Sure, what emulator are you using?

In the end I came at it a different way. I added Sinden & Demulshooter into an AHK Script instead of using additional applications for demulshooter, so they start when the game is selected. The reason I don't have Sinden run from start up is I have two versions of Sinden, one set to joystick mode and the other set to mouse mode. I flip between the two depending on what the emulator wants.

Hi, I've setup sega model 2 emulator and roms to run through Launchbox, following the Sega Model 2: Setup Guide for Lightguns & Launchbox Youtube video by TKS Sitch Gaming. The video goes into great detail and is very clear, but unlike TKS's other videos like Lightgun games for PCSX2, it does not include the Sinden software to autostart ( usually via a AHK script) on launch of a game and close on exit. It does, however, start up Demulshooter through the additional apps feature in Launchbox. Ideally I would like the Sinden gun software to start first when a game is launched, then a pause for 7 seconds ( this is how long the Sinden software take to initialize on my machine) then run Demulshooter. Finally when the game is exited, then Sinden software should also exit. My thoughts where, maybe the Sinden software should also be added as an Additional app with the game settings, but I scared of messing thing up. Any help on this would be great, even if to say this is not possible. Cheers A TKS Sitch Gaming

Ok, so here's what i've done up to now ( today) Cleared out all instances of Launchbox and retroarch. Disabled nvidia G-sync Scanned the harddrives- fine Installed a fresh launchbox installed a fresh retroarch through launchbox before adding any roms as the retroarch installation progress would freeze at half way, if done after installing roms. installed rom files, not folders with roms in them and copied the roms over to launchbox. Tested roms and they boot as expected. Tried SNES, Genesis, zx spectrum and PSX Roms all boot fine. So at this point I'm still running as the free version. The next step I add my license file it registered fine, then tried the roms again all, fine. So next I restarted Launchbox to make sure it wasn't a fluke and all was still fine. So now I closed launchbox and launched Big Box --- this is where the problems start. I takes 7+ Minutes for Big Box to open up and when it does I cannot really do anything with it. it doesn't see any controllers - tried to set them up in the options, but it freezes Big Box. I tried with and without DS4windows running. Tried again waiting for it to load up then tried to install a theme, in goes through the install process, but then Big box freezes if I try to set the install theme as the default. So then I have to force quit Big Box, which has an effect Launchbox, that now when I start up a rom, it take about 2 -3 mins to boot, it opens retroarch, but in this 2-3 min the retroarch icon in the taskbar is blank until the game finally loads. My only option then is to remove the license file from launchbox and reboot my PC, to get them roms to launch at an expected speed. So to me it looks like a problem with Big Box or my license file ( which I did download a fresh copy too- still no luck) I've just installed the upadate that just came out and no change. So basically I can only run it as a free verison ( my controller does work with the roms though), but if I sdd my license and try to run Big Box everything falls apart. I'm Stumpped

Hi, I purchased the premium version of Launchbox and downloaded and installed the latest version as of today> Also installed the required dot.sdk and a fresh version of retroarch through launchbox. I started of by linking some snes roms and selecting a few media files and let it use the retroarch installed as the chosen emulator. games take over a minute to start up. Big Box takes over 6 minutes to startup. I uninstalled everything and installed fresh, this time only adding 1 snes rom and 4 media files. Still over a minute to start the game from launchbox and still 6+ minutes to launch big box. If I try to change any settings in Big Box it takes over 3 minutes to react to anything I select. Launchbox wanted to change to direct x settings, which I agreed to, is this normal pratcice. My setup is an i7 9700f processor 32 gig of ram Windows 10 Home NVIDIA Geforce RTX 2070 Super Any help would be great. Cheers A
