unfortunately i don't have that option... I also tried to uninstall and install the driver of my joypad, but it isn't detected anymore...during the installation of the driver, it is necessary to test the button, and any button isn't detected...:( I don't know if my configuration of JoytoKey has an impact on that...until yesteday it worked perfectly...

thanks! Well, I have a problem: it seems that JoytoKey doesn't start correctly now...if I double click on the .exe file, the application is minimized but I'm not able to open it in order to change its configuration...if I click on the icon, it doesn't happen anything... I tried to launch the game (double click on the .exe file but the joypad isn't detected even if JoytoKey is opened... In the meanwhile I follwed your guide: and Is that correct? But I can't try if it works because now I have another problem: my joypad isn't detected anymore by LB!!!!! I don't know why! The mapping is still present: but LB doesn't detect any command, in any game and any console...!!!! And it isn't detected anymore to any emulator even if i don't use LB!!!! But is seems that it works perfectly, the input command are detected (I have a Logitech Rumblepad 2), i don't know what is happened! thanks!

thanks. So, the script should be: #NoEnv #SingleInstance Run, "D:\EMULATORI\GIOCHI per PC\Contra Evolution HD\Contra Evolution\JoyToKey_en\JoyToKey.exe" Contra HD.cfg Process, Wait, AMContra.exe Process, WaitClose, AMContra.exe WinClose, ahk_exe JoyToKey.exe ExitApp and I configured in this way: I added an Application Name, then I entered the path of the JoyToKey.exe file and at the end I copied all the script in the "application COmmand-Line Parameter": is that correct? And here my JoytoKey configuration: Is everything correct? many thanks!

Hi, I have a little problem with Contra Evolution: this game can be played with joypad only if I use JoyToKey application. So I have configured JoytoKey and now if I want to play this game, I have to start JoyToKey and then double click on the .exe file of the game and so it immediately detect the joypad. So, I added the game to LB, in my WIndows platform section: but even if i start JoyToKey, when i launch the game with LB, the joypad isn't detected...I don't know why... 1) is it possible to use games with JoytoKey from LB? 2) Is it also possible to automatically start JoyToKey when I launch this game from LB? Thank you very much!

yes it works now!!! I don't know why, but yesterday it was not possible, i don't know for which reason...but it was impossibile to enter to any wheel.... many thanks!

HI i have a really stupid question about Big Box: currently I still have the default themes. When I enter, I have the wheel with all my systems and i can see the recent games for every system. But I don't know how I can enter in eash system and see ALL the games related to that system, I tried in several ways but i'm not able.. I would like to see all the games of each system, and each games with ist covers, theme (when available) and screenshot. thank you

hi 1) King of fighters 98 Ultimate match final edition: yes I have already removed that files (there were only the GAME Loader RH files) , but when i load it, I have the black screen: I tried The King of Fighters 98 and it works correctly. Only Te King of fighter 98 Ultimate Match Final Edition Nexiva Live doesn't work... Probably I need a better version of this game? Please can you tell me via PM where you downloaded your gmae? 2) Daemon Bride: i had same issue, but i solved, there was the antivirus that deleted the game.exe file as a virus! Now it perfectly works. 3) Battle Fantasia: i'm using the Logiteh Rumblepad and it perfectly works with every game, but it is necessary to set it as "Direct Input". If I choose "Xinput" it is not possible to configure the button mapping thanks!

ah, I solved the issue in antoher way: when I import the game, LB associates Taito Type X platform: but if I change it to Teknoparrot: and it is ok Now I have solved all the issues with LB Many thanks! I still have to solve some issues with 4 games in Teknoparrot. Can you help me? Here the issues, we can try to solve them togheter? We better deal with one problem at a time 1) King of Fighters '98 Ultimate Match Final Edition for NesicaxLive and Daemon Bride: when i start the game, there is a black screen in the top left corner and the game doesn't start 2) Battle Fantasia: the game runs perfectly, but the control input aren't detected. It seems that it is a known issue but i don't find the patch.. 3) Chaos Breaker: this game has a lot of issues. It start only in windowed mode and if I don't apply the CRT patch. But in any case it runs with a high speed and then crashes. If I apply the speed patch, it works correctly, but in windowed mode (the screen is really little) and in really low resolution. If I apply the crt fix, it seems that it work, but the file of this patch overwrite the files of the "pseed patch" and so the game is still unplayable. In addition, the game isn't correctly displayed: https://postimg.cc/yD7Y71pY I tried several ways but i don't find how to fix them

yes, confirmed, it works with your method too And it works also with these 2 different configurations: or many thanks! Now I have to solve the other problem. And I see that i have exactly the same problem also if I add additional games in Teknoparrot, for example Melty Blood Actess Again Current Code: if I don't search a match in LB, the game, without any metadata and extrafile, is correctly under Teknoparrot platform: but if i try to link it to a LB record, like this one: LB associates the game to another emulator: and even if if i changed the emulator, adding again "Teknoparrot", tha game isn't moved under Teknoparrot platform: It means that if I want the game under teknoparrot platfom, it is mandatory NOT to link it with an existing record in LB...but it is really strange! See also my previous post where i reported another example..:( thank you!

