  1. Yes the XML file is the new one in the strategy download, I searched and found SIMCITY inside of it to verify...

    I have all the packs metadata zips in the Launchbox folder...RPG, ADV and STR

    Should I run SETUP.BAT and then Patch.bat again....maybe that will fix it?

  2. Not sure what I did wrong, but my MS-DOS games still show 1,400 total...the new Strategy ones aren't showing up in Launchbox...

    After installing and patching, I copied over the contents of the folder GAMES into my existing collection where the other ones are, this is the same I did with RPG and ADV pack...as well as copying everything in IMAGES\MS-DOS, and the MS-DOS.XML file in DATA (overwrote the old one), and now Launchbox still will not show more than 1,400 games...

    What could I be doing wrong?

    All three of those games are from the RPG pack. Not sure why you would see them after installing the strategy pack...?

    Very odd. I'll do some testing and see what I come up with.

    Did you happen to run the patch as well, or no?

    yes I downloaded over my old adventure/rpg download....ran setup.bat, then patch.bat

  4. In the Dos! folder after installing the new Strategy pack (running the set up) and the patch..... I've noticed that the three folders in games\dos! are empty EXCEPT for the .BAT file for each game...are these broken or were they removed?

    Sounds like you didn't import the games correctly as the file type should not be showing.

    Yes I did, I just followed the wizard.

    I know what caused it...before I import ISO ps2 games I compress them with a tool that changes them to a smaller, real-time format of .GZ (causes a small delay the very first time to open a game, that's it).....but I import that, the file names are whatever.iso.gz so since the .iso is not removed or placed in (  ) Launchbox imports that as part of the name... :-(

    I just need a way to rename what is showing in Launchbox for all those files...without renaming the actual files...I can edit each one and fix this and it doesn't break anything, but I have too many to do...

    Yea, so basically I have already released Adventure and RPG packs. Strategy pack releases very soon. 

     

    When you download one of these packs, it pre-populates launchbox with all of the art assets, manuals, etc... so you don't have to scrape anything.

    You rock eXoDOS.  Scraping for video clips if you have a emumovies account, can be fruitful, yes?

  7. Exo, for the SCUMMVM/DOS games in the collection, when it prompts you for which one....what is the advantage of choosing one or the other?  Does one provide a better experience in some way? Are they identical, any negatives/positives you can highlight?  Does it vary on a per game basis, or not really?

    Quick question, I am trying to get rid of the console window but I can't. In fact I am not sure if it was supposed to be showing in the first place...

    Press ctrl+enter (or is it alt+enter?) to go full screen with the main game window, at least..
