Like I said before, the huge advantage of adding the platform to the database is the possibility of seeing on any device via the web browser what kind of games we own on which device.

I think as other people did to the Microsoft Windows platform unless they are PS4 or Meta Quest exclusive.

I get this error while using the Steam Deck Client Beta on Windows. I hope they don't change too much when it is getting officially released for everyone :S.

Windows 11, Steam stable (not beta) - still working for me. Perhaps you have the Steam Client Beta installed? If valve changes sth the beta branch is most of the time first affected.

BigBox PlatformCategoryPlaylist Selector View File 2022-03-23 10-33-23.mp4 A plugin for BigBox that makes it possible to have a playlist/platform carousel inside any game view/theme via simple .xaml edit of any game view. With this plugin you no longer have to leave the game view as you can select every playlist/platform from there! Installation: Globally: Put the BigBoxPCPSelector.dll file into Launchbox/Plugins folder. Per Theme: Put the BigBoxPCPSelector.dll file into Theme's Plugin folder. Theme's Game View files: Edit WallView/TextGame/HorizontalGame View's files by adding the plugin to the user control <UserControl Name="Canvas" ClipToBounds="True" xmlns:PD="clr-namespace:BigBoxPCPSelector.View;assembly=BigBoxPCPSelector" .... /> and after that add the Platform Selector somwhere between the <Canvas> tags as below. These are currently the values you have to give the plugin to work. (Stuff like Position adjustment will be added soon) <PD:PlatformSelector Panel.ZIndex="900" ItemFontSize="20" ItemFontWeight="Normal" ItemForegroundBrush="White" ItemBackgroundBrush="Transparent" SelectedFontSize="30" SelectedFontWeight="ExtraBold" SelectedForegroundBrush="Black" SelectedBackgroundBrush="Transparent"/> Controls: Esc: Activate Plugin Wheel Left/Right: Move carousel index Up: Switch between playlists and platforms Down: Deactivate Plugin Wheel Esc 2x: Escape Menu like default Enter: Confirm Playlist/Platform selection Contribute: Feel free to improve the plugin at https://github.com/Benuno/BigBoxPCPSelector! Any support is appreciated . Thanks to @Fry for the help/initial code structure! Submitter Benuno Submitted 03/23/2022 Category Third-party Apps and Plugins  

Another question I have - why can't additional apps have custom command line parameters when set as a ROM? Because as LaunchBox allows any main ROM entry to have a custom parameter why not for additional ROMs also?

New release guys! The plugin wheel is already usable but not fully matching visually the original mockup - feel free try it out and tell us pls if you have any issues with it. Controls: Press Escape ones to activate, left/right to control carousel, enter for confirmation, another escape press to exit current view like normal behaviour If you want to use the wheel with any other theme, copy the "BigBoxPCPSelector.dll" file from the scala's theme plugins folder into the launchbox/plugins folder and go into any theme's game view .xamls files and paste: - "xmlns:PD="clr-namespace:BigBoxPCPSelector.View;assembly=BigBoxPCPSelector" into the 'UserControl' tag. - <PD:PlatformSelector Panel.ZIndex="90000"></PD:PlatformSelector> between the 'Canvas' open and end tags.

Yep with any theme - for example also with the stark/slipstream theme. Really strange as the right and up/down keys work correct. Bigbox does it like this roughly speaking: - max row number is 6 for example, last row of games is 4 - If you start in last row and press left he will jump to the 4th game in the upper row, after that it will move left until 6th game in the row above. I think Bigbox calculates the position for the upper row wrong - instead of using the max number for game walls with more than max grid width entries it uses the current row count. 2022-03-17 13-00-25.mp4

Strange bug I've noticed with official release. Only happens for me with this game collection/amount of games while pressing left key :S. 2022-03-17 12-00-20.mp4

The Carousel Plugin now has a github page: https://github.com/Benuno/BigBoxPCPSelector!

Works for me (never played it), chose the launcher.exe, runs borderless windowed. Maybe try setting everything with admin rights as I mentioned above (also launchbox.exe, bigbox.exe, launcher.exe), disable uac prompts :? Otherwise idk it should work for you, too. I also use a 4K HDR screen btw.
