[Running LaunchBox and Big Box on Linux]

Here's another one using Windows only, just to use Launchbox. I don't plan on installing Windows 11, so when Windows 10 support ends, I'll definitely migrate to Linux. I hope there'll be a Linux version of Launchbox by then.

Thanks for the report.

Can you be more specific with regards to what system you are trying to import, and the exact steps you used to import?

Hi, I get a crash when I try to import a system. Specifically “System.NullReferenceException”. If more data is needed, please ask for it.

Thanks. Even easier. Create the standard system settings for widescreen games. Then you only have to configure the bezels individually for 4:3 games.

My version:

Transparent with borders

@JoeViking245

Done. Thanks for your help. I had “Aggressive Startup Window Hiding” enabled. I have disabled it and it works.

I will try the transparent bezels. I don't know how they are done though. Thanks again. ^ ^

Hello, I find it impossible to configure it for Duckstation. The image of the game is not displayed, it stays behind. I have tried, but I have not succeeded.

Changing the subject, will it be possible in the future to make it so that no Bezel is loaded in certain games? For widescreen ones, for example.

Check that you don't have DuckStation set to run in fullscreen. 

• The command line parameters (LaunchBox - Tools - Manage - Emulators...) should only have -nogui (and not contain -fullscreen). 
• Open the emulator and in Settings - General, make sure the checkbox "Start Fullscreen" is not checked.

In LaunchBox, Tools - BezelLauncher Setup, edit Sony Playstation - DuckStation and verify the box, per Suggested parameter checkbox(es), is checked.  (Hide Game Startup (g))  And none the of the other parameter checkboxes are checked.

I will give it a try. Thank you.

Hello. Thank you for your work!

I have problems with Duckstation. The games launch but stay hidden, they are not visible. Can anyone help me to configure it?

With BigPEmu for example it works perfect.

Thank you!
