CTRL-ALT-DEFEAT

Just a showcase of my Big Box setup

MSU-1 Media View File Attached are boxes and clear logos for MSU-1 enhanced games from my collection. I also included an MP3 for each game that I converted from the PCMs, as well as a platform logo (in case you are using a separate platform category for these, like me).

Nintendo Super Famicom View File Attached is box art and clear logos for the Super Famicom games I have in my collection. Some of this is scrapable, but not all of it is (can't recall which ones are or aren't), so I've packaged up everything I have since I know some of these I had to dig for or make logos for. The archive includes box art and logos for: Akumajō Dracula Bahamut Lagoon Battle Zeque Den Dragon Quest I.II Dragon Quest III: Soshite Densetsu e... Dragon Quest V: Tenkuu no Hanayome Dragon Quest VI: Maboroshi no Daichi Final Fantasy V Front Mission Front Mission: Gun Hazard Kishin Douji Zenki: Denei Raibu Majyūō Rendering Ranger R2 Return of Double Dragon Rockman & Forte Seiken Densetsu 3 Star Ocean Super Metroid Tales of Phantasia Ys IV: Mask of the Sun Ys V: Ushinawareta Suna no Miyako Kefin Submitter CTRL-ALT-DEFEAT Submitted 12/19/16 Category Game Media

My apologies, replace the word "copy" with whatever your .BAT file is named. i.e., test.bat > log.txt

The error would be in the CMD prompt itself, so you'd have to keep it open and scroll through it. Try this, edit the .BAT, remove the pause line and add this instead: copy > log.txt Run the batch file. It should output a file called log.txt in the same location as the .BAT file. This text file should contain any possible issues, so copy and paste whatever is in it here.

Can you put a pause into the .BAT and see if it gives an error? If you don't know how to do that, just edit the .BAT, scroll to the bottom, type the word pause as it's own line and then save it. Run the .BAT and it will not close the CMD window until a key is pressed, so you can see if it reports a bad syntax or some other such issue with the script.

If your DirectX is already up-to-date, you can ignore it. Chances are good you are already up-to-date anyway if you play a lot of current PC games as the installers always include the DirectX End-User Runtime for whatever version of DirectX the game uses (80% of the time DX9). I'm not absolutely certain about this, but I don't think LB/BB uses DirectX for anything other than it's Xinput/DInput APIs anyway and I'm pretty sure it's using DX9, which hasn't been updated since 2008 (when Xinput and XAudio2 were added, if I remember right), but I could be wrong on the version. You could re-install the LB update again or just download the DirectX End-User Web Installer directly from Microsoft, if you just want peace of mind about it. The error was likely caused, as you figured, by not accepting at the UAC pop-up.

Yep, I had the same deal. Must be how it is querying against EmuMovies. I've had to go and double check the FTP for other media for various platforms simply because things on the FTP are named differently than how I have them named in my collections. Example: For A Link to the Past, I have it as "The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past" and the EmuMovies FTP has it as "Legend of Zelda, The - A Link to the Past" for videos/music/etc. Hasn't really bugged me, but I did notice the same thing for GBC.

Wow man. I hope you aren't considering tackling the whole SNES library, :D. Great work on these! Much appreciated!

You can technically do this, yes, but it is a huge undertaking if you have lots of games and, as far as I can figure, it wouldn't be possible to use LB/BB as the launcher for the ROMs. You would need to convert the ROMs to a proper EXE and add it into Steam. To do this (or at least the way I did it) was by making a shortcut to the emulator, in the shortcut adding the full path to the rom/iso (and possibly other command line options), making a VBS file that points to the shortcut and then using iExpress (it's built into Windows, so just search it on your PC; it's a basic installer building utility) to convert the VBS to an EXE (you just uncheck/don't use any of the installer specific options; make sure you point to the cscript.exe that is in Windows\System32) and then add that into Steam. This will only work if you are using Steam as the launcher though; doing this and still using LB/BB as the launcher probably won't work, unless someone knows another way. You could add Steam as the emulator, but it will only open the Steam UI and you'd still have to launch your games from it. Adding explorer.exe as an emulator won't work for non-Steam games either (this was how I use to import Steam games before the importer came along; explorer as the emu and Steam Shortcuts as the ROMs). I did this way back when I was just using Steam as a launcher for everything (ROMs, Origin, GOG, etc.) and the overlay worked with anything I added this way. So technically you can do it, but not sure about with LB/BB.

I updated the archive with a couple new items and cleaned up the Super Metroid Redesign logo and Black Mesa Box a bit more (noticed some lines and such that I somehow didn't notice yesterday). The new items are for Mario Kart R and Mario Adventure (boxes and logos). I will periodically update the thread below as I get more art for things that I add to my collection.

Are you just wanting clear logos? Some of the art in the zip is already a clear logo (Super Mario Bros. X and Super Mario RPG 2, for example). I can take a crack at what you're wanting; just checking if clear logo wheel art is what you after for these games

@Vlansix I would gladly up vote it. Just one problem.... where is it exactly? I tried searching the issue list on bitbucket, but didn't find anything.... unless I'm looking in the wrong place. ?

Hi - I just uploaded some mocked up box-art and clear logos to the Downloads page and I was wondering if they could be added to the DB for people to scrape for from within LB? Games like this don't have much, if anything, when you try and scrape for them, so figure it might help out a tiny bit. Not sure how to go about submitting the package for potential approval on it though. The link for what I submitted for downloading is below:

Thanks, man! Hopefully it will help some folks out. If nothing else, we will be adding assets for things you can't generally scrape for. Let me know which games you aren't recording for and, if I have them, I'll make some gameplay snaps of them (don't have any N64 hacks, myself). I'm going to inquire if this kind of thing could be added to the DB for scraping from within LB, too.

Here's the link to the downloads page for the box-art and clear logos. I have decided to re-record the videos I have, but will upload them as soon as I have them finished (likely over the weekend).

Hacks & Fan-Made Box-Art and Clear Logos View File Attached are some box art and clear logos that I use for my own personal collection. Some of these I mocked up myself since a lot of them just don't exist really anywhere and some were just edited/modified and others are just ones that I downloaded (Super Metroid Eris being one of those). In any case I don't take any credit for any of them since none are 100% original work by me. I am by no means a professional and I wish I could re-draw the logos that aren't high res, but I don't have those kinds of skills. I am also being very careful not to step on the toes of people that have already submitted artwork here, so if you are looking for box-art/logos for: AM2R Super Mario Omega Super Mario Land 3 Castlevania II: Simon's Quest Revamped Zelda: The Legend of Link Hyper Metroid The Legend of Zelda DX None of these are included (unless I make my own variants on them) and can be downloaded from the site, if you need those (it's what I am using for those games).

That would work; probably a good idea to have some variety. I have a few that I already recorded myself for the background video. I'll be including the ones I have with the box art and clear logos that I'll be uploading later tonight, though I should probably re-record them, so I might do that before uploading any videos. @CriticalCid @BakerMan What kind of stuff are you guys looking for as far as inspirational material to add this category to your list of potential platform videos?

I will actually be done sooner than I thought. I just need to re-size and clean up a few of the logos and I will be ready to upload; which will be tomorrow night.

I'm actually working on getting all of that together to share it. Will take a couple of days to finish and tweak what I have, but I will upload a bundle to the site and put a link here by the weekend.
