[8.3-beta-1 Released]

It's all about how you bring it forward. 

I mean I have requested/hoped that a feature i wanted - (each theme being able to have unique image sets Covers and such) 

The unfortunate fact for me is that there's just not a huge demand although. I THINK that themes could be taken to a whole new level and themes that is designed with DVD style covers could have that for systems like the snes out having to replace everything. 

 

LOL I just snuck a reminder of my request in ?. but see no crazy demands or exceptions.  I don't think anyone minds people requesting stuff or once in a while trying to bring attention to something. It's all about how you do it ?. 

Good day

It seems like the keyboard shortcuts for zoom in and out aren't working, unless I'm just being dense and clicking the wrong buttons somehow.

Didn't work for me but I found on my keyboard I have to hold in the green FN button.

Thanks @ALIE. I'll be going back through all my Coverbox themes at some point and implementing this splash page (and a few other things) to all of them.

It does seem like Sega is going well. Sony may need some love soon enough.

Awesome. Is The covers flying in and disc spinning what you are thinking about adding. Because that is very cool as well. 

[Retro Achievements Brainstorming]

I would like to see a section in BB where achievements for games you have played could be viewed (like the Xbox one in the picture).. 

And as others mentioned the whole idea behind profiles and friends list like Xbox, Steam and Playstation would be a perfect match and benifit the achievement system. 

[CoverBox]

I have some shall we call them hope/request and praise ?. 

On some systems when picking them your theme begins with like a bios screen video. I think the Gameboy is one this absolutely blew my mind the first time it happened something I would love to see added on more themes. 

 

Second the request hope/question. i

Is Playstation 1 a system you are considering ?.. 

[Iv had a couple of drinks and... rpcs3 trophy integration in LB. oh its a a feature request.]

rpcs3 has trophy ? News to me

[Modernist]

love it.

one question is it possible to speed up the transition from still images into video ?.

I would try downloading the redist pack from the nightly 1st and see if when you have those dlls if it fixes anything

that did not work.

if i want to transfer settings and cores and what not to a stable build what should i copy over. i think brat did a video on it but im not finding it.

[Stellar ~ RetroArch Nightly Updater]

Ok so I should download a version before the qt stuff was implemented. 

[Stellar ~ RetroArch Nightly Updater]

Yah I took nightly in stellar RA+Core. 

So I messed it up ?

are you on a nightly the qt stuff is what is supposed to be added in the 1.7.3

Yah I believe I am. 

[Stellar ~ RetroArch Nightly Updater]

Retroarch seems to have gone totally made for me the program works when just going into the UI.

but cores isn't working when launching games (using Rocketlauncher as I always do) I get this error.

On my list is is #2.

But your list seems to be missing that dropdown menu.

Yah very odd.  I will look into it thanks for the help anyway. 

[Stellar ~ RetroArch Nightly Updater]

I can't find that option but mine is in Danish and I don't think the translation is good.  From the list what number is that?

See if you can confirm it's NVIDIA by settings RetroArch to use Integrated Graphics.

Thanks I'll try to see. 

I updated a second RA and these Dll came up missing. 

Qt5Core.dll
Qt5gui. Dll
Qt5widgets. Dll
libicuin58. dll
libicuin58. dll
libpcre2-16-0.dll
libicuuc58
libicudt58

 

[Stellar ~ RetroArch Nightly Updater]

Got it updated unfortunately it didn't fix the issue I've been having. I will make post if necessary but I'll ask quickly maybe someone knows. 

When I go into exclusive full screen first it got all black and I couldn't see. Now I can see RA at first but it's frozen at least I can't see that I'm navigating. 

I hoped updating would work but my guess it's a Nvidia driver issue?. 

[Stellar ~ RetroArch Nightly Updater]

Arh as I was doing it I knew I should have taken notes. 

I know Qt5Core.dll was one but can't remember the rest.

@ALIE @DOS76

I got the same thing. There's a new dll missing.

Go here https://raw.libretro.com/nightly/windows/x86_64/

Download RetroArch.7z 194.3MB

Extract the folder named platforms to your RetroArch folder. Inside is a file qwindows.dll.

 

Or I've attached a small download of the folder and file here in a zip.

platforms.zip

Got it but i needed like 6 other DLL files. 

[Stellar ~ RetroArch Nightly Updater]

hey i just updated and now i get this error.

failed to load or could not find the Qt platforms  plugins "windows"

now I'm  scared
