@DOS76 I just wanted to send a note of thanks as your advice saved the day (and weekend!!) as my little guy has been itching to play some games. Thank you!!!

So for the past week or so, LB has not been opening or running for me. I double click on the desktop icon and the blue circle spins for a couple secs and then nothing. It does not do anything. The same goes for BigBox. I thought maybe it has to do with Windows update 1709, but all other items I run on the comp work. I thought maybe it has to do with the latest update from LB. Anyone else experiencing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am running LB and roms off an external hard drive. I had a previous version of LB on another external and it ran fine. I am at a loss.

Well I have to say that this is absolutely disappointing. With RSS gone and now a different direction on the tutorials, I have to say that I am really bummed as to how things have changed in LB-land.
-
I had the same problem and I had to download RA 1.4.1 and it worked fine for me. RA 1.5.0 would not launch the system.

Brad, it is possible to have music for just the platform? So the same song for when NES is showing or a different song for Sega Genesis? It would be great to have the option to have one song playing for each platform. Thanks for the info again.
-
I see on the lower right of LB there are buttons to play music and text which states something like "no music selected." Is it possible to add music to LB so that it starts when LB is opened? If so, any direction on how to set that up would be greatly appreciated. I see it each time I open LB, but I don't recall seeing anything about it in tutorials. I appreciate any help.
-
Well I figured out the issue. O2 did not open for me in RA 1.5.0, but if you use RA 1.4.1, it launches right up. So it is something in RA 1.5.0. Thank you to all who responded.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong, but I follow the tutorial to a T and I cannot launch the games from LB or from RA. I have tried this:
- I am using the latest stable version of RA.
- I have tried bios from multiple versions. All named (renamed) to O2ROM.BIN All put in the system folder of RA.
- I have tried using the nightly build of RA thinking it may be different.
- I have tried roms in .zip format from multiple sources thinking I may have had a bad dump.
- I have tried RA which I have emulating many systems, I have tried a fresh download of RA with only OEM2 as the core.
If I try launching OEM2 from RA, once I get to launching, it says that they wasn't any content. It is the same message as when I tried to launch it without O2ROM.BIN bios in the system folder. I would have to think it is the bios, but I have tried 3 different source bios all renamed to O2ROM.BIN
I am at a loss of what to do. The only thing I have not tried is using OEM2 as a standalone.
Any help would be appreciated. Cheers.

I have the same problem only mine is a 17 sec video and it is playing 3 times and part of the 4th loop. I hope this changes soon. I like the start up video, but not 3x much!!!!

Spycat, I just wanted to thank you for your help on getting the BBC Micro to launch in LB. I imported them and it worked perfectly. I still am lost on the other Acorn emulators, but oh well. Thank you for your time and help.
-
I appreciate your help good sir. After work today, I will be importing and trying it.

Quick (hopefully) question,
I have the BeebEm emulator and roms. I have learned how to start BBC roms through the BeebEm (File, load disk 0, then press shift and F12) and the game will start. Is it possible to have LB autostart (handle the shift+F12) for me when I click on a game to launch it? If so, how can I do that? I appreciate any help.
-
Well, good idea. Should have thought of it. No, they were not MAME roms, so I found some and now will set it up. Thanks for the good question. Cheers.
-
I see that MAME is recommended for emulating Bally Astrocade. Can I please get some help in how to set it up? I have my roms in zip format, I have the bios in my Bally rom folder, I have Bally in my MAME emulator assoc platform, yet when I click a game, it does not start. Any help is appreciated. Cheers.

Yet again Jedi Master, you are the man!! Thank you for the prompt response and detailed help. The handheld roms and SNES Hacks are loaded and playable. You have helped me before and I greatly appreciate it. You did a great job on the 2 Japanese systems (8801 and 9800), is there any diff with FM Towns emulating? Same Neo Kobe emulator pack, load games and go?
-
Hey guys, I have many handheld roms in .exe format which I would like to get into LB. Any help in a step-by-step process would be greatly appreciated. They are games like Game and Watch games, but all are in .exe format, so they are not in need to be emulated. Cheers.
-
I played with it and it is running like a charm now. I just have to get Naomi and Taito Type X to run now. I have to rewatch the tutorials.
-
Yes. I guess I playing with it to get it connected. Runs well with RA in SNES, NES, etc. Not sure on this. I appreciate your time though.
-
You are correct. I typed in the wrong extension. I do have those extension roms. So I tried something different. It did load, but I cannot connect my XBox controller to the game so that it controls it. ETA Prime made it seem easy. Maybe I am missing something. I can get it running with my keyboard, but that is it right now.
-
I watched the tutorial, followed the directions to the T, yet when RA launches, it only shows the console and the game is unable to be played. It actually looks like a picture. I have tried a number of things, but I cannot get the game to launch. I have the Game and Watch roms in .exe files, those play, but I am unsure on how to load them in LB. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I had a hard time finding the Game and Watch roms in .mgw format. Any help there would be great in case I got a bad dump.
-
So I am at a loss now. I have watched the tutorial numerous times (and I will say that I am an avid tutorial watcher and love them), but for some reason the Turbografx CD is one which is not working for me. This is what I have going on:
- Updated/Downloaded the nightly RA. Put the syscard3.pce into the RA system folder.
- I updated the PCE Fast core in RA.
- Extracted roms into folder.
- I opened RA, loaded PCE Fast core. Then went to load content (rom .cue) and RA had a screen which said "no item" or something like that.
I have only tried it in RA, not loaded into LB yet. Am I missing something?

With Dolphin 5.0 out now, can someone help me with how to update Dolphin, yet not lose my settings and saves from Dolphin 4.0? I am hoping that I can update/transfer like in Retroarch. Can someone offer some step-by-step advice if this is possible? Cheers,
MAME Controller setting saving
in Troubleshooting
Posted
I am hoping someone can help me. I have read a bunch of topic threads, but I am still struggling with my issue. I am running MAME .182 and I cannot get my XBox controller settings to save. I go into MAME and set it up and then save the configuration, but as soon as I exit MAME, it goes away and I have to set up the controller settings each time I want to play a MAME game. I have read that I need to open properties on mame.ini and check read-only and so on, which I have tried, but I may have messed it up. Can anyone help me with what my properties or proper way to go about setting up the controller configs and then how to save it? I would appreciate any help. Struggling here!!
