My Mame goes to a black screen when exiting seems to be to do with the startup screens when I Alt Tab brings up the game over screen then back to Bigbox

Yeah I might wait until its release to see give me chance to save up also

Lol I know what you are saying here but to me it seems very cool and he has been working on this for a couple of years already as Ive been following him on it unfortunately the release says October but as its kickstarter you know could be issues with production and delays on the way :(

I wanted to share this with the forum if this is against the site rules then I apologies and please remove the post accordingly only sharing a product which I think is awesome and am no way affiliated with the creator of the product Wondered if anyone on here has seen the Sinden Light Gun? Works on LCD screens and CRT without the need for a sensor bar or recalibration the goal has already been smashed after a day but wanted to share with anyone who doesn't know about it here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sindenlightgun/the-sinden-lightgun/description

Hi guys I'm looking to possibly purchase a mini PC due to space requirements I quite like the look of the Intel nuc hades canyon and wondered if anyone has one running with launchbox (bigbox specifically) what the performance is like on one of these machines Thanks in advance

Looks awesome love the pop out keyboard nice touch

Thanks Jason for bringing such cool features and working hard on it cant wait to try it :)

This looks interesting don't know how I missed this ? do you plan on adding an option to view manual or view artwork?

Thanks @Jason Carr and @neil9000 I have no idea what the issue was but I copied the picodrive core settings and now seems to work with no problems so must have been a setting in retroarch itself somewhere

Hi @Jason Carr Great work as always loving the start up screens, I only having 1 issue I use Retroarch for most of my systems and all cores Ive tried seem to work properly apart from the Sega Genesis using the genesisplus core, when I start a game the startup screen starts then straight after the gameover screen appears before the game loads this core works for the others systems flawlessly e.g. Sega Master System, Ive tried the picodrive core and that's seems to work fine Im guessing this could be a core related issue rather than an issue with the startup screen maybe a setting Im missing? I guess I could just use picodrive core just curious what this could be any advice from anyone would be appreciated thanks

In a way I agree with the guy who wouldn't sell it to you as at the end of the day that machine has a big history and a purist as you put it, there are other methods to build a mame machine and have the artwork printed the same as what ever you want I know it may not feel the same but in my opinion is good enough without altering old machines just my opinion

I have approx. 20000 games in the past it did lag a little but recently there has been a lot of performance improvement and now its very comparable and buttery smooth but like neil said depends on specs of your system

I came from a Hyperspin/Rocketlauncher setup and have never looked back the complexity of setting both those up is so time consuming I wish I knew about Launchbox before I even tried but not sure it was about when I went with Hyperspin, Ive personally now stopped using Rocketlauncher aswell I know my around it quite well but for me decided to drop it as I don't need it, a lot of the stuff that I personally use Rocketlauncher for is either already included in launchbox or theres a plugin available to do the same thing launchbox is constantly being developed with new features I cant keep up with all new betas Jason has recently released lol no regrets here and the community is awesome and here to help if you get stuck on anything

WOW!!! mouse pointer disappeared from apps through bigbox works like a charm great work as usual Jason ?

Thanks for the advice I am actually running on a laptop which is quite a beefy laptop though with an i7 processor and 16gb ram maybe the gpu is at fault but will be going on my desktop at some point when my man cave is finished ? which is more powerful than obviously the laptop, currently have 40 systems installed on launchbox with about 11000 games will tinker around with it, the performance is not too bad tbh and has got a lot better with the recent releases, Sounds like a good plan to backup all the xml files just to be sure ?

Hi all Just curious how people are backing up their collection or any advice as what to use incase everything gets lost forever ? also would it be beneficial to store my media on an ssd drive Im currently using an external hard drive but can be slow loading at times thanks in advance

Yup worked for me I use winuae rather than FS-UAE no preference over either just the solution that worked for me although maybe the FSUAE has the huge database so might be better in the long run

I simply got a bulk renamer utility and you can set anything after the _ and rename the roms you can remove and import to launchbox and work like a charm the images will then download for the games that's the way I did it I know there is ways to do it on FS UAE but for me this worked so stuck with it

Ok thanks for the info Ill check it out

Hi Neil Yes Im on beta 2 the only plugin I have in the plugins folder is LaunchboxDB Match I havent touched my setup for a while so maybe I found something previously to add it but not sure its a mystery

Hi Guys I like the integrated pdf viewer but for some reason I have 2 of them 1 called View Manual the other Games Manual 8D not quote sure if it is supposed to be there its only on there on 1 of my systems the other it doesnt appear I thought it might be a plugin but cant see it in the folder any ideas? 2018-01-11_18-40-02.flv

Same here never use my tablet anymore this would be useful to show control layouts this is a great idea

Yeah I've got it all backed up I've learned that hard lesson before, doing a scan on the drive found some errors on it so maybe on its ways out Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Yes unfortunately it is still like this but recently I had a problem with my hard drive where the hard drive kept disappearing think I've got it sorted now though but may some files got corrupted in the process thanks for the info Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

On the latest beta 7.10 beta 2 when I cleanup images I get this error but the process is still running
