Hey all, been a long time since I used LB. Installed fresh using default auto setup for Retroarch. Loading game, hitting F1 choosing shader, choosing save core override, but when I restart game shader is not loaded. Same thing for video settings - how do I save those? It seems the core override has the shader and video settings, but doesn't auto load, I have to go in and manually load the override. What am I missing?

The angle threw me too, but the art itself is so good that I didn't care. These are really good and it's nice to have something unique. Great work Arc.

Looks like you got a decent glass look after all

Awesome.

I'm pretty decent in Photoshop..depends what you are trying to give a glass effect, I suppose.

@Grila, sweet!

That's okay, just devote your life and all spare time to the project Haha..been there done that on my Hyperspin theme.

Adore this, can't wait to see more systems!

See, I actually liked the other games you listed, I think I own Gothic on GOG still and I played Arx and Anachronox as well - and I absolutely loved Vampire. Maybe I could go back and play it and see what it feels like today. I would probably compare it to other games though that might by my downfall..comparing it to like Dragon's Dogma or something... (at least in the controls and appearance)

I actually was HYPED for several months for that game..I pre-purchased it and when I got it I was so disappointed. The gameplay was so awful I barely lasted a few hours. Maybe if I had given it a shot for awhile I could have gotten used to it, but to me it was just so bad I couldn't even stomach it..haha! I think the wonky animations and bugs and gameplay just did it in..made it hard to "give a chance" you know? I will watch the video when I get home

Two Worlds was awful though I agree that sorting by scores might cause you to miss "some" good games, but honestly it's still a valid method IMO because if the goal is to filter down to mostly or all good games..you're still likely never going to play every game on the system, so if you missed a few here or there..it doesn't really matter (for me that is) ------------------ All great posts in here. What I have been doing is looking up some sites I trust and getting Top 100 lists for consoles (or Top 20 or 50 if smaller systems). I start by moving those games to a folder. Then I watch several "Hidden Gem" lists on YT of YouTubers I trust like AVGN or Metal Jesus, etc. I move those games over. Then I look up RPG games for that system and move all of those (because I just want all RPG, good or bad) Lastly - I look over the remaining games and move any that I have any personal attachment to be it that I rented/owned it growing up or Nostalgia, etc. So far I have done 2600, NES, SNES and cut those libraries down drastically. I think for instance (am not at home right now) my SNES is down to 200-300 instead of 800, same for NES...and I think 2600 ended up with like 50 or so. Much better for me anyway. Very nice to scroll through LB to see good games and interesting games rather than random crap I have no interest to play.

O Ohhh yeah. I am new to LB so still learning. The skinning/theming here is confusing to me, even after being a Hyperspin theme creator, lol.

Wouldn't you just use the same image and rename it for each platform in the images folder to do this?

That actually worked. There's one theme I had that always acts weird if you activate it..forcing BB to be closed..I bet it fouled something up.
