  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. 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.
  4. Hi, just updated to 13.24 a couple of days ago and it seams that scan can for RetroAchievements isn't working anymore? Not sure if the process has changed, but scanning a platform gives me nothing. In the xml every games get, <RetroAchievementsHash>COULDNTFILEHASH</RetroAchievementsHash> All my roms are 7z It checks the platform really fast, so I'm guess Launchbox isn't unpacking them before checking, but I'm not sure. Any ideas what to do? Thanks
  5. Let me know what you think and if you want me to upload more 🙂
  6. Hi all, I'm a little late to the party here, but I have just started using BannerBox. Excellent theme. So my setup is a little different. I have a platform and then within it sub platforms with hack or prototypes and so on. So i have started setting up to make Banners for what I need, and if anyone is interested I'll share theme here.
  7. Hi again. So I have uninstalled Launchbox and installed it again, but it still happens. What I can du is just delete the plantorm and inort it again and it works. Its very random, and I still consider this a bug. But I now just import platforms, one at a time. Only have Clearlogos down load and iff it dosnt work, delet an do it again. Once I have a handfull of platforms I let launchbox download the art that I want. Its a little bit of a hassle, but then again, its not that will be importing new platforms al the time 🙂 Anyway faeran, thank you for taking the time to helping me.
  8. Thank you for the the tips. I hade to travel to a family member, so I won't be back home for a couple of days. The launchbox on a new drive is installed from the launchbox setup. So I haven't just moved it so to say. The file names on the files are all run through clrmame with the no-intro, redumo dats. All using 7zip, so the game always get moved to the computer when playing it. I don't use any OneDrive dopebox. But I'll have a look at the file permissions once I'm back home. i have been moving a big number of files from the nas to the computer, just to see that the network speed doesn't drop. And as far as I can tell, the network is working just fine. The folder is mapped to z: and its always available when Windows starts. the hdd vill spin down. Disabled this so the HDDs never spin down, doesn't make any differences
  9. Thank you for your reply. I have imported them using the Tools > Import > ROM files > single platform. I have all the rooms on a NAS. All emulators, lunchbox and art/videos and on the computer itself. All located on a SATA SSD. The NAS has a shared folder, and it in turn contains sub folders. A Roms folder. In it is a folder for consoles, handhelds and so on. Then in the console folder is a Nintendo 64 and in it a folder for Japanese games, one for English games, one for hacks and so on What is making this so hard for me to troubleshoot is that I don't get the same result every time. If I import say N64 and it's doesn't really work. If I delete it and try again it sometimes works, but not always. The computer as I Intel i7 8800k, running at 5GHZ, with 16gb ram and windows 11. I was using launchbox on it before, but never really had this problem. I've had it up and running from before the start/pause themes where a things. It's just been formatted and a fresh install of windows. The only things that have changed is that I moved launchbox from my C drive (m.2) to my D drive (SATA SSD) and that i am using a new nas. Any tips, ideas or help is much appreciated Thank you for your time
  10. Importing Nintendo 64 and Sega Saturn, using the standard names. The same setting all the way. Nintendo 64 is all good, but Saturn has imported all the games, but the game folder isn't the one I selected during the import process. Its the default Launchbox folder instead. So adding a game or two later will not be imported automatically, without changing this. At seams random what launchbox actually saves from the import process. Anyone had any of this problems? Anyone know what I should try next?
  11. Hi, Lunchbox is acting a little odd, and I can't really figure out what's wrong. Just for a little background info. I have been using lunchbox for years. I have just gotten a new NAS and I'm in the process of sorting roms and adding platforms. This NAS is massive compared to what I was using, so I really want to get my games in a nice good organised structure. So before starting I did some testing and everything was working fine. I sort my platforms like so . └── Console/ ├── Nintendo GameCube/ │ ├── Nintendo GameCube │ ├── Nintendo GameCube (Demos) │ └── Nintendo GameCube (Japan) ├── Sega Dreamcast/ │ ├── Sega Dreamcast │ ├── Sega Dreamcast (Japan) │ └── Sega Dreamcast (Translations) └── Sony PlayStation/ ├── Sony PlayStation ├── Sony PlayStation (Hacks) └── Sony PlayStation (Japan) So when I import the roms, I start with the "main" platform, for example "Nintendo GameCube" then, once its done I'll do the "secondary" platforms, "Nintendo GameCube (Japan)" So I'll name it "Nintendo GameCube (Japan)" and scrape it as "Nintendo GameCube" So I did this for about 15 platforms. Once its scanning I left it and came back and just added the next one. So far so go So I looked in the platform "Nintendo GameCube (Japan)" I saw that about 1/3 of the games had no metadata. First I thought that maybe the games aren't in the database, but after looking a bit more, I could see games that I knew where in the database. So I selected "Edit metadata" on a game and it was found at once. But the platform gets changed from "Nintendo GameCube (Japan)" to "Nintendo GameCube", so I had to manually change this on ever game I updated. This was a couple of days ago. So yesterday I added "Sony PlayStation". Everything went fine, and after that I added "Sony PlayStation (Japan)", and for some reason it just doesn't work as expected. There's over 2500 files in the folder and only a handful of games got metadata. I pressed Ctrl+A and tried updating the metadata, but nothing gets updated. So I delete the platform from lunchbox and import it again. Same name "Sony PlayStation (Japan)" and again scraped as "Sony PlayStation", this time lunchbox starts downloading all the metadata for the games. So for some reason its working? I see that "GameCube (Japan)" doesn't have an icon. Under edit platform the "Scrape As" is blank. Changing it back to GameCube and the icon is there. Looking in "Parents" and its parent is "Root" All info like CPU is blank. Looking at "Sony PlayStation (Japan)" and the scrape as is this time "Sony PlayStation" but the parent is "Root" and again no info. Then checking "Sega Dreamcast (Japan)" and the "Scrape As" is "Sega Dreamcast" and the parent is "Consoles". Here all the info is filled in. So what I want to know is how to get Lunchbox to import platforms the same ever time. How to get Lunchbox to use the "Scrape as" and not just remove it after/during import process
