I did these yesterday.

I'm trying to run a game from LB using Steam all other games from this section work ok except this one. It runs no problem from Steam It runs fine if I copy the Steam ID link in the Rom launching part in LB & paste it into google it runs the game. If I run it from LB I get the above pop up. Any ideas why it keeps just popping up with this error? All other steam games launch fine. Thanks

Hi guys I have BB looking the way I want across everything but I'm using different themes for each bit e.g. Colorful for Platforms & Default for games view. Is there a way to save this setup as a new theme so I don't screw it up? Or so I can edit it as my own theme? At the mo I'm guessing if I swap themes then want to go back I'll have to set it all up again. & if I want to edit say the games view it'll edit the files in the Default theme (as that's what I'm using for this part) this will get confusing in the long run. So I want to make my own theme making all the files/folders setup etc all in one new theme & that way 1. I have a backup & 2. I can edit parts to make it more to the way I like but the edited files are in my theme not across multiple themes & folders. Hope that make sense. Thanks

I've read a few posts on this issue but I've not worked it out yet. If I load a game in Yuzu from Launchbox then use the LB Pause menu then exit Yuzu minimizes then closes fine. If I load a game in Yuzu from BigBox then use the BB Pause menu Yuzu minimizes & closes but I'm stuck in BB with no control. Like I'm on another window. After this I have to use the mouse to click on BB & then the control comes back to the controller. Any help? Seems weird it works fine in LB. Thanks

@Light SockCan you explain this a bit more I'm having the same issue. Although it works all fine in LB, in BB if I use the pause menu and exit the Yuzu emu is set to window mode and hidden behind BB. If I use the pause menu again it closes it & BB continues to run with the controller. So you have no exit keys in the Yuzu emulator where it has exit? Where did you add Ctrl + Q as Exit Yuzu hotkey? I'm confused because my exit hotkey was already set to Ctrl + Q??? Like below Thanks for the help.

Hope you don't mind @viking I thought it would be nice to add a reflection on the ground where the light hits it. It's subtle but I think looks nice. Colorful_HD_Category Playlist.mp4 Colorful_HD_Category Collections.mp4 Colorful_HD_Category Favorite.mp4

Last ones. Just a fan made for the UK guys who loved the old 500 advert. I'll stick these in my Launchbox & have a feel how the background colours work etc. I'll repost them all or if you want specific colours now's the time to say @viking. When I'm happy I'll post all the vids HD, 4k H264, 4k H265. Commodore Amiga 500 Sunshine_HD.mp4 Commodore Amiga 500 OldSkool Sunshine_HD.mp4

Category Collections_HD.mp4 Category Computers Retro_HD.mp4 Category Collections Category Computers Retro Just because Launchbox adds all Steam, Epic etc games into the same folder so I split Amiga C16 etc into Computers Retro to keep it all separate.

I'm not sure if all these are in the Theme, like the BBC Micro I've not seen so it could already have a colour. I've just got to do the Vid for Collections & Retro Computers & that'll prob be it until I'm on the next part lol. When they're all locked down & the colours are all ok I'll post up the 4k versions & send you the Zip files if you want. Thanks for the help @viking

Let me know & I'll change the background colours to what you want including the Mega CD above this. @viking

Ok I tried the on screen controls which worked with 2 button presses. I then went through all config start ups for the 8bitdo zero 2 Switch/D/X/Keyboard but no luck. I looked through some posts and found this which worked!!! I found it, “Input Block Timeout” under Latency in the settings menu. I set this to the max setting and it fixed the issue. So in RA do the above and set it to 4 and it fixed the problem. Hope this helps others if needed. thanks

You think? Even when the game actually plays correctly with the right buttons? I thought it might have been a setting that is delaying a 2 button press or something. I’ll try my other pad and see if that works then remap the Zero I guess. Pretty frustrating. I also thought you used to be able to change character on TMNT2p Arcade when you died but it’s been so long. thanks for the help mate.

