    Also puzzled here, and running out of ideas. All I can figure is maybe a corrupted .NET install, or something of that nature (or maybe anti-virus interference?).

    only have windows defender on this PC and I turned that off too. The .NET was installed from LaunchBox. I tried also manually downloading it.

    Odd; it looks like some kind of file got corrupted; that's what "An attempt to load a program with an incorrect format" means. Can you try reinstalling the beta again to see if it fixes it?

    tried three times.

    I moved my entire LaunchBox-11.3-beta-17 directory to another PC, but when running the exe it doesn't start up.

    Installing LaunchBox-11.2 over the top allows it to start, but then installing beta-17 it doesn't work again.

    This is a re-imaged PC up to date on drivers, updates etc and Microsoft Windows Desktop Runtime - 3.1.6 (x64) is installed

    @sundogak is your experience similar to the video? I can recreate this every time. Open a new instance of LaunchBox and If the selected Platform isn't in the view of the scroll bar as in the video but the Platform is displaying and you access any dialog such as Options, Edit etc it will freeze until you scroll down the Platform list and reach that selected Platform.

    For me none of those themes display the systemview and optionsview as it should.

    Edit: It randomly started working.

    @wallmachine Try adding your the Text Clearlogo Images you use into the BigBox Media Overrides / Images / Platform Catagories / Clear Logo folder.  

    Wheres this? do I just create the a folder called BigBox Media Overrides? Current Location of images \LaunchBox\Themes\Pandora\Images\Platforms\Clear Logo

    Summary:

    • if you enter the options view then go platforms view it doesn't remember the RotationAmount
    • if you enter the systems view then go platform view it remembers the RotationAmount
    • if you enter the game view then go platform view it remembers the RotationAmount
    • if you are on the platform category view and enter into platform view it doesn't remember the RotationAmount

    Edit: Ah I see what you mean... I'll create some art for it but it won't fix the RotationAmount value being forgotten.

    @wallmachine Keep in mind that the fewer games there are in the current list, the more likely the random selector will end up picking the same game, so it's expected for small lists of games. So even though sometimes "random" picks aren't what you would want, I think the only way to improve on the current system would be to make it not random, or force not landing on a previously selected game.

    Just wondering if something would be put in place for like top 50, top 100 sets as it ends up on the same game more often than not

    @Jason Carr Below was my second attempt at recording the list as the first file got corrupt on USB but from memory it basically did the cycle the same except different games and platforms. For example Type X+ first showed Battle Gear 4, three times in a row and for the dupe Platform it was Super Famicom also from memory it seems it did the dupe Games and Platform roughly at the same cycle, probably just a coincidence.

    Getting the below audio error and then BigBox closes whenever I go into the Sound Settings in BigBox and change the sound. I have never really messed with changing the sounds I use until today and as soon as I enter the Sound menu section and select to change the Sound Pack this error happens. Seems to only happen with Sound Pack change. It does it 100% of the time. Also it is not affected by theme. Does it in Default, Unified Redux, Critical Zone, and at least 4 others. 

    I changed the following and no crash on my side.

    Master Volume
    Video Volume
    Music Volume

    Probably got nothing related but I did update here:
