I cannot find the "sort order" feature. Where is it located?

Some of the games that show up in Launchbox simply do not show up in Bigbox. None of the "hide" options are enabled in settings. I cannot figure out why? What am I doing wrong? As an example, you can see "gears of war 5" listed in the "windows" platform on launchbox (top left corner) In Bigbox mode Gears 1 and 4 are listed, but Gears 5 is missing. This theme is "The POC". I tried switching to others, but the problem is the same.

This was my answer. Go to "edit game > emulation", check the "use custom command line params" box then use --config "\path\title.config.toml" All of the actual config can be done in notepad and/or xenia manager. Unfortunately you will have to do this for every game. I hope this helps the next person.

Has anyone found a solution to this? Launchbox default method works, but fails to use the custom config file unique to the game = \path\emulator.exe "\path\game.iso" Setting Xenia Manager as the emulator works and launches the game with the proper config file but LB/BB doesn't support this = "\path\xenia manager.exe" "Game title" The problem is launchbox wants a rom in the path and the "application command-line params" cannot be used unless a rom is specified. The shortcut fix described above does not work and making an emulator for each game crazy. No way I am the only one with this problem. I may end up writing a powershell script to launch 360 games if nobody has any ideas.

I need BOTH "full wall view" (no info shown, only titles) and "wall view" (seem image posted by Mermsky) . I am running the launchbox plugin for Kodi and would like the interfaces to match as much as possible. it would also be nice to have a view that resembles STEAM. Would it be possible to control the size of the covers shown?

Sounds like it will work for me

I have over 600 PS2 titles and never come across the need for this. I'm not trying to be a jerk, just want to know if this can help to improve my experience. What I do have need for is the ability to save video settings for certain games. I've yet to find a need to change button mapping for a single game.

I still don't understand. If I have the buttons mapped to a controller, why would I ever need to change them for a specific game/title? Why not simply change them within the game itself? Can someone maybe provide an example?

I have everything mapped to Xbox One Controllers. I don't understand the need for this tool. What game is this useful for?

Your right about the custom filtering. In fact the filtering makes the process of adding games in bulk to a custom section faster. I think that #Tagging is better if for a person that wants to add 1 game easily without having to switch from big box to desktop mode. It could have other applications as well. For example: the 10 games with the highest play count numbers automatically get the #Top10 tag and are displayed in a custom section/wheel. Ease of use is what separates Launchbox from Hyperspin and other front ends. I think a tagging system would bring Launchbox more users.

I was thinking about making custom sections/wheels... So I went ahead and created a new unknown platform and added all my favorite games to it. Each game has a batch file that takes care of proper launching. I always found creating a multi-emulator wheel cumbersome in Hyperspin.... But what if - we could create a new "custom" section/platform - give it a name - give it a #HashTag Now when scrolling through your list of games you can simply add the #HashTags associated to the "custom" section(s) of your choice. Now that game will "appear there" until the tag is removed. It would be nice to have a section called "broken games" - any game marked as "broken" automatically gets the #Broken tag would also be nice to have a "no art" section - any game with no art automatically gets the #NoArt tag Is this sort of thing possible? Am I thinking too hard about this?

I never heard of vjoy or tankstick... I'm out of touch on a lot of things... lol NO - the xpadder commands will only work for xpadder If you are able to map the AH buttons using the config tool that comes with the ROM, there is no need for xpadder or any other button mapper. It sounds like you just need to make a universal exit button (like the one described above).

I am in the process of making a youtube video that will help you out a lot! It covers using xpadder with plex and launchbox. I also show some of the batch files used to execute various tasks. 1. to make a batch file open notepad 2. save the file as "FileName.bat" (putting .bat at the end is key) you can specify within the batch file the same commands typically used in the windows CMD. Sample 1 (here is my Arcana Harts launcher) - I use 4 wireless Xbox One controllers for EVERYTHING. Some of my games do not support them, so I use xpadder to map them to keyboard buttons. Line 1 - launches xpadder and sets "XInput0 (aka player 1)" and "XInput1 (aka player 2)" to the Arcana P1 and P2 profiles "C:\Folder\Xpadder\Xpadder.exe" "Arcana P1.xpadderprofile" "Arcana P2.xpadderprofile" Line 2 - launches the actual game "C:\GamePath\GameLauncher.exe" Line 3 - After I close the game using my exit button (press select for 10 sec - esc+alt+f4), set all for controllers back to the "launchbox" xpadder profile "C:\Folder\Xpadder\Xpadder.exe" "Launchbox.xpadderprofile" "Launchbox.xpadderprofile" "Launchbox.xpadderprofile" "Launchbox.xpadderprofile" Sample 2 (Launchbox launcher) - My Plex xpadder profile allows me to use the analog sticks to move the mouse and triggers to right/left click. I also have all of the plex media controls mapped to the other buttons. My player 1 controller has a "chatpad" attached, I use this as a keyboard. On my HTPC, Plex or Launchbox is ALWAYS on. So it is assumed that if Launchbox is closing, plex will be opening! In the batch file below If launchbox is closed, the plex profile is auto launched... thus allowing me to browse windows/internet or control XBMC/Plex all from my Player 1 controller. Line 1 - launches xpadder and sets all 4 wireless Xbox one controllers to the launchbox profile "C:\Folder\Xpadder\Xpadder.exe" "launchbox.xpadderprofile" "launchbox.xpadderprofile" "launchbox.xpadderprofile" "launchbox.xpadderprofile" Line 2 - actually opens Launchbox "C:\path\bigbox.exe" (launchbox must be set to use all controllers for navigation) Line 3 - After closing launchbox change "XInput0 aka player 1" xpadder profile "Plex". Notice that only Player 1 gets the plex profile. "C:\Folder\Xpadder\Xpadder.exe" "Plex.xpadderprofile" "launchbox.xpadderprofile" "launchbox.xpadderprofile" "launchbox.xpadderprofile"
