Best way to have HyperSpin and LB on the same machine
imdavid555 replied to suspendedhatch's topic in Noobs
What about the HyperSpin side of things? You are not moving anything. I have a HyperSpin setup and you can do it the same way SentaiBrad described. Go to Tools > Manage Platforms > Select your System > Folders. Clear Logo should point to the wheel art (Hyperspin\media\Your system\Artwork\wheel) Box - Front should usually point to Artwork 4 if that is where you have your boxes (Hyperspin\media\Your system\Artwork\Artwork4) Cart - front should point to Artwork 3 (Hyperspin\media\Your system\Artwork\Artwork3) Videos should point to video folder in Hyperspin (Hyperspin\media\Your system\Videos) -
This is possible. Not in front of my setup to confirm exactly how I have it setup. In your Launchbox folder, go to Images > Platform > "Select your system". Should be a folder here called "Fanart Background" or something. Place the image here. Now within Launchbox, go to Tools > Options > Images and setup the image priority to the way you want it for backgrounds.

Thanks for heads up. Sorry to hear about that. Honestly, Its always best to just go to the manufacturers website and just grab them yourself. Who knows where they get some of those drivers or if they are even correct.

Just gotta be patient. There are a lot of other people making edits as well. I remember my first submissions to the gamesDB took about 10/11 days.

Who wants to help us design a bartop arcade cabinet? :)

SentaiBrad said The Background: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ly06vsrdg9duv9z/home-header-background.jpg?dl=0 Exactly! That one! Also, I prefer the no text for the sides. I'm sure the Marquee on the front will say launchbox. I find it redundant just having the words "Launchbox" everywhere. Once is enough imo -

Yeah I definitely think you should change the background. Maybe you can use the Pac-man background like you have on the front page. -
In the add an emulator section, just create another Retro Arch entry with what ever options you like.

Wow that really sucks. Here a few thing you can maybe try: - Refresh the image cache for all images (can take a few minutes, just let it do its thing.) - If you are using any custom themes, maybe go back to the default theme to see if that helps. - Increase your Ram cache (In launchbox, its in the Tools>options area all the way at the bottom). I know this can increase performance within launchbox. - I know in the last few releases, Jason updated the .NET to version 4.6.1 in Launchbox/BigBox. Check if you have the latest versions of .NET on your computer. - maybe checking if there are any driver updates for your computer, specifically your graphics card.

martinconroy said On a separate note @Jason Carr - when deleting a platform (Tools... Manage platforms... Delete) this does NOT provide an option to delete the ROM files as per deleting a game. Personally I think it makes sense to add this option here as well for consistency. If you choose not to, I would advise changing the message to be clear that this will not happen, and to delete the games manually if this is what you want. I think this is a bad idea. Last thing you want is someone deleting an entire platform of games by accident. Just browse to that platforms rom folder in Windows Explorer and Right-click>delete.

Recommendations of Products for Best LaunchBox/Big Box Experience
imdavid555 replied to Beatlemaniac19's topic in Monkeys
Aimtrak lightguns: http://www.ultimarc.com/store/section.php?xSec=7 Don't have one personally but a lot of people online swear by it. There isn't many other options too when it come to lightguns on PC. Dolphin Bar: https://www.amazon.com/Mayflash-W010-Wireless-Sensor-DolphinBar/dp/B00HZWEB74 Great for connecting wii remote to PC. Mayflash makes a bunch of different adapters for many different controllers. Logitech K400r is a great wireless keyboard for htpc setups. Air mouse/keyboards are also an option if you think the k400r is too big. I have this one and its seems to be alright so far: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00K768DHY/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468471341&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=air+mouse&dpPl=1&dpID=51ei5V7rdWL&ref=plSrch PS360+ http://m.play-asia.com/ps360/13/706m8z Arcade stick control board that works with many systems. -
@martinconroy Is the "Games" path correct in LaunchBox? You can check by going to "tools>Manage Platforms>Nintendo Nes(or whatever you named your system)>Folder. Also are you Administrator on that PC?

Help me remember the name of this arcade golf game

Neo Turf Masters? -
Jason mentioned that he still plans on adding LED blindly support in one of his last Dev session. He is currently looking into buying a bar top cabinet that has LED blinky so that he can properly test this feature. Im sure if you donated a cabinet he would start ASAP ;)

No worries Brad! Thank you for the help :) -
Different names for games from different regions
imdavid555 replied to imdavid555's topic in Contributions
Thanks Brad! Had no idea there was a guideline for the LaunchBox Database. I found the forum topic a few minutes ago with the guidelines through a google search. Might be good idea to have that posted on the Games Database site since I don't see it anywhere there. Thanks again for the help Brad! -
Always a good idea to make a backup of your launchbox folder before updating to a beta build! Check the "Tools > Options > Images" area and make sure you have set your image priorities the way you want them. Also check "Tools > Manage Platforms > 'Choose your system' > Folders" area and making sure it has the correct locations for your art work. Hope this helps!

Yeah. Has been down for me for the last 2-3 days as well. No idea why. Couldn't find anything on their twitter, facebook, and in the HyperSpin forums.

Doing some moderating and I was given Shinobi X (Europe). Now, this is the same game as Shinobi Legions (USA) which is already in the database. The only difference is the name. I'm thinking accept, but what would be the standard protocol for something like this? -
Meet Kirsten, the newest member to the LaunchBox team

Welcome Kristen! -
il-Hank Totally Awesome Video and thank you for sharing!!! I definitely see the inspiration from the trailer. What software did you use to make the video ?

Thanks Jason. Created a bitBucket ticket. Issue #1116. Platform videos would look much better without the wheel in the way.
