    Desmume Full Screen

    in Troubleshooting

    Posted

    This is my DeSmuME "Running Hotkey Script" to go full screen and exit with ESC or by pressing L3:

    WinWaitActive , DeSmuME ;
    Send !{Enter}

    $Esc::
    {
    Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}}
    }
    $joy9:: ; my L3 button
    {
    keywait, joy9, t2
    if errorlevel <> 0
    {
    Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}} ;closes emulator
    }
    }

    Note if nothing is going full screen with it, you just need to set it full screen once in a game and exit and I think it remembers is the next time, the script above may just be for ways to exit it.

    i'm sure i have the smallest. 110 gb. but my ssd is only 256 anyway. i will play newer games like Game Cube with my regular pc and a logitech controller but will use launchbox since a copy is there. if i could find more teknoparrot games with out trojans i'd add a few more that can play with snes controllers. or are the trojans not real?? i don't know.

     The trojans are false positives... it has to do with how the crack works; modifies stuff in real-time.

     This is a known issue with the emulator, so you just have to adjust your anti virus exclusions... this is well known... check Google.

    Synology DS1819+ NAS performance with Launchbox / BigBox

    @cleverestWhen I initially setup on a Synology 1815+, LB performance wasn't very good and I ditched it as primary and went back to a local HD with the Synology as backup (had a few spare WD Reds from NAS upgrade anyway).  I could just be impatient, but the wheel scrolling in BB was just too laggy with a full install on the NAS.  Now I hadn't at that time come across the LB cache trick on an SSD option, so it might have improved if I tried that since it is the image response that you tend to notice versus a game time loading.  I also haven't tried it on the 1819+ that replaced the 1815+ (dreaded Intel Atom CPU bug killed it) and has a 10Gb network card.  If keep the LB install local including images/videos, and just feed game media from the NAS then the NAS option should work fine, particularly for the non-CD era games.  I have seen some other folks post with a NAS install and they are happy with it, so I think it just depends a lot on expectations of speed.

    Good points...I guess I will just have to try it. ?

    Synology DS1819+ NAS performance with Launchbox / BigBox

    spelling, etc

    Hi Everyone, I'm not trying to brag here, but I'll be acquiring one of these nice NAS's soon;  I want to seriously expand my current 8TB LaunchBox collection to something even more jaw-dropping. (among other storage needs). I realize there is a performance hit with NAS vs. running on a local machine, but I'm hoping I can still make it perform well enough...

    Does anyone use this specific NAS with growing their Retro gaming collection? The ultimate goal is to have the biggest, most ridiculously complete collection running LB/BB as humanely known in all 9 planets, but I'm curious what the performance on this specific NAS is and perhaps some steps to set it up and optimize it, if you would be so kind.

    Thank you!

    Yes, I've tried to gather as much as possible.

    I appreciate that approach, but I'm just trying to get 1 rom only, I mean on all platforms though obviously, no betas, alt versions, and English only, unless Japanese only systems (EX: PCFX), or translated to English roms (over 350), and I'm at around 42k roms, can probably had a few thousand more total...not sure if there IS more than that though...

    Nothing really backed up , some stuff on the cloud mostly relying on friends and family builds I've done,

    I usually keep and plan to clone my 2tb LB drive again as that's really the most important thing.

    I'm still in the adding and editing stage really and most of the time I keep everything sitting cold only plugging in what's needed

    my end goal is to get a fifth 8tb and shuck the externals and replace my LB drive with a 2tb nvme, accepting all donations ?

     

     

     

    Haha, good luck getting that! Sounds cool though.

    I looked the numbers up before 250k was If I remember correctly roughly the number I came up with , add in all your other online services too and its maybe 10 to 20k more -

    I've been pretty vigilant in nearly 4 years of hunting games I rarely come across new platforms.

    Damn man...I have a full 8TB, and I pride myself on it being 99.5% playable, no dupes, not beta, only english and translations to english....

    BUT WOW....you running this on a NAS or the CLOUD?

    Built a new desktop PC, my existing Launchbox now crashes with permissions errors

    added image

    This happens while loading contents of the image folder.....it tells me to check the permissions. The OWNER of this folder is listed as "account unknown" - I need to change this, but I have a couple computers, and don't want to limit this collection to my desktop. What IS the correct default owner of the Launchbox folder?  Is it Administrator, trusted installer, or something else?

    Android Launchbox - how to delete all games in a platform on phone and start over with it?

    Logically would be that the program wouldn't block you from recreating the platform again as why would it logically be programed to do something like that.

    Logically maybe somebody hates a specific platform and never wants to see it listed again in their installation; hence "permanent".  I think that's more than reasonable of an assumption given the language used.

     Anyways, I have my answer.

    You can delete platform-by-platform by long-pressing on the platform and selecting delete. Is that what you're looking for?

    I don't want to permanently delete it, I just want to re-do it with no games...add my games again from the correct phone folder.... If I delete the NES platform for example, it warns me this is permanent...will I lose that category on my LaunchBox Android phone and not be able to get it again?
