lordmonkus said CRT-Royale is in the CRT folder but the Kurozumi version is tucked away in the CGP folder. Weird place for it since it is a CRT shader and just an edit of Royale. Also there is only a CG version and not a GL version. CGP folder, has 3 empty folders nothing else . CRT royale has many shaders wich one ? How do I save em ? I clicked apply shader changes - save config - exit , go back in and shader passes is in 0. something is fishy here

I found CRT-Royale folder but not Kurozumi

lordmonkus said If you want just a straight upscaled and shardp image try the pixellate shader, for a great CRT shader look in the CG/CGP folder for CRT-Royale-Kurozumi shader, that's the one I use and I love it. do you use only 1 for all cores?, to me it depends if its more like FMV or cartoon type

the problem is that I dont know how to save a bunch of them, to shuffle through later and see how the look on the fly

lordmonkus said What sort of shader are you looking for ? CRT scanlines, a simple upscale and clean look or a smoothed out look ? Also what kind of graphics card do you have ? Some shaders are pretty heavy on the GPU requirements. My gpu can handle it Nvidia Geforce 7 series.. 1080p tv whatever makes it look great but not blurry

DOS76 said In RA go to settings and go to input scroll down until you come to Input Hotkey Binds here by mapping a hotkey you can map many different options that make your controller a powerful way to interface with RetroArch. This is by far one of the best features of RA and it is what puts it so far above many of the stand alones that exist. ok I found it, and how do I save them to shuffle through with dpad ? I went to shaders tried to save a few, but they are not being showed.

DOS76 said If you use the hotkey binding you can see the changes on the fly you just have to save the shaders you like and then set the controller to toggle through your shaders. I use left thumnb key for the hotkey button and then I use d-pad left and right to shuffle through. where can I learn how to do it? do you have some info to share maybe sorry Im new to launchbox and RA, still in learning process

DOS76 said I tried to stay with Fusion for as long as I could but the fact that it isn't updated anymore forced me over to the RA cores. I just got it, and just to compare it to the core.. the image is much better with fusion I know the cores has shaders, but it is complicated with RA, you cannot see the changes on the fly

lordmonkus said What version of Fusion are you using ? I don't use fusion anymore but I do have version 3.64 installed and just did a quick test and it loaded up in windowed mode by default. In the emulator settings for Fusion in Launchbox the default command line parameters box is left empty and all check boxes are unchecked. After messing around with it for a minute something that may fix your issue is load a game and if it loads fullscreen press escape on your keyboard and it should go into windowed mode. Now exit the emulator and the next time you load a game it should load in windowed mode. I noticed that if I put it into fullscreen mode and closed out the emulator the next time I loaded a game it loaded in fullscreen again. Hope this helps, if it doesn't then I am sorry I can't be of any more use :( Im using the latest one 3.64 I got it last week, I just wanted to compare the core to the stand alone emulator. But since day one Im having this issue. Ok lets see... ESC , closes up the emulator here, and if I right click on it to pull up the menu, try to uncheck full screen it also close up the emulator.

thanks sir

Brad, can you help me

thank you guys, this will be a great implement, killing 2 birds 1 stone

I have the same issue, full screen is removed from parameters, but the issue persist even in full screen I go to video, uncheck full screen from fusion, but it closes up the emulator

whats the beta version, Brad ?

Is there a way that, when we delete a game, also delete the rom related, at the same time ?

I noticed all images showing are for box Front, how can select a different image as a default image?

How does launchbox reacts to split sets, merged sets and non merged sets ?

OK I got it now sir, with RA that mame checkbox you were saying has to be checked, but with the stand alone mame you get it automatically. Brad, with all your experience here, what do you prefer, RA or stand alone for Arcade ?

no, no, I didn't say full screen guys. windowed .. you know is really weird, with sega core , if it set the window scale to 3x, then I close it, open it back again and now is 2x.. is crazy it always go back 1 scale. this is how launchbox opens the window, below the taskbar, so, is there a way to fix the window to be in the same place it was left before? in Ra I have it set like this Custom and my custom resolution, but the window is ignoring that, I keep getting a smaller window

This is what Im getting, and sorry Brad for trouble you so much, I really appreciate your time helping me

SentaiBrad said No, the platform just needs to be called Arcade or you check the box during import "Force MAME Importer" and it should work. If you call it something other than Arcade you'll also need to use the Scrape As function to Scrape it as Arcade once all of the names change over. Is this though RA or stand alone mame ? cause I do not see that option, I was trying the core here, choose Arcade and nothing

Brad, allow me to point out something about you mame video, I didnt get the Mame import filter, was that removed ?

yes Brad with the nicest voice..I was watching your mame video on YT, thank you sir The only thing that I didnt undestand is the CHD file.. and updating roms when you upgrade to a new version of mame..

do you know how to fix the window screen, so everytime I open a rom it opens in the same place and same preferred or custom resolution.. I tried Custom aspect ratio and set the width and height ... but I still get small window thanks

Thanks Brad again, I always looking for info and watching videos. The problem with retroarch is that, there are many mame cores, do you recommend any in specific I just tried 1.75 mameui and is awful, I set it to available, and I get a bunch of stuff in the list that I dont have in the rom folder, all messed up
