  1. Thanks Draven! All good input; nit-picking is a good thing. I do have some major GUI improvements (such as these) planned out. I'm already pushing the limits of basic Windows graphics, though, so at some point I'm going to need to start doing things with DirectX, so I can implement better animation and the like. So that is definitely on my to-do list, but I do have a number of other more technical things to tackle before I can get there.
  2. Hi death, I've been thinking about this one; probably the quickest way to get support for multi-disc games would be to allow you to use an emulator for the additional apps. That way you could right-click on the game and select "Play Disc 1" or "Play Disc 2". I'd just have to add a "Use Emulator" checkbox to the additional apps screen. How would that work? I can probably work that into the next version.
  3. I think maybe I need to come up with a list of popular emulators and pre-populate these settings. Obviously most users aren't likely going to know how to configure them all properly. I'll add that to my list.
  4. It looks like putting "-nogui -cdfile" into the command line parameters (without the quotes) does the trick.
  5. Alright; I managed to get remember filters into version 2.16 that I just put out. Hopefully I can expand on it with a "kid mode" feature in the future.
  6. Thanks bd00; that's a good idea. I had planned to implement that but for some reason I got sidetracked on it. I might be able to sneak it in to the new version that I plan to release tonight. Also, it's worth noting that I have a "kid mode" feature planned for development that would restrict games based on their ESRB Rating. I haven't started development on this yet though.
  7. Sorry for the delay here Liam. If you can, use your keyboard to go to the Options dialog. What do you have selected for your joystick/gamepad?
  8. Wow, looks awesome jtrain. That's a great idea. I'll look to see if I can implement some sort of collapse or nested option at some point here.
  9. Awesome, glad to hear it.
  10. Thanks, Martin, good idea. I added it to my list.
  11. Just to update this forum post, with dreams' (and others') help I believe I've fixed the issue, should hopefully be putting out a new release tonight.
  12. nmc, I think I've finally got this fixed; if you can, send me an email (just use feedback on the site) and I'll send you a test version so you can confirm that it works. I'll put out the new release tonight if we can get it confirmed. Thanks much for your help. Jason
  13. Thanks nmc, I've narrowed the issue down to the new DirectX controller input. Still haven't figured out why it's erroring for everyone else and not me, but at least I have a lead. Can you tell me if you have SharpDX.dll and SharpDX.DirectInput.dll files in your LaunchBox folder?
  14. Thanks, can you check your Windows Event Log to see if you have any errors in it that might be related? Go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer > Windows Logs > Application and take a look at the list. It's a bit complicated but I'd really appreciate if you could see if you could find anything; I'm at a loss why everyone is experiencing errors at this point.
  15. So I hear. Can you screenshot me or give me any more details? Don't understand what's going on at this point.
  16. Bah, you're not the only one. I don't understand yet what's going on; I haven't been able to get it to crash myself. Can you screenshot me or give me any kind of details that you have? For now, I've reverted the downloads on the site back to 2.14. To fix it for now, you can download the setup and install over top.
  17. Also, does it happen on a new installation? You can go download version 2.14 from the site and install it over top and things should work properly again.
  18. Bah, I've reverted the downloads back to 2.14. Can you send me screenshots of what's going on? I'm confused because it's not crashing for me.
  19. I've implemented the "cancel and keep your games" option in version 2.15.
  20. Hey dreams, I just put out version 2.15 with DirectX controller input. Let me know if Vjoy is working for you now.
  21. jtrain, FYI, I just put out version 2.15 and I've switched the controllers over to use DirectX instead. I would expect that the controller issues you were seeing should be fixed now. Let me know if they're not.
  22. OzzieMonkey, FYI, I just put out version 2.15 with that new Sort Title field.
  23. Thanks, dreams. At some point here I plan on replacing the joystick implementation with a DirectX version (instead of native Win32 joystick calls), which should resolve this and any related joystick issues. For now, disabling joystick input in the Options will at least allow you to keep using LaunchBox.
  24. Dreams, hit me up at jasondavidcarr@gmail.com so we can talk offline.
  25. Ah, yes. Makes sense. Hopefully I can get it into the next version.
