hi dear...i found the solution!! please download "display changer" it's a small free program https://12noon.com/?page_id=80 and then put this in the script of LB for each emulator you want (i created an instance of Retroarch , Rocketlauncher for the platform i want: Run, c:\dc\dc.exe -width=320 -height=240 -refresh=max -depth=max $Esc:: { Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}} Run, c:\dc\dc.exe -width=640 -height=448 -refresh=max -depth=max } the program will change the resolution, in my case with calamity drivers, 320x240 is perfect for FS-UAE for a perfect scrolling cause arcade_osd say 320x240 50hz. after you close the pemulator pressing Esc it wil revert automatically to 640x448 desktop (my choice) not need for grooovymame it have switchres ^^ i choiced 640x448 for PSX and DEMUL (dreamcast, atomiswave, hikaru ecc), you cand do that for model2 and model3 emulator...with this program and script you can do everything!!! hope to be helpful! ^^

Hi! i have a CRT attached as primary and LCD for secondary bigbox can't be run on CRT cause the Resolution is 320x240 and i can' read anything, but if i extend monitor the surprise was that BB starts automatically in the second monitor at 1920x1080 , but....with smaaaaallest words, cause is not the primary display. Can i tell to BB to launch as first monitor to display2 on LCD without change from windows as primary?

hi guys, there is someone that can explain me how to use a custom AHK on rocketlauncher? i need to switch desktop resolution when a system starts. i found a very interesting function over internet, but i really don't know how to use, i paste what i found: I am using a CRT Multisync Monitor and after some time with stella 3.81 I found out resolution 512x384 is doing a great job with no tearing and a smooth scrolling to make it complete I will show what I have done so far: For changing resolution I am using the programm dc (multires could do the same job, look for commandline options) http://12noon.com/?page_id=80 I am using the file: HyperLaunch\Lib\User Functions.ahk StartGlobalUserFeatures(){ Log("StartGlobalUserFeatures - Starting") Global systemName,romName ;eg for system Atari 2600 If (systemName = "Atari 2600") { ;Your code here... ;SoundBeep, 750, 500 run, "E:\Hyperspin\Utilities\dc\dc.exe" -width=512 -height=384 ; you can use MultiRes too ;run, "E:\Hyperspin\Utilities\MultiRes\512x384@32.bat" Log("StartGlobalUserFeatures - Ending") } } ; Use this function to define any code you may need to stop or clean up in every module on exit StopGlobalUserFeatures(){ Log("StopGlobalUserFeatures - Starting") ; INSERT CODE HERE ;changing Resolution to menu resolution for hyperspin run, "E:\Hyperspin\Utilities\dc\dc.exe" -width=640 -height=480 Log("StopGlobalUserFeatures - Ending") }

Good evening All i noticed a big problem (maybe there is already a solution) regarding change emulator. for example i have few versions of a game in an unique voice "alien vs predator": Alien vs predator (Europe) Alien vs predator (Us) Alien vs predator (Japan) when i delete an emulator and i create a new one, when i run the game it's start correctly, but if i choice another version LB say "the emulator does not exist anymore", when i select all the games in the platform and i want make change (in this case emulator) and i choice the new one, the other versions inside of the game does not work anymore, like the option "change emulator" does not affect the various versions of the game, i need to go inside the game and for each version change manually the emulator...there is a solution to change the emulator for all games and versions? thank you

hi guys, hard request: i use calamity drivers with arcade_osd. 90% of systems use a low resolution, so i put desktop in 320x200 at 15khz (choosing in the list of arcade_osd), and all went ok. the problem is when i need to start systems like dreamcast, atomiswave, psx (high resolution) Ps2, etc, on CRT all starts at 320x200 (very pixelate). groovymame have switchres and it's fantastic, others have not... there is a possibility to make an AHK like "shift+ctrl+F1" for change resolution trough Arcade_osd in 640x480 for example? sorry for my english, hope you understand what i mean thanks

solved! thank you very much for the suggestion... very simple... if one day i will open a game not properly scaled i adjust and then...game overrides, next time i launch from LB that game it will start with the overrided configuration, it worked! grazie!! ^^

