Thanks. I still got that Super Metroid Intro Vid you made as well.

Holy Crap. That's one hell of a history. I just had a hankering to play super metroid 5 or 6 years ago and downloaded znes, wasn't happy with the menu so found myself on the HyperSpin forum with no computer skills whatsoever but with a dream haha. But I guess its people like you that made all of this possible, so thanks! In your love for games, though, we're equals. My mom bought my sister an NES when I was just 2 or 3 and they quickly realized if they put my little ass in front of it and turned it on for me, I'd zone out and be quiet for hours. Fun trivia about my journey: one of the first rom packs I got my hands on was Tosec snes (though I didn't know that at the time) and it took me weeks of trial and error to sort out what the hell the appendages to the rom names meant. Its been a long difficult journey for me haha

I'm not affiliated with the devs in any way, but I do know you shouldn't worry, at least about anything shady. I say Devs, but it's just @Jason Carr, one guy, and he's insanely busy. He probably just hasn't gotten to the ticket yet. I tagged him so he'll see this post.

Did it freeze or lose focus? What emulator are you using for mame and what if any are your exit emulator keys in bigbox? Does bigbox crash when you are using it, or when you've left it alone and the computer is trying to sleep or maybe attract mode is kicking in? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Even better. My SO jokes because I've looked at my setup and been like "I'm finally finished" so many times in the last 5 years and yet two or three weeks later I'm zoned out with it for an entire weekend. Looks like symlinks will be my Saturday fun. Hahaha Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

What kind of joystick? What core? Do keyboard controls work. Try to be more specific. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Awesome! And, I actually like the color of the room. You say you back up your emu saves to google drive? Any chance you can point me to some more info about how to do this? Things you need: Ottoman Plush blanky for the couch. Akira Mural (But you're on that) Adorable cat (check) Some gaming slippers that never leave that room. Super Metroid (Samus) Snuggie (If one exists) A stack of nintendo power magazines Soda dispenser.

I'm glad you got it working. Was just remembering I had a similar problem a while ago and that was the culprit. Happy gaming. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

It might not be a bug. If you just delete an entire system of games I think it deletes the platform but not the games which may still show up if you filter by all. If you delete them again there, should be no problem Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Rocketlauncher + xpadder. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Need more info. What are the file extensions of your roms? Are they zipped? What emulators are you trying to use? Do the roms work in the emulator outside of launchbox? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

When there is an update, launchbox will prompt you upon opening to update. Some people back their stuff up every update. I haven't, and never had any problems. And yep, that should do it.

Dowload the latest nightly and just copy/paste it in your ra directory. The download itself shouldn't include folders etc so it won't override any user settings. There's also an automatic updater on the RA forums. I think it's called Stelle Updater. That works best. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Yep, that's correct.

Yep, the very same one. Also the same one from Rocketlauncher, steam, xbox live and psn. I didn't even consider trying dolphin on it, but you've inspired me.

The order doesn't matter. If you want to know how I did it (I have a dedictibled SSD for just launchbox/rocketlauncher). I changed the SSD drive letter to L: (For Launchbox) and no it doesn't matter what letter you choose. It actually didn't for HyperSpin, but on a very older version I think some settings files (that you could change) just defaulted to C: on setup. No biggie. I installed the latest version of launchbox in L:/LaunchBox and opened it once. (I always open everything once in case it needs to generate any inis or something) I installed Rocketlauncher in L:/Launchbox/RocketLauncher (Created this folder) I installed my emulators in L:/Launchbox/RocketLauncher/Global Emulators (Created this folder) I personally have all my roms on an external drive I lettered R: for roms. Since they are going to be on the same drive for you, I recommend saving your games in Launchbox/Games/[system name] You don't have to create any of these folders. When you import your first set of games, launchbox will give you the option to move them automatically and create the directory for you. Import snes games and set up rocketlauncher as your emulator. (you won't ever need to set up anything else an emulator) I think LaunchBox is designed to work with RL in this regard, and just note that Launchbox wants to spell Rocket Launcher with a space. It's important that you get this part right because if you do RL and Launchbox will talk to each other without your intervention. When you import games in LB, they will show up in Rocketlauncher already imported. Install your emulator, set it up in Rocketlauncher, test and if it works in RL, it will also work in LB. Let me know if you have any more questions about how to set up Rocketlauncher.

Yes, they'll be updated. Launchbox is just going to refer to whatever exe you tell it to. Edit: As DOS pointed out, this is only true if you're updating by overwriting your existing exe. If you're making different installs for different versions you'll have to manually point launchbox to the new exe each time.

Meanwhile I can barely get n64 to run on my shield tablet. It works but the framerate/audio is bad. Same with DS. I sort of gave up. Are the specs different on the shield TV, or am I doing something wrong?

Yeah mednefen is definitely preferred. You can change the plug in settings for espxe to your native desktop resolution, for what it's worth. Should fix that. Let me know how it turns out. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

I'm assuming you checked under information and the bios reads as present? I don't recall exactly. Search mednefen libretto etc. In Google and there will be an info page to explain it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

If you haven't changed it, it should be in your system folder. For future reference, the second tier menu, at the bottom, there's an option called directory that will let you change the paths. Espxe should need the bios. But mednefen is notoriously picky. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Yep. Or it could be that the path to the bios files got altered if you're not keeping up with your configs. Just to confirm me, load core, then go to information, then core information and confirm the bios are present. If they are, you might got some wonky ones. If not, you need to set the path.

Are you using rocketlauncher? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

Yes, it does. Do you have the bios files in the system folder? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
