Dualshock 4 controllers are my goto controllers for pretty much everything except genesis, saturn and mame fighters that use 6 buttons. I use a USB saturn pad for that.

like most here I listen to metal and outrun/retrowave. I particularly like bands that combine elements of both like Haken's last album and the new ZETA album.

I used to collect but I've lived in 3 states in 5 years so I have gotten rid of everything except my model 1 sega genesis, everdrive and commodore 1084D1 monitor which I have connected up via rgb through the serial port on the back. I use that for the real deal classic experience but even then with ULMB, black frame insertion, runahead frames, universal shader support and a USB saturn pad I don't even need that anymore. So I pretty much only emulate now. The experience is better than the real thing imo.

I'd add all the cave games but if nothing else I'd add ddp doj black label.

This one I really like. It's very tasteful, doesn't drag out too long, isn't tied to any specific theme and isn't as...ostentatious as some of the videos I've seen on here (as beautifully animated as they are). Works well with any bigbox theme. A+

Coverbox - Sega 32X View File Giving full credit to faeran for creating the great coverbox themes originally I present a modified Genesis theme to fit the Sega 32X. It includes the original copperplate font referenced by the theme. Unzip the file to your Launchbox/Themes directory Install the copperplate font located in the fonts folder if you haven't already navigate to your 32X platform in bigbox set the theme to coverbox 32X Enjoy. I thank faeran for their great work on these and hope I'm not coming off as crass by aping these and making mods to them. Submitter whoozwah Submitted 06/12/2018 Category Big Box Custom Themes  

CoverBox - Sega Saturn.zip View File I have tried my hand at modifying the fantastic coverbox Sega CD theme by faeran to fit the Sega Saturn. I included the Saturn font inside the Fonts folder. Unzip the file to your Launchbox/Themes directory Go to the fonts folder and install the SegaSaturn font Go to bigbox and open your Sega Saturn window. Choose the CoverBox - Sega Saturn theme. Enjoy. Full credit to faeran for creating the theme. I just made some small modifications to it. Submitter whoozwah Submitted 06/10/2018 Category Big Box Custom Themes  

I'm sorry. I don't. It may be that it's loading the sound driver before the video driver. There may be a way to point the shell entry in the registry to a script that adds a short delay before loading bigbox and that might fix it. It would look something like this: cd path\to\bigbox sleep n (where n = number of seconds you want to delay launching bigbox) bigbox.exe save that as a .bat file and use that as your shell and see if that works

Maybe try changing the title to Sega Genesis. I know you have scrape as set to genesis but it couldn't hurt.

changing the shell in regedit is a hardcore way to do it. It will work but you could just put a shortcut to bigbox in the startup folder in your start menu and see if that works. You'd have to undo your regedit to see the start menu though.

I think the theme is great. I would like to +1 the absence of the smaller windowed fanart in the absence of the video. I would also like the option of hiding the platform details on the platform screen so that it's just the horizontal menu of the clear logos with the platform fanart behind it. I specifically don't download the videos because I'm not a fan of them and the theme is just a bit weird without them.

I would like to contribute as well.

I've just started trying out the big box beta and it's pretty fantastic. Would it be possible to have a view that shows all games? If that's possible already with metadata manipulation can you advise how it can be done? Thanks
