Old Default theme - Another bug with the new release
spycat replied to drw4013's topic in Troubleshooting
I haven't come across any issues with my Old Default theme's behaviour whenever I update the BigBox official build. I have the necessary options for my Old Default theme set via the Theme Specific Options rather than depend completely on the global settings so maybe that's why I never see any oddities in my theme when I update BigBox. Who knows? -
Old Default theme - Another bug with the new release
spycat replied to drw4013's topic in Troubleshooting
I use the Old Default theme in BigBox 12.15 with no issues that I can see. In your theme specific settings for that theme have you tried a Platforms List view using wheels 1, 2 or 4, as 3 doesn't display the platform details. I use a different platforms look, but I can get the details to overlay by changing my wheel from 3 to say 1. See pic. -
Here are 2 more images for the Neo Geo CDZ and Neo Geo CD (front loading) variants. Oops! Must have misread and thought you were after the CD console. Heheh! NeoGeoCD.zip

Welcome @Flynner and wishing you the very best in your new position. Good to hear that the database will be on your list!

My LaunchBox refreshes selected images when F5 is used. Try clicking the flip icon above the box image.

Those 4 files are part of the game rom and are bad dumps. thoop.zip was last updated in Oct 2020, so we'll have to wait for a new dump with all files ok.

Version 1.0.1

These 176 custom covers are a sort of hybrid, with an MVS flyer look and some basic AES elements (player count and genre colour) thrown in. The official MVS games as well as a number of bootlegs, conversions (from CD and AES), protos, homebrews, non-releases and so on are included. Meow!- 1 review

3D boxes flip from front to front, won't flip to back image
spycat replied to NicoDirkfan's topic in Troubleshooting
If you want to avail of a work-around for 3D Box flipping you will need to re-assign their fields in LaunchBox. Currently there are six flippable fields: Advertisement Flyer Front / Advertisement Flyer Back Box Front / Box Back Box Front Reconstructed/ Box Back Reconstructed Cart Front / Cart Back Fanart Box Front / Fanart Box Back Fanart Cart Front / Fanart Cart Back You may (or may not) need to reorder your LaunchBox media priorities and also change (or not change) your BigBox Game Image Type view depending on your choice of new fields for your 3D images. -

Ctrl+Shift+V hides games that are missing videos. You can revert by menu navigating View > Hide Games > Missing Videos. Also, as the key combo is a toggle, you can just use it to undo the previous action.

Latest update adds unwanted box on platform screen...
spycat replied to NicoDirkfan's topic in Noobs
As far as I know you can't reposition the Platform Banner Images from within the BigBox settings. You should be able to do it by editing the theme itself. Perhaps it's the PlatformMarqueeView xaml file but don't take this as gospel and do make a backup copy of your theme before experimenting! I'd suggest waiting for someone with the knowhow to chime in here. -

In your BigBox settings screen go to Options, Images and clear the Show Platform Banner Images tickbox. -
This is most interesting indeed. I must study this when I've got some time to hand. I use the Bad Old Monkey theme myself. I use Additional Apps to pop up Arcade Italia (and Progetto Emma when it's not in maintenance!) game information web pages for my arcade and other games. A bit tedious to set up but practical for me with my very small LaunchBox set of 807 games (arcade and other systems).

You're welcome. I use 2 devices, i8244.zip and voice.zip and my parameters are odyssey2 -cart1 voice -cart2 This provides voice synthesis in supported games such as KCs Krazy Chase.
-
It looks like you may be missing the device i8244.zip which contains the file charset_i8244.bin That device should come with a full MAME romset.

I think that you can also have BigBox per-theme custom ones in LaunchBox\Themes\"theme name"\Images\Platforms\Banner folder. Custom platform banner images here will automatically override the existing platform banner images when the theme is in use.

Orion-128 Custom 3D Boxes View File A set of custom 3D boxes for the Orion-128's 65 cassette games. Despite extensive browsing I failed to source a single piece of boxart for this system so I went down the adapt or grow your own route. The games themselves were a mix of native homebrews, Specialist ports and (mainly Spectrum) bootlegs. Two styles are included: cased and plain (see both Xonix images above). Thanks once again to @edgemundo for kindly sharing his tape template which was reworked for the Norelco case effect. Submitter spycat Submitted 05/31/2022 Category Game Box Art
