Speaking of achievements, it seems like steam achievement icons are mixing up with the new update. I manually cleared the achievements cache images from the Cache-LB folder and they're still getting mixed up. Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R achievement icons are showing up on Melty Blood Actress Again: Current Code.

@Phox can you confirm you're reported issue is corrected in this release?
Issue has been fixed, thank you!

Here's a small bug I found using Vertical Wheel 2 on the new Default Theme when there's only one game present on a list.

Setting Default Startup View to All Games means it shows all your games, regardless of category/platform. I just did it myself and its showing all my games from all platforms and categories.
This is the only option you have to change to do so, on my end.
Then you choose View All Games from the BigBox main menu, and it should work.

Go to BigBox Options > Views > Default Startup View, and set that to All Games.

Yes, it costs $10 for a yearly license, or $25 for a forever license.

After the latest beta update, its safe to say that I have no more issues with my controller crashing LaunchBox. Thank you very much @Jason Carr!

That's pretty odd. I haven't been able to replicate this, unfortunately. That said, I have some code in for the next beta that should at least help it to stop crashing if it happens again.
Looking forward to testing it out! I will give feedback when it does.

I'm using my OnePlus 7 Pro. I do not have any other controller to test with. I've provided the debug log file from the crash.
Suddenly, LaunchBox for Android has stopped crashing when I used my Xbox controller. Everything seems to be working fine for now. I am not sure what caused the sudden crashing with my controller.

I have a Series S controller (Exactly the same as yours but white instead of black) and using on a Amazon Fire HD10 tablet, no issues at all. What hardware are you using, and do you have another controller you can test with?

@Jason Carr I can confirm that even using an official Xbox wireless controller (series x), pressing the dpad, analog sticks, or triggers will cause LaunchBox for Android to crash.

Yes, would could add that, but it wouldn't really be a good solution. Previously, it's been discussed to do that on the games database; that way at least it updates it for everyone. But I haven't jumped on any of that yet.
Ah, I understand. Placing it in the games database seems like a good solution. Thank you very much for your feedback, Jason.

This is a known issue. Unfortunately there aren't many good solutions for it currently. The retro achievements guys are working on an updated API which should help, but currently the name was the only piece of information provided that we could use to match them up.
So, is there any way to add a new input field specifically for the RetroAchievements game name? So then it can always find the correct achievements list? But since they are working on an updated API, then it should possibly fix this issue too.

I think a while back they mentioned something about placing ,The in front or end of game with an option, thought this could help but can't find an option so maybe hasn't been implemented yet.
Ah, I see. Though, there are other examples of this differential game name issue that doesn't involve ", The." Such as game names that incorporate alternative regional titles like Neo Turf Masters, which is called "Neo Turf Masters | Big Tournament Golf" on the RetroAchievements website, and the achievements won't show up unless you change the game name to that in LaunchBox.

So, I've been tinkering with the 10.15 release of LaunchBox and BigBox, and there is an issue with RetroAchievements not showing up for certain games that use different game names from the LaunchBox Games Database. For example, I have to rename "The Simpsons" to "Simpsons, The" in my Arcade games just to get the achievements to show up.
I've posted a thread about this issue in troubleshooting a few days ago. I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to manually add a link to the proper RetroAchievements page to my LaunchBox game entry so the achievements show up. -
As you can see from the screenshot, the LaunchBox Games Database game name differing from the RetroAchievements game name causes the achievements not to show up.

Hello, all. I've run into an issue with certain games that won't show RetroAchievements information when I select them. I believe it has something to do with how they're named on the RetroAchievements website, since the names sometime don't match up with the LaunchBox Games Database names. Is there a workaround to fix this without renaming my games?
An example of this issue would be Neo Turf Masters under the arcade platform. On RetroAchievements its named "Neo Turf Masters | Big Tournament Golf," while on the LaunchBox Games Database, it's named "Neo Turf Masters." Another example would be The Simpsons. On RetroAchievements, the game is named "Simpsons, The," while on the LaunchBox Games Database, its named "The Simpsons."Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

If you use the Sort Title field, make sure that every entry is unique. If you use the same entries, LaunchBox will just randomly sort items that are the same. In other words, if you want all consoles under consoles, then the Sort Title field should be "Consoles Nintendo Entertainment System", "Consoles, Sega Genesis", etc.
Alrighty, I can sort that out. Thank you very much!

I've been having a tiny issue with the sort title option. I entered the word "Consoles" on my Nintendo Entertainment System and Sega Genesis platforms' sort title field, and LaunchBox is placing Sega Genesis on top of Nintendo Entertainment System. So it seems to be ordering them in reverse order for some reason.

I'm completely lost on that; it's an issue I've never seen before. Can you zip up and PM me your data folder (if you haven't already)?

I remember this coming up before. All I can figure is that maybe you have a platform or a playlist named All? Do you have any files named All.xml in LaunchBox\Data\Platforms or LaunchBox\Data\Playlists?
I do not have a platform or playlist named "All". I checked all my folders in LaunchBox.

Hey Jason, before you release 8.6, I did find a few little things that were unusual with LaunchBox. The "All" item would show up in the "Download Platform/Playlist Theme Videos" prompt, and it is also selectable with the Audit feature. If I remember correctly, it wasn't selectable before...
EDIT: "All" also showed up in the Manage Platforms prompt as well, but I deleted it so I didn't take a screenshot of it. It also shows up in the "Scan for Added ROMs" and "Scan for Removed ROMs" menu items.

Steam Deck UI Soundpack
View FileHere is a sound pack I put together that uses the new Steam Big Picture mode SFX found on the Steam Deck. Just extract and drag the Steam Deck UI folder into LaunchBox's Sounds folder.
