While not exactly what you want, why not weed these out on the first page of the import wizard when it asks you which files to import? The file explorer allows you to sort by file type, or you can search for a specific file type. Alternatively, you could just open a file explorer, get the correct file types sorted or filtered, highlight the games and drag and drop them directly over LaunchBox in order to start the import process. From the way you are explaining it, it sounds like you are first telling LaunchBox to import a ton of non-game files, then at the end of the wizard, you want to clean it up.

If you add your instruction files as additional app on your game, it will show up as an available option in any pause screen.

It's not something I added in, but could potentially in the future. It's a little tricky as it encompasses a lot of content in there, so it can't get too small. What resolution monitor are you using?

Yeah, this is a good way of doing it. There's a tool in LaunchBox called Change ROMs Folder Path for Selected Games... found under Tools > File Management. I would use it on a platform by platform basis. Select your platform, highlight all your games and run the tool.

I'm very hungry, but will try my best not to eat you. Really liking the theme, good job. One thing to note, you can include the sound pack directly in your theme! Place them inside of the Sounds folder in your CTC project files will allow them to be published with your theme. You can also place them inside of a Sounds folder in your Big Box theme. The sounds will override a user's sound setting for your theme only.

You can have LaunchBox do this for you. In LaunchBox, make sure you are in Platform Categories filter. Right click your Arcade platform and choose: Create Missing Arcade/MAME Playlists. If you want more control, you could also do this manually by creating your own Auto-populate playlists by right clicking your Arcade Platform and going to Add > New Playlist. The Auto-Populate tab contains the rules you'd want to make, like Platform is equal to Arcade, Developer contains SNK... adjust as needed. You can check your results if you go into the Games tab.

I probably won't be doing that, however, anyone could add that piece of code into this theme if they wish. You could also get away with copying the SideBarView.xaml of Default Plus and adding it into Big Details.

At the moment, there's no plans to add this. But it's always on the table when we get around to creating 100+ similar icons that can be used for it, and that we are happy with. In saying that, anyone can add this to any theme, including the default them themselves, and then customize the icons in whatever way they choose. Icons do work on the Platform Categories section. They should also work in all the other filter types too.

If an update failed to install correctly, you can always go into your LaunchBox\Updates folder and run the 12.8 update manually. Make sure to install it overtop your current LaunchBox install (it's easy to mistakenly install a second LaunchBox inside your first one, creating a LaunchBox\LaunchBox folder situation).

Version 2.3
5,641 downloads
The newest version of this theme requires version 13.4, or higher. Big Details is a new theme that reimagines what the LaunchBox interface can be. Every piece of the interface has been tweaked and adjusted to provide a smooth and modern experience with subtle animations across the theme. The main highlight is the transition to a banner-type horizontal Game Details view. There's a lot to unbundle in this one, and any potential theme developers are welcome to take a peak into the code to get inspiration. Some features of this theme include: Banner style game details view with Uniform Image Grid View with rounded corners and vertically aligned images New controls pop-up that houses the music controls, and image and volume sliders Redesigned top menu bar Dynamic Play button with multiple version support, and states for: Play, Install, Unavailable -

Don't believe videos have ever been supported in CoverFlowGamesView.xaml, however, CoverFlowWithDetailsGamesView.xaml does support them. I don't think that view is within the COMMUNITY Theme Creator though. If you are using the CTC, you can always use one of the Horizontal Wheel views, switch the wheel to CoverFlow and get the same results. Those views should all support videos.

Beta 4 is out with the following: Improvement - A few extra theme developer tools were added for LaunchBox Themes Fixed: Incorrect suffix could be applied to media files Fixed: Media limit setting was being bypassed under certain conditions Thanks everyone for your help with this release. We are looking to wrap up our internal testing, and depending on how it goes, have an official release out this week.

If you load up the COMMUNITY Theme Creator files, there's a property on the video that adjusts the video stretch. Alternatively, you can open up the xaml file in the Themes\RetroFresh\Views folder and search for the property "StretchVideo" and change it to false. Based on your screenshot, you'd want to make the change inside of the horizontal view file.

The first thing I'd check is to make sure you do not have anything hidden under View > Hide Games

Are you able to post images on what exactly you are trying to accomplish with the mask? Just note that your image mask needs to be transparent. The black part will be where the image shows, and the transparent part will be where it doesn't.

The current beta does have a fix for the right click menu on the list view. If you would like to opt-in, you can go into Options > General > Updates > Update to Beta Releases If you do, let us know if it fixes your particular issue here.

Hi @Mortalis. Which version of LaunchBox for Android are you on?

Can also remove the RotationAmount property from the coverFlow:FlowControl in any of the views you are using.

Beta 3 is out with the following: Improvement: Games that need installed by the Epic Games client will now take you to the installation options when played (instead of an error screen) Fixed: The ROM Import Wizard was not updating the emulator page when going back to change the selected platform
