I edited the script for nomousy and everything is closing correctly again but I am now loosing background music on exit. I have to exit out into options and then back into platforms in order to get music playback.
Run, C:\LaunchBox\Nomousy\nomousy.exe /hide $Esc:: { Run, C:\LaunchBox\Nomousy\nomousy.exe }The ahk in this above quote fixed the issue for me.

I deleted my autohotkey script entirely as others have mentioned and I can at least send the close command twice. Only graphics focused background process running is GeForce experience.
O, and I also remembered that certain pcsx2 versions dont close correctly within BB. Try downgrading your pcsx2 to the latest stable version. or upgrade to the latest beta.
and delete geforce experience. see if that helps

I am having the same issue. I don't have afterburner running. On exiting PCSX2 it drops me back to the desktop, weird thing is that the big box process is still running and I have to close it out through task manager.
Make sure you turnoff riva statistics. And whatever other backround process that may be open. Try to narrow it down

Is the GPD Win 2 a thing? I'm holding out for the PGS.
Pgs is a confirmed fake. No known prototype exist. And they were removed from kickstarter.

So I had the same issue with PCSX2 then just deleted the script. Works fine in big box and doesn't crash but I do have to escape twice out of the emulator.
yea. i tried deleeting script. And you are riight, you then have to close pcsx2 twice. which is not possible with controller.
But i fixed my issue by turning off msi afterburner. as long as afterburner is running,,,pcsx2 would never close correctly via controller automation

it seems the more I progress the further I fall back.
I have everything I mean everything set up correctly but bigbox won't launch from kodi.
I found the issue the settings somehow messed up where big box application is located...
it's In C/user/me/launchbox but inside kodi my user file is missing so I can't locate big box exe.
to at a Superbowl party I was gonna demo all my hard work to family and friends but not with out big box set up correctly.
show some screenshots when you get around to it of the folder locations etc

playstation games work pretty well yep. And I'm using retroarch + light shaders for 8 / 16 bit systems.
Search on google / video and you'll find plenty of vids showing various emulators on this tiny thing : )Bigbox is a bit heavy for the GPD Win, I'm using Attract Mode now, another frontend, very light on the RAM , CPU and SSD.
(I still love and use Launchbox/BigBox on my main machine.)yesss...i agree. Bigbox is amazing on the desktop. especially on a 55inch tv.
thanks for your response!! Im going to wait for the gpd win 2. Wait until the 1st gen kinks are worked out. Im just glad the foodgates have been opened for handheld gaming pc's!!

Hi,
I recently bought a fantastic super small device called GPD Win. It's a windows 10 handled console, shaped as a 3DS, and I'd like to use BigBox on it.
I made some tests, and it runs pretty ok.But this device is very CPU and Ram limited, so I'd like BigBox to be closed after launching a game. Would this be possible? : )
EDIT : should you be curious, more infos on the GPD Win here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/gpd-win-intel-z8700-win-10-os-game-console-laptop#/
Hi. did you try retroarch on the GPD WIN??? as well as epsxe? if so, how do they run??? Does bigbox affect emulation performance?? thanks!!

I have a problem with BigBox and Demul when quit from dreamcast games.
Quit Work fine , the problem is that when I quit Demul with combo that by default use launchbox, the software fails to return to launchbox. Launchbox closes but if we press CTRL + ALT + Delete the bigBOX processes are still open.
What can it be ?Ok, I had the same issue recently. And this is the known solution:
1. Download attached files and put them in location of your choosing. (these files are to hide the mouse cursor when demul is running.)
2. copy and paste this command in the autohotkey box for demul:
QuoteRun, K:\Naomi\nomousy.exe /hide
$Esc::
{
Run, K:\Naomi\nomousy.exe
}
3.Edit the command to reflect where u put the "no mousy" exe
And you should be fine after that. It should close normally within bigbox.
Disclaimer: I have no idea why this works and dont know much about AHK commands. I just followed these instructions from another thread and it worked for me. good luck!

i apologize if I'm not of any assistance. But I personally used mame in retroarch about a month ago. However, I went back to stand alone mame after a few days because retroarch mame was lacking in many features. Most notably , there is no way to set "per game controls" and the more demanding titles "rival schools, tekken, umk3, killer instinct, etc" crash and glitch. IMHO, You are not missing much.
I will say that retroarch is a GOD send for all other retro consoles though. Especially the saturn. With scanline filtes, custom 4:3 borders etc. AMAZING!!

Awesome, thanks! I'll definitely look into this for sure!
Same thing was happening to me with megaman 8 and castlevania. worked in epsxe but not retroarch.
Solution ended up being to get the iso's from a different site.

UPDATE: I solved the issue. When I have MSI AFTERBURNER running in the backround,,,pcsx2 exits to desktop when using controller automation.
Now that the cause for this bug is known....hopefully it can be fixed in the next launchbox beta, thanks guys!
-
as of version 7.5 bigbox still exits to desktop upon closing pcsx2 when using controller automation . I tried it on 2 pc's and a laptop with with a fresh windows install. Just bumping this topic. thanks!

