Yeah, indeed, that would be pretty neat. Added to my ideas list. ;)

Hahahaha, welcome OldRetard, sir. ;) So, hmm. How did you run through the installer wizard? Did you mount the ISO in Windows first? Or did you directly refer to the ISO file itself in the wizard? The proper way to do it would be to choose "No, I have the installation files or media", then "inside a CD image ISO", then browse for your ISO file, select the destination folder, choose "Yes, automatically mount the CD", and "Yes, copy to the destination folder" and then proceed with the install. Let me know if that's what you already did or if that fixes it for you.

Ugh, that sucks, John. Congrats on your Fusion though. I'm gonna work on a debug version here in a few minutes that I'll upload here and everyone can try. It should be up in less than an hour.

On it like Donkey Kong. ;)

Hehehehe, no problem.

Sure, yup. Steam simply prompts you to install the game if you don't have it installed, when you try and start it through LaunchBox. Still, I don't see any issue with re-enabling the old importer. I'd just put a little tiny link on the wizard to take you there if you'd prefer (though I don't see putting any more work into it, so it won't support any of the new features).

Hahahaha, it's actually *only* 1,000. ;) https://www.launchbox-app.com/forum/rankinfo Nobody's a 64-bit Supercomputer yet at 500...

Lol. I feel...evil.

I should see if I can link out to this. Once I get the sidebar customized, should add a bunch of optional features to include, like a link here.

Yes, just hasn't been priority. I should be adding "platform management" soon (probably for the next version), so it makes sense to include it as part of that feature set. The new platform management will also include the much-requested platform backgrounds.

Sure, I changed it to allow uploading batch files, so that might be the best approach going forward.

Thanks, bd. I'm just reminded of #1. #2 is definitely planned. #3 is changeable via the Theme's Foreground color.

Hi bd, okay, I'll bring the old importer back as well (didn't realize there were compelling reasons to keep it around). Hopefully I can have a beta out soon.

That's exactly what I don't understand. And why would it work fine for me, but not for you guys? That's why I need your help troubleshooting it.

Let's try and work through this one guys, try and figure it out. I'm still getting plenty of results on my machines, so I don't understand what the problem is. If anyone is open to using join.me to have a screen sharing session so I can try and see what's going on, that'd be great. Let me know. Just to clear some things up, LaunchBox checks two different spots for games. It looks in your Start menu for games, basically by comparing all of your Start menu shortcuts against the LocalDB to try and find games. Then it looks in what is called the Windows Games Explorer using the registry; and just assumes that everything found in there is an actual game. It also checks to make sure files exist and such, of course. We could be running into permissions issues, I suppose, but I would have expected that to error out instead of just not return anything. I think I'll probably put out a debug version that spits out a bunch of debug messages to help troubleshoot this.

Hippyshake said Cool links, Stimpy! That blog might be cool, too, if it had a lot more material. Lol.

Sure, makes sense Martin. We might be able to kill two birds with one stone once we add proper video support to games.

So weird. I'm still getting results. I've heard this several times though, so it's obviously a real issue. New installs for me give me pretty much everything. So, hrm. I might have to put out a debug version or something.

Hi shinra, sure, I'll add this to my list.

Sure, I have *BIG* intentions for LaunchBox, way past just games. That said, we have a very long ways to go with games before I think it'd be wise to move on to other types of media. And one thing's for sure, when we go to other types of media, it needs to be a good solution, and a clean interface.

Nice, looks great. :)

Hi advocate, love to see the image, but unfortunately it's protected behind your Microsoft account, so we can't see it. You should be able to post an image right here on the forums, let me know if you have any issues.

Hi Faceless, you're right, that's not hard to do. Hopefully I can enable that option for the next version. :)

Welcome Wattoo, thanks scree for clearing that up. :)

Hmm, okay, thanks guys. And welcome portachking. :) Keep in mind that it won't show duplicates in the list, unless you check the force duplicates box. So if you already have a game in your collection, it simply won't show up in the list. Could that be the issue? Otherwise, I'll have to dive in and keep asking questions until we can figure out the problem. It will never be 100% perfect, so a game here or there that it doesn't find we may just have to deal with. But if it's not finding any games at all, obviously there's a problem I need to fix. Try checking that "force import duplicates" box and let me know if you get any listed that way. Thanks guys. :)
