  1. Dear all,

     

    I am now happily working and enjoying LB and BB and helping to moderate the GamesDB as well. I asked myself for awhile now how can I update my already imported Games in DB with the updates from the GamesDB like Artworks and Datafields?

    example: I have a clear logo in LB already, but now I uploaded a better version into the GamesDB and it is approved, the old one will get delete as well. How can I make sure to get the new one and the old one will delete?

    another example, I have the game imported and all the fields in LB are now as I need it, for example the Game Name. Now I see that a lot of the other fields are more accurate in the Games DB. How can I update this without overwrite my own works?

    is there a possibility (maybe as a new feature) to protect fields and or artworks so they will not overwritten by an update? and a function to update the artworks without downloading everything?

    regards,

    Chris

  2. Even if I am Interessting to catch some chd based disc games for various systems it would be too much to ask you for such access there as well...

    good work so far and interesting to see how it raised on your system. Same kind of thread did I managed on an other Frontend board which I already left 

  3. Dear all,

     

    I am working now for over a year with Launchbox plus BigBox but still have a lot to learn.

    currently I want to set up some systems as good as possible with the artworks etc. but lack with the region thing as well.

    for example I have the NES Game 1942. all available artworks form the GamesDB are downloaded, regions are also managed in the options fo launchbox (no flag on Japan)

    probably for the next POLL of features I would like to have some new features for the gamesdb plus how to handle it in launchbox and big box.

    Importing last part of the gigantic Amiga collection, and it may seem like i'm going to hit 100k imported games :)

    what emulator are you using? and what kind of amiga roms? I only have the cryptic names one, which I cannot easy import into launchbox like nes or snes and so on. I am to lazy to import and pick each game by game...

    I just tried your new version and the release date didn't work. I saw the website say it was an invalid date and when I went to look at my submission it said the release date was 2018, not 1996 like it should be. 

    I often had this problem, too. but I thought it was something I did wrong.

  6. there is currently no scrapper functionality in LaunchBox because it have his own database with all the wished information. if something is missed there, the community can add / update those data there. I assume this is the reason why scrapping is no deal at this moment.

    I too was testing Shenmue like you were & was getting a similar error with Demul about not having enough memory. The problem was solved by clearing the C, D, & Z controller inputs (holding shift + mouse-clicking these input buttons). Somehow, these inputs being populated caused the issue with this game.

    thank you, that was the solution. I was wondering why it will not work... thank thank thank you
