You say you had to re-import. Did it work the second time? What did you do differently?
done nothing different on re-import... it wasn't the only system it happened on for me.
I'd probably wait for someone who knows what they are talking about first.

Hello all!
This is my first post to the forums. I'm loving Launchbox so far, and have paid for a licence. I have managed to set up SNES, Genesis and a few other consoles so far, but have come unstuck on MAME. Here's what I have done:
- I installed the latest version of MAME.
- I downloaded the: MAME 2003 Reference Set: MAME 0.78 ROMs, CHDs, and Samples from Archive.org
- I used the new option: Import MAME arcade full set in Launchbox.
- I went through the various options, using the same process as ETA Prime, also adding my EmuMovies account for Snaps
- Then I waited.
- A very long time indeed (I think it took around 12 hours to grab all the videos and metadata and such).
That brings me to today. Having finally completed - and with no errors - Launchbox shows no games in the arcade tab. In fact, no matter what I hide/unhide, they are nowhere to be found. I wonder if any of you knowledgable folks can help? I'm clearly doing something completely wrong.
Thank you for your time!
mine took 23 hrs and yes I had that same issue and had to re-import.
-
another issue i clicked on playlists and went back to platform view and it left the playlist names but changed the total count.

Your file total still doesn't align with a full set which the importer is meant to be used with. A complete 201 Non Merged set is 35,770 files.
im using 200 but i guess the point is the import is just listing whats in the database as a total which is incorrect. so if someone tries to only import 10 games it will say 36000 has imported and say you have that many games.
-
Just now, Lordmonkus said:
Yeah, Merged set has less files than actual games, all the clones are packed into the games zip file. The importer, if you chose to add all the clones that would inflate the game total compared to the file count.
apologies my man i used non-merged

I'm very confused by what you mean here. You don't use VisibleCount to change how many are actually displayed in the wheel; it's only used on the backend to define how many need rendered at any one time. If you're looking to make the wheels smaller or larger or have more or less items displayed, it's the Camera properties that you need to adjust.
even if you change the camera properties things will still get cut off or youll still see the image of the next logo, is it not possible to set the property spacing evenly for the entire wheel as the logos get closer to the end of the screen as the rotationamount brings the logo closer on one side or even set the property for each logo appearing on the screen. Is it possible to scale the clear logos as they appear so spacing for different sized images is equal?

If you see images popping in, you just need to increase the visible count. The visible count should be slightly larger than what is actually displayed on the screen.
if i increase the visiblecount then more display on the wheel and you also get a little preview image of the next clear logo, or is this something not achievable yet? I've played with every combination of
CurveAmount="" CameraZPosition="" VisibleCount="" PageSize="" Spacing="" ItemZPosition="" SelectedItemZPosition="" RotationAmount="" Margin="" Padding=""
-
man i wish we had this many responses/help in the theme section
-
@Jason Carr with VisibleCount you shouldn't see popping/images coming from the side? values 3 between 8 cause this or am I doing something wrong
VisibleCount="4"
-
Is it possible with the clear logo coverflow to make everything in the wheel the same amount of transparency except the selected middle logo and have the middle logo not have lines through it like in the image below?

Under options - sidebar you can select All to be displayed so it is "normal" to have it if you want. I'm assuming once selected it acts as a new platform
You Foxy beast
On a side note my hdd with my videos is disconnected selected All platform then ctr + a in the view and got the following message in Launchbox and when clicking on OK it closes LaunchBox without an error, so maybe an exception instead of closin?

I remember this coming up before. All I can figure is that maybe you have a platform or a playlist named All? Do you have any files named All.xml in LaunchBox\Data\Platforms or LaunchBox\Data\Playlists?
oh i thought this was normal... so All shouldn't be showing? no idea where it came from if its not supposed to, and no to all the above.

Its built into BB, just push Up, that should bring it up.
Sorry I should of been more clear I'm talking about how he removed search and was able to make the letters centred evenly as the default is opposite of that not centred and not evenly spread out, so like depending on the letter the padding? for each letter is different.
Did you create another Style? If so do you mind showing me how you done it? or did you just place it in a viewbox and removed/added padding?
-
How about the A-Z search? is that from a plugin?
-
The illusive not being able to "Back".

Looking good.
Do you plan on having the option to change the separating ; for Player Mode and Genre to something of the users choice like "- | ·" ?

Hey @Grila are you able to have a look at this for me? I'm not able to centre the dot and it also gets cut off when going to the A-Z search? Maybe a better way to do it?

Did you use the new full set importer for MAME?
I haven't touched TurboGrafx; what format are the ROM files in?
for all systems file extensions that i imported are .zip and .7z
mame - .zip (nope, just imported the folder)
nec turbografx-16 - .7z
nec turbografx-cd - .7z -
not sure if the correct thread... just imported the following systems below, got no errors however it did not import all games.
mame - 16892/16936
nec turbografx-16 - 88/94
nec turbografx-cd - 45/46 (didn't import Fantasy Star Soldier (USA))
Imported MAME romset not showing
