Had this problem again and realized I never updated my post! SHAME This happens because there are two themes using the same dll. In this case it is the Unified Refried and Kido themes both using the Unbroken.LaunchBox.Plugins.PrioritizedPathSelector.dll. To solve this issue and continue using both themes, you must move the platform view that you want in to one or the other theme folders. An example, I want to use the Unified Refried theme for the platform view but want to use the Kido theme for the platform NEC PC-9801. When setting the theme for NEC PC-9801 I get an error about the Unbroken.LaunchBox.Plugins.PrioritizedPathSelector.dll. You must go to Launchbox/Themes/Kids Theme/Views/WheelGamesVIew, and copy the NEC PC-9801.xaml in to the same path but for the Unified Refried theme (Launchbox/Themes/Kids Theme/Views/WheelGamesVIew). Then set the theme for NEC PC-9801 to Unified Refried and you should be good to go.

I just got this to work. The first folder is your path to the bios files. After the -CD arg you need to put %romfile% so launchbox fills in the path to the rom. The wiki calls the bios files the roms. This is from the wiki main_cui ROM_FILE_PATH -CD CD_IMAGE_FILE -FD0 FD0_IMAGE_FILE If you open the gui there is a field for the path to the roms (bios) and under the field are the bios filenames it is looking for.

Apparently there is a paid for emulator that can do some DVC. If anyone really wants to see how it works... https://www.cdiemu.org/downloads/

I cant say what version I only know that after I added GZDOOm as an emulator it started popping all the time. I did just figure a workaround that worked for me though. I changed the associated platform for GZDOOM to be some random platform and the option is now blank when importing from the tools>import. Not perfect but it works.

Im sorry to bring this back but I am still having this issue. I sent an email directly to support under help and support link. The issue persists in to 13.19. I did find out that a fresh install did not have this issue. I slowly started migrating files from the original install to the fresh install and found out it was the platform .dat files causing the issue. I was able to see that the problem would persist when some .dat files were present and not others. Problem is I have a lot of them so I opted to just add all titles again. Which took a while... After everything was back I was able to add the pc games again no issue, but the problem has now returned. If there is any additional help I can get on this it would be appreciated. Thank you.

This is great if you are only trying to add one game via drag and drop. If you want to add multiple games at once, drag and drop is slow. Previously, "importing rom" was the way to go. Yes it says ROM, but like previously mentioned when adding 100pc games at once drag and drop is just not the way to go.

I am having this issue as well. I confirmed that automatic imports are on. First I tried to add one game and create the platform with an assigned game folder. LB does not auto import. Confirmed all games are installed to Vita3k, updated Vita3k. Deleted emulator from LB and readded. Nothing changes. Using any kind of scan/import method locks up LB due to it just scanning every file in the vita rom folder. Includes Tools>Scan, Import>rom files, and drag and drop, Please diregard. Restarting the PC and just letting LB sit for a few minutes got this working.

Im getting a blocked dll error on the Kido Theme. When I go to properties on the stated dll file the option to unblock it is not present. I have tried to restart pc, disabled antivirus, deleting and redownloading the theme, and using powershell to unblock both the individual file as well as the entire folder of dlls. Any suggestions would be great.

Its been a few days, This did not resolve the issue. I did import a full rom set using the same method and had no issue so it makes me think it's only with Windows platform. Anyway, I do want to get this resolved, but since I can drag and drop still the issue isn't as big as it was in the begining. If you have any additional troubleshooting for me I'd be happy to do it. Thanks!

Hello again Faeran and thank you as always taking the time to respond, I have updated to 13.17 and tried to add a game today using import, and the same issue occurs. Using the drag and drop method works fine. Essentially no change with the version update.

Ok sounds good. I was having this problem for weeks, it's just gotten to the point where I needed to do something and I was lost. When the update comes out I will test again and reach out if the problem persists.

Hi Faeran, First thanks for following up on this. I do really appreciate it! I have updated to the latest beta, 13.17-beta-5 I attempted to add Mechwarrior 5 Clans using the import method after update and again the "infinite save" occurred. I closed and re opened, and then tried drag and drop which worked no problem. I've attached both log files labeled as such and again the one that I attempted import using the tool>import contains the index error. If you'd like you can also reach me on discord or email, if it makes things easier. Please let me know anything I can do to help on this. Thanks!
