Just came across this site about game simulation of old handheld game the site explains it better the site is called Madrigal's Simulators link below. To add the simulation games download zip, extract to anywhere. To add simulated games make a platform in LaunchBox call it Handheld or to whatever you want and then add the individual exe for each game which is in the game folder of the zip you extract. Control button on keyboard is for fire or jump the up down left right keys on keyboard are for movement. you have to click on start button on simulator to start game and on some to click on select either game a or b youll get the hang of it pretty quickly. Njoy. http://www.madrigaldesign.it/sim/index.php

@Jason thanks am running both versions at different locations main LaunchBox/BigBox for games in my documents and the version i use for media i have/run from a seperate drive as there is no slowdown or speed loss and works extremly well but like to keep that version updated one back from main version. Apart from that have not found any bugs in beta's or updated versions as of late.

@DOS76 if that was the case then surely i shouldnt be able to open up version 5.2 through present LaunchBox/Bigbox which i still am able to do, as this is a very handy feature to have in LaunchBox/BigBox it is one i dont want to be done away with and im sure people who have large library's and use LaunchBox/BigBox in their arcade cab which i will be building after im done finally with ripping my movies etc dont want to lose.

@Jason sorry havnt been on in awhile been busy ripping my and daughters dvd's making covers for them etc takes hour plus per movie just to rip lol. Can no longer update 2nd version of LaunchBox/BigBox pass version 5.2 if i want to launch that 2nd version through present LaunchBox BigBox. This has happened ever since version 5.3. If i have shortcut for a 2nd version the one i use for launching films music it must be version 5.2 or before because if i update that version and then try and launch it through the Present Version all that happens is LaunchBox dissappears for a few seconds then opens back up minimized and if i try and launch through BigBox all that happens is the animation for the information for previous version just reloads its transition ie vertical flip etc. Hope im explaining it so you can understand. i.e.:- if i launch my media version LaunchBox/BigBox through present LaunchBox/Big box it will work if its version 5.2 or before. but if i up date my media version LaunchBox/BigBox to version 5.3, 5.4 or 5.5 it will no longer work through present LaunchBox/BigBox. this has happened ever since version 5.3 up to the present version.

@DOS76 yes sound working can be distorted though but sound none the less. Another way to have seperate version of demul for the Gaelco games copy latest demul emulator folder and paste will be demul07a_230915 copy change the folder name from demul07a_230915 copy to say demul gaelco and then set up the games with the dx11 plugin.

@Mathair yes am using LaunchBox version 5.2 for movies i just add the movies no emulators so xml structure the same i dont know about imbd files tried checking online but was a minefield as could not understand codeing.

@DOS76 couldnt get any roms working kept getting a missing epr so i extracted the roms and did a seperate bat for them C:\Users\PC\Documents\LaunchBox\Emulators\demul07a_230915\demul.exe -run=hikaru -rom=sgnascar there all working make sure the path to your emulator is right and the right demul exe see version in bat dont set an emulator just point to bat and crate individual bat,s dont use a script to create them, and yes wont go fullscreen you have to go alt+enter for fullscreen. As for dreamcast games i use nullDC 1.04 r150 SM-A Fixes by masterchan777 it works better than demul except wont play wince games.

@DOS76 if you dont set demul as default emulator you wont have an ahk i think, well mine doesnt as i havnt set demul or latest demul as default emulator and there is no ahk in the emulators autohotkey

@shock66 think this is the one http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/genesis/fusion.html

Ahh poor Mario late again lol very good in a weird way lol

Welcome to LaunchBox @bjwest mainly in the Emulation thread for help on emulation or Troubleshooting thread if related to LaunchBox/Bigbox just check forum first see if what you are looking for has been already answered, if not post away people are alwayswilling to help out.

@DOS76 here is link to russian site the devs of demul if you ask there they are very good at replying so ive heard and possibly will help you in setting up steering wheel http://forum.emu-russia.net/viewforum.php?f=25

@DOS76 im not sure there are posts where people have set up steering wheels and guns that i came across but dont know the links to them

@DOS76 thats great. If in time you set up newer versions of demul with emulator and command line just a little hint when setting path to roms just point demul to the build where you have the roms and bios's ie a previous version so you dont have to move your roms/bios from where they are

@DOS76 ah i see about the roms. No no problems with latest version i just tried it out and it works for me but i am launching by emulator with the command line.

