Maybe things have changed, but when I tried SSF you had to deal with mounting images to a virtual drive which was an extra hassle I didn’t want to deal with as the other options worked well enough for me.

Try the Retroarch Kronos core. I use the Mednafen based core mostly for Saturn but a few minor issues are fixed using the Kronos core on some games. (You can use different core per game.)

Same here. I know Kronos has resolution upscaling but I find MAME with a shader looks better and Kronos doesn't run some of the ST-V game I have that MAME does.

Yes. For all these cores you are asking about, you can load the core in Retroarch, and than look under Information and then Core Information and it will list the bios/files needed and if they are required.

If you don't know you don't need it, but for reference here is an explanation: JiffyDOS The vice core has a warp option that can be used to speed up the normally slow C64 disk drive. (Although some games may require slow True Drive Emulation enabled)

The Vice core doesn't need a BIOS unless you are trying to use JiffyDOS.

I was suggesting that for the end user, not as something LB should look at implementing, ?

You could also look at using Reshade to add bezels.

I don't run this system myself, but looking at my MAME software lists roms for that platform, they appear to be mostly dsk which should work with the Retroarch caprice64 core. I would suggest checking out MAME software list packs for that system.

Are you using a 1.0 or 1.1 dump? I get the same thing with the 1.0 version, 1.1 works well. Are you using the english patch as well?

What is the error you get? Also, I have had lots of cdi images that did not convert or were bad quality. The quality of the cdi image depends on the ripper and they often do things like downgrade audio to fit on a standard CD-R size image. On the other hand, I've had almost perfect success rate with gdi and cue/bin images. (Which are a perfect copy of the original media) I would suggest trying to source a different image for the best outcome.

Not really. MAME has better emulation. Although it rendering is done in software. With a good shader it looks good and your machine can run it fine.

Just a heads up for anyone using LEDBlinky and default controls in your MAME custom ctrlr file, make sure in LEDBlinky config that you point to your ctrlr file under the MAME tab. If not, depending on how your LED ports are mapped, you can get some unexpected results since LEDBlinky is reading the default.cfg and game specific cfgs only, not the ones set in your custom ctrlr file.

Not sure what you mean. How bad do you want these 2 games. They do work but it takes a little work and specific workarounds for each. In the end I removed them as I found them boring and too similar and just keep Mario Kart Arcade GP DX through Teknoparrot instead. PS I'll see if I can find the old tutorial which worked for me. Guide 1 Guide 2 If I remember correctly, had to use version 3.15 to set up everything, and then 3.09 to actually play. Can't find the exact guide I used, but lots of good info here: Triforce forum Hopefully that helps. Edit: This might have been the one I used: Mario Kart GP Edit 2: Just reinstalled GP2 with branch 315, it was pretty painless compared to GP1 and runs well.

Can you be specific to the 2 other games you are trying to run? Using the CHD from the mame set, dinoki25 ran fine. Are you sure you have added the path to the CHD location in Demul? mda-c0047.chd should be in the folder named dinoki25 and demul should include the path to the directory that holds the folder dinoki25. Sega System SP games are under Naomi/Naomi2. (Why I didn't see it)

Can you post the version number? Can't help if I can't run it.

I thought dinoki25 was that version: Arcade Database What version of Demul are you using? I tried to test but I don't see the Sega SP option in my version, 180428, and several others I tried.

What emulator are you using. The current CHD from MAME starts fine with no errors. (Although it doesn't run it)

Can you post the command you are using to start the game?

Thanks for the update. Ultimately my cabinet will be using BB exclusively, once Sinden light guns come and all is set up. I guess on the positive side I can save the space from the non theme videos I won't need. ?

No one can verify this option was removed?

