Pretty much exact same thing happened to me yesterday. I'm just avoiding deleting roms from playlists until there is a specific feature added and noted.

Hi All, Checking to see if anyone has set up some cool XML files they are willing to share. I have created 3 so far: Mortal Kombat Collection Street Fighter Collection Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Collection MK and TMNT are a combination of console and arcade games where SF is just the arcade versions (for now). I know Jason is going to build out the "Capcom Classics" and XMLs like that for us, but has anyone done that manually et and are willing to share? I have attached my XML files here - enjoy... Mortal Kombat Collection.xml Street Fighter Collection.xml Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Collection.xml

Got it, thank you!

I did.

Happened again. I opened LB to update to beta 2 and it's been sitting on this screen for 40 minutes.

I had to run a few errands so I left it alone. Took about 2 hours but eventually worked itself out. Still not sure how to remove a game from a playlist.

LB froze and when I rebooted I get "populating playlists" for an hour now. I've tried a few times. Also I deleted a game from within a playlist and it was removed from LaunchBox altogether, not just the playlist. But now I'm hoping my LB instance isn't effed since it won't load past this message.

So far the playlist feature is working really well for me. My only question for now is how do i remove a game from a playlist?

Hi All, The new playlist feature is AMAZING! Are we able to add a new platform category? I want to add one called playlist so I can have them grouped and still have a complete view. For example, I created a Ninja Turtle playlist and it has games from many different consoles and arcades, so grouping it under arcade isn't accurate. Thanks in advance!

Good question. I've imported a new system and used the merge tool. This happened once before the merge tool was implemented. Also I haven't touched the platforms which lost the description in any way.

It would also work if you could keep both. In the City Hunter or Critical Zone themes it would be cool to see the theme video in the game list view then the gameplay video in the specific game view. So an option to use 1 or both would be perfect because some of the theme videos are beautiful but cover up the gameplay. Which is why the next screen having gameplay would be ideal.

Hi Guys, This isn't a huge issue but the last few betas (not every one) seems to randomly remove the platform description of some of my platforms. It is random platforms that it happens too. Earlier in the week it was game boy and game boy color. Yesterday was neo geo pocket and pocket color. Hope this is helpful

Thank you for this, I checked emumovies and didn't see anything for the X68000 but this wasn't in a category. Thanks again!

Hi All, I followed Brad's tutorial and got it up and running. Only issue is that there is not Platform Video so I have nothing in Big Box. Anyone have a video I can use? Thank you !

So if the controllers are a mess in the RA core, is there a different emulator that I can use?

I just did! Thank you very much - I have it working well in LaunchBox now. One question though - I use RocketLauncher because I use fades, bezels and universal pause. I am trying to get this set up through rocketlauncher but the issue is that RL needs a "rom extension". The files that are created with the export tool have no extension at all. Any idea how i can work around this? can i add extensions to those files? Thanks again!

Thank you, please let me know if/when you figure it out.

Hahahaha so custom controller settings for this emulator?

Hi All, I have the Magnavox Odyssey 2 loading with the O2EM core in RetroArch. The controllers don't seem to be working properly. Anyone else have this issue? My controllers work out of the box with pretty much all other RA cores.

Hi All, Does anyone have a way to clean up how Amiga looks in LaunchBox? Basically I have 2600 roms and the titles in LB are the same as the rom name - i.e. "3DPool v1.2 0621". Many titles have several different versions. Is there a way to get LaunchBox to merge them or exclude some (similar to when importing MAME)? Or is the only thing I can do is manually go through and remove the duplicate roms that I do not want? Thank you!

This is kindof messy. I set up a ninja turtle series and there was already 100 random series. That's definitely not manageable if i am trying to create custom platforms and wheels. Also would the series show up along side the platforms or is it an either/or situation? LaunchBox / BigBox is the most versatile front end out there and I think an easy way to tag roms to a custom platform would really go a long way to "steal" people from other front ends. I left Hyperspin because of the complication, but I do miss how easy it was to use XML files to create whatever you wanted or use other people's XML files as well.

Thank you, would the series show up in BigBox like a platform? That is my ultimate goal is to have these separate wheels and platforms in BigBox

Hi All, I'm wondering the best way to have the same game in multiple platforms. I'm asking because I am putting together custom platforms. I am currently doing a TMNT platform with all of the ninja turtle games. There are 2 arcade games a few NES, a few GameCube, etc.. What is the best way to set it up so these games exist in their original platform AND the custom one? If I manually add each one, is there a way to scrape a single ROM with a specific platform? if not, i will need to find every single piece of media for the individual games as well and move them over one by one. Any tips are appreciated!

Got it to work, must've been a bad romset because i grabbed a new one and no issues. Thank you. What about ST-V? What are you using for that?

I haven't even imported to LB yet since I cannot get it to work directly. Right now I am only working in RA and when i load a game its just a black screen and no actual game is shown or heard. Maybe i will zip a few roms and see what happens.
