  1. Launchbox is not creating a new settings xml in data folder when being deleted and restarting Launchbox.
  2. I just tried relaunching Launchbox without the settings xml file in the data folder in launchbox and it didnt recreate it. I don't know what to do.
  3. Can I ask something? Does the Settings xml file in the data folder get recreated by Launchbox if deleted if you restart Launchbox?
  4. Thank you for that confirmation but it didn't work for me.
  5. maybe im dumb. I don't know. I've got a lot going on in my life so many things are frustrating me honestly. I erased the settings xml in data and replaced it with the backup in backup folder. I went to copy the backup to the data folder and it just copied it so I erased the old xml settings file in data and renamed the settings file from the backup to settings. Is that correct?
  6. I apologize for being so angry but I put a lot of work into this and to see it go down the drain. I was gonna do retro game reviews on youtube with this launchbox and now can't. I'm sorry forum folks but I'm mad and shouldn't take it out on you guys but I don't know what to do.
  7. I give up. It's not fixed. I want my money back you ripoffs!
  8. I just deleted the settings .xml file in data folder and launchbox did not recreate it when I restarted it again. I'm pissed off. This is bs.
  9. I just did that and it doesn't work. I want my money back. This thing is garbage.
  10. Is this what you're talking about? Settings_2019-11-01_21-58-43.xml
  11. I see a Big Box settings in Backups. Here it is. I'm mad this happened really. BigBoxSettings_2019-06-01_18-56-36.xml
  12. I am confused. Arcade_2019-04-01_07-46-09.xml
  13. It appears that your Launchbox\Data\Settings .xml file is corrupt; Launchbox can't continue. Please try restoring a backup of the file from the Backups folder inside of your Launchbox folder. Root element is missing. This didn't occur after no update. I'm running Windows 7 Professional x64 Service Pack 1.
  14. When I looked in updates folder in Launchbox it says 9.9. I'm using mame0168b. This version of mame launches outside of Launchbox.
  15. I have the problem of Mame not launching in Launchbox. The other systems I have to reconfigure the rom paths and emulator paths. The recent update on Launchbox was Nov 1 2019 it was 10.6.
  16. fsuae emulator is better than winuae my friend. its portable as well and user friendly. Youtube provides a long almost hour video of how to configure and manipulate the fsuae emulator. i highly suggest studying that video because the fsuae emulator's config files that you make for your games start right up with launchbox.
  17. Are you using standalone emulators for each platform or retroarch which is a multi system emulator?. Retroarch is set up differently. Theres plenty of youtube material on youtube about that subject
  18. This is retrogamer. I'm running a Windows 7 Professional dell optiplex 990 with an intel 7 quad core processor thats second generation. I have attached this strange error that is occuring often in Big Box and it says you have been notified anyway but these attachments could be useful. I have recently updated Launchbox and did a disk clone from a smaller ssd drive to a larger one and those 2 operations went smooth as butter.
  19. hundreds of hrs of work? oh man. its taking me forever to get my 50 mame roms all to my liking. im not about to download some massive mame rom set cuz itll take 6 mths to log it all in. no way jose!
  20. commandline just stresses me out. im a lazy ui guy. the frontend makes me go oh yeah its not the eighties again when i really sucked at games and lost my ass in quarters! arcades and bars can thank me.
  21. hey at least its not like the old days of the early eighties when atari had cool looking covers and third grader graphics!
  22. Hi i'm George Lensgraf. My user account is corrupted on my pc and no my computer will not let me make a new one for some reason. I'm very pissed off about this since I cant download another launchbox on my computer because it keeps saying it cant make a directory error. I'm sure you cant download another launchbox so I'm screwed apparently. Im known as retrogamer on this forum. My email is georgelensgraf@mail.com so theres my story.
  23. Mute64 said Just been on a 3week holiday and i took my Portable Arcade machine with me, everything seemed to work very well appart from the odd hick up when an internet connection was required. I now have a LAN this weekend that hosts over 800 like minded pc gamers, hopefully i can draw some attention to my setup and get some new members interested or to join/purchase LaunchBox. Funn y u speak of mini arcade. i remember the battery powered little arcade cabinet of frogger i lugged around in the 80's.
  24. Mute64 said Hello fellow LaunchBox users. Yesterday i spent a good 3 hours writing about my experiences with emulation and front ends over the last decade or more .... unfortunately i wrote this up on my phone and i mistakenly deleted my write up before posting it :( so today i thought i would share a quicker style write up/video of my Bigbox/Kodi/SteamBig Piture setup via pictures and a video, and maybe further down the line i will discuss my previous issues, workarounds, emulation setups, front-ends experiences and just general stuff like my future projects and what not. While there is still a few issues here and there the setup is pretty much 100% usable with a controller ( with the help of xpadder of course ) Here are some Photos of the PC: http://imgur.com/a/90WW9 http://imgur.com/a/KvVUw Here is a video of the Software: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qbpSJGkaDU&feature=youtu.be Here is a future project: http://imgur.com/a/atWPN Mute64 said Hello fellow LaunchBox users.
