with the digital world buildings in motion? That's City Hunter I'm pretty sure.

I've never voted on a poll, but I would if I knew all the core features of RL were going to Be on there.

Same for me @Chris Kant. Hell id even pay for a bonus premium license if it would aid in the quest for total FE domination. The last step is to get those features into bigbox.

Yes I've had to do that before for a few games. Copy and paste the rom file, then rename it to the version inside that you want.

I actually didn't have it happen very often on way early builds. But more on recent builds, so who knows.

That's a good workaround, but I feel like at this stage in the game, a front end as good as launchbox should just get its focus back without having to use a workaround. I'm using RL as well so maybe they are having a hard time communicating to each other and that might need some more attention

There's another thread about focus, but taskbar related. I don't know what to do about this, but I've had focus problems since day one. Except mine is always the taskbar showing up and staying visible even when I do click back into big box.

I would suggest movingly to mednafen. This all seems like so much fiddling around when you can just load it with mednafen and move on with your life lol. I'm sure it's only going to get better as time goes on.

I tried putting this dll in the teknoparrot folder but still get the direct 3D error. Crappy. Windowed is waaaay to small to play.

It only looks bad as a product of its time. Is there anything accompanying it that might give some context? It may be official promotional material, but it Doesn't really show much.

I would welcome the inclusion of the key features of RL that keep most of us current users around. As soon as LB/BB incorporates Fade, Pause menu (and all the tabs within it), bezels (because not all of us use Retroarch), and the keymapping feature per-game, then i'm ready to ditch it. That's the only reason I'm still using it.

There is also a controller section to show your image in the PAUSE feature of rocketlauncher. Might be worth looking into.

This would also be great for trimming down your romsets. I know for my arcade platform I almost always go into the playlists because those are more focused. Going through the main platform is just too much. There becomes so much wasted space with that big of a set.

Yup happens to me all the time. Sometimes I have to alt tab it, other times it works fine , but the taskbar is still there , just staring at me.

Launchbox doesn't have a bezel feature,.....yet. I'm sure someday it will be done. Funny thing is, i have never specifically wanted to use a new feature of LB/BB since Jason first added the clear logo wheel style to it wayyy back. Well, that and having a startup video. All I've ever needed as a new feature is bezels, fades, and keymapping profile launching per game. But it's not that hard to get these up and running in RL, especially if someone else has already gone through the trouble to make the ini file And included it.

So just having the mt32 as your soundcard wouldn't necessarily make a game sound any better if it wasn't designed to specifically take advantage of it? I was hoping it would sort of translate it all to bring your base level sound up to higher quality. I wonder if there's a list of compatible games. I'm betting keen and stuff doesn't take advantage of it lol.

Yeah I'd rather stick with dfend since it takes care of the confs for you, and I'm used to it. Does this mint/mt-32 stuff apply to every dos game you run with those settings? Or are just certain games able to take advantage of it?

I jus mean If you have wired controllers plugged in and map them to an emulator. Then when you turn the wireless one on and off for another emulator, does it Mess up the windows controller order so that when you go back to the emulator with the wired controller, the mapping no longer works since the order got shifted around when the wireless was on and off.

I'd stil love to know if the 8bitdo controllers knock other wired controllers off their spot in the id line when they are turned off and on again. I'd love to get one , but need someone's experience first so I don't have a useless controller if it knocks the others around. That's why I've kept to all wired thus far.

It would be the gameplay video sort of like vikings video where it is baked into the Television with super nintendo in front of it. So I think you could do it for each game's cabinet if the gameplay video was baked into that high res shot. Certainly an undertaking, but ever since I found the realistic arcade bezels that john merrit and orion's angel has put out i've been wanting better representation. That sort of "upped the game" so to speak.

I know it's not going to be tackled soon, but we can always hope. It's a natural progression in the front-end world. It's only a matter of time. Just because it's always been done by RL doesn't mean it will never be done by a FE in the future ? You have already blown the other stuff out of the water in my opinion, in such a short time. so I have faith in you.

Wow, I only have like 8 games on steam. I only use steam if there's no other way to get a game.

I think that even if it's impossible to overlay on every game out there, perhaps a percentage would be better than nothing? I know even RL might run into a problem every now and then, but my success with their menu overlaying on top of a game has always been in the majority, with a game crash or problem being in the minority. I think it's worth being open to, and not just scrapping because it's impossible for ALL instances. Many things are impossible to account for every scenario and every game, we might not even have launchbox if that sort of concern was payed attention to. ?

Someday maybe there will be nice high res photographs of the actual arcade cabinet front view. Now that would really complete the look. Its always ircked me a bit how the arcade stuff always has to use fake looking cab assets that are the same for every game. At least this has marquees though. I like this look a lot. If you teamed a real cab overlay for the gameplay vid with the realistic bezels for mame, oh man what a nice combo that would be.
