  1. Just curious - the computer in my arcade machine is not going to support Windows 11, so I would be interested to know if/when Launchbox updates will only be available in Windows 11 environments?
  2. Never mind...I found it. Tools --> Options --> Visuals --> Game Details ...and uncheck Show 3D model.
  3. ...but I don't seem to be able to do so. I have installed the Steamy theme (love it!). I went into Tools --> Options --> Media ...and removed all the checkmarks in the boxes for Box Front, Box Back and 3D Box in their respective Priorities (I did not move any, simply removed ALL the checkmarks), but I still see the boxes. At least, it's what I THINK are the 3D Boxes...attached is a picture of what I am trying to turn off / hide...I circled the image I want gone. What tiny detail am I missing?
  4. I left the settings for MOUSE 2 (the spinner) INC and DEC as LEFT and RIGHT for now, as I will learn what that is all about. Cameltry, right now, works a treat, though I have not fine-tuned the spinner settings as of yet. As is, it seems far less sensitive (as such, the game is more playable) than when I first got it working (with the INC and DEC settings incorrect, as above). Thanks for the tip!!
  5. What setting do you suggest?
  6. Actually, Mr Viking, you helped me solve it. I was initially running MAME from a command prompt in a different directory that Launchbox was looking. When I corrected that, I had to go back and change the MAME configuration from a command prompt in that proper directory, then run Launchbox, and it worked. So you got me there, indirectly, and I thank you very much!
  7. Nope, that wasn't it. Changed the directory to where I was running MAME from a command prompt, same issue.
  8. I hope this will do...no extra parameters. However, in taking this screenshot, I think I determined the issue. I might have been in the wrong directory. Testing that now.
  9. Thanks for the help there, but I have seen all of those pages and still getting nowhere. Windows 10 recognizes it as a mouse, I can make the pointer go left and right EVERYWHERE. And running MAME from the command prompt, the spinner works. It is only when launching a game through Launchbox that the spinner no longer works.
  10. I have been testing this new spinner (Ultimarc, naturally) with Cameltry, in MAME set 0.265. My mame.ini file is in the root of the MAME directory. If I run MAME directly from the command prompt, I can see that under Input Device Options - Trackball, Paddle, Dial and Mouse Device assignments ALL = mouse and under General Settings - Input Assignments (Player 1 Controls): Paddle Analog = Mouse 3 X Paddle Analog Inc = Mouse 3 X + Paddle Analog Dec = Mouse 3 X - ...I was able to set these by turning the spinner (after hitting ENTER to change the setting). In MAME.INI: mouse = 1, multimouse = 1 Cameltry WORKS under MAME running from a command prompt. In Launchbox (and in Windows 10), the spinner will send the pointer left and right (as it's obviously being used as a linear mouse), but does not work in the game. The configuration for Input Assignment for Player 1 simply says MOUSE, and I cannot change it to anything but random keypresses...spinning the spinner does not seem to register there. What am I missing? I have combed the forum for various suggestions that have worked for others, but this is perplexing.
