I'm not to good with spec, but can confirm the i5 and gtx 660 will run ps1. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

I'm just not sure if you can bulk edit it to not use an emulator... (This tells launchbox to treat an item like a program and not a rom), so maybe double check that first. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

You can go to import, roms, files, use windows search for .exe in whatever folder, pick any emulator, doesn't matter, name platform, scrape as windows, import. Then select all the games you just imported into launchbox, right click, bulk edit, and change the emulator to no emulator. This should work Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

You can call the platform(s) whatever you want, but scrape as windows. I guess since launchbox is windows only... it's the catch all for PC games. But that's only relevant to how you import and scrape them. As mentioned above, once imported, you can sort them however you like. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

You're always going to scrape them as windows games, but you may be able to create a platform for each service, say "Blizzard", just scrape it as windows. If you want to go full on, you can go to manage platforms and change all the platform information and put in some personal art. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Your settings are saved in the config files. If you use the ra installer rather than zip, install to a different directory then drag over the configs. Recommend using Stella as stated above. I've never had a problem with it. If not, download the newest ra zip and just pull out the exe and in this case the dlls and overwrite in your install. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

7-zip returned an error while trying to extract the archive
fromlostdays replied to rwfresh's topic in Troubleshooting
You should not be extracting mame roms. Turn that off and run them as zips. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk -
What I do for multi disc games - bad idea or not?
fromlostdays replied to airbikecop's topic in Emulation
I haven't set it up myself, but this should help: http://www.rlauncher.com/wiki/index.php?title=MultiGame Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk -
What I do for multi disc games - bad idea or not?
fromlostdays replied to airbikecop's topic in Emulation
Creating and importing the m3u files is the classiest you can do with PS right now. Import the rest as cue. For other systems with multiple disks, you can let launchbox combine games with the same name as a single game. I'm not actually sure how to swap disks on the fly for other systems though. I know Rocketlauncher lets you do it for pretty much any system. -
I think for many of those retro style controllers windows sees them as "generic usb controller" and doesn't differentiate Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
-
I remember a long time ago, and I'm not very savvy, but the gist was some guy realized it was actually windows that was swapping controller ids. It assigns ids on a first come first serve bases so even having multiple of the same controller, say xbox controller, plugged in, the ids will swap depending on which one you turn on first.

I don't think there's a way to do this without leaving all of the controllers connected at all times. RetroArch will save a controller config, but it will apply that config to whatever is plugged in at the moment. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

2 questions: Alternate game star rating - keep roms name in title
fromlostdays replied to Strathos70's topic in Noobs
The only way you can keep the rom name is if you deselect using the launchbox database on import. Or you can manually change the names within launchbox. If you do the former, launchbox will still match your video and artwork but it will have to be named exactly like the rom. I'm not sure about the star rating Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk -
I'm sure this can be done in ahk... but I don't know how. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Other than that.. I'm sort of at a loss. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

If you use Rocketlauncher you can set up Pause, which will allow you to browse those for a game via a Pause menu. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Guide: How to Import Blizzard Games into LaunchBox
fromlostdays replied to FoxyMonty's topic in Noobs
Thanks for the excellent guide! Is there a way to have wow itself bypass the loggin screen as well? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk -
They fixed the functionality that let's you turn it off for specific library items, so you don't have to kill it anymore to launch bigbox. Having said that, it may occasionally revert back to desktop configuration depending on what you launch with bigbox... so.... will you share the script? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Since we're steering from the original topic just a bit, I do want to point out that in terms of featutes, the steam controller configuration is number one. It even comes with fully customizable radial menus, does like five different button activation methods (short and long pull, double tap) etc. It's incredible. It's comes with a price. As of right now it means that steam will have to be running at all times, and it tends to take over stuff you don't want it to. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Launchbox is meant to be fully portable. I don't think it will leave any kind of mess in the registry if you just delete it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

I can help with RL, and will, but at this point even I'm starting to suggest getting launchbox set up first, and then, once you're comfortable, you can add Rocketlauncher later at any time. It does potentially make troubleshooting much more difficult. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

So it seems you've set up the launchbox plugin in rocketlauncher. Did you import any games into launchbox under the system name Final Burn Alpha? It's just telling you that it's looking for your launchbox xmls in that folder and not finding the one it's looking for. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

If you're using rocketlauncher plugin correctly, you won't ever need to use command lines in launchbox. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Ok so first and foremost, do all the roms work in mame? If so, move on to rocketlauncher. You need to set up launchbox as a frontend there. It's not difficult, just make sure you're using the launchbox plugin. After that, audit your roms in RL and launch. If no problems, we've narrowed down the issue to your launchbox configuration. This is only if you want to get Rocketlauncher working. If you're new to this, I might recommend leaving out RL and just dealing with Launchbox. In other words, leave mame as your emulator. Take a screenshot of your mame emulator settings. You can do this by going to tools/manage emulators in launchbox. Post that here. You definitely made one or more missteps along the way but it's hard to figure out based on your description. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
