    Request: Move DirectX when upgrading

    in Features

    Posted

    When I have the launchbox installed and opt in for the beta I will always get the Microsoft DirectX installation.

    Either remove the option when Upgrading or make it a tickbox to choose to opt in or out or put it first in the install.

    I really really really appreciate the product :)

    Big noob and already p***ed off about performance

    My import of Arcade (using the 0.181 release) will take a while so usually do the update without downloading images.

    While importing you cant do much else, which has gotten better with newer versions. If you already have the images handy just drop them in the correct folder if romname is the same as the image name..

    For smaller system I import with images from start, I also have an account at emumovies. Since you already seem to have hyperspin working I presume you have all the images and movies?

    For another question, WTF is synchronized internet cable?

    Big Box Trial?

    Theres really no difference between the versions. Big mode is nice to have, but really I run it most in Desktopmode to sort and so on.

    Still happy I bought it. I think that launchbox with emumovies made a difference for me. I tried to get Hyperspin working for a while, but Launchbox is great. Bad things is that its updated all the time so theres always some new feature that "I HAVE TO HAVE". Like intro movies :)

     

    Make part of image the background in GIMP

    You used layers in the first pic, which was the correct idea. and the last pic you have flattened the image. But keep the layers in the original file and save the "final" one as psd (if thats whats its called in gimp) and save a copy for web (jpg, png). I think you have done correctly if you used layers and masks. Similar as you would do in Photoshop.

    Nice work!

    WOW! Great upload. I just downloaded everything, very excited to get this all set up soon. I have all the games so I will just need to match everything up manually. 

    Thank you!!!

    My hope is that you dont have to change anything and the names will fit the naming convention of your files. Same with the images.

    Let me know of the result =)

    Created a folder @emumovies > upload here > videosnap submissions > _not approved > wize > Pinball FX2
    All the images are in a zipfile called Pinball FX2 images

    and I left all the videos unzipped, since there is a lot of redundant videos if you dont have all the games.

    Not sure. Either I get someone to approve it att Emumovies or I make an torrent out of it. It would be good if it was downloadable through the Launchbox app since thats the one Im  using..

    Seems that Pinball FX2 is to new to be a platform inside Launchbox (please correct me here) =)

    I have created a pack of images/videos for Pinball FX2 that are built on Dracos images and also added videos for most of the flippers (except Football) . 

    Which now is 2+ Gb. Does anyone else wants it, or what would be good idea to do with it?

    Best way to update Arcade collection

    in Noobs

    Posted · Edited by wize

    Which is the best way to update Arcade (Mame) in Launchbox without loosing all the dl images and movies?

    I have one folder named mame174 and now I have a new folder called mame179

    Whats the best approach to get everything updated? Should I add all the roms from the new directory?

     

    BTW I want to keep the different mamefolders intact and only move the pointers. If I point to a new directory will it update all roms?

    Roms
    F:\arcade\roms\mame175\MAME 0.175 ROMs < Old
    F:\arcade\roms\mame179\MAME 0.179 ROMs < New

    Emulator
    F:\arcade\emulators\mame\mame174
    F:\arcade\emulators\mame\mame179

     

    and when I see everything is working as expected I will remove the old ones..

    Found the images for most of the games.. Seems to be missing the two last tables (Women of Pinball) that are new.

     

    I have downloaded what I can find and sent a message to Eirulan that we can compare notes before making a zip of the images and the videos..
    I probably need to clean up som files within.

    Seems like I added stuff in the mame64.exe but missed the SAVE OPTIONS after the changes was made. Since I didnt save I didnt have any mame.ini in my mamefolder.. BUT NOW its there.. And I also checked the WORLD to import the games into Launchbox... Thanks for all the (fast!) help! https://youtu.be/NjpjeRR2DUE