When you edit the game details, under emulation if you uncheck use an emulator to play this game, it should directly launch whatever you have set in the launching option. (In your case a bat file) I use Rocketlauncher now as well, but previously I used a batch file, but a generic one so every game didn't need a custom bat file. I keep my Daphne and Singe games in different folders. Obviously the paths have to match your locations and framefiles must be correct. @echo off if "%1"=="ace" set bank= -bank 0 00000011 -bank 1 00110001& goto :start if "%1"=="astron" set bank= -bank 0 00000000 -bank 1 00000000& goto :start if "%1"=="badlands" set bank= -bank 0 00000010 -bank 1 10000011& goto :start if "%1"=="bega" set bank= -bank 0 00000000 -bank 1 00000111& goto :start if "%1"=="cliff" set bank= -bank 0 00000000 -bank 1 01000000 -bank 2 00000000 -bank 3 01111011& goto :start if "%1"=="cobraab" set bank= -bank 0 00000000 -bank 1 01001000& goto :start if "%1"=="esh" set bank=& goto :start if "%1"=="galaxy" set bank= -bank 0 00000000 -bank 1 00000000& goto :start if "%1"=="gpworld" set bank=& goto :start if "%1"=="interstellar" set bank= -bank 0 00110001 -bank 1 00000000& goto :start if "%1"=="lair" set bank= -bank 0 11011001 -bank 1 00100111& goto :start if "%1"=="lair2" set bank=& goto :start if "%1"=="mach3" set bank= -bank 0 01000100& goto :start if "%1"=="roadblaster" set bank= -bank 0 00000000 -bank 1 00000001& goto :start if "%1"=="sdq" set bank= -bank 0 00100001 -bank 1 00000000& goto :start if "%1"=="tq" set bank=& goto :start if "%1"=="uvt" set bank= -bank 0 00000000& goto :start if "%1"=="firefox" set bank= -bank 0 00000000& goto :start if "%1"=="maddog" set "singefile=maddog_cdrom.singe" & goto :startsinge if "%1"=="maddog2" set "singefile=cdrom-maddog2.singe" & goto :startsinge if "%1"=="crimepatrol" set "singefile=cdrom-crimepatrol.singe" & goto :startsinge if "%1"=="drugwars" set "singefile=cdrom-drugwars.singe" & goto :startsinge if "%1"=="timetraveler-v2" set "singefile=dvd-timetraveler.singe" & goto :startsinge if "%1"=="timetraveler-v23d" set "singefile=dvd-timetraveler.singe" & goto :startsinge if "%1"=="lbh" set "singefile=cdrom-lbh.singe" & goto :startsinge if "%1"=="johnnyrock" set "singefile=cdrom-johnny.singe" & goto :startsinge exit /b :start daphne.exe %1 vldp -framefile E:\Daphne\framefile\%1.txt -blend -useoverlaysb 1 -blank_searches -precache -min_seek_delay 1000 -seek_frames_per_ms 20 -homedir . -fastboot%bank% -nocrc -noissues -noserversend -sound_buffer 2048 -fullscreen_window -x 1440 -y 1080 exit /b :startsinge cd daphne_singe daphne.exe singe vldp -x 1980 -y 1080 -fullscreen_window -noserversend -useoverlaysb 1 -framefile E:\Singe\singe\%1\%1.txt -script singe/%1/%singefile% exit /b

Recently updated to version 11.6 from 11.2 and in Big Box (Unified Redux theme), using the video view, it's playing the video snaps, not theme videos as before. So I look in Big Box options and I don't see the option to prefer Theme Videos anymore. Was this removed? Looking in LaunchBox options I see there is now a video priorities section and Big Box does follow that, but having different settings between LB and BB is much better. Who wants a small theme video in LB's sidebar? Am I missing something here?

If the bat file is in the same directory as the AHK, just the filename name is enough. If the bat file is in a different directory, you need the full path + filename. More Info

No real updates, but didn’t really need any. Sounds like you didn’t have it set up right. If you every want to try again, help is available. Depending on your number of devices, which emulators you are using, and how you want it to work, might not even be needed. Since I have a cabinet I over engineer it and hide all extra devices when not needed even if not required. I don’t want any issues or problems from a future Windows update, or emulator upgrade that might screw up my cabinet from being config free for the users.