  12. Thank you for your reply. I'll try it out tomorrow and see how it looks 😊 I now understand how it works. I just wish it would work the same in BB and LB. But I can't always what I want 😊
  13. Hi, I am about to start the adventure of a new build. I just got my new HDDs and I will be adding my games to them and starting over in Launchbox. There's a lot of old emus and app not used anymore, and the build has gotten a little cluttered and unorganized, so this time around I want to get everything organized in a good way from the beginning So I plan on organizing my roms something like this Roms |-- Consoles | |-- Nintendo GameCube | | |-- Nintendo GameCube | | |-- Nintendo GameCube (Japan) | | |-- Nintendo GameCube (Hacks) | | `-- Nintendo GameCube (Translations) I really want to separate my collection, having all non English games, hacks, fan translations separated, in folders. Stuff like hacks I'll be adding games from time to time. But the official releases are more or less add once and that's it. So on my test build, I have been trying a couple of things. A added the platform "Nintendo GameCube", Then I added a Platform "Nintendo GameCube (Japan)" Scraped as GameCube, and the parent being "Console Non-English", but this makes BigBox very cluttered, and that's not wat I wanted. So I thought that I'll add the "Nintendo GameCube (Japan)" as a child for the "Nintendo GameCube" platform. But a platforms can't be child for another platform. So it looks like playlists are my only option? In the platform "Nintendo GameCube (Japan)" I unticked the parent, and I made a playlist containing everything from this platform. Then I added this playlist as a child of "Nintendo GameCube". This way I thought that Id have all my Gamecube games in one place, with the Japanese games only showing up under there playlist. But when I go into BigBox, all I now see when I enter GameCube is my playlist, the games from this platform aren't shown. So I'm a little stuck to what to do now. Any ideas or suggestions?
  14. This are great. Thank you so much. Maybe you could release the psd for this. I would like to make a unlicensed games too.
  15. Thanks. Just a question. Why is Koreas flag the North Korean flag?
  16. Hi all, Sorry for the long time without any updates to this start-up theme. I'm able to be back here again I've started working on a new theme. This will be my first Big Box theme. So I don't really know how long time it will take for me to get it ready, but its fun working on a theme. Once it's usable, I will upload it so if anyone wants to help me try it out and find what isn't work or what need to be changed After my new theme is done, I'm planning on making a pause theme for it. Then a new start-up theme, and after that I'll update this start-up theme too
  17. Hi, I know we are talking about adding new systems to the database. But I'd like to see more content rating systems. Personally I live in Europe and I'd prefer to use PEGI instead of ESRB. Its just what I'm use too. But I also have a lot of Japan only games, and this have never been rated in the US, so they are all unrated. But if we added CERO to the database I'd start filling in the ratings for the games. I listed all the Video game content rating systems: Australian Classification Board (Australia) CERO (Japan) Chilean Rating System (Chile) ClassInd (Brazil) ESRA (Iran) ESRB (US, Canada) FPB (South Africa) Game Rating and Administration Committee (South Korea) Game Software Rating Regulations (Taiwan) Gmedia (Saudi Arabia) Indonesian Game Rating System (Indonesia) iOS App Store (online) National Audiovisual Institute (Finland OFLC (New Zealand) RARS (Russia) SMECCV (Mexico) PEGI (Europe, Israel) USK (Germany) It be really nice if we had the option to pick rating system priorities, like we can do with art. For example I'd pick PEGI, then ESRB and then CERO So if I add "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" to my games collection, I'd get it rated PEGI 12 But if I add "Arc the Lad: End of Darkness" I'd get ESRB T - Teen, because this game was never released in Europe. In addition to some of the rating systems have content descriptor. PEGI for example has "Fear" or "Violence" for example. I know this has to be added to launchbox, but it all starts with adding it to the database, so we can start filling in the ratings for the games. So, yes I know this post is a little off. This thread is about adding new systems. But as you are adding to the database, I'll post this here in the hopes that you might consider adding more rating systems, so we that don't live in the US can use the ratings we are more familiar with. And so we can get ratings on games that aren't released in the US Thank you for you time

    looks good, going to try it out. Thanks
  19. Hi all, Hope you all are doing well I haven't abandoned this startup theme, and I was working on a theme and pause theme to go with this startup theme. I got an optic nerve inflammation, so my left eye has blurred vision and I can't see colors normally. Its getting better but I still can't see colors normally, and this makes it hard to work on a theme where seeing colors is kind of important 🙂 I'll be back working on this startup theme once I can see colors as normal again

    Wrong tab

    Hi, Is there a way to cancel a submission to the database? I was updating some games, and clicked on the wrong tab, added info for the wrong game and clicked submit before noticing what I had done.
  21. Its great to see all the new systems added, especially those a little more unusual like N-Gage and Game.com. Just wanted to ask if some of Game Parks platforms such as GP32 will be added?
