    MAME and FinalBurn Neo are currently handled under the Arcade platform during import. The MAME/FinalBurn Neo logic is used for arcade metadata and emulator/core support, but the importer does not currently expose separate “MAME” or “FinalBurn Neo” categories.

    So could you  maybe run the normal import for FinalBurn under arcade fully, separately, and then after that is done and scraped, unselect it as being a child of arcade?  then it would be in the main menu?

    I'm having the same issue. "Back" on my Xbox One controller is swapping back to Big Box, leaving the game running somewhere in the background. This seems to have been introduced in the latest beta update. I didn't have this problem before, and pressing Start+Select was the only way to bring up the Big Box UI while in-game. Setting "Back" to no input is not an option, as then I can't navigate Big Box.

    Ouch!  this is unfortunate.  I really hope they can address the bigbox controller navigation stuff.  That type of basic QOL feature should really be ironed out.  I'm still waiting for the ability to assign big box navigation controls on a per-controller basis, instead of assigning a blanket mapping to all controllers.  I think it's been a little over 5 years since my bitbucket post for it, which was marked a duplicate of a bitbucket post from 2016!.  I'd even donate to a crowdfunding account specifically for this big box controller stuff.

    This is fun. Editing anything has become a complete crapshoot. My cabinet project is delayed indefinitely because every time I try to make a configuration change, it crashes. There are brief moments when it seems to work, but after a few minutes, the next time I try to adjust a setting, it fails again. $80 folks. 2026.

    what settings are you trying to adjust?

    I gave up and moved onto playnite.  The UI is more impressive in my opinion also and customizing everything to be like big box is possible also in my limited use with it.  Shame, because I paid for Launchbox and it served me well for a while but I always had random memory issues, just not as frequently since the last update.  I tried a fresh install and rolling back but nothing helped..

    I guess I don't leave my bigbox running for a long time, so I've never ran into these things.  My experience has been great with launchbox over the last 12 years.  that playnite looked decent, but i dunno.

    its to the point i regret selecting to use it and i wonder why am i still paying for this fix it please it sucks bad i usually have to run it over night and its filled with errors 

    I've never had any issues with using emumovies to get my high quality video snaps.

  6. Here's what my Arcade Platform looks like.  Entire MAME import, with different playlists.  I think a lot of them were the auto-populated lists that Launchbox already had ready.  But I can't remember what that looked like when I created them, since it was so long ago.  A few I added myself, Like Horizontal, Vector, Arcade Hacks, and Vertical playlists.

  7. So, if you have images named properly, like "game name-01.png" to match what launchbox shows as the title,..then launchbox should automatically show them when you hit a refresh (F5) of the games.  I have almost exclusively custom images for my setup, and I routinely drag 'n drop images/sets of images that I've already named properly into the image folders and after a refresh they show up fine.

  8. This has already been a feature request in every possible forum (bitbucket, here, and the newer feedback area), for YEARS.  Please,...pleeeaaassseee give bigbox the ability to map PER-Controller navigation mappings for the various different controllers users might have plugged in.

    Mario's Cement Factory.

    Again - to note - I did do the whole G&W series back in 2021-22, but I really only had PowerPoint and a few other tools. I'm a lot better at Photoshop now, I have an upscaler, I'm vectorising assets where I can and I'm finding fonts / manipulating them to match the original artwork better....plus I'm mastering these at Width:7680 by XXXX.

    Will you be releasing a full pack of these?

  10. This is just wild.  We have enough phenomenal HQ cart, box, whatever else SETS made by the community.  I feel like LBDB (staff, or whomever) should just grab those sets, rename appropriately, and have those as the defaults and then lock it.  Option stuff can be added by the user after that, or given a choice: Default LBDB HQ set (community username contributor) , or Fanart cart random.

    Alright, I’ll take a look at it during the day. The easiest thing will probably be for me to just send you the animation directly. I’m not sure yet how I’ll send it, but I’ll find a way. I’ll simply send you the animation, you’ll just have to copy and paste it, and then you can set the timing however you want. I’ll show you how to do it.

    Were you able to find the spot for the selected game animations enter delay? or whatever it would be called lol.

  12. This type of game is what I wish someone could do to my characters and game idea I  have.  But it's so much fucking money to hire devs.  I love this style of game.  and schmups too.

    In Big Box themes, this kind of slowdown usually comes from three places in the XAML:

    BeginTime in a Storyboard
    Duration in a DoubleAnimation or OpacityAnimation
    – or a Delay / Binding linked to IsSelected or IsGameSelected.

    If you want, you can also send it to me on Discord as an attached file. If you have the CTC version of the view, I can tweak it in about three minutes and send it back to you.

    By the way, how did your little journey go? Did it help you with your views? :)

     

     

    no nothing productive came from the gpt journey lol.  I think it may have helped with the platform views, but the games view is still SLOW entrance of details.

    I can't send on discord because it pops up some file limit message about nitro.  So maybe you could just get the theme from here:  

    It's BAnnerBox 2.1
