That specific plugin keeps the highlited menu option in the center of the list, instead of say scrolling to the bottom of a list. So the actual list scrolls, not the box that highlites it.

It has to be what you called the platform when you imported it. Launchbox needs to know which core to load when starting a Sega Dreamcast game as that is what you called the platform in Launchbox, so if that exact platform isnt in the associated platform tab it doesnt know what to load the game to. For example you cant import a Nintendo 64 platform, then in the associated platforms section call the platform SNES, it obviously wont know what to do with Nintendo 64 now as there would be no core associated with the platform.

Shaders are done by the emulater, and most don't support any at all. What emulator are you using?

You have Stga Dreamcast in the associated platform tab.

That would be correct if it was a error in the actual program, but its not. Launchbox does not know how any emulator needs to be setup, this is because you can use any emulator you like and your roms can be in any file format you like, there is simply no right or wrong way to import a system, it completely depends on the emulator and the files being used. This is not a lack of error logging, in the UI, simply because there is no error happening, the only error here is between chair and computer. Also why are you calling the platform Sega Dreamcast when that isnt the platform you are importing, that isnt going to help matters either, and again thats a choice you have for some reason decided to make and not a problem with Launchbox, it just does what you tell it, if that info it is fed is just a jumbled mess and incorrect what is Launchbox supposed to do about it?

MAME itself MUST know where your roms are located or they wont load, Launchbox is passing the rom name to MAME, not the actual file. As for game count that will depend on if you changed any filters in the fullset import wizard, but its usually between 2800 and 2900 actual imported games. In my case its 2852.

lol, thats just simply not true, its the easiest to use frontend there is. Try reading my previous reply, you are doing it wrong, thats your fault, not the programs.

Also i'm pretty sure "substituting Dreamcast for Noami" is your issue, both for why they dont work, and your "attitude" for there being no messaging in the UI. Dreamcast and Arcade games that use a Dreamcast emulator usually need different emulator settings, you are simply using the wrong tutorial video, thats not the fault of the program, or the forums, its you using the wrong tool for the job.

Because AES and MVS are exactly the same rom, its just the bios that dictates whether it loads in Arcade or Console mode. Right click the platform and edit, second option is "scrape as"

The .m3u files are temporary and only created when the game is launched and only stored in the temp folder, nothing is edited/added to your actual rom folders. In Retroarch you need to "eject" the disc first. So go to disc control. Then eject disc. Then current disc index. Which will list the discs.

We do not support pre-built builds here on the official forums. We have no idea how the creator built the image so cannot provide support for them, as seems to be the issue here, a pre-built with problems.

Sounds like you have that button set to "close active window" in Bigbox, that is the command use to close the emulator. Try changing that to something different, a combo of two buttons is normally best to avoid accidental triggers.

I was going easy, just saying if you want help with a specific theme, you should actually say what that theme is, otherwise you are unlikely to get any replies as people dont know what your post is in relation to.

If you are having issues with a theme, it might be wise to actually name that theme in your post.

Video priorities were new in i think version 11.0.

Same problem again fella, its you, not us. Kill Avast with fire, seriously.

That is exactly what i was asking, is that part of the MAME arcade set (the one we all know of and use) or the MAME software list set (the one that includes consoles and more specifically old computer systems) that very often use cassettes or discs as there media. I have since learned that the stuff you are talking about is in fact part of the MAME Arcade romset. So that was the question i as asking, and the fact that you are so confused about the answer yourself must mean we both have more to learn about MAME, it is not just a arcade emulator, but also often a computer emulator.

As in these games are not part of a standard MAME romset?

Cassette games make me think software list?

Just a quick explanation, AV's go on number of installs, so if a million users have the same file installed and none of them have reported issues that file is presumed safe. The issue here is a relatively niche product (not to us its not, but in general PC terms it is) that then has a beta that only a small percentage of that already niche audience actually installs, means no info to go on, so the AV assumes virus/trojan whatever. Its a shitty way of going about antivirus to be honest.

The betas often do, with crappy AV's that is. Generally official releases dont, but betas due to the quick turnaround may flag. So yes false positive.

Yeah it wont, its not really a system. Import the .sfc files and use the snes9x core is the easiest way.

Agreed 100%, if the info is not known leave empty, do not fill empty fields with generic terms.

Merged your two threads as there is no need at all for two for the same problem. Dolphin has everything needed for it to run included, so i dont know what you have going on here, maybe some images would help, like whats in your dolphin folder, and the edit emulator screen in Launcbox for your dolphin entry?

Well your specs are almost identical to mine, i have the 3700X, RTX 2080 Super, Samsung 970 Pro nVME C: drive which also has Launchbox on it, and 32GB of Corsair 3000mhz ram, so apart from the CPU (which mine is the range down, but still very capable) and probably a different brand SSD (I specifically got the best one on the market at the time) our specs are the same, and i am having zero performance issues with these betas (excluding the first couple that is). So that would lead me to believe that your issues are related to other software on your PC, or Windows itself. Have you tried a fresh install of Launchbox in a different location, does that display the same symptoms?
