Any chance of a quick guide how to do a 1G1R dat for Final Burn Neo??. I have created a DAT (arcade only) file from FBN program itself and imported that into the latest build at the time of this post and left everything as default (as it seems to have selected the correct order Region and Languages) selected process DAT bus the command window says, "No titles in the input DAT match your preferences. No DAT file has been created." Any ideas?

Has this theme been updated so it supports showing the marquee of arcade games selected on the main screen (on the actual picture of the arcade machine)??? Also how do you select art work for the names of each system as atm its just a generic font?

Yeah i have download the 'box art' pack for Arcade.....or though isnt that just the same as the MAME flyers? Do we know if adding the marquee to alter with the game selected will be added in an update?, as that would be such a nice touch to the frontend for arcade. Or is it easy to alter yourself?

Ah that makes sense ill give that a go. 2 Other questions.... In the Arcade platform is the Marquee of the Arcade machine supposed to change to what ever game is selected in the wheel? Im not see the box art appear next to the wheel for 80% of games only a few actual have the art appear?

For MAME why am i not getting the game logo art in the wheel its just generic text font

Is there a theme that uses the videos from Hyperspin as have a complete MAME collection fo the hyperspin videos and just wonder if there was a theme for LB that uses these videos?

So i have a fresh install of Launchbox and imported a complete set of NES roms (JPN,USA,PAL) upon finishing scrapping the artwork using Launchbox built in program i noticed there was a ton of Japanese boxart even for games with PAL and USA releases (Castlevania for example)!!. I thought it was odd so looked into the Region Prioritises tab in Options and only North America & United States was ticked Japan wasn't even ticked, so why on earth is Launchbox download Japanese boxart when its not even told to!!?. This has been an on going issue ive had with launchbox for a good while and i still cant believe its not been ironed out yet!!

Ok one of the issue games (well 3 of them) is the Spider-man games, there are to games on the Megadrive that are named Spider-Man, the sega version and then a later game made by Acclaim. For some reason when LB generates the Megadrive list (for PAL only MD games) it seems to make Spider-Man And Venom - Maximum Carnage the default game for that entry and both the other spiderman game secondary games. How do i make all 3 of these games there own entry in the list?

Thanks Auditing the Megadrive worked

So i have a folder which has 518 PAL Megadrive roms in, there are no duplicates at all. Have pointed LB to this folder to generate the list and on completion its reporting there is 508 games in the list not the 518 found in the rom folder. Is there any easy way to find which roms are missing other than going through all 518 and eyeballing each one?

Ok thanks, ill give that a go. Odd that is not already populated though

So im trying to use the RetroArch core, 'Mame 2003 Plus', i have selected the option to 'Import MAME Arcade Games (Full Set)', pointed it towards where my full 'MAME 2003 PLus' roms are and selected RetroArch as the emulator. But when i click on the 'Associated Platforms' tab there is no MAME or even Arcade core available to select let alone the 'MAME 2003 Plus' core i have in my RetroArch 'Core' folder. Can anyone help?

Great, thanks for the heads up!!!

Yeah i guess the older black with white grid would be difficult but the newer Blue style boxart would be easier as you just need the main art work from the US release as the box designs are very similar. Guess it depends how many US titles there are that didnt get a PAL release

Ok, ill hold off. Will you by chance be doing PAL style box art for Games that didnt get a PAL release?

Oh so i can upload the pack i have?

Ok thanks. How come Launchbox doesn't seem to have a full PAL set of box art of the Megadrive?

so it doesnt have to be exactly the same then?

Does it have to be named a specific way?

Since Launchbox seems unable to do a simple task of scraping just PAL Megadrive box art with out also donwload USA Genesis (when i specifically tell it not to download any US boxart what so ever) i would like to know what the easiest way to add my own complete PAL Megadrive box art that i already have?. To say im a bit disappointed with this PAID product and its inability to do a simple task like this where FREE scapper programs are able to do this task is beyond me!?

Hmm, yeah even though im telling it not to download any media for USA and just UK and Japan, it still appears to and media from other countries too. Have uploaded this video of the process....... as you can see it still downloading media from other regions even though its been instructed not to, and for some reason it didnt download artwork for Bare Knuckle 1 & 2 even though i had Japan set as the secondary region to scrape media from. I find it odd that after all this time Launchbox wouldn't have an almost full collection of PAL front box art!??. As i said i have a complete set here for PAL Megadrive box art, i would be happy to share it with Launchbox so they can have a complete set on their servers!?

Thanks for the reply but it still doesn't appear to be working correctly. For a test i completely removed 'United States' and 'North America' form the region priority list and just added United Kingdom and Japan, then re-downloaded the media and meta telling it to overwrite all existing files. After the process had completed i then selected 'Refresh All Media' from the 'Tools' drop down box but its still showing a lot of Genesis box art!. Any ideas?

After you do this should it automatically swap the American image for the Japanese image, or do you have to change it yourself?. I myself would prefer all PAL box art for say Megadrive games but there doesnt appear to be a full PAL megadrive box set on Launchboxs servers?. I do actually have a full (if not almost full) PAL megadrive box artwork pack and would be happy to donate it to Launchboxs servers !?

Will this work for LibreElec for the Raspberry Pi devices??
