  1. I ended up using an AHK script to remap my exit button using #ifwinactive. That way it maps it to ESC only when in Big Box which functions correctly.
  2. Title says it all. I have configured a specific button as the "pause" button in Big Box controller settings. When I try to use that same button as the "back" button it doesn't function. Is this a bug? I am currently using an ipac configured in Xinput mode with the button I am trying to use configured as player 1 button 9 (Joy9 is how autohotkey sees it). Any ideas?
  3. You copied the AHK script. It is not interchangeable with bat. You need AHK installed and you need to change the extension to .ahk. Aso, make sure the directories referenced match your installed locations for demulshooter and the exe.
  4. What guns are you using? You're using demulshooter, not Demul. You need to write an AHK or bat to launch the exe and demul. See the Sinden wiki, it's a good reference for all lightgun games: https://www.sindenwiki.org/wiki/Wild_West_Shootout
  5. Title says it all. I have a few games that need more like 45s to load fully, is there a way to manually increase startup duration? - The gui only goes up to 30.
  6. Hop on the discord if you want specific answers. It's pretty easy to create 2 separate autohotkey scripts, one to launch the software: Run, Run, C:\arcade\sinden\Player1.lnk and one to close it: Process,Close,Lightgun.exe Run,taskkill /im "Lightgun.exe" /F WinActivate LaunchBox Big Box ;this line might not be needed but it can't hurt either. You can use one as the startup app and one as the exit app. It's weird you mention Windows games not being in focus. I would try creating a shortcut to the lightgun.exe file and right clicking>properties>target and add -silent to the end of the target so it looks like this: C:\arcade\sinden\player1\Lightgun.exe -silent That way the shortcut will launch the Sinden software minimized. I know there are some issues with the current software minimizing to tray so keep that setting off. Keeping the software minimized might help with the Windows games playing in the background.
  7. There's a bezel pack for model 2 emulator as well. Probably the easiest solution. https://sindenlightgun.miraheze.org/wiki/Model2
  8. I guess that was what I was asking. Is there a way to modify it so that if game and platform images do not exist it uses the images that the default LB pause screen uses? My use case: I have a 6 button arcade cabinet. I want to have specific game controls for console platforms, and maybe a few per game controls. Mame/Arcade controls are so varied a "platform" controller image for Mame might just make it more confusing if it shows buttons that are not applicable to a game (ie. buttons 4, 5, 6). The default pause screen does have some basic controls images for Mame/Arcade games and if not the artwork it pulls in would be much preferable to a black screen.
  9. Is there a way to pull in the default pause screen images if you do not have one for a certain platform/game?
  10. I am using Launchbox/Big Box in an arcade cabinet. I use an IPAC2 and have it set in keyboard mode for all of the emulators I am running and the Big Box interface. The problem is some Steam games (added as Windows games) like MK11 that do not work with 2 players with the IPAC in keyboard mode. Using the WinIPAC utility and CMD with authotkey I wrote the following to be executed when launching one of these games. It will load a gamepad configuration file that is stored in the WinIPAC directory and wait for me to press my hotkey to exit the game, once pressed it will exit the game and switch back to keyboard.
