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.

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.

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  

Orion-128 Custom 2D Front Covers View File A set of custom 2D front covers for the Orion-128's 65 cassette games. 3D custom boxes to follow. 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. Meow! Submitter spycat Submitted 05/31/2022 Category Orion-128  

To prevent game overviews from showing on the LaunchBox Game Details sidebar go to Tools>Options>Game Details and clear the Notes checkbox. To do the same in BigBox go to Options>Game Details and clear the Show Notes checkbox. I don't have any interest in the Related Games (similar, recommended and ports) feature. While it's in my LaunchBox options I see no mention of it on either my LaunchBox Game Details sidebar or in my BigBox. If it's present for you then I have no idea on how to remove it.

I'm not certain about this but I believe that the display name that you set in your LaunchBox forums account also applies to your games database account and you can't have two separate ones.

I'm on LaunchBox 12.9 official and have found no issues with setting custom command-line parameters. Once entered they remain until you decide to cancel them.

The Unified Refried theme (version 2.0.1) is available for download from within BigBox. However the file hosted on the LaunchBox forums Downloads contains 5 extra zips that the theme itself can avail of.
