  1. And that worked for me. Thanks again!
  2. Anyone know how to fix this? Where do I adjust the margin?
  3. Thanks a ton! Worked for me.
  4. I'm in the same boat. Reducing the display scaling is a sacrifice I cannot make. I'm sure the XML can be fiddled with to suit our needs, more or less. Just gotta figure out which line it is...
  5. So Caffeine is a great idea, but I don't need it to run when a game starts, as I run 99% of my games though RetroArch and it already has a setting to suspend the screensaver. I suppose I could run an AHK script to enable Caffeine, launch Big Box, and then disable Caffeine when I close Big Box. I always sucked at triggering that kind of thing in AHK, though. The problem is that i run Big Box on a laptop which is not used only for gaming. I want the screensaver to behave normally when browsing the web and email, but then have it keep the screen on when Big Box is running. Programs like RetroArch and even YouTube.com can keep the screen alive, so it should be possible for Big Box, right? I also hadn't considered fromlostdays's point that my laptop LCD wouldn't need a screensaver. But all the same, without a screensaver the laptop screen would still turn off after a predetermined time. I don't want my screen staying on all night in case i forget to shut it off. Just keep the screen on while playing Big Box. I suppose I'm in the minority so using an AHK script with Caffeine would be my best bet. EDIT: So Caffeine works to stop the screensaver, but with a caveat: it does this by sending a simulated keypress every 59 seconds. This keypress interrupts the screensaver timeout, but it also interferes and cancels out Attract Mode. Oh well.
  6. Not sure if this is a noob issue or a feature request. I'm really loving Attract Mode on Big Box, but after 15 mins of attract mode my screensaver kicks in and ruins the experience. I certainly know how to disable the screensaver permanently, but what about having Big Box disable the screensaver while it is running? Thanks!
