Essentially what I'm doing is going through every game, one by one, curating a list of games that can be played in a competitive environment. So, I usually get together in a group of 4-8 friends at the weekend, and just hit random, and compete in whatever game comes up. As long as it has a competitive mode of some kind (easy enough with fighting games, sports games, racing etc) or a single player high-score or time trial mode. We'll usually get through 15-30 games a night, and build a leader board as we go (4 points for 1st place, 3 for 2nd etc). Yes, we're nerds, but we started this as a way to get together more after covid lockdowns ended and it's been great fun. I originally started doing it by downloading the complete sets for each system, but that was taking forever, because we'd end up skipping load of RPGs, or strategy games etc. So now I'm going through each game, and marking whether it fits into our 'RetroMania' collection or not. If I could filter the games database (website) by games that I haven't yet added to a collection, it would make it easier for me to see which games I haven't yet 'processed'. I realise this is all very niche and unlikely to be useful for anyone else, just thought it was worth asking!

Thanks for your reply, though I should have really been more clear that I was talking about when browsing through the games database on the website!

Is there any way I can filter the platform games lists to only show games that I've not added to a collection? Apologies if this isn't possible, it would just be very useful for a LaunchBox project I've been working on, and I've been adding every game to one of two collections. So it would be amazing if I could see which games I haven't sorted through yet.

Been waiting for a 'random game' function in Big Box for years, so this update is awesome! Thanks!

Bumping this to see if there could be more options added to how the wheelspin works? I have a playlist with over 3000 games, and the wheel doesn't get very far when spinning. Could the wheel start from a random position each time or something?

Would still love a 'random game' function in Big Box. Honestly seems pretty surprising there isn't one already, since it's a built-in feature of the regular LaunchBox. I've been using the Random Game Selector plugin by Grila, but that doesn't work well with all views unfortunately. And the attract mode wheelspin feature isn't exactly random either, from what I can see. Especially when randomizing from a list of over 3000 games.

Really love this theme, just one thing I can't work out. I love the clickable game details, but it doesn't show all the game details that I've selected in the LB settings (mainly Custom Fields, of which I have a few set up). Anything I can edit to have these details appear like they do in the default theme?

https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/details/8755 and https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/details/31190 are the same game. They have the same description, and one is listed as a clone of the other on http://adb.arcadeitalia.net/dettaglio_mame.php?game_name=mariner&back_games=800fath;&search_id=0 Can these be merged at all?

Hey, just checking this is the latest version of RetroArch I can get that has cg shader support added back in? Still think your shaders are the best available for the look I want. Have tried the usual CRT shaders that everyone talks about but these look so much better.

This might have already been asked, but I couldn't find anything. Is there a way to add links to Xbox Cloud Gaming games to Launchbox, via the Xbox App?

Zombeaver - I've been using your Netrunner shader for a while now, but I've just switched to the new Snow Crash shader, and it's amazing. Best shader set I've ever seen, so thanks for making these!
