it and it's the same way I get eXoDOS to load up quickly. Basically, just symlink all the games folders to your local drive and copy a couple of real folders/files over so it reads them off the local drive and not hundreds, possibly thousands of tiny files over the NAS. For Linux based TP games, it's the prod, programs and snd folders in the data folder if they have them. I've only tested a couple so far though so if anyone needs this kind of info let me know and I'll share it when I'm done And For anyone that has this issue with eXoDOS, you just need the util folder and its contents on your local drive (with the whole ExoDOS folder symlinked) as that has thousands of the config files in and you'll launch exoDOS games from your symlinked setup on your local drive.

    Roms on a NAS

    Digging this up again and was wondering what everyone’s experiences are with the new Linux based games on over a NAS? Every other emulator and even non-Linux based game on TP work great, it’s just the newer Linux based games which play fine but take a really long time to load. I was thinking of hardlinking them but it doesn’t look like you can do that on different filesystems and while you can softlink, there is no point doing that. Anyone have any ideas on a way around this?
  5. I just gavce it a quick test and get the same error. The quick options are blanked out as well so cant choose "don't link anything"
  6. I'll give it a go in an hour or so buddy. I'm also going to transfer some games over to my SSD to test it as it should be ran properly as well so everything is on the same drive.
  7. Thanks for the explanation. For now is there any way to turn off all the patch, dgvoodo features etc that are hardlinked so I can just test out the controller functions?
  8. Thanks, what you have done with the app now is a work of art with all these features you added. Do we have some debug file? A lot of my games won't load when I click "Play game" and I'm not sure why so can't really test this extensively. I'm also struggling to map the inputs for the Gun4ir. Nothing seems to be happening when I set Gun4ir in the device, I can map the keyboard and controllers but nothing populates the boxes when I use the gun. And just a few minor things and are just tweaks really. Atm we can't click finalize unless we fill in 6 - Set up your TP Online profile part. I don't use TP online so I just entered some text in there to continue but it would be nice for a check box or dropdown just to be able to skip sections so we can continue. Maybe an option of where to install the patches as my games are on a NAS and it was really slow installing, whereas my Teknoparrot emulator is on a SSD on the PC so it may have been better going there. Not a big problem as this it just for the initial install I guess. You mentioned already about the UI and can confirm in 4K 250% the main app doesn't fit the screen.
  9. Hi mate, with v0.10 off github i don't get a wizard when launching. I saw both of your links are the same was one meant to be for a newer version and the other the patches?
  10. How do we install this? I have created a fresh V0.10 install but the TAXPatches.0.9.full.7z just has patch.json and 20'000 files in with no extensions and I'm not sure what to do with it.
  11. Good stuff. Always good to fill in missing gaps. Do you have any plans to do the Namco System 357? That’s another I’m missing
  12. Is it just me, but for a while now in Launchbox platforms never load up after just one click? I have to select one, select something else then reselect it for it to load said platform up.
  13. Hi mate, I've tried your latest version V0.10 and am still having the issue I mentioned a few posts above with not being able to scroll down and select save on a 4K screen with scaling at 250%.
  14. Not a bug but a request that I suggested a long time ago on Bitbucket but I didn't get a response and it seems like a really easy thing to implement. I know it's not the place to ask but my post on bitbucket has been lost in time lol Please add "Open Video Folder" to the other options in the right-click File management options 😁
  15. That sound good to me mate, I currently have Xbox Elite and Xbox one configs in there and it works great. The only issue with the master folder would be actually finding the names of the controllers. It’s @zugswang PDP Rock Candy Controller that has me thinking the there will be quite a lot of Xbox variants, and as for third party ones who knows.
  16. No worries. I can assure everyone it's safe, for some reason Windows Defender doesn't like complied Ahks. https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=56520 Here's the original file so anyone can see what it does and if you have Autohotkey installed you can just run the Ahk if you want as is for it to work or right-click it and compile it yourself into an executable but that's not needed if you have ahk installed aready. Controller_Name_Changer.ahk
  17. @Warped Polygon Hi mate i had an alert about what i used to edit the files but it's disappeared. I sent you a script a while back but have made a new one that's easier to use and has a GUI. It's here if you want to add it to your post. Controller_Name_Changer.zip You can either put the .exe in the \Flycast\mappings folder and it will populate the path automatically or run it from anywhere and browse for that path. Pressing the Escape button will close the script.
  18. It's some I made myself and a mis-match of packs I curated, so they weren't scraped from LB. Mainly it was all the games with special characters that weren't being picked up because of the lack of the _ conversion and when you have 4-5 per game they soon add up.
  19. Just an update @superrob3000 plugin worked flawlessly and now all the files not matching on 13.14 now all get picked up. Note to self, start naming all files after the game title 😂
    Absolutely brilliant plugin to bring your image and video filenames up-to date with the new stricter title matching as of 13.14 Just an example of what it did in my PS2 collection. 1311 Image's missing after the update, after following the instructions and using this plugin only 3!! (and they are duplicates and have nothing to do with this plugin) This has saved so much time and I would recommend everyone to run this and set it to rename as the title, that way you won't ever have to edit the filenames again yourself as it'll match the LB database. I can't thank you enough 👍
  20. @superrob3000 wow thanks, I'll give it a go asap Just to give the devs an idea on what this new name matching has done on some platforms I randomly tried. So this is missing media I got from the cleanup tool in 13.12 and then 13.14 Platform - 13.12 - 13.14 NDS - 2 - 58 NES - 0 - 248 GBA - 0 - 37 Wii -13 - 495 Megadrive - 0 - 54 PS1 - 1 - 56 PS2 - 3 - 1311
  21. So i have a question regarding my missing images. I ran an image cleanup and have way too many files that I'd have to rename that it's not finding now due to the new matching. So going off my last post the previous version found all these images fine so would I break anything if I ran the 13.12 Setup.exe (I don't have 13.13 for some reason) overwriting 13.14, then ran the Image Renamer Plugin to change the files to the games titles and then reinstall 13.14? Alternatively, should i just wait for the next beta if you are adding the 3rd step @faeran mentioned?
