  1. Good to know Not a major issue at all, but with that in mind, it would be nice to have a "Remember window size/position" in LaunchBox options
  2. On the topic of betas, I'm not sure if this is just me but recently I've noticed that the details panel (on the right side) doesn't save its position when it closes. Whenever I return to open launchbox, the details panel returns to its default location and I have to reposition it again. As far as I remember, this position was saved from where the user (me) last left it, or was I just dreaming that?

    Welcome back to the emulation scene! MAME is certainly the best option for arcade games of course, along with many of the more 'obscure' but decent systems that don't get much coverage and attention such as Bally Astrocade, Fairchild Channel F, along with many of the classic computer systems, most of which I've never heard of However, for most of your emulation needs, Retroarch is probably the best choice, and for the newer consoles (Dreamcast, Gamecube, PlayStation 2, etc.) stand-alone emulators (Dolphin, PCSX2, etc.) are the best way to go. Have fun!
  4. I wonder how the rocketlauncher team will respond? But it's certainly a great idea/plan nonetheless
  5. Mixed feelings here. As some of the other members have mentioned, more time and resources should be focused on the windows version of LaunchBox, rather than anything else. However, I do play around with Linux from time to time, and understand that it would be extremely welcome from the large (and growing) community of Linux users out there. My "free" advice to you would be that if you have enough users contribute to kickstarter, then by all means, go for it!
  6. Another idea/option is to use Kodi as your "main" program and from there you can launch netflix, launchbox, etc. as there are plugins available which will allow you to do so. Just an idea to consider
  7. Very useful! Thank you for sharing this could this method also be used for making (audio) cd cases?
  8. Yep, it seems a little bit out of place here
  9. I absolutely concur with your choice retrofresh is probably one of the fastest/smoothest themes that I use on my system as well
  10. Right here https://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/windows/x86_64/latest/
  11. I'm still, really hoping for #1 and 2 on my (original) list Posted July 2, 2017 (edited) 1. The option to allow the selected title in the basic vertical rom list (BigBox) stay centered (instead of scrolling all the way down or up) 2. The ability to use custom box images (in bulk) for various platforms/systems when there are no images available. (instead of using the generic 'rubik's cube' bigbox image that appears in its place). I've mentioned this idea a few times before and it got a lot of positive feedback from other users.
  12. It looks like I may have spoken a little too soon. The core was once again updated today, and the program-crashing 'bug' seems to have been taken care of and is working nicely now
  13. Thanks a lot for passing on this information! Just wanted to add that this core seems to still be in the early stages of development or at least is still somewhat buggy. When I try to close/escape from a game (using the mesen core) the emulator always crashes for me, but this is not the case while using other cores. However i'm sure that the retroarch team will have these problems fixed soon
  14. It's a matter of preference, but if you have your emulators already configured with rocketlauncher, or are migrating from another frontend (such as hyperspin), then it's very convenient to continue using it. Every time you add a new system in launchbox, you can just point the chosen emulator to rocketlauncher, and don't have to worry about any other configurations. Also, having the ability to use the "pause" screen, fade screens, and bezels are very nice extras
  15. Those are bezels, which can either be used with the emulator "retroarch" or the program "rocketlauncher" which is a middle-ware frontend that can be used with launchbox
    Fantastic theme! This is the first theme I've seen which uses the wall-view in a very attractive way. Keep up the good work!
  16. Very nice theme! It's the first time I've really enjoyed using the wall-view too
  17. I'm guessing that you could upload them here. At least I've seen it done before with several other media-related files, or you can always use a cloud-sharing service like Google Drive or Mega.
  18. No criticism being given here, just some friendly advice and encouragement which could help prevent any future criticism from others i'd love to help but don't know much about coding or design.
  19. I agree with Styphelus. Anyone with a slightly large collection of games wouldn't be able (or want) to use the fanart/wallpapers in this theme. I would highly suggest using game videos/screenshots instead of the fanart that you've placed in there. And where you placed the screenshot/videos (originally) could be substituted with something else such as the game logo, cartridge artwork, etc. However, it's a very nice looking theme
  20. Wow, I didn't know that netplay was possible with Dolphin? At the moment I don't think this can be accomplished, but if someone were to make a plugin that could have the two programs interact with each other then it could certainly happen.
  21. Right! That's exactly what I was looking for, a second platform view which uses the same layout as the roms/games layout. I figured it would (probably) use the same code as the games-list layout and in my imagination it seems like a pretty cool idea
  22. What I mean is something like this, shown in my terrible sketch-up below Basically the artwork used in a theme for the Nintendo NES, would be replaced with the systems' artwork as you scroll through the list. However, this is probably a very huge task and it's just something to consider for future stuff. Thanks for replying!
