    You can go into the settings on launchbox and turn off the automatic downloads. So instill 13.8 and open it up and then immediately go and turn off automatic downloads. Atleast that's what I did. But my system always asked if I wanted to download. I've never had it just automatically do it.  I did all this through launchbox. Then once I was setup I started up bigbox. 

    You can turn off checking for updates on startup (same options screen as turning off automatic update downloads), and that will allow you to stay on 13.8 without being prompted or automatically updated.

  2. I'm sorry guys, but Microsoft (and other third party libraries) are making it near impossible to continue supporting Windows 7 (or 8, or 8.1) going forward. Eventually we have to update third party libraries to make sure that they don't have security issues, and sometimes it does break older versions of Windows, which is apparently what happened here. We updated to a newer version of Chromium (we didn't really have a choice on that one).

    Hello @Jason Carr, how are you? How have you been my friend?

    I have a doubt. Whenever a release was announced, we had time to send the translation, a final beta came out, where we could correct or change something and then you published the official one, correct?

    In version 13.9 this didn't happen and some translations were left out . We, translators, have been following this plan for years. Was it an exception or will it always be this way from now on?

    Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and the entire Launchbox team.

    Sorry guys, this one was a bit more rushed than usual because of the holidays. Our apologies. We will do our best going forward to give you more time before the release. Thanks as always!

    I have a license and the side menu even shows that I do (Licensed to <my name>), but every time I launch the app I get the Game Limit Reached error message.

    What version are you using @ArquebusX. This is not something we've ever heard of being an issue before. What folder are you using as your LaunchBox folder?

    Nice updates. For me the main pain point for this Android version is the emulator handling (the link to the Play Store version of Retroarch springs to mind since that version doesn't work on so many devices). For the sake of convenience it would be nice to grab the version of Retroarch you want from their site and check for updates for it as well. This might be an unrealistic ask, but it would save some end-user effort 😛 

    We are actually working on this. We'd like to get an auto-install RetroArch feature going (which would install the APK directly from the RetroArch site and skip Google Play).

    Yes, but the sentence will still be on 2 lines. Maybe i can fit on a single line, but my suggestion is to set the height dynamically. This could also happen on other language. So that's my question, do you fix the code or i shrink the sentence?

    Yes, eventually we can do that. We have a big long list we need to tackle first though.

  7. Hey all, the 13.8 release is out, primarily to address the reported issues in this thread (in addition to what we've received from the error reporting). Please let us know what issues are and are not fixed for you in the 13.8 release. Thanks!

    Songs.xml :

    If the XML is corrupted like that, then you'll likely have to restore from a backup in order to get the collection back up and running. Music Box Alpha creates backups in the Backups subfolder, so you can restore files from there.

    The MBA forums were very low-trafficked and we figured it was best to just take them down and not have to worry about their maintenance and such.

    Good day,

     

    I have to write it here, because the forum of Music Box Alpha no longer exists.

    I have the problem that this program does not boot anymore. The log for this:

     

     

    Debug 2023-10-07 02-21-25 PM.log 6.92 kB · 1 download

    This appears to be a data issue somehow. It looks like the Data folder is corrupt. I'm not sure how that would happen, but you might need to either figure out how to repair the Data folder, or just delete it and start over.

    Hi, i translated this sentence: "Please wait while metadata is refreshed from the LaunchBox Games Database..." but as you see, in French it takes longer and the box does not adjust not automatically in height. Do I reduce my translation or do you set the height?

    Same thing with: "Please wait while the next version of LaunchBox is downloaded..."

    Sorry for the late reply. Ideally we would change the dialog to fit bigger text, but we won't be able to do that for this release. So if there's a way to make the text fit, that would be best for now.

    that didnt work.  :(  even though the main files are in the android folder internal  memory, after reformatting my sd card i had tell launchbox what emulator to use for all systmes.  o well  :(

    Make sure that you're using the right folder in the settings. It could be defaulting to a folder on your internal storage and not the SD card.

    Regarding the Windows version update, I understand that there is only an interval.

    Your post doesn't answer my question.
    I don't understand why there is no answer.
    I am asking if a new staff member has been found.
    The Android Launchbox that I have already purchased has not received any stable updates.
    I don't know if I can trust that the Android version will continue to be developed.

    Yes, we have two people working on the next Android version. We have found a new Android developer. :)
