  1. No, it seems like a limitation with playing some games offline. Some launchers let you and others don't. It's too bad, but I eventually gave up on games and launchers that can't be played offline. I've considered putting my cab online but I'm nervous that one windows update will break something, not worth it.
  2. I've just stumbled upon this while trying to overcome the exact same issue. I'm using BB as shell and have some games in the microsoft store that need explorer.exe running for them to launch it seems. I've tried numerous variations of this script but the problem for me is I can get the game to start properly, but something isn't working when explorer.exe closes. The game continues to play fine, but when I exit the game I've got a white screen and nothing else. I can't even get the task manager to pop up. If I Alt-Tab I can alternate between the game tab and the task manager but nothing actually happens and the blank white screen persists. If you've got any other workarounds on how to accomplish this let me know, thanks!
  3. Can't figure out a good way to do this, or if it's even possible. When online I've got not problems running my Epic Games through BigBox or Launchbox, but since I run my system offline I get these additional popups that become annoying on an arcade cabinet. I can get to the game offline by clicking through the popups, but it's not easy in BigBox with the mouse hidden. Steam games work fine offline, no additional popups, and if there are I've been able to find workarounds. But with Epic I'm not sure how to get rid of these and bypass directly to the game:
  4. Did you ever get this sorted out? I just installed the game and I get no response from any source for the gas button, regardless of Xinput or Dinput settings in the TP interface. If I use Dinput I can get into the test menu but nothing is registering as a control input to calibrate. I've tried Xbox controllers too with Xinput and nothing. Not using any ahk script, just the control binding in the TP setup.
  5. Can this be done with individual games that are launched from BigBox? Not sure how BigBox hides the mouse exactly, but it seems like there's got to be a way to temporarily allow the mouse cursor to be visible for certain games. I definitely don't want it to display for the rest of my games though, just a few for PC windows. Thanks!
  6. Sorry for the late reply, been busy with work lately. As far as demulshooter goes it needs to have a target application and rom specified since it's usually run as a command line program. Just running the app without any arguments specified will likely not do anything at all. Most of the games that need demulshooter I will launch using an ahk because it seems a lot cleaner. Here's an example of my Sega Model 2 ahk for House of the Dead. I did some additional testing with the Transformers and Rambo games and they are working fine just using the border button, nothing extra needed. However, for some reason it's the Player 2 crosshairs that don't align properly, so I just created a separate lightgun.exe with the calibration adjustments for that game. Let me know if that helps at all, thanks for trying to get that service menu working! (It appears to not exist)
  7. Ah, OK I thought you ran demulshooter from the same ahk script as the game. What are the command line parameters you have for launching demulshooter so it hooks onto Rambo?
  8. I was just looking up the demulshooter setup scripts and saw this, that teknoparrot intergrates it's own raw input handling and demulshooter inputs are deprecated. Can you share your script that you are using for it? I appreciate it
  9. OK thanks, I still haven't linked demulshooter to this yet but I'll do it soon and see what happens.
  10. OK I've got that and makes sense, but it's the "internal upscaling " that you need to adjust? I'm just confused as to why he didn't need to change it on that video, and maybe used a higher resolution setting elsewhere, like in the main settings -> video section.
  11. So I followed ERAPrime's setup and out of the box it didn't look anything like his video. I have to turn the internal resolution upscale to 4x for it to look similar. Is there some other way you are supposed to improve the resolution to get that look?
  12. Cool thanks, I haven't tried the parallel core yet because I thought the mupen was more recent and improved. I'll give it a try and see, thanks!
  13. I've looked through some older posts and found some info that may not necessarily be current anymore for optimal settings. I'm using the Mupen64Plus-Next core with parallel set to both plugins. Vulcan video driver and all shaders and overlays off, using core provided resolution with 2x internal upscaling. I'm noticing stuttering (and almost like duplicate frames) in some games, like Sarge's Army men. I've got a new Ryzen 5 cpu with an Nvidia RTX 3060 gpu. Any suggestions on changes, or a different setting that's other than the default?
  14. Yeah I was trying to get into the in-game service menu for calibration. I'll see if Demulshooter helps since I'm not having any luck finding that menu. Using the resolution you mentioned too. Let me know what you find, thanks man!
