Hi, I have a Bliss-box 4-play, the older version. I have it setup to use with Dolphin, and I have had it setup in the past with retroarch. Retroarch uses "Controller profiles", and last time i used it, they weren't updated, so some controllers wouldn't be mapped correctly. Not sure if this is fixed now or not Rumble has worked fine with GameCube and Dreamcast controllers (haven't tried an n64 controller, but i guess it would be the same) But PSOne/PS2 controllers use more power and require external power supply, so i just use my PS3 controllers. I'll fire up a fresh installed Retroarch tomorrow and give it a try and get back to you then if you like

Thank you for your kind words. I am in no way an artist, so drawing the small icons takes me a long time, but I will be recycling them for other themes in the future. My son is here today, so I have no time to work on the theme, but during this week I am hoping to get a prototype working. Once everything is working, I'll release the theme and add more icons along the way. And probably more views further down the line too. I have some more ideas for themes after this one, and they will all share the same clean/simple kind of design

Thank for the feedback. I was leaning towards the fanart too.

And an alternative view:

Using fanart as the background:

Hi all, I'm working on a theme. Actually I'm working on 3 different themes. All in different stages of planing and preparing. Anyway, i have gotten to the point were I have an early build up and running and I thought I'll add some mookups here and see what you guys think. I am going to redo all the icons used, and there may be some size adjustments. But over all, what do you think?

Version 13.25 still suffers from the same problems that have been present for a long time now. Scanning for Retroachievements is the rom is 7z is still broken. It worked back in 13.19 but not anymore. Importing systems if name is changes from the standers, and scrape as is being uses still sometimes makes the platform end up not under console or handheld, but under root. When this happens no info about the platform is added an auto import stops working. Starting a game to fast from BigBox, the audio from the video sometimes keeps playing even when the game starts. Closing BigBox (close or switch to launchbox) often leaves the process running, having to open task manager and End Task to be able to use Launchbox. In BigBox, often the game detail page is blank, having to leave the game and go back in to be able to select any option. This is only a handful of bug and problems that have been present for some time now. And it seams that when/if a feature breaks its gone for good. From 13.25, music playback, if a track is in a m3u and short it will get stuck and play a 1 sec bit, be quiet for 10 sec and then play in again. No mater if you back out from the game or even start it. The next version or two should maybe focus on making sure features that are in launchbox keep working instead of adding more and letting features that don't work just stay broken!! Stuff like importing Wii U games, where it will ignore disc based games to import cemu installed games. Maybe it should ask me the user. Its a great feature to import installed games, but maybe my games aren't installed. Maybe they are disc based. So maybe a simple questions when importing this types of games would make life easier for everyone? While i do like launchbox, if stuff I like about it breaks and then doesn't really get fixed, the time will come to start locking for a replacement Sorry if this sounds negative, it's not my intention. But it's moving toward being more of a headache then a pleasant experience

Pioneer LaserActive, NEC LD-ROM², Sega Mega LD View File Hi The Pioneer LaserActive can now be emulated using Ares. LaserActive comes in two flavors, the NEC LD-ROM² and the Sega Mega LD. As you may have guessed the games where stored on laser discs, giving them excellent video for the time. I was hopping that this would have been added to the database by now, but that hasn’t happened, so I'll upload this here for anyone wanting to add this games. There are ow files, Pioneer LaserActive and Pioneer LaserActive (OBI). Both of the contain images (Box front and back, disc) and some manuals. The OBI has the boxart with the OBI where possible, and the other one without the OBI, where possible. Every game has a Front box art, even games not yet ripped. :-) I added platform clear logos. And in the roms folder there is a _Fix.bat file. Now you should never run a bat file without knowing what it dose. So please open it in a text editor and have a look. Adding all your .mmi file in the roms folder and running the .bat will rename them and sort them into folders. Giving you 1G1R, and moving the rest to a remove folder, so you can delete them if you like. Anyway, I am going to start making some .bat files to sort MAME/FBNeo roms into platform folders. So if anyone is interested in that, let me know an I'll upload them here too Submitter Hazuki Submitted 01/14/2026 Category Platform Media  

Pioneer LaserActive with its two PACs, the Sega Mega LD and the NEC LD-ROM². Both can be emulated with Ares. So I for one would like to see them added to the database.

Thank you for taking the time to check. Much appreciated. I get the same results. So yeah, 7z isn't working anymore.

Thank for the tips, I tried it all, but still the same. Lilcheeks, could you try adding a rom that is 7z? Just to see if it works for you, or if this a launchbox/7z problem

An update in my troubleshooting too. So I also uninstalled and install again. I tried removing and re importing platforms. I updated the RAHasher.exe and 7-Zip in the third-party folder. After that I uninstalled again and reinstalled so I'm on the same versions of everything. I run RAHasher.exe and it spits out the correct checksum, but still nothing in Lunchbox. I moved some of my roms from my folder, removed the platform and reimported it, then I added back 2 games, unzipped. Scanning now gave me cheevos on two non 7z games only. I then added back one more rom, this time .zip and it also worked. So I added back the rest in 7z and nothing. I'm guessing here, but it seams that launchbox isn't uncompressing as expected. This has actual a problem with some specific platforms long before this. GameCube in rvz if 7z will not work and FBNeo/flycast arcade roms if 7z instead of zip will not work (arcade in 7z works with RAHasher). But lilcheeks, your roms are in .zip aren't they? that's odd, because for me .zip worked just now, but not 7z I'm actually a little at a loss. Don't really know what more to try

I used Final Fantasy for the GBA in my example, as i'm playing it at the moment at the cheevos are working just fine in the game. Just like lilcheeks, I have all my games on a NAS. And i use 7z for all my games

I have launchbox on a computer in my livingroom, and then one on my main PC. The livingroom updated to 13.24 and I added the GBA games. Scanning for the Cheevos didnt work. I started launchbox on my main PC and said no to the update. Added the games and scanned for Cheevos and it workt fine. I removed the platform, updated launchbox and tryed again, but after the update it didnt work.
