Check EmuCR they have the latest git's for a lot of emulators many of them the not ready for prime time (360, PS2 3DS XBOX) but they have some others also. I went back 5 pages which only took me to the 16th without seeing any Demul versions but that doesn't mean they aren't on there. Also I found this interesting sounding controller app that gives xinput signals to dinput devices. I haven't opened it yet but it sounded interesting.

You should be able to add any file type to LaunchBox

I like Beamrider that's my go to 5200 game.

I think today was the first time I ever opened Moon Patrol

In MAMEUI I went to my directory and added a second location pointing to my Atari 5200 ROMs then I went into LaunchBox and under MAME I added Atari 5200 as an associated platform then added a5200 -cart -skip_gameinfo -now and I have it up and running. To do this without creating a 2nd directory path just make a folder in your ROMs folder and name it a5200 then place your 5200 games there.

The crazy part is that they list 5200 as 100% I think in MAME but I can't see how if you can't use all the buttons in some of the games sounds like an issue to me.

no not if they are the update packs you are supposed to add them using ClearMAMEPro which will add the files in the correct places Critical Cid has a lengthy tutorial that he did about it here on the forums it will be very helpful. I know in MAMEUI you can set multiple paths so I'm not sure which version of MAME you are using but I believe that is possible in MAME also.

No good in Moon Patrol I'm guessing the second button should allow to jump over that stupid crater that wipes you out very annoyingly over and over. I'm down in my basement now using a PC that uses MESS and not a newer version of MAME. So if you only need to use KAT for one game your still doing OK unless that is like your all time favorite 5200 game.

I woke up and read this post and did some testing and yes I have both buttons working. I'm using MAME 174 though it was easy to setup it seems that as long as you have the bios files you can just add the platform under MAME using the same command line that Brad illustrated. Then add a directory path to your games in MAMEUI and launch I found a few things tricky as for Beamrider you have to start the game by using number keys for options and by default button 1 is set to do two functions and at first does neither. I mapped the number keys to my d-pad, R analog stick, shoulder buttons and triggers then I could start the game. I tested with this game specifically because I know it uses two separate buttons.

Its been changed to feature request in the header.

Keep'em coming! You seem to be really enjoying yourself.

We could change scrape as to get metadata and media for.

Jason I can't reproduce it so no worries it could have been a system issue.

Okay well if the box was checked that's at least one step of troubleshooting down. Now you didn't unzip the archives yourself by any chance did you. Does MAME know where to look for the games ie did you move them to LB games folder without editing your MAME.ini if so MAME will be looking for the ROMs in a different location.

You can link to the forums and guides of that site just not any of the copywrited material. Emuparadise is a great resource for the emulation community and there is a ton of useful knowledge around there. Zorlon is very helpful.

Okay I just had LaunchBox freeze on me at the same time a notification asking me if I'm having sound issues pops up and then when restarting LB no video or sound work. I'm using VLC

I just started updating my Famicom Disk System metadata and images and I noticed during the wizard there isn't an option to use the scrape as feature any chance that will be added to the wizard?

Go to tools manage emulators select MAME and edit uncheck the check box Extract ROM Archive before running if that is checked MAME will not run.

I don't really know I have looked at that drive numerous times but never bought it myself. I think that it would but that is just a guess with no actual real world experience with the drive. I just can't imagine that it is that slow that it can't pull off playing a game.

There is a post on the forum where one of the users talks about using BigBox or LB I forget which no on the Nvidia Shield tablet so I would say that if it works on the tablet it would work on the TV. AutiumSounds was the OP I believe if that helps you search.

Yeah they look great in full screen thanks for making these up bro!

Found that alternative for my comics I think

Yeah they are nice I like how they look like they have scan lines.

Typical corporate greed from one of the scummiest companies around. For some reason we still shill out about $700 a month for 6 phones and cable and internet it like the election all the choices suck but at least Verizon is extremely reliable. Sounds shady and like false advertisement to me. I mean for real can these few holdout people really be costing Verizon that much money? I know they don't seem to be putting any strain on my bandwidth
