thanks! i'm following your great guide. STEP 1: i updated my mame.ini file in this way and i put my zipped games in the software folder: STEP 2: i unzipped the games in this test folder. In my opinion some files (in yellow) can be deleted: and these files too, included in the Out of this world.zip file too, can be deleted, is that right? I suppose i have to keep only the 2 .dsk files of the game. Note: usually when i update the MAMEUI, i reply "NO" to this pop up, as i don't use MAME to run emulators, i use it only for Arcade games. I have just updated it to 0.235 version and i replied "NO" as usual. Is that correct or does i need to reply YES if i want to emulate Apple II GS? thanks!

yeah, great everything works correctly, many thanks! Now i only need to configure an Apple GS emulator, i think that GSPlus could be oK. I downloaded it and added the ROM1 and ROM3 file needed. I have some games now but it seems that this emulator is really hard to configure...it seems that it is necessary to manually enter every time the command line to load a game??? Do you use it or do you suggest anything else? thank you!

thanks, it's clear! But i tried in this way: MANIAC MANSION but the disk 2 isn't automatically loaded: and same thing for Bard's Tale: the disk 2 isn't loaded: Is there something wrong?

thanks! 1) OK 2) I copied your string, it works perfectly! 3) I don't have a lot of games, i can configure them manually But i haven't understood how to do that... for example i have imported these 2 games, in this way: and here both games imported: Manian Mansion and Bard's Tale: Please, can you help me to configure them= thanks!

Hi i'm using AppleWin to emulate Apple II, but i have some issues, please can you help me? 1) i set up in this way the Input: But very often it doesn't work, my joypad isn't detected (i have the xbox one joypad). It works with Choplifter, Commando, Impossibile Mission, for example. But almost all others games don't detect the joypad...And i'm not able to clearly identify in the keyboard which are the commands. I see that directional button are mapped on the numerical keyboard buttons (8, 2, 4, 6), sometimes Q button works as an Action button...but sometimes it doesn't work. I it possible to use the xbox joypad with every game? If not, how can i know the mapping on the keyboard? 2) how can I correctly configure the emulator on LB? Here below my current default settings: If i run a game, it only appears the emulator GUI but the games doesn't start automatically and it isn't automatically loaded in the DISK 1 slot. 3) how can i import multiple DISK games and automatically load them when i launch them with LB? Here below some examples: how can i load them? Is it necessary to rename them in this way? Bard's Tale, The (1985)(Electronic Arts)(Disk 1) Bard's Tale, The (1985)(Electronic Arts)(Disk 2) Bard's Tale, The (1985)(Electronic Arts)(Disk 3) Bard's Tale, The (1985)(Electronic Arts)(Disk 4) and then import them like mutiple disks games for PSX, for example? Here below a PSX mutiple disks game: thank you very much!

Hi, i'm looking for a good, user friendly and if necessary still updated emulator for these console in order to add it in LB. Please, can you suggest me something? I'm looking for emulators with joypad support if possible. Here below some emulators that i retrieved googoling: Apple II (Apple IIc, Apple IIe, Apple IIGS) --> Virtual II, AppleWin, Octalizer, KEGS (i'm not sure that all the emulators support all the Apple II models..) Amstrad (CPC 464, 664, 6128) --> WinAPE, Retro Virtual Machine Commodore 64/128 --> WinVICE Vic20 --> WinVICE ZX Spectrum --> ZX Spectrum 4, Retro Virtual Machine, Spectaculator (not freeware), Fuse I could prefer the ones with a configuration tutorial for LB :) thank you!

it seems that everything works correctly I have an issue with guitly gear xx acccent core plus, but it doesn't depend from the game format, it seems that the issue appears after updating Dolphin (for sure this game worked some months ago). I'm not able to play it anymore. It seems that after updating dolphin to the latest version, when i start the game, after loading the shaders, it appears a totally blank pop up, without any message, it is possible to read only "Warning". Dolphin is freezed and i have to restart my pc in order to exit! I have this issue only with this game...it worked some months ago, in the same pc. Only now i have this issue do you know how can I try to solve this problem?

ah! well, currently all my emulators and LB are in my hdd, i have the SDD only for the C disk (O.S. and so on). But I'm planning to buy a 4TB SSD as soon as the cost will decrease, so for sure the performance in general will be really better

ah ok, yes i have a really good cpu/gpu, so i could use only the regular edition of Dolphin. I will check if every games work fine with the standard edition: if so, i will delete Ushiiruka. thank you very much!

thanks, well, i don't know, probably Ishiiruka has additional features? I don't remember exactly why I configured it in addition to the standard Dolphin emulator... probably now Ishiiruka is quite useless if it is not regularly updated...

perfect, i'm converting my GC and Wii iso, then i will try some of them in order to verify that everyting is ok and finally i will change the links in LB Some games are really reduced: Super Magio Ragalaxy 2 for example decreased from 4.36GB iso to 1,25GB RVZ!!! Super Mario Galaxy "only" reduced from 4.36GB to 3.36GB

ah! I dind't know that! Well, i tried to convert all my Wii games into wbfs and the total size was reduced from 80GB to 53GB. I also tried to convert a game from iso to RVZ: in RVZ the size is only 1.11GB and in wbfs is 1.8GB, so I can save additional space I used this setting: Ah if needed i can convert back from rvz to iso? which is the tool to do that? Do you know if Dolphin Ishiiruka too support rvx format file? thanks!

