Please see the post linked here. I think @C-Beats did some changes to the database so try updating the metadata to see if this fixes your issue.

They are in .chd format.

I am not sure if this is beta related or not since retro achievements have been hooked back up. One thing I have noticed is that some (not all) of my games are showing that they do not have a retro achievement available on the side details bar in LaunchBox even though they do according to the retro achievement website. I have compared the hash of my games to the hash on the retro achievement website and it matches perfectly. One example of a game is Bangai-O for the Sega Dreamcast so I looked in my Dreamcast .xml file and noticed that the retro achievements hash did not match the hash that was on the retro achievements website so that's probably why no achievements showed up for that particular game. I am assuming that the hash that is in the xml file is what is pulled from their website, so not sure why that hash did not match the one from their website? I have also ran a complete rescan of all my games for retro achievements in LB and it is still pulling back some wrong hashes from certain games when I compare them to the hash on the retro achievement website as they do not match up. One other thing to note is when I just run the game through Retroarch and not LB it detects that I have the correct hash and shows the achievements that are available.

Here is how I have BigPemu setup in LaunchBox and launches fine via command line. Take special notice on the default command-line parameters

Looks good, It really came out nice.

Its looking good Jason. I am sure it is fun building it as I had a lot of fun building mine. I'm jealous of the nice size workshop as well. Looks like a beast of an arcade cabinet and will probably be heavy but vey robust. I am not sure if you are putting it in the house or not but it looks like it might be getting close to house door width size.🙂Also interior doors can vary in width from exterior doors as well.

I can confirm the controller not skipping intro video mentioned above.

I am not really using RL much these days. I did not have a problem with the module the last time I tried it as it just worked. Maybe @Headrush69 could chime in.

They have also added the -nogui command back in on the new nighty's if anyone is interested.

This is a known issue that was discussed in the topic below that @C-Beats has figured out and will be corrected in the next release.

I am not sure if this is the newest module or not but here is a link to the newest one I could find https://www.rlauncher.com/forum/index.php?threads/teknoparrot-help-launching-games.4868/post-46655

Yes that is correct, the one on the platform screen on the platforms view.

I have been using the Unified CTC theme using platform view 2 using VLC lately. I really haven't tried any other themes other than the default and I could not reproduce the issue with the default theme. But I also have not used the default theme as much either. I think it is going to be a tough nut to crack because it is random and like was mentioned earlier it only happens about 20 percent of the time. I also think it only happens randomly when I don't have "Skip Game Details Screen View" checked in the options as well.

@cor094 I have this issue as well. Did you try different themes besides Unified Refried to see if they all had the same issue before you reverted?

My controls issue with the keyboard/controller appears to be fixed in beta 7 along with the game view videos resuming correctly with "Skip Game Details View" unchecked in the settings. The platform view videos does not always resume when exiting from the game view screen but does the majority of the time. The CD not resuming spinning in certain game views with "Skip Game Details View" unchecked must be theme specific because the cd spinning does resume correctly with Unified and Unified Redux that I tested but not with Unified CTC.

It is definitely some kind of controller/keyboard issue with beta 5 and 6. When I use my keyboard on those betas several inputs do not work. When I use my 360 controller it works way better but not perfect. For example I will get a double button press will register vs a single button press when I skip the startup video sending me to the game view instead of the platform view. Also when you update through BigBox the Update box takes up the whole screen where as previously the box was smaller.

Yes I am still having same issues in beta 6. None of my controls work like pressing a button to bypass startup video or ESC which is set to my back button. The arrow keys work however to scroll the wheel. I roll back to beta 4 and do not have the startup issues.

I had to roll back to beta 4 because beta 5 I was only able to test one time because most of my controls would not work on beta 5 and I had to kill BIgBox in task manager on multiple occasions. The one time I was able to test it looked like the videos in the game view was resuming correctly upon exiting a game but the platform view would not resume correctly the majority of the time until I moved the wheel. Also I noticed that the game views that had the cd spinning did not resume spinning as well upon exiting a game until I moved the wheel. This is also all with the "Skip Game Details Screen" unchecked

One thing I noticed while having VLC chosen as the media player in BigBox. When you exit out of a game, the game video autoplays on the game details screen but then when you exit out of the game details screen into the regular game view the video does not autoplay until you move the wheel to another game. The videos do autoplay correctly however if you have WMP chosen as the media player or have the "Skip Game Details Screen" chosen as an option. This might have been going on for a while and did not notice since I have skip game details screen chosen most of the time.

I did not time it but have a AMD 5900x so it was fast already but I even noticed a 3 to 4 second decrease in startup time and in my arcade cabinet with a 8700K probably about the same decrease, maybe a little more. Both LaunchBox installs on a ssd hard drive.

Definitely notice the faster startup times.☺️
