  1. Heya, I've been using Big Box to browse comics and I've only just started learning how to tweak themes. I'm wondering, in the current view XAML, there's a reference to NotesCanvas that pulls the game details. If I want to change the text to read Writer/Artist instead of the Developer/Publisher, how would I go about this? I've searched all the XAML files in the theme but there doesn't seem to be labels that I can actively change. Thanks in advance for any direction.

     

  2. I've attached a recent copy of the ComicInfo.xml that ComicRack puts into .cbz files when it scrapes from ComicsVine.  What I believe would be useful is a Launchbox plug in that will unpack the CBZ, convert the XML (changing field names where necessary) and add it to the playlist .xml data. 

    I might try and work on it this week if I have some free time.

  3. What's the best method to scrape or import data into LaunchBox? I've been investigating a few options for collecting metadata, including Calibre and ComicRack. Any insight or recent updates on best methods would be greatly appreciated.

  4. I went on Moby Games and you can pretty easily request an API key. They've provided me with one and I attempted to use the scraper. Besides setting the key in the dll.config, are there any other steps that I need to complete? I unpacked all the files into the plugins directory, but when I attempted to perform a scrape, I received the following error:

    "Could not load type 'Unbroken.FileHelper' from assembly 'Unbroken, Version=12.13.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'."

    I did happen to notice that the PublicKeyToken is set in the dll.config to "b77a5c561934e089", but the error is returning null. Any ideas how I can get this to work?

    Thanks in advance!

     

  5. Bump, I would also love to have a configurable shortcut key section. Particularly, at least, update metadata bound to a key combo. Is there a preset shortcut in Big Box to add a currently viewed selection to favorites? I didn't see an option to set a key binding for it, thought it might also be a good suggestion. I think you all are doing an amazing job with this software, by the way. Thank you for all the hard work and constant attention!

  6. This seems like the place for this question. A TeknoParrot  game requires elevated permission and I want to use a task schedule link to run the .exe, but what parameter should I use in the .lnk file to pass the romfile from LaunchBox? Thanks in advance.

  7. Most of my installation went smoothly. I'm having trouble with DS and 3DS. Both packs seems to stop around halfway, leaving me with missing bezels for half the games of each. I've tried downloading these packs multiple times over multiple days. I've tried downloading the .zip that was linked, but that file is truncated as well. Are there full sets for the DS and 3DS that I can download? If necessary, I'll write the configurations myself, but I hate having those two sets being incomplete. Also, if anybody knows a place to get PS2 bezels, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

     

     

  8. In this scenario, do we only delete the entries we don't want to keep? I'm confused as to whether the importer will remove the entries we don't want if they're installed. If we need to delete them manually, will it keep the metadata if we delete all? Sorry for the excessive questions, I'm in the same situation and really do not want to have to reinstall this 85k files. lol