Hi, I noticed that almost all my Wii isos games have the same size: about 4.7GB. For sure a lot of these games doesn't use all this GB....is it possible to reduce the size wihtout losing anthing? I'm using Dolphin emulator, and I read that it support wbfs format too. So i could convert my isos in wbfs format, in order to reduce the size, is this a good way? I suppose that in LB i simply have to load the wbfs file instead of the iso file, is correct? I could use the wbfs files loading them my Wii U too? thank you!

thank you!

ah, so in order to use a pc engine cd game with Mednafen: 1) if the format is img+cue+sub+ccd, i can avoid to convert it in cue+iso 2) if the format is several file mp3 + iso + cue, i can convert it to bin+cue with CDMage thank you!

Hi, I'm using all my Pc Engine cd games with Mednafen emulator. I converted every game from its original format (img+cue+sub+ccd) to the supported format iso+cue using Isoburn. Every game works perfectly, I have about 80 games, but only one has a strange problem, Ys I & 2 (Book 1). When I run the game, it doesn't work: it appears this screen, and every audio track is played in sequence: https://ibb.co/FVMsqmt Do you know how can I solve this issue? I have the same problem even if I play the img+cue+sub+ccd format, so the issue isn't caused by the conversion process... thank you EDIT: I solved the issue, fortunately i found another game version and it works

hi, anyone can suggest how can I modify the commands considering my new joypad? thank you

Well, now i want to play with my Xbox One X, but the joypad isn't detected anymore...I have to pair it again... so it seems that the same joypad can't be used both with Xbox one X and with the pc (with the wireless dongle): as I complete the pairing process with one of the 2 device, the pairing is interrupted in the other device and it needs to be done every time...:( So I think that I'm forced to buy another xbox one controller ?

Hi, my Logitech Rumble pad was broken, so i'm using the Xbox One X controller. Now I have to map again the joypad, but I have this problem: I configured in this way my previous command button: how can I create the new one for my xbox controller? I tried in this way, but it doesn't work...: I don't know how I have to substitute "Logitech_Cordless_RumblePad_2_USB"... thanks!

yes, i tried. It seems that the joypad works almost correctly, but only in the charactes select screen, it doesn't work the left/right so i can't select all the characters... The game.ini file has this rows related th the Player 1: Player1 KEY ã=84 Player1 KEY ‰E=70 Player1 KEY ‰º=66 Player1 KEY ¶=72 Player1 KEY ‚`=65 Player1 KEY ‚a=83 Player1 KEY ‚b=68 Player1 KEY ‚c=81 Player1 KEY ‚d=87 Player1 KEY ‚e=69 Player1 KEY PAUSE=27 Player1 JOY ‚`=0 Player1 JOY ‚a=1 Player1 JOY ‚b=2 Player1 JOY ‚c=3 Player1 JOY ‚d=4 Player1 JOY ‚e=5 Player1 JOY PAUSE=9 But i can't set them in the game options, these are the default command because in the settings of the game if I try to change something, the joypad isn't detected. And the directional button aren't detected at all. I don't know, probably it is a strange issue of my OS...I don't know, if it could be solve when i will format my C hdd...

well, in my AppData path tehre isn't any useful file for configuration of Stem games. But in my installing Steam patch, i found this: D:\EMULATORI\STEAM\steamapps\common\vanguard-princess\game.ini. Probably i could try to delete this file and re-create it again rebooting the game...? thanks!

thanks! Now I have solved the issue of not detected joypad in 2 of the 3 games on Steam: for these games it is necessary to disable the xbox one controller. Now i stil,have issue with one game, Vanguard princess: even if I deactivate the joypad, sometimes the game detect it as player 2 and it seems playable, but the left/right command in the characters select screen doesn't work. Other times the joypad isn't detected at all. It seems that my previous joypad is still considered in this game...but i don't know how to remove it I Have uninstalled driver and unplugged the dongle...

i have another question: I have only one Xbox One controller. If i buy the wireless dongle in order to use it with my emulators/pc too, the joypad can be simultaneoulsy be used with Xbox One X and with the pc? I mean: can I perform pairing with both pc and xbox? Or does I need 2 joypad, one for xbox and one for pc? thanks!

thanks, I deleted the 3 logitech configurations from the JoyToKey.ini file, not there is only the xbox pad, thanks!

thanks 1) I have unplugged the usb doggle and unistalled the driver, but the Logitech profiles are still present in JoyToKey. And I still have the problem with the 3 games on Steam: the xbox controller is detected in steam, and before to start the game, I verified that it is present as default controller for each game. It seems that everything is correct, but when I start the games, the joypad isn't detected. In Melty Blood it seems that I'm detected as Player 2, but i can only configure the keyboard in the Option menu of the game... and in Crimson Skies and Vanguard princess, the joypad isn't detected at all... 2) i know that this is a really stupid question... Now I'm configuring again every emulator, because I will use my Xbox One X pad, that it works really well. But I would like to buy the wireless dongle in order to play wireless. When I will play wireless, the joypad will be detected, is that correct? I mean, it will not necessary to re-map again every emulator, am I right? thank you very much!