Ok, as of version 7.6 , i am facing the following issues.
AHK sript for "no mousy" is no longer working in any emulator i try it on "demul, retroarch".
And gamepad automation exit isnt working on pcsx2. When i try to exit pcsx2 with gamepad,, bigbox closes and puts me back on desktop. (Escape key on keyboard works fine)
When i revert back to LB version 7.0. everything works perfect.
I know i made a similar thread before. But i just wanted to condense all the issues im having into 1 thread as a point of reference.
The following ahk scripts use to work,,,but now dont as of 7.6
Run, C:\LaunchBox\Nomousy\nomousy.exe /hide
$Esc::
{
Run, C:\LaunchBox\Nomousy\nomousy.exe
And
Run, R:\LaunchBox\Emulators\Demul\nomousy\nomousy.exe /hide
$Esc::
{
Run, R:\LaunchBox\Emulators\Demul\nomousy\nomousy.exe
Process, Close, demul.exe
}
}
-
UPDATE: Downgrading back to version 7.0 solved all my pcsx2 exiting issues.
Hopefully this bug is squashed eventually. thanks!

It's the Process, Close AHK command that is causing the issue.
http://forums.launchbox-app.com/topic/35041-exiting-demul-closes-bigbox/
Yes, I been to that thread. And the AHK in that thread fixed my issues with demul and retroarch.
But pcsx2 still gives problems upon exit. Is this only happening to me?
NOTE: When using escape key on keyboard...im able to exit pcsx2 fine. The error only happens when i use controller tro exit emulator.
Also, I have two pc's. and both show the same symptoms. I cant track down the common denominator.

I use my PC on big TV & like to start PC up & get straight into playing games & although not an issue I think that by now Launch Box/Big Box Is everyone's number one choice as a front end for games you should have the option to automatically start Big Box after Windows has loaded without having to touch the mouse & keyboard.
I currently use the BigBox Launcher third party file to achieve this however once Big Box has loaded I have to switch to desktop mode & restart Big Box as the Big Box Launcher file does not play well with Windows games in the xbox app like Forza Horizon 3, something to do with explorer.exe. It would we nice if this feature was implemented into Launch Box/Big Box as myself & like many other people use the PC as a monster gaming console rather than a regular PC.
I personally use Kodi. I set my pc to boot kodi on boot. And launch Big box from that.
I then have the option to exit bigbox and launch steam Big picture for windows games.
Not sure if this will work for your setup, but just throwing some ideas out there.

Is Bigbox crashing? You can look inside your windows event viewer to see if it notes BB crashes. I can't think of any other reason why that would happen.
no bb crashes in event viewer. However i notice when BB closes, it remains open within task manager.

I don't know, my exiting from pcsx2 to BB seems to work fine and with default ahk script. did you try changing the BB exit mapping to something other than escape just to see if the problem stops with pcsx2?
yes i changed keyboard mapping for "exit" and "back". the issue still persist. thanks

that's weird. can you post what is in that default script? how are you exiting the game exactly?
Yes. I use controller button combination as well for exiting emulators within big box. "back+L1" to be specific.
It works fine in all emulators except pcsx2.
and not to veer off topic too much, the same thing started happening with other emulators after recent LB updates. And this auto hotkey script fix the issue:
Run, C:\LaunchBox\Nomousy\nomousy.exe /hide $Esc:: { Run, C:\LaunchBox\Nomousy\nomousy.exe }but,,, that this doesnt work with pcsx2.

; This section closes PCSX2 when pressing Escape
$Esc::
{
Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}}
}^^^that's the default script.
thanks!

Every time I exit pcsx2, bigbox closes, and im returned back to desktop. This only started happening after recent updates.
Is this a known issue?? Im using the default Auto hotkey script by the way,
thanks

This shouldn't really be under the launchbox game database forums.
Try downloading the addon from this page - Kodi Addon for LaunchBox
Let me know if this solves the issue.
I think you downloaded the old version which had a few issues.
hi. Thank you for taking the time to respond to my post. Your solution worked. Updating to new verison fixed all issues.

Hello all.
Im having an issue when launching bigbox mode from KODI.
When launching BB mode from kodi. Everything works fine. But when I exit BB mode to get back to Kodi...kodi freezes and I have to force close kodi.
This doesnt happen everytime though. This only happens when Ive been using bb mode for an hour or so loading various emulators.
Sidenote: I use "launcherforkodi" program to prevent Kodi from taking focus whenever bigbox is open.
And i notice that upon exiting BB mode. It is still open in task manager as "BIGBOXMODE- AHK"
Any help is appreciated. thanks as always!!!

I strictly use bigbox. So exiting with controller automation works with the ahk i quoted earlier. As far as exiting from launchbox desktop mode....i just use alt+enter , then manually close it by clicking "x". Which doesnt bother me bc i hardly ever use desktop mode.
