Correct.

Yeah, Arcade64 isnt supported, it was initially but not for long, we needed to tighten up to try as best we can to prevent cheating.

There is nothing wrong with the current servers, they are working just fine for most people.

Yes there is. If its not showing that could be for several reasons. You are not using the standard MAME emulator, you have cheats enabled or have altered dipswitches, you dont have hi scores showing in the theme you are using, or the theme you are using doesnt support them.

Media doesnt get deleted unless you say yes to deleting it when you delete a platform.

There is nothing for that platform by default, but you can name platforms whatever you like, just type in the empty box rather than picking from the dropdown when importing.

Your windows platform isnt in your associated platform tab (nor should it be usually, but you have a strange use case here). So you need to add it. Launchbox simply doesnt know what core to use, you told it to use Retroarch for that specific game, which is correct, but then you need to tell the emulator itself what core to use when a game is coming from the Windows platform, not the snes one like you show in your image.

Thats on Epic, nothing to do with us, it's part of there security that it only remembers your login for a limited time via a browser, which is what is used here to link to your account.

You need to add the platform as well as the core its to use in the associated platform tab. Tools/Manage Emulators/Retroarch/Associated Platforms tab.

The CHD romset contains all disk dumps known, whether the games run in MAME or not. A lot of those simply do not currently work in MAME at all, so are not really needed. Much like the roms themselves to be honest, there are also a ton in that romset that dont currently run in MAME, but are there regardless and will hopefully become compatible in the future.

Did you leave the "remove roughly matched images" box checked? If so that will make the import take a long long time.

You need to add that platform to the associated platform tab of your retroarch emulator and tell it which core to use, just add it to the empty cell at the bottom of the list.

Well you obviously need to delete the bezels you dont want, otherwise you will have to specifically pick the bezel you want for every game once its loaded.

There is a very old guide here. (632) Super Nintendo Emulation for Beginners with SNES9x - LaunchBox Tutorials - YouTube And do your settings match this image from that video?

Are your snes roms zipped?

Probably needs a command-line to tell it to actually run the rom, but i dont know what that is off hand. I havent used standalone snes9x in over 10 years at this point.

Use the mupen64plus_next core.

Well Arcade doesnt use box - front, it uses advertisement flyers, so if you dont have those checked under your box - front priorities then you wont see them. This is why the priorities are there in the first place, you can add/remove as well as reorder them as you see fit. I cant tell you what to select for your specific build, check the image types you want per image type, in the order that you would like to see them. It's quite straight forward, only want to see box front or flyers for arcade and nothing else where a box is supposed to show, then just check those two image types under the Box - Front image priorities and anywhere a box is shown only those two image types will be shown. Same for screenshot priorities, uncheck anything that isnt a screenshot and arrange the remaining screenshot types in the order of your preference.

Number 4 is the correct one, all the others are the opposite of what i said to do. If you are getting two screenshots there that is because you dont have a box - front so its falling back to another image type based on your priorities for your Box - Front priorities.

Mess is part of mame so either can be used. There is a core just called "mame" which is the kept up to date in line with the standalone version, it is however not currently in the downloader since the recent github attack that caused such havoc a month or two ago.

For me that bottom image is the game video snap, so i assume you dont have any videos so its falling back to a image type. So after removing a video i see it displays a Screenshot - Title Screen for me. Looking in my priorities in Launchbox Title screen is my top preference in the screenshot priority section. So Bigbox is falling back to screenshots if no video and you must have Box - Front checked in that section, and has a higher priority than actual screenshots, why you have done that in the screenshots section i dont know, but you need to either remove Box - Front completely, or move it further down the priority list.

To clarify, they cant update the program as the download gets towards the end but never completes, the same thing when downloading the updataed metadata file, it gets close to the end but never completes. This is not a updating games metadata issue, its files pulled from the servers issue.

I think he means the metadata file, not actual game updates.

No need to post to multiple threads with the same question. I suspect you left the remove roughly matched images option checked in the wizard, that will hugely slow down imports.
