Thanks @Rincewind, ill leave this one to you, but ive read that multiple times now and I'm still not sure I understand what he wants or expected?

Sorry @Jason Carr can I just interject here, feel free to delete. what view are you saying is spreadsheet like? If you are in launchbox then all metadata is editable, allways. if you are in bigbox and trying to edit, then yes correct you cant do it from there. If you are trying to edit the views, then there are many free themes to download from the downloads section that change the view to something more pleasing to yourself.

@Gravitymike What like this?

The themes should be in there individual folders so it shouldn't be cluttered, like this.

Some views are hard coded to show that platform image and cant be removed. That's why you have it on that view it cant be removed.

Also uncheck this as well.

Go to options/views/platform list view and cycle it to platform wheel 1.

That second image is not the cinematic view the creator only modified one of the views, you need to cycle to it in the options, or set it to a controller button. You are talking about this theme right? When you cycle to the correct view it should look like this.

Or you could try Futurestate theme which looks like this.

It looks like this on mine.

@Hank7_98 Can you post a screenshot? It depends on what view you are using.

Go on press it!!! lol it will just say you cant..

OH also no it wont work!!!

LOL!!!! back in the early 6.0 days you could!! I used to like it, I was importing all my roms back then, I would hit the big box button and it would launch!! I think Jason decided it was a bug and took it out.

Lol, you sort of answered your own question there. All feedback is good feedback though. Most people do use retro games though, its the main selling point of launchbox. I personally do launch my PC games through it as well though, but I really don't care about the videos at that point as a lot don't download anyway. I would rather it was quick and snappy more than anything else.. Edit: I have no association with the creater of this theme, all opinions are my own.

Yeah, I have only been using it for about a month, but it is the 1st update since I installed it. Only using it for bezels and fades, once I can do that through launhbox ill drop it completely. I know a lot of people rely on it though, so good news for everyone.

Hi all, just thought I would mention my rocketlauncher updated this morning, and it now works with launchbox!!

Yeah it is a pain, but at least it works

You may need to edit your games to point to the new retroarch installation. go to the platform you are having problems with, click on a game then "control a" to highlight them all. Right click and choose edit. in the dropdown choose emulator, then in the next dropdown choose retroarch. See if that works. If it does you will also have to do it for your other systems.

@popy To get betas, go to tools, options, updates, and tick the update to beta releases box, then restart launchbox.

Yeah I have the same problem so it's not just you. Snes downloads as super famicom for me, but I'm in England so actually want that console design bust snes branded. Also again cause I'm in England I want sega megadrive not sega genesis, my platform is named sega megadrive, launchbox says its downloading megadrive video, but I end up with the genesis one. Also I have the turbografx problem as well, I have tried NEC TurboGrafx 16, Nec TurboGrafx-16, TurboGrafx 16, and TurboGrafx-16 and it has never downloaded for me. I am using all default launchbox system names except megadrive which I scraped as genesis then renamed. I did mention about having a list to @Jason Carr on one of the live streams so we could cross reference what we have with what is available but I don't think he has posted one anywhere, he did say in the stream though that there is a turbografx video. So I have no idea how that is named on the server. Sorry I could not help you, but just wanted to say that you are not alone with this issue.

Excellent, the wheels are SO much more responsive now. Thanks @Jason Carr.

Themes are working fine for me.

Excellent thanks @Hexxxer. I'm really liking the new widescreen platform view with details it looks great. Thanks again for your great work.

You are right, a bigbox or launchbox image will have no impact on your emulator, so I would look at task manager when you launch. What's using more ram?
