You can easily use ANY core you like. Providing you have it installed. Just edit your platforms xml to use whatever core you prefer. Use notpad+ on windows. Really easy.

Really easy to just edit your playstation xml & use whatever core you want. Just change the core name in the relevant place. Be sure to have the core installed however. Notepad+ is really useful.

It's possible. Couple of videos showing how I've got mine setup. I have 2 separate setups. 1 for computer systems & 1 for consoles. Otherwise it takes forever to boot up. I just switch between the 2 setups by changing the launchbox folder in the settings. Launchbox 1 & Launchbox 2. Haven't added zx spectrum yet as I'm still busy sifting out all the dupes & doubles in the windows launchbox. Very tedious. Anyway, couple videos including scummVM & MS-DOS setup. I'll do a tutorial when i can, explaining how to import scumm. It involves using the windows launchbox, The epicfail scummvm plugin, Notepad+, Bulk file renamer & Exos Scummvm collection. Not as bad as it may seem. & the end results are great. Android Computers Category Android Consoles Category

In my setup i have a custom system added for commodore 64 covertapes. I thought it would be cool to have the magazine issues the covertapes are from as the manuals. So i added each issue pdf to each covertape as it's manual. Great. So if i view manual from in launchbox, they open as expected. I suspect because they're opening in adobe. However, When i try to view them in Bigbox using the built in pdf viewer, all i get is a blank white screen. This is only with these particular manuals. Any thoughts?

I'm having an issue when starting games from bigbox. The game will start but then batrunner.exe cmd box will become focused over the top & minimises scummvm. Any ideas? -
I've looked but can't see an option to display a screenshot if no gameplay video is present?. Perfect for console stuff where i have all the videos, But with the computer stuff eg. c64, amiga etc where the videos are patchy. all i have is an ugly black area. A screenshot here wouldn't go a miss. -
@JoeViking245I Know, I've also looked all over for a softlist catver.ini or some way to filter these softlist roms to no avail. I've even resorted to taking a tosec set, Separating out the application & educational folders & then crc matching against the softlist apple II set & physically deleting the matching roms. I've managed to weed out a good few using this method but not all!
-
While this is really great. Does anyone know of a way to filter out the mountains of crap also present in the software list roms? Eg educational, Applications. And just have the games?. Im interested in the Apple II but the shear amount of non-game software is just crazy

Ok so i checked my retroarch screenshot folder & there were 10 screenshots. These are shots i'd taken previously. None of the game in question. On the occasions where i've been asked to save the shots though, it asked me to save 10 screenshots.

It's fine now, Sorted. Turns out it was a wayward custom config i was using for the fuse core causing my controller issues. As for the phantom screenshots, i will investigate later as to what the shots actually are.

Nope. Nothing extra. Steam is always open on my system as i have it load at startup. But thats not it as the older launchbox works fine. I was going to test up to which version it stopped working but unfortunately i deleted my update folder contents just recently!. Somewhere between 11 beta 1 & 11 official is the problem
-
& working in earlier version. Both exact same setup with regards to settings working.mp4

i also have it set to use kempston. I just made 2 videos. One using latest launchbox & one using 11 beta 1. Oddly though this time it didnt give me a screenshot save request. But it did still mess up. In the video i am pressing random buttons on the pad. broken.mp4 working.mp4
-
Thats just it, Im not taking any screenshots. Its just saying i have after i exit. Also i haven't set a screen capture key or changed the default f8 screenshot key in retroarch. Like i said, Ive changed absolutely nothing since launchbox 11 beta 1. But now im getting these save screenshot requests & any joypad press whilst using the fuse core will spaz it out. Its like background keyboard automations off the joypad are being sent to retroarch or something
-
Ever since the introduction of the screenshot grabber. I've been having a strange issue with certain cores in retroarch. Mainly cores for computers with keyboards. Also requests to save Phantom screenshots after exiting. Its as if my joypad movements are sending keyboard commands to retroarch. It renders the spectrum fuse core unusable. Its definitely a launchbox issue as it all works fine in an earlier version (which i have setup separately & not updated). Also works fine when running retroarch alone. I've changed nothing in settings. I don't have my pad set to do anything like this in launchbox settings either. Strange

Is there any way i can use either this tool or some variation on it, to copy or move all the games listed in the sql to another location?. I need all the game files in a single location as im trying to make my launchbox setup portable. At the moment i have my fsuae games in seperate folders. eg amiga cd32, tosec, gamebase and i just scan the whole folders into fsuae. Now obviously if i want this portable i dont need whole tosec amiga collection. or whole gamebase amiga collection. This would just take up unnecessary space. I only need the games that fsuae detects & uses. Thus i need a way to just copy out all the games to another location. It seems like this tool could have the means to do it. Only at the moment it only copies out game ids
-
That was what i have already thought. But it's just not practical in my situation. There are literally a thousand additional roms to add. This is so simple when using arc browser on android. As long as the roms are named the same (besides tags in brackets) rescanning them will just add them together with the 'parent' rom. I need this functionality. It's capable of doing it when you first add the roms so I don't see why it can do it when you add more?
-
I like to have other versions of games as additional apps. This works great when you first import a set. But if you later want to add more roms as additional apps then you must add them individually. Is there no way to drag & drop additional roms over the top & have them added as additional versions?. If i try i just see no roms added. As they technically already exist by name only so it won't add them. Id like it to add them to existing games as additional apps. As it would if i were to freshly scan

The retroarch puae core works perfectly these days as far as i can tell. You just need your kickstarts in the bios folder named correctly. Just load up the core in ra & click the core info. It'll tell you the files & file names you need for your kick roms. Works fine with adfs & hdfs
-
Yes, Its whilst its loading the data. My total number of games is 68776! so i guess its time to trim that down a little lol. I'll drop some of my c64 stuff & see how we do.
-
Im using the Nvidia Shield & my content is on an external HD. The start time is exactly 1min 44secs. It's probably due to the large number of games & art i have for the c64. I got like the whole Tosec set in there. D64, Tap, T64 & also GB64. The Spectrum & Amstrad has a hell of alot of games too. Thats plus my St & all the consoles. Got pretty much everything in there. Im thinking i'll trim it down for the Android lol. Doesn't have quite as much crunching power as my desktop
-
Yes, I know about overrides. But i prefer to use separate cfgs. Not everything saves in a override. And sometimes they don't even work. As an example of something that doesn't save in an override, retroarch hot keys. I might want my trigger button for fast forward whilst using one core, but i might need that trigger for normal use in another core. I've found these kinds of things dont save using overrides
-
Also, Custom cfgs for retroarch. I have tons that i use for overlays etc. Thats the only thing missing for me. The other stuff i can wait for. Currently im running launchbox on pc & Arcbrowser on my shield because it has all the features i need right now. But it is a little buggy & has a tendency to crash alot for wotever reason. So eventually im hoping to switch fully to launchbox on my shield too. Once all the features i need are implemented. Also, the launchbox start up times can be quite lengthy with alot of systems imported. Oh & the vice_sc Core for retroarch & the Hataroid emulator for the st. The retroarch core appears broken on android for now.

all i get is "no such file or directory" . Its having trouble with my rom location apparently. They all work from launchbox though -
Ah i see. I couldn't see that as I didn't have the button bar toggled on. Problem solved then!
