  1. Amazing pack. I'm truly thankful for your hard work in cataloging all these documents and making them look good. Any plans to expand to 3.5e?
  2. Thanks @Jason Carr, I'm not sure that works if the platform has already been saved with a "scrape as". I've tried changing the field to nothing and back to the wanted platform as well as changing it to another platform and then back (hitting "okay" between all changes). The various fields don't fill in.
  3. Is there a way to manually trigger the download of platform details? For instance, let's say I manually create a platform called "Nintendo 64 (World)", can I manually trigger the download of all the Nintendo 64 info (processor, memory, etc.)?

    MEAGRE

    Thanks! I really like your theme!
  5. MEAGRE View File This Big Box theme is designed to show more of a game's images than usually found in a given theme. The name derives from my old MEAGRE interface. Currently, there are only three views, the system menu, a vertical wheel platform view, and the games text list. Please give any feedback you would like as I would love to improve on the theme over time. This was created using the Community Theme Creator.

  7. Yeah, zipped file's a good idea. I couldn't get the file to upload here so I ended up sending it to a Google drive. Here's the link. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q5zA1ofPPFNVeb_r2V9UhoPbkqYFHkhE/view?usp=sharing
  8. I know this won't be for everyone but I made this for myself and thought others might get a use out of it. This started as a project to fill in the missing box fronts for my PopCap games set but I ended up making fronts for all 71 games in the collection I have. Some turned out better than others and although they are not historically accurate, I like having all the games share a similar box style and conformity. There were some missing clear logos from the initial image downloads and the other set posted here so I'm uploading my set of those as well. Hopefully it helps someone out there.

  9. As I rebuild my Launchbox again I’m wondering what most people choose for the following. Feel free to suggest other options and questions for the various forks in the road you’ve encountered in your setups
  10. I found a fix. Thank you for the assistance. Yeah, I've played with second monitor backglass before but currently running this on a single monitor. On the AC/DC table anyway, I set the DMD F1 settings to external DMD. I then edited the ini file so stayontop is true..
  11. I might be missing something but I tested a couple of tables and they don't show the DMD. AC DC Premium for instance. It may be something in my Visual Pinball setup. The Table plays fine but no DMD?
  12. So here is one of my "Box - Front" directories in the first screenshot. The file names look right to me. That said, there is a folder called just "Front" that is empty, As a test, I copied by 10-Yard Fight "Box - Front" image to the "Front" folder (see second screenshot) and refreshed Launchbox. Sure enough, the box front showed up! Ok, so what is this "Front" folder and why is Launchbox looking there instead of the "Box - Front" directory? What did I miss?
  13. Tried both refreshing missing media and refreshing all images (one at a time). Unfortunately, neither addressed the issue, box fronts are still missing. I did download a new box front for a game and it is being retained so the missing box front issue does appear to be from an "event" rather than a static problem, if that helps.
  14. I don't think it's something being universally experienced but I can't determine what is causing it in my setup. My priority settings seem fine, as in this shot. https://i.imgur.com/ktOXcD4.jpg When I say the box front is missing, I mean from every game. As in this screenshot, the saved box front is simply gone from every game on every platform, https://i.imgur.com/KSKG5WU.jpg
  15. After updating to the latest beta, all of my box front images were removed. This is on every game on every platform. If I edit any given game, it simply knows nothing about the box front images that were previously saved. Any ideas? The other images (3D boxes, screenshots, etc) all remain but all box fronts have been forgotten. My "Box - Front" folders are all still populated with correct image files.
  16. A friend of mine in high school (Around 1988) in the Houston area had an Amiga. I knew it was a superior system in regards to graphics but everyone seemed to be adopting PCs at the time and allure of DOS was too strong for me, ended up convincing my parents to buy a 286 as our first computer. It's a small world. That friend went on to develop Questlord (for android and iOS). Another friend of ours went on to work at Ensemble Studios in Dallas and eventually became a producer on Age of Empires. He went on to found Robot Entertainment when MS folded Ensemble. Completely by coincidence, I also live in the Dallas area and "helped" in getting ExoDOS off the ground by giving eXo a platform to work with in the form of MEAGRE. To top it off, just a few weeks ago I was playtesting a game at Bethesda (same office as current id). The Video Game Museum is a definite must and really gives you a nostalgia overload. Here is a link to an album of my visit.
  17. Thanks! Deluge appears to be working through it.
  18. Thought I would ask here since people here are fairly knowledgeable. Every torrent I download from pleasuredome stalls and the tracker shows as not working? Torrents from other sites download and seed without issue but pleasuredome torrents all fail. I'm using qbTorrent specifically. I've found a couple of forum hits via google discussing similar issues but changing settings they recommend such as turning off cache don't seem to have an affect. Anyone have something similar happen or know a fix? It's not a big deal, I can wait until eXo uploads to other locations.
  19. Yeah, eXo, don't worry about uploading. Take care of yourself. Get well soon! But, you know, leave upload instructions for your relatives, just in case.
  20. I'm also getting this same error whenever I choose Scrape Movie. Running under Windows 10.
  21.

  22. What am I missing here? This is the first plug-in I've tried. I created a new platform and added a couple of movies to it. I've pointed the executable to the movie file itself and given it an appropriate name. I right mouse click on a movie and choose Scrape Movie and nothing happens. Refreshing does not help. Do I need to add more information details other than the title?
  23. If I understand the issue you are having, the "CD" is included in the eXodos game folder. You need to edit the conf file being used to load the CD as a drive letter in DOSBox. The conf file in the eXodos Full Throttle folder should have the right text at the bottom of the file.
  24. Ok, here are the three video files I recorded. Take your time and thanks for doing this! Infocom.mp4 MacOS.mp4 Win31.mp4