Good morning all! I see RA does not have an automatic switch resolution like groovymame, but with my CRT and modded drivers i found a great solution. for most platforms i have, i use the option "custom" "integer scale" "320 (x1) x 240 (x1), (the resolution is an example). it works perfectly, but some games in the same system sometime have a different resolution, so i go to the menu and with "custom" already on, i go to the resolution and i press "space" and it will automatically change in the native and for example it change in "320 (x1)" and "200 (x1)" my question is: is possible to create an hotkey that change the option automatically? custom, integer, (x1) ? in this way , when game starts we can change immediately without going into the options and do those operations. hope you understand what i mean, sorr for my english

good evening guys, thanks for the response ^^ yes i did what u say ^^ i use mess and mame yes. for example MESSUI recognize automatically if is a disk or cart inside its program "audit" and then import roms, it recognize the different types and starts automatically when u click. there is a way for launchbox for launch MESSUI that recognize automatically a crt or dsk file? or maybe, implement in launchbox that as messui it ill recognize every type of extension and if you choose MAME64 it starts automatically with command -cart (if is cart) etc? sorry again for my english i'm italian ^^

Good evening all i recently imported few different games with different extensions inside 1 platform .dsk , .crt , etc now i need to select only .crt files for example to make mame works corretly. "mame -cart", but now all the games with different extensions are together in the list...can be implemented a feature for show only certain file extensions? hope you understand...lol sorry for my english

good evening all, i use this topic cause i have problem with sega saturn swap. i'm trying swap function, in the m3u i put first the 2nd disc, start sega saturn, the game ask me to put disc 1, when i need to swap disc, i open tray, choice 1st disc, then close tray. One game continue to say me please insert disc 1, other games sega saturn reset. With psx is perfect. Maybe is normal that if you put first the second disk a real sega saturn reset anyway?

installed fresh version of RA and it works now ^^

don't worry, it's my destiny with all in my life...eveything i do, it's a mistery....

hi DOS i use RA alone without LB , and it's incredible this error if copy the game on C: or C:\PCECD for example, it works, then, if i try to copy the games on other HARD DRIVES, T: , D: , etc... it's not work, C: is an SSD... , C: is formatted MBR, D: is MBR , T: is GPT. i really don't know why it happens...and RA is located in T:\emulators

change another hard drive , no success, it load only from C: any idea? thanks

hahhh...i wrong page sorry! i will put the question in the correct section! regarding MSX it was an example, i have problem now to put commands line for each type of extension, the games are mixed, cas, dsk, rom, i need to reimport the roms with 3 differents option for the emu... fmsx -cas fmsx -diska fmsx -rom

Good morning, i don't know if this already exist: for example, i imported 100 games of msx, 33 *.cas, 33 *.dsk, 34 *.rom using FMSX i need to to create 3 different emulators, FMSX-CAS, FMSX-DSK, FMSX-ROM , everyone with a specific command, -diska, -rom, -cas but now i have all 100 games mixed and i want change the emulator selecting only CAS files for example, then...can u create an option like in windows "visualization by type" or like in excel like using filters choicing only what want to see... (in this case only files with CAS extensions), so in this way i can change parameters like "emulator" only with specific files. Another useful thing can be "download metadata for this machine" , cause if i want to update metadata etc it will check all i have in list... thank you very much

good evening all loading the ccd files from hard drive C: all starts ok... loading the ccd files from hard drive T: (failed to load content).... fantastic...without reason...

mmm...i'm importing, slowly, i had now solution, tried to importo some games of a platform, same thing

good morning guys, i leave it without problems but i remember that was very very fast to import before, and i imported already 100.000 files but it was fast, considering that i don't download any meta data right now mmmm.... i can try with my other pc, i'm thinking about some settings of the hard disk maybe...

good evening guys i'm importing the roms without downloading meta data, videos, etc, and i don't move the roms from actual position, but the import is very slow! 1 small file (.dsk) every 2 seconds (i have 18.000 c64 games) any help? thanks

voted thank you

Good morning all, i see the new feature for multidisk games, right click on game and choice which disc launch first... can be a good idea for the roms too? for example: alex kidd.sms alex kidd[!].sms alex kidd[a].sms LB will create 3 games in list named: alex kidd so, on details you will see the remaining part of the file, at this point the idea is chage to: alex kidd (1 title only appear on the list), right click , and choice wich version want to launch, creating on bigbox an option too like this: "play game" then...choice the version. can be a good idea?

thank you very much ^^

Good morning Guys i'm back and i see the new great features of LB wow... I see in the menu that right click on game that there is possibility to launch on the emu the disk1, disk2, disk3 , etc... so , my question is, as per quit from the emulator using ESC (i use the 4DO script for all the emus), there is a script to change disk directly? i use compressed files disk1.rar , disk2.rar and i use option "extract rom" , if i use a script to swap with a key combination, is possible to decompress the second disk temporary at the same time i swap? thank you very much

hi lord... for be honest are months i started to use launchbox, so, i lost my settings and they were not perfect...mame is used for lot of those ones, but i'm not very good to use command lines or scripts...