Well i solved the issue of launching games in LB with teknoparrot in this way: I created a blanck txt file named as the xml file of the game (from GameProfile folder ) and here I copied the xml name of the game from the UserProfile folder (sometimes the xml file isn't the same both in Gameprofile folder and Userprofile folder, for example Goketsuji.xml in GameProfile and PowerInstinctV.xml in Userprofile folder) NOw I need to solve the issue related to the game that is under TaitoType X platform...but i don't know how...:\

Thanks. I tried to copy my BladeStrangers.xml file to the ROM folder where I have the games folder of Teknoparrot and I renamed it as BladeStrangers.xml.txt. But i still have same problem: when i click on the game, it opens the Teknoparrot interface...I followed 3 different guide on youtube, but still have same result I tried everything, but it seems that the games can't start... Speaking about my 2nd problem, i'm sorry but I haven't understood: currently, for TaitoTypeXtra games, I was force to creat a single emulator for each game. For Goketsuji Ichizoku - Matsuri Senzo Kuyo I created "Taito Type X19" emulator and I associated to this game the Taito Type X platform: And the game works (see game N.2 in my previuous post). When I import in LB, under Teknoparrot Platform, the game (but it is not the same folder, i downloaded a different version of this game!), the game is correctly moved under teknoparrot platform, but as you can see, it isn't correctly detected: So i found in google that the right name for LB is: Shin Gouketsuji Ichizoku: Matsuri Senzo Kuyou (https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/details/51861). So I rename it correctly and i choosed this: and LB automatically associates this emulator: but it doesn't make sense, this emulator is associated to another game, En-Eins Perfektewelt in my Taito Type X platform! and so LB move the game from Teknoparrot platform to Taito Type X platform... Even if I change the the emulator, the game still stays in the Taito Type X platfom: I don't know how to solve this stupid issue

hi, @Mr.Miguardi I sent you a PM, thank you!

I have another problem: i'm trying to import a game (Goketsuji Ichizoku - Matsuri Senzo Kuyo) and I already have this game for Taito Type X platform too, launched with TaitoTypeXtra emulator. But during the import process, LB move my game under the Taito Type X platform and automatically change the emulator (from Teknoparrot to TaitoTypXtra), I'm not able to keep it under Teknoparrot platform, even if i manually change again the emulator: the N.1 is for Teknoparrot, N.2 is for TypeXtra platform (I have 2 different game version, i'm not using the same!). How can I move the n.2 under Teknoparrot platform?

thanks. Done: now when I click on the game cover, it appears the Teknoparrot window: but the game doesn't start... here my Emulator configuration ( also tried to uncheck the check for updated option, but i still have same problem): Is there anything that i can change? many thanks!

hi, many thanks! I have configured my first game in this way, but the game doesn't start... 1) created a new platform named "teknoparrot", without any value in the Scrape As field 2) Added the emulator with its own command line: 3) added it as default emulator: 4) used the xml file stored in the TeknoParrot\GameProfiles path: 5) in the Emulation tab, added the User custom command line, with the copy/past value of the xml file from stored in the TeknoParrot\UserProfiles path: But when i click on the game cover, it doesn't start... I don't know where I have done a wrong configuration... many thanks!

Hi, I would like to add Teknoparrot to LB and i saw some videotutorial, but it seems that there are several ways...so I have 3/4 questions: 1) During the import process, is it correct to import the .exe file of each game or its .xml file stored in the \TeknoParrot\GameProfiles path? 2) Platform: is it necessary to create a platform for each system supported in Teknoparrot? Or can I create a generci platform named "Teknoparrot"? 3) during the Emulator configuration, is it necessary to enter the string --profile= in the Command line field? 4) is it necessary, for each game, fill in its own Custom Command line with the name of the game which is present in the xml file in the TeknoParrot\UserProfiles path? thank you very much!

thank you!

thanks! I usually update the regular MAME UI fullset, i don't use any particular MAME version. So, with the new official LB release, it will be possibile to understand when LB would be ready to import the new official MAME UI version? thanks

yessss, thank you guys!!!!!

Hi, is the procedure above correct? thank you!

HI I have configured Xemu as Xbox emulator. But I don't know how to run the games in LB. When i launch a game with the Xemu frontedn, it is necessary to perform 2 step: 1) Machine --> Load disc 2) Machine --> Reset (or, if you are using the Evolution X dashboard, you can select LAUNCH DVD) So I added the emualtor and isos to LB, but when i run a game, the emualtor doesn't start, it closes immediately... Do you know if it is possible to use this emulator on LB? thanks!

thanks! Well, 1) I ran the cmd in this way: and at the end this pop up appeared: then i pushed SAVE SHORTCUT and it has created the file that I saved here: is it correct? If so, now, I have to configure LB not in this way anymore: but in this new way: Is this correct? thanks!

perfect, thanks! Done! Everything works as expected

ah ok! And during the Restore procedure, is it necessary to check the "enable autokey" option? And is it necessary also during the Backup process? By default it is unckecked. thanks!

hi, i still have a little question: I want to add a 3DO game to my collection. In order to add it and then use it on LB, which are the correct steps? I suppose: 1) Run _Phoenix_Rom_Launcher.exe and push RESTORE. Then answer YES to the pop up. In this way it will replace my previous configuration file. 2) then I have to add the new game to the emulator, as usual. 3) after that, I have to run again the _Phoenix_Rom_Launcher.exe file and push BACKUP button. And nothing else. is this correct?
