It took 30 minutes of swapping controllers, restarting Big Box, thinking "wait, which one is button 7?!" etc. but I got there in then end ?

There is currently no RetroArch core that supports the Neo Geo CD.

Thanks @SentaiBrad, I came up with a solution though. Found two button numbers common to all three of the pads I use, my iBuffalo SNES pads, Gamecube, and 360 pad. Now, if I have either the SNES or 360 pads connected, holding Start + A exits. The corresponding buttons on the GC pad is holding Z + Y. Hopefully I don't encounter any games that would use those button combos! I'll log a ticket for per controller configs though, that would be really beneficial for users I think. I know some people like to use original pads for systems, as long as the pad is connected before launching Big Box it would be fine, but hotswapping would be even sweeter ?

Hi guys, so I just set up a Mayflash Gamecube adapter to use my original pad, all working great so far. One issue though is that there is no Select button on a GC pad. As I have set up Big Box to exit when I hold Select and press Start, I am unable to get back to Big Box. Are controller automation settings saved per controller and, if so, could I change this perhaps to hold Z and press Start? Then if I launch Big Box with my 360 pad it automatically loads the configuration for that pad, i.e. Select + Start to exit?

I got goosebumps when I saw this topic title, all the Disney games were a nightmare when I imported my games as I had to rename all my clear logos, 3d boxes, and videos. At least it's all done now, but I really could have done with the alternate naming solution being implemented sooner!

Thanks @spycat, I downloaded Xpadder and assigned my F12 key to the Select button on my pad to exit Streets of Rage Remake. However, do you know if it is possible to make the F12 key a button combo on my pad? I'd like to use Start + Select to exit as this is what I use for all my other games in LaunchBox and it is less likely that a second player would press it by mistake (I have button mashing friends).

Thanks for this! Now I can see my platform videos without banners obscuring the view. once @reignstumble's icon pack has been edited to be smaller I'll add them back in ?

Honestly, in my opinion, LaunchBox/Big Box is the easiest thing I have ever set up since I got into emulation ten years ago. RetroArch is easy to use too if you play around with it for an hour. Of course there is always room for usability improvements in software like this, but you've got to expect some level of tinkering by the end user when so many emulators and programs can be launched from and integrated into a frontend such as this. To me, it's more rewarding too when you figure something out, or gain knowledge from a great community like this ?

I have tried all the options in the default theme but I don't think it's possible at the moment. Maybe @JasonCarr could add it at a later date.

I split mine into Neo Geo, CPSI, CPSII, CPSIII (all using RA FBA cores for shaders and options), Model 2, Model 3, and an arcade folder with a full MAME set. I prefer it this way for emulator purposes, as Brad said, and I like being able to get to those games more quickly from the main menu wheel in Big Box. I am a huge Neo Geo fan and consider it a home console due to the AES. It also has a full set of 3D boxes which look great in Big Box. I got 3D boxes for the three CPS systems too ?

That is so weird, I was thinking about this this morning and was about to post a topic about it! This would be a very handy feature, especially with a platform like Nintendo 64, where some games play better on one emulator than another, being able to switch on the fly like this would be great.

I think only certain cores support cheats, like Snes9x for SNES and not bsnes cores. http://libretro.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6916 Where did you get the working cheat files for the GenplusGX core? Are they from this Libretro thread? I must set that up ?

Thanks!

Hi guys, I've been setting up my Model 3 games in Big Box and it seems we do not have clear logos in the LaunchBox Games DB for a few of these games. I had a look at EmuMovies, the Hyperspin forums, and through Google and could not find any clear logos for the following games: Emergency Call Ambulance Harley-Davidson & L.A. Riders L.A. Machineguns Magical Truck Adventure Ski Champ Virtua Fighter 3 Team Battle I took high resolution screenshots from Supermodel which I hope will help for making nice clear logos. Just click on the images for the full resolution. I know it's asking a lot, but I'd be very grateful if someone could make clear logos from these images please

Hmm, I got this to work last week by force importing it to my Neo Geo platform, then manually editing the emulator to MAME.

Thanks @DivinityCycle, that was fast!

The LaunchBox Games DB/Emumovies seems to be missing quite a lot of Wii stuff, is there any chance someone could make clear logos for Excite Truck and No More Heroes please? http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/suda51/images/0/03/NoMoreHeroes.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20090721041143

Ah I see, thanks for clarifying.

I didn't realise Demul played Cave games either! I guess I 'll have to create a Cave platform now in Big Box and die every 3 seconds in some bullet hell shooters

@SentaiBrad would you mind telling me what software you used to compress your images please? Also, can this also be done with a similar program for PS2 isos?
