Acidstorm-_-_

looks like i will setup again tonight....

Please Help! Came back from the Denstist and cold need some Game now ;-)

Names Match, Command lines Correct, Default Emulator Box Checked....

will i ever come to play.... last week got this problem when i installed kodi and did come into Suspend mode accidently....no boot up for days untill i found out to remove the bios battery... then got back from holiday and was excited today found out after the update all the Covers now been Downloaded over night after the gamesDB not functioning. then need to config some cores i have'nt set in the list while importing and just chose WinUAE, set default core for every plattform in RETROARCH and added command lines for missing Cores. same for Amiga WinUAE...working fine with Amiga Games!!! BUT! now all other platforms do open with WinUAE only Dreamcast games which i added today and set the emu to NullDC on Import do Launch correct! i deleted all the non amiga plattforms in WinUAE but no luck...then i deleted the WinUAE emu completley from launchbox, no luck, even after adding it back now the Amiga games also dont work, it says: emulator no longer exists, edit the game?....that's 20 000 games to edit??? wonder why does this Launchbox are so crackling...do i have to reinstall it again? Can't believe it!

same here.... takes long time and spitts out error messages.. i switched localdb and thegamesdb off and only use wikipedia for now, it' fast again and i will update the metadata later overnight ....and looks like Emumovies are down too

hi! i was importing my Amiga Demos and thought it whould be Nice to have any covers or screenshots on it... i got this Demobase from Gamebase but it won't run, there i got lots of Screenshots i cold import to Launchbox but the demos are in a special Gamebase Format and my collection titled diffrent... when there whould be a DemoDB like thegamedb that whould be a dream! Also it whould be sooo nice to get all My Music CD's into Launchbox and Finally Movies! since there are lots of music and movie databases... Any Chance the future will bring these Features? Greetings!

SentaiBrad said Yea removing a platform doesn't remove the games on purpose. Also, if you want to import duplicates (which is fine), check the import duplicates option. I also suggest users to not bulk rename anything in ( ). It is better to have the E, U and J identifiers. If I recall there is a ticket in our BitBucket (if there isn't I might create it, but I could of sworn I seen it before) that the importer will see (USA) or (Japan) or (E) or (J) etc, and identify the games accordingly. One of the main reasons this hasn't been implemented already is because it will bog down the importer with more and more logic. However, if enough users want it then it will seriously get considered. thought that...removing year and region could affect the importer search for metadata.

ok thanx! Yeah setting up Launchbox isn't that easy i looked in the youtube videos :-D importing now.... everything looks fine, CPS1 CPS22 Vectrex Neo Geo Atari Jaguar (but not 1 cover this time!?) Now on PC Engine, needs some more time... What whould be nice is a Core List to Enter the .dll at the Platforms....some cores need to be entered manualy and the Libreto/Retroarch Wiki is not comfortable to read Greetings

i deleted the platform on Manage platforms....with Ctrl A you mean chose them on the frontend and delete? i think that is also the "emumovies problem"...i just looked like, but was because i just deleted the platforms ... thanx for help!

added C64 Platform and wanna make a second called C64 II, but it won't import games that where already importet on C64.... so i delete C64 and wanna just import C64 II..... but it looks like there is no way importing it again without reinstall the whole programm... that sucks, you can't even import a Favorite Game folder and have to browse the endless list... or you spend hours picking everything out of 7000 games???

SentaiBrad said Go in to the options and see if the Beta Update box is checked. If it's not, check it and restart. as i testet it last night befor the new install: i have to say i still got the error: Can't import any Games after re-used the emumovies function First i did add a folder with 4000 Amiga games but was missing a lot of games after import, then i add another collection with 7300 C64 games to reach the limit.....it .just added 6000 or so after that i added few more systems, still working but curious on NeoGeo it do only add the metal3jp.zip name and no cover. then after a while i says on every import 0 Games Added, even deleting the collections did not help,Beta ON. Good i have checked befor did the Finall install ;-)

hi! Finally got my Collection Cleaned and Ready for a new install... 1G 1R Tutorial for any System: Found a Fast and Save way to get 1Game 1Rom out of these endless Folders: To make it short: i just pre-sort a folder into the regions E,US,JP etc, after that i run a programm called Bulk Rename Utillity to remove everything after the game title that starts after "(".....then removing all the "(" and trim the last space after the title: the final change whould be: Afterburner.adf and because you get a few files with the same exact name now, you can make it to delete all but keep 1! Of course it can't chose automaticly the best Version but you will end up with a 1G1R Game Collection, what you have to do first is make a Backup of your Collection if you need to Replace a Game later AND you need to search for ALL NON Disk 1/01/A and save them in a Folder because you Need them Unchanged in there name to find later..... ...now i whould Backup the Renamed Games again and Adding the US,JP or any other Folder i got Divided at the beginning but also Renamed: that way you can only add Games that are missing from US to the EU, just skip the ones you got already in EU Version and so on with Japan etc........ Now you can Check for last Duplicates wit DupeGuru a programm where you can set the filter to 99% or less to find games that match not 100% --- Now you can add the Folder to your Launchbox and getting all 1 Game Collection!!!

i't s checked...but i can try one time! Because i decieded to Oganize My Collection Clean befor importing, Sort out all Bios,Proto,Beta,REV,Alt,Korea,Brazil etc, So i only have the Euro/USA games to import and Non Doubles, can't wait to see a more complete cover display in LaunchBox .-) And i got even a Solution to import all Amiga Games that have more than 1 Disk: I seperate all Disk 2-xx and Disk B-x and Disk0 with the Search function, put them in a Folder Called "Disk 2" of course you have to check the Disk2 Folder again for Disk1 Files (Some Games with nummber 2 and Disk1 in the text mostly) it took 30minutes to sort 4500 files and finally reduced to 2500 files in a Folder where every File is 1 Game and no duplicates! So i can now import just that folder and got it all in clean....if i need disk2 or so i just can open it in the other folder or add disk to in applications at a induvidual Game! Same Technique you can make with other Systems: If you Need Disk 2 in a same folder u can just Backup the Disk1 folder and Merge Disk1 and Disk2 folder after importing just the Disk1 folder.....so you can go Import anytime new if needed without the work again! Hope this Trick is Bugfree :-) well still not tested all...ben on for over 3 weeks now :-) since Rebooted my Amiga and GB's coming in day & night :-D Have a Nice Day!

SentaiBrad said The daily limit is something we can't fix, but the bug is fixed by updating to the Beta. Yea, I am going to create that FAQ. If anyone see's this and wants something added to it, please let me know. I will start compiling it. i think i have updated to the beta on the second install but anyway cold not add games again....since then i select None at emumovies...

DOS76 said I'm glad you did this way you could teach me how to move stuff around without having to re-import everything again. Also maybe there could be and FAQ added to keep these questions from being asked over and over again. a FAQ whould be great.... as i told in the first post, this Emumovies bug (reach daily limit and won't add games anymore) toke my a time to find out and forced me to reinstall. Greetings!
