  1. I'll let someone who officially represents the company answer your questions about the licensing but the $50 gets you lifetime updates which are worth having because I haven't even been using the program for a year yet it has been update numerous times in that period. You can however upgrade to that for less money after you purchase the $20 license I believe to switch to lifetime it is $30 so still $50 in total but then you get to see if you think it is worth it to continue to get updates (it will be but you can decide on your own). As for MAME saves, it is more of an emulator side of things. I've never actually saved any of the games I either keep throwing imaginary quarters in until I've finished the game or just start over again at another time but there are some hardcore MAME people here who can probably help you out.
  2. If you are going to do all of those systems anyway you can include a Famicom Disk System also.
  3. I believe there is an adapter that lets you plug in intellivision controllers to your PC but that doesn't help for wireless solutions. if you have a XBox controller (360 or One) or any controller with two analogs a d-pad and 12 buttons you can always map the analogs as number buttons ie left analog 1=Laxisy+ 2=Laxisx+ 3=Laxisy- 4=Laxisx-. Personally I would love to see some one make a wireless controller for these consoles so you could easily map the number keys and maybe even print your own overlays to add to the controllers.
  4. I personally just try to find my own images for missing games but that is an arduous task when its a lot of games. If you only got 1500 games you already have a scaled back version mine is around 3,500 and that is with excluding all clones hacks bootlegs and non-working games.
  5. I just copied it from the forum post and then pasted into the AutoHotKey tab for eSPXe on another computer and it it working there too. Are you trying to close it with Alt+F4 or Escape the code you put in should close it with Escape and not the usual method of closing eSPXe
  6. It does work I tested it my self before posting it.
  7. For your ePSXe 2.0 issue go into LaunchBox go to tools, manage emulators select espxe from your list then click edit go to the AutoHotKey tab in the edit form and paste this code in ; This section closes eSPXe when pressing Escape $Esc:: { Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}} } Now when you hit escape from either LB or BB it will close without the confirmation window appearing.
  8. I'm assuming that everyone will be able to contribute but only select people will be given moderation privileges even in the beta. That being said I would like to participate in the beta.

    Arcade

    For some Sega arcade boards MAME doesn't emulate the games and you will need other emulators Sega Model 2 Emulator, SuperModel and Demul are all good emulators for games that will not run in MAME (or at least they didn't in the past if this has changed I don't know) I also use Kawakas for CPS1, CPS2 and NeoGeo but I believe that MAME is good enough to handle those boards at this point I just haven't switched yet. Kawakas needs to be updated but probably won't be.
  10. Thanks for that Brad I've never gotten that far in any dual disc games and truthfully stayed away from them for that reason this seems like it would probably work.
  11. Either edit everyone 1 by 1 if they are all in subfolders you can just hit browse and then click the correct file. If not you will have to use control +a to select every game and then right click on one of the game images and delete them all then read this post and see the instructions on how to pick the proper file type either method mentioned in the post should work.
  12. Yeah I don't keep any of my ROMs in LaunchBox so I only use the server for ROMs those. LaunchBox and the emulators are kept locally on every computer as are most ROMs except a few of the simpler systems but even with my laptops where space is an issue they access all of my PS1 and Saturn games from the server and I don't see any performance issues with them most of them won't emulate anything higher than those systems so I've never really tried it with Dolphin or PCSX2.
  13. I use Windows 10 and drag and drop works every time as long as all the files are selected so its weird that you are having an issue with it. In search you can't use ctrl+a until you have at least selected the 1st file so if you just hit the key combo without 1st selecting a file that could be the issue of course if everything was highlighted and it didn't work then I don't know what the issue could be try the other way next time as if I read correctly you have already completed adding the files 1 by 1. This is the best way to handle any multi file games or any games that have their own subfolders so it probably won't be the last time that you have to use it.
  14. Oh yeah I've used it many times ever since Brad originally showed it to me it is great for moving whole installs to completely different computers. I noticed you have a NAS server that means you actually have the option to keep the files on your NAS and use them although I wouldn't recommend doing so for PS2 GameCube or Wii games really anything else and network storage works rather well. Of course that is assuming that you can access your NAS server from file explorer using the \\Network computer name\shared folder\platform\game. My experience is with Windows Severs and they have the same file access as a regular networked computer I've never used a NAS but know a little about them but I don't know if you can access the files in the same matter or if you have to jump through extra hoops like while trying to access an Android phone through file explorer ie mapping a network location and using ftp to access the phone.
  15. Did you end up using Notepadd++ or did it just work?
  16. If you formally want to make a feature request you should click Send Feedback at the top of the page this will take you to Jason's BitBucket repository where bugs and feature request can be submitted tracked and voted upon by other users more votes means higher priority.
  17. First try to see if you even need to it may just work.
  18. Good to know but still basically the same exact thing with both methods working 100% just really a matter of user preference.
  19. The only issue with using ESC to close the process is that now if you want to go into the menu and change the settings you will have to open KAT5200 from outside of LaunchBox I don't use my controller to close the games but when I know that an emulators menu is the ESC key I use that same code but make it F1 instead of ESC so I can still access the menu but if you are going without a keyboard then it isn't really that much of a hassle to use ESC
  20. Drag and Drop and the importer are pretty much the exact same thing I just prefer DnD because I can work with it in full screen then just put it into a window when I'm ready to move the files instead of being stuck using File Explorer through LB because basically that is all LaunchBox does is open a smaller window to File Explorer that can't be resized.

    Raspberry Pi 2

    LaunchBox doesn't need much power to run I run it succesfully on two tablet and the MeeGoPad all three have the same Atom processor one of the tablets and the MGP have 2GB of RAM the other tablet only has one as long as you turn down the RAM cache then there is no problem at all and this is with thousands of games on there.
  22. Yeah so you can replace that path with the new one if necessary if you move to your external with the same exact file structure ie the same exact path except the drive letter being changed than it may work without any fiddling.
  23. LaunchBox has the option under Tools options input AutoHotKey
