Hello. I'm submitting changes and noticed that the changes status now only goes back to 10 entries rather than the full history of requested changes (or at least I can't see any control to go back a page). Is this intentional to lower resource usage? It'll impact my submissions because I'd like to be able to see whether my submissions were approved or not and make adjustments or corrections if they weren't, i.e.- limit # of submissions to 10 active at any time.

I needed to close out the app so I just went ahead and made a report anyhow.

I can't see the message because the default window obscures the title text.

I run Big Box using four different controllers, XBox, and the BT modkits for the SNES, NES, and Genesis. Eastern convention has the SNES controller using the outside 'a' button but I'm thinking of wanting to change that to the western convention (XBox style). How can I do that for one controller but leave the others alone? It looks like the button assignments in BB are universal?

Thanks, that was it.

Right now if I open up the right details sidebar I get a scrolling list of images but no video even if I have auto-play checked.

Ok no prob.

I made a submission I shouldn't have. I tried to overlay a disc label over another disc, but I couldn't edit the image well enough to completely cover the original label. I submitted a replacement that was better and that got accepted by this morning. The former has 2 acceptances and 2 rejections. Is there anything that can be done to withdraw that first one as an oopsie?

I think my position comes down to "Why not both?" (and "Mikey likes it"... but that's neither here nor there) and inertia. I value the clean uniformity of edited images over the actual image; others might value the actual image because it's *real* (and does what it says on the label). Honestly I think the reconstruction category kinda failed since there's whole uniform image sets--and that's partly the fault of people like me and of people importing massive external sets--now across every type. Like the horse is out of the barn and halfway across the next state. It would be good to divide things up, but that might have to be a huge manual database lift to make such changes. Like two Google Summer's worth of work... which would probably be insulting to the Google Summer developers doing database freshening.

Both the DS carts I submitted got accepted. Check out the two UAS gray cartridges in Etrian Odyssey III. The one on the right is the new one. Probably 90% of cartridges use that exact frame. https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/images/10800-etrian-odyssey-iii-the-drowned-city Guitar Hero On Tour, similar deal: https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/images/6517-guitar-hero-on-tour For comparison see Final Fantasy IV: https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/images/6617-final-fantasy-iv Final Fantasy Tactics A2: https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/images/6510-final-fantasy-tactics-a2-grimoire-of-the-rift and Golden Sun Dark Dawn (6th row): https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/images/10829-golden-sun-dark-dawn Most all cart images in the database have this standard outline. No big deal or issue?

I'm editing a few missing images and refreshing some others. I've been using the outline of a common cartridge edge seen in the database. For example, most all the cartridges downloaded for the Super Famicom have the exact same outline with a different label pasted inside. I really fancy this as I like the uniformity. I've been doing the same recently with GBA and DS carts where they're missing or really distorted (like, the camera is not perfectly squared up over top of the cart) or damaged (the label has major dings and scrapes) or the lighting is poor. I got a couple rejection votes and, while I think it'll go through ultimately, is there a community consensus on what's "original" vs "fan reproduction"? I ask because it seems like 80% of the images in the database are technically reproductions and not literal photographs of physical media. edit: It could also be that I'm just adding more unnecessary media and that's garnered a rejection, but I'm hesitant to actually submit combined with a deletion of the previous image I'm improving/doctoring.

In PCSX2 I was able to import each disc as two separate games, each with the same "Generations" branding. Is there a way I can do the same for Launchbox? Right now if I try to import Disc 2 as a file, LB won't import anything because--I think--it's reading Disc 1 as the sole game.

I answered my own question. For posterity, the videos are part of the "Viking's Nostalgia" series available on the "Download Platform/Playlist Theme Videos" function.

I separated out my Super Famicom games and translations into a separate platform and thought it would be nice to have a different video than the one for the regular Super Nintendo. To be clear this would be from the series of standard platform videos that have stills of era appropriate TVs and console equipment with game snaps displayed on the TV screen.

Update: I was able to get proper feedback when the dolphinbar is set to mode 3 and assign buttons as needed. I'm still searching for which autoconfig file is the correct one for this so I can permanently set the hotkeys I want. Also got an answer from the dolphin devs that I can't run the Wiimote as actual hardware and use their hotkeys. The controller setting has to be "emulated" for that to work.
