@Lithium1988 if you don't mind I'm going to edit the title of this thread so that it more describes the issue as we know now what it is. Just to help anyone else coming here with the same issue. -
Well glad we figured out what the issue is, and I can only apologise for the inconvenience. I'm sure once Jason is aware hell get it fixed in no time.
-
Yeah, I have just messaged him in our discord about it as well, but he is in the US so asleep no doubt, and its Saturday, so hopefully he can put out a quick fix, if he does you would need to update to the beta for the time being, but retro achievements may be back up by then anyway. This is the first time that retro achievements has gone down since it was integrated into Launchbox, hence this bug not being spotted before.
-
the Retro achievements website is currently offline so I expect that is why.
-
Yeah I am getting the same error on 8.0 beta 5 and it was fine last night. Ill tag Jason here to make him aware. @Jason Carr it looks like if RetroAchievements goes down that it crashes Launchbox as its trying to log into a non available service, you may want to add some code so that it doesn't crash the program if the server isn't reachable.
-
Try logging out of retro achievements and see if it still crashes.
-
Yeah was about to say, I see a retroachievements error there, and there site is down at the moment.
-
Hello to you both and welcome. I notice in the error message you are on Launchbox 7.15, the current version is 7.16 so you could try updating, it may make no difference but its always good to stay current as bugs get squished all the time. Also are either of you using any plugins?
-
Circo did say there may be some small outages this week as they are migrating to a bigger server, after the other got filled up (that was the issue at the weekend). So you may of just got unlucky, or you may have a issue on your end.

By default Launchbox looks in your Launchbox/Games/name of platform folder, if you didn't move your roms there then you need to go to tools/manage platforms and change the path to were your roms are.

Terry Pratchett reference??
-
so if we could just point them somewhere? like to a specific thread. with how to fix it in the time being?
-
yeah I get that, but legit users are coming here every day saying its broken.
-
@Jason Carr can you please address the steam issue, please?
-
Any info at all may help us, or you probably..
-
I have no idea what that means. Good luck with it though.
-
lol, yep, @CriticalCid or @Grila or @eatkinola are far more savvy than I, they may have a workaround.
-
Yeah that's more of a personal preference thing though. I us 3D boxes exclusively in my setup and I love them, each to there own as they say.