@DOS76 DOS76 said DEmul x86 v0.7 Alpha BUILD 230915 This was listed as the current build so I grabbed it. Alt + F4 definitely works. These are the .bats I'm using @echo off SET STRING=%1 SET STRING=%STRING:.zip=% SET STRING=%STRING:J:\Emulation\Naomi\ROMs\=% echo %STRING% start demul.exe -run=atomiswave -rom=%STRING% Should the line SET STRING=%STRING:J:\Emulation\Naomi\ROMs\=% not be SET STRING=%STRING:J:\Emulation\Atomiswave\ROMs\=%

@DOS76 yes thats the latest build

@DOS76 the .bat still works. here is an example of my bat for dolphin blue C:\Users\PC\Documents\LaunchBox\Emulators\demul07a\demul.exe -run=awave -rom=dolphin It must be awave for Atomiswave games for version 0.7a, if using version 057 substitute awave for atomiswave. Not sure about the closing down but with the bat Alt+F4 works for version 0.7a. link for demul newest version http://demul.emulation64.com/ as i see there is an even newer version out now.

@shock66 Im using Fusion 3.64 and dont have any problems with it in LaunchBox/BigBox my settings are under Video Tab: Window Size 960x720 Under Fullscreen to my monitor settings 1280x1024 and rest see image Try those settings and see if they work for you.

@mathflair is there any way you could adopt this tool say for movies if one is running a previous version of Launchbox/BigBox for that purpose scraping from say imbd as that would be a great option as well. Say movie synopsis info. Date etc.

@DOS76 if you download the latest demul wip 0.7a version 31**** there is no need for bat files for launching Atomiswave or Naomi roms and the emulator exits with Alt+F4 but you need to put into default line parameter the name of game see below screenshot its awave for Atomiswave and naomi for Naomi

@Jason latest beta running fine there was some lag in previous beta while schrolling through platforms and games in BigBox but this beta seems to have sorted that out, however when changing platforms in LaunchBox it still doesnt revert to either whatever custom background or default Launchbox background instead staying on last clicked on game fanart still.

I use an ahk script to run game for Sega System 32 using Modeler 0.9.3a emulator as its the only waqy i could get them to run. here is an example of an ahk script Run C:\Users\PC\Documents\LaunchBox\Emulators\Sega System 32\Modeler.exe WinWait, Modeler 0.9.3a, IfWinNotActive, Modeler 0.9.3a, , WinActivate, Modeler 0.9.3a, WinWaitActive, Modeler 0.9.3a, MouseClick, left, 425, 151 MouseClick, left, 425, 151 MouseClick, left, 425, 151 MouseClick, left, 425, 151 MouseClick, left, 425, 151 MouseClick, left, 425, 151 MouseClick, left, 425, 151 MouseClick, left, 425, 151 MouseClick, left, 425, 151 MouseClick, left, 58, 142 MouseClick, left, 348, 190 I have tried to get this emulator to run in full screen when it opens but failed, i can get it to go fullscreen with alt+enter but would rather have it automatically go fullscreen when it launches the game. Does any one know how i can do this, have tried winwait winactivate send with the alt+enter command in the script but it doesnt work with this emulator, is there any way through LaunchBox this could be achieved ie run after game launches any help would be appreciated or if anyone knows a better way of launching sega system 32 games please advise thanks.

Iv read that post but it doesnt give any proper explanation at all. See this post http://www.emutalk.net/threads/49077-reading-a-bin-cd?highlight=bin+cue as you can see from it bin cue files will not boot in null dc or in demul either an i could never get a dreamcast bin cue file to run in either demul or null dc except unless they were atomiswave or naomi games. You will have to ask garbanzo how he got them to work as the majority of people tend to stick to cdi for dreamcast.

Have you never heard of Milli Vanilli lol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milli_Vanilli