Hi guys I'm just setting up my controls using an 8BitDo Zero 2 the small pad for my daughter. This all seems to be working fine but when I tested TMNT the Arcade version using Retroarch MAME 2003 Plus the Special attacks arn't working. Jump works, attack works but push both buttons & I get a normal attack not the mini jump with a big hit. Do I need to change something in Retroarch to get this to work? I tried this on both 2 player versions & 4 player but got the same result. Thanks

Ok keep updating. if you deleted all the arcade roms then re imported, I used not a full set option, and it still doesn’t work? Then yes definitely check which rom you have compared to what LB is trying to load in the metadata. Maybe find a new romset? I know capcom stuff has been updated in MAME 2003 plus, as I needed to update my whole set using a newer set and those work now. Also make sure your setting the emulator setting to MAME 2003 plus or what ever you’re using.

Seems like the new update fixes all this for me so far.

Find one that isn't working in Launchbox MAME but is working in RetroArch - find it in Launchbox - Select the game & look at the list, where it says edit meta data click that. In the meta data it will show you the .zip it's trying to run. So for me that says powb.zip (which I don't have & shouldn't be there). Then check if you have this (rom in the meta data) rom in your Mame roms folder you imported. If you don't have that rom then that's why you get the black screen. To fix it point the meta data rom .zip to one you do have & it should work. Just writing this and Android Launchbox has just been updated so hopefully this fixes all this!!!

I have got it working, the Scan & add Arcade rom bit a few times but I needed to re scan it and lost it. I've tried many ways to add games in but nothing has stuck. I only need to add MAME & that's it everything else is working fine that I know of. Now the loading of MAME rom's is screwed up. I'm not sure if they know or it's being worked on but Launchbox is assigning roms I don't have to load. So when you want to load POW I have roms pow.zip & powj.zip but Launchbox is setting powb.zip as the rom to load which obviously results in a black screen. I've checked other roms/games like Out Zone and it's the same, it's setting the wrong default rom. In retroarch you just select the correct rom you have and it'll work fine as you have that rom! I've got the same rom set working fine on other devices not using Launchbox. So I'm hoping I haven't wasted my money & just waiting for an update soon. I posted here

I think you have the same problem as me. I don't think this is something we have done wrong. Pick a rom that doesn't work then look at the metadata & see what rom name Launchbox is looking for. I found it was looking for a rom name I didn't even have which is why the ones you pick work in Retroarch because the Launchbox is looking for a rom name you don't have in your folder & you're selecting one you do. e.g. I have pow.zip and powj.zip nothing else but Launchbox is looking for powb.zip for some reason in the metadata.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Retroarch 64bit sideloaded using MAME 2003 Plus Core (internal storage) Full unmerged MAME 2003 Plus Referenced Set (on SD card) Launchbox Full license all other systems working fine in Retroarch Problem 1 I have to import these games multiple times to get Launchbox to create an xml that gets saved. I've managed once using the normal import games- Point to SD card and Rom Set - platform Arcade This all scans in at various speeds then restarts Launchbox for me to have no Arcade system there. As I said I have managed to get this to work once but I changed nothing, Problem 2 I have 3 Full unmerged Sets my own set I made, a MAME Plus 2003 full referenced Set 2018, a MAME Plus 2003 full referenced Set 2021 Each time I've scanned these sets in a lot of the games don't work, some do work but if I then open them directly in Retroarch, MAME 2003Plus core, they all work fine. Then I started to see Launchbox is assigning the wrong Rom name e.g I have roms pow.zip & powj.zip Launchbox is looking for powb.zip in the metadata which isn't even in any of the full sets?? I've seen this on the roms I've tried too like OutZone. If I open my rom set directly from Retroarch 64bit sideloaded all seem to work fine. So I think Launchbox is scanning & assigning the wrong rom names that don't exist when importing the roms for MAME. It doesn't matter if I import using North America or Europe. It could be problem 1 causing this but as I said I don't have the roms Launchbox is trying to find so they shouldn't even be on the alternate version list any for each game. Is this a known bug? I've seen others saying the same problem but haven't checked what rom Launchbox is pointing too. When is an new android Launchbox coming & are these being addressed? Should I list this bug somewhere? Thanks
