New Platform videos are not showing up in launchbox 7 beta 10
CriticalCid replied to hipp1eguy's topic in Troubleshooting
The View in your screenshot doesn’t support any platform videos. You have to switch to a View which does. You can either switch the View in your Big Box options in “Views -> Platform List view” or you can set up a key/button to switch the views on the fly (Keyboard Mappings or Controller Buttons in your options) -
I think what he means is that LaunchBox doesn’t save your settings for this. You can move and resize all the columns but when you exit LB and reopen it, everything is set back to standard. Same thing happens when you switch between the Images and List view. I don't know if this is bug or by design @Jason Carr ?

There's a workaround for Amiga. @Zombeaver made a great and detailed tutorial for it. I hope that helps you

CriticalCid replied to CriticalCid's topic in Game Media
I hopefully have fixed that by reducing the file size of the whole archive. At least it works perfectly fine for me on my end now. Can you try it again?- 68 replies

Well...this subreddit isn't dedicated to the one and only king of FE's. It's for an App for... space flights schedules? What the hell!? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.foschwi.launchbox

Great job Viking! Especially the platform view which features your 4:3 videos looks really nice

theme CriticalZone / CriticalZone - BlueBox
CriticalCid replied to CriticalCid's topic in Big Box Custom Themes
True, but you can set a default background image for each platform which is shown instead of the black background when there’s no fanart for the game itself. Just add your platform backgrounds into the Fanart folder for each platform. You can find them in “\LaunchBox\Images\Platforms\..”- 626 replies

video Unified Widescreen Platform Video Theme Project
CriticalCid replied to CriticalCid's topic in Game Media
@imdavid555 I'm on it! @bundangdon and everyone else who has a request for a system: The structure of the unified themes is pretty simple, so with the right images I could create some new ones for you. I will do all your requests BUT you have to provide me all of the following source files: - Neutral Background image (no characters, consoles or controller). If possible in 1920x1080. - Gameplay video (NO trailer / features at least 3 or more games) - Clear Logo (transparent background / high resolution) - Picture of the system (transparent background / high resolution) [I don't need that for arcade systems] - Picture of a gamepad for this system (transparent background / high resolution) [I don't need that for arcade, handheld and computer systems] - Character of a popular game which can be played on this system (transparent background / high resolution) I have zero Photoshop skills, so all images already have to be properly edited to fit the requirements or I have to refuse your request.- 68 replies

CriticalCid replied to CriticalCid's topic in Big Box Custom Themes
@Porl Hendy I just use the standard Fanart - Backgrounds you get through the importer from the LB games database and EmuMovies. @imdavid555 Well, then you have to nag @Jason Carr long enough until he adds support for this- 626 replies

theme CriticalZone / CriticalZone - BlueBox
CriticalCid replied to CriticalCid's topic in Big Box Custom Themes
It’s possible but that would require some work as the standard platform banner element in Big Box doesn’t support .gif files. You would have to add every .gif file manually for each platform directly in the code of the view.- 626 replies

@andyco47 If you can give me a widescreen HyperSpin theme for it, sure. But I won’t create one for it from scratch, sorry. @imdavid555 Should be all fine now- 68 replies

I get that as well. Seems that EmuMovies has some server issues at the moment. All we can do is to wait until they have fixed them.- 626 replies

Yes, these are the Cinematix videos by BakerMan which you get directly through LaunchBox. If something is missing you can fill in the gaps with other video theme styles like or- 626 replies

Well, you weren’t very specific which type of platform videos you mean. Themes for your mentioned platforms are available in my Unified and Nyny77 Cinematics style, but not as Cinematix from BakerMan.- 626 replies

Indie Games (PC) custom boxarts collection ( WIP thread / 300+ )
CriticalCid replied to Aurel's topic in Game Media
Awesome! Thank you very much! These are looking great as usual Yeah, I don’t know very much about Korean games either but I found this gem through one of my favorite gaming websites http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/ I can wholehearted recommend this website to anyone who is interested in the complete spectrum of retro games! Btw. thanks for the tip on Geppy X. Will definitely check that one out. -
I also know most of these videos but I didn’t know that you made them. Great job! Now I really hope that @Jason Carr will push this feature a little higher on his ToDo list!

Yes, there are videos for these systems. Everything you need to know about the platform videos should be covered on point VII of the download description. Let me know if anything is unclear.- 626 replies

Indie Games (PC) custom boxarts collection ( WIP thread / 300+ )
CriticalCid replied to Aurel's topic in Game Media
Thanks again @Aurel. Your work is pretty much appreciated! I hope I don’t act rude when I drop a list on you, but I just went through my whole collection and wrote down every indie game which would need your awesome Photoshop magic -
Open „TextFiltersView.xaml“ and go to line 56 which looks like this: <transitions:TransitionPresenter Grid.Column="0" TransitionSelector="{Binding ImageTransitionSelector}" Content="{Binding ImageView}" Just add VerticalAlignment="Bottom" right before the /> at the end of this line and you should be good.

Everything regarding the games details can be changed in the „GameDetailsView.xaml” and “TwoColumnGameDetailsView.xaml” files. The TwoColumn one will only affect the CoverFlow with Details view. All the other views are handled through the GameDetailsView.xaml The opacity of the glass background has to be changed for each view individually though. Just open the view you want to edit and search for the lines which start with <Border. The last line of the border segment has the opacity value you want to change.

Hi ninja, great to see you here! Unfortunately, there’s no native support for HyperSpin themes and probably never will be because Jason doesn’t want to step on any toes over there. But you can use video themes like the ones from @BakerMan without any problems. You just have to use a Big Box theme which offers a nice view for these kind of videos. I can’t go in to any details right now but there’s gonna be a huge announcement regarding that topic in the next time. So stay tuned
