    Arcade Playlist Videos

    in Game Media

    Posted

    Strange!! I imported Mame a few hours ago and asked it to create play lists during the import process eg. Arcade classics, Daphne etc and when I select Tools/download platform/playlist videos, all it shows in the download window is my platforms that I setup the traditional way, but no playlists??

    Any ideas? Running the current beta as of today

    I've found James Bakers videos for playlists like Irem Classics and Cave but notice that the ones downloadable from the link below, do not contain some of the updated versions of the videos shown at the start of Jame's thread. Any idea where I can get these?

    The capcom classics and Cave videos for instance are shown in one of the latest vidoes showing off BB/LB

    I've been out of the loop for quite a while and haven't touched LB/BB. I rather happy with the separate playlists for all the mame roms but wondered if you can initiate a download of all the playlist platform videos or do you have to skip off to the emumovies ftp and add them manually?

    Could someone point me to a description within the forum of how you setup a playlist. A search all be it a short one, came up with no results.

    Cemu help

    in Emulation

    Posted

    I followed Brad's tutorial a while back and decided tonight to play some Wii U but the games are not launching through LB but are through the emulator itself. As far as I can see there are no command line parameters and I've set the default emulator as cemu, but it doesn't want to play ball. I'm trying to run the rpx files but no joy. Is there something I'm missing. I'm using 1.7.0d of cemu and revisiting brads video I can't see any steps I've missed, but I admittedly skipped through it so may have missed something.

    I'm sure I may have made an error somewhere, any ideas what the problem could be?

    I'm happy to post pictures when I get back home...

    MAME set changes

    in Emulation

    Posted

    Seeing as the MAME sets are in 3 different flavours now. 

    Merged

    Split

    Non merged

    Is it correct to assume that the non merged set will be the best for a MAME import, considering that before the split set was suggested and that there were problems importing the merged sets

    Indie Games (PC) custom boxarts collection ( WIP thread / 300+ )

    in Game Media

    Posted

    Hi Aurel, great work on the indie box art. I wondered how you added your collection. I see you have them under Windows Indie. Having not added any PC games yet I'm not familiar with the process. I see there is a add pc games feature and add steam game feature. One of your games "the binding of Isaac" I have on steam. I assume whether or not it's on steam or not they will all come under PC games?

     

    Theme Questions

    in Big Box Custom Themes

    Are there any themes out there that completely remove the details and description areas and use that space for larger videos etc.?

    Also this is likely a dumb question but I wondered can the views be set per system or do they have to be universal for all? Mame I want the theme videos to take up most of the space along with the cleartype logos but on NES I'd like the box art as well as video to display. If that makes sense.

    Thanks,

    - Hubz

    The city hunter theme is awesome and most of what you want to do is achievable but as far as I know you cannot have different views per system. The view you select is universal. I maybe wrong so please correct me if this is the case. I know however that there are a load of setting within the menus for LB that will determine what is displayed. Brad's video is awesome and so is the theme. I think I did make a request for this a while back on bitbucket but marked it as non urgent. To be truthful I'm happy enough with city hunter and the look I have now.  Having different views per system would be cool, but I'd rather have other more important things added like the new audit feature than views per system.

    I'm not a programmer and don't have the knowledge to make a theme, so I'm not sure of the the work that would be needed to add this feature. I'd hazard a guess and say that changes would have to be made to LB and that you couldn't just modify a theme, but what do I know :)

    Anyway, enjoy

     

     

     

    Audit feature

    As far as I know, the Audit tool doesn't delete the media either. I know Jason wants to wrap up media cleaning when deleting games and / or make it a lot better, but you still currently need to use the Image Clean Up Tool. As for the images, I don't know if that would confused users. I have been telling people about dropping in their own artwork, as long as it's named after the game or rime file you're good. The reason it adds the number is because of multiple images per category, but I do see how it is confusing... I wonder what else could be added in that regard?

    Thank you Brad!

    I'm very happy with this feature, it beats making huge lists of what I have missing :)

     

    Audit feature

    I just saw Jason's video detailing the various functions of the audit system and I'm so impressed. I think LB just keeps on getting better and better :)

    There are a couple of things I wanted to ask Brad or Jason....

    In the above mentioned video you talk about duplicate artwork and being able to delete artwork. I'm not sure I've edited a game and right clicked an image for deletion before, but I have deleted a game from the LB list and it seems that the artwork remains. Is being in the standard game menu and deleting a game act differently from the audit window with regards to what happens when you delete content?

    I also wanted to ask about naming of images... I see the default naming convention for downloaded images seems to be game name-01.jpg. When filling in some gaps in some cases the artwork I've added wouldn't display using this naming convention and I've had to name the image in the same way as imported rom file. I wondered if this will confuse the audit process?

    Anyway, lovely feature, excellent work

     

    Amiga Emulation / FS-UAE: A Comprehensive Tutorial + Launchbox Integration

    in Videos

    Posted

    Hi Zombeaver!

    I started to add Amiga stuff to LB but didn't finish doing so. Today I saw a post saying the launcher program I believe you mention in your tutorial is no longer needed. Will you be adding a little pop up to your YouTube video to remind us of this and to skip some step, because I'm bound to forget this when it come time for me to add the system.

    The tutorial. Is top notch by the way! Did you get anywhere with doing a CD32 videos?

    Database progress

    in Contributions

    Posted

    I added loads of systems a while back and have been painstakingly filling in the gaps and it dawned on me that it might just be better to update the meta data through the LB program.

    I have a couple of questions,

    Is there a status list of where you guy are at with the system databases? Is the bitbucket link where I'll find the info?

    I see the guidelines for submitting which I've scanned through but wondered in what format a where you enter the information for system games. I also wondered how you can view what is already entered into the specific database you want to work on, is it a xml file?
