  1. Some will be coming. Some are great as a design but not great in practice. I think since those were created, viking has realized he enjoys more snappier and quicker loading type of views. I think those kind will be next.
  2. Been a while, but I've updated this beta theme with a ton of changes. Here are the major ones: Text Games View has been overhauled with viking's new design Platform Wheel 1 and 2 have been overhauled with viking's new designs Updated colors throughout the theme to include new systems and playlists Tons of small bug fixes The overhauls are big changes, and now include device images that need to work in tandem with the Colorful video set. I've also replaced the version in the OP. Colorful - Light Theme New - v1.1.zip
  3. I don't use steam link, but based on your screenshot, it's pointing to some kind of Windows color profile issue. Doing a few quick google searches seems to indicate that the Steam Link has a very limited color profile, and settings would need to be adjusted to try and match it. That's my best guess anyway.
  4. Pretty sure there's logos within CoverBox that could work for your scenario. Should be somewhere in the Media folder. I probably called them Developer or Publisher logos.
  5. Thanks @7ank0v1c. While we'd never say never. We don't currently have plans to bring LaunchBox to the Mac.
  6. Your ROM files determine which images are prioritized to download. For example, if you have a ROM flagged as (Japan), it will try and prioritize a box image from that region. If you have downloaded images from multiple regions, there's no current way to determine which box displays based on region.

    CoverBox

    It's on the list, but it's probably not coming soon. Will be taking a break from this theme for a bit, especially after it took a year to port to the CTC. If anyone does have a good CoverBox layout idea for PlayStation 3 or other systems, I'd be happy to take a look at them.
  8. Just spitballing, but could you have mistakenly installed a second copy of LaunchBox on your C drive? You can check C:\Users\[username]\ for a LaunchBox folder. Also, in LaunchBox, if you right click a Platform, go into Edit, and check the Folders tab, you can see the paths where the images are trying to save to.

    Default Plus

    Assuming you have videos, in LaunchBox go into Options > Visuals > Game Details, and turn on: Show Videos
  10. There's 2 ways to do it, but neither are currently in the CTC right now. Using the new FlowControl code that I showed you Using an opacity mask to fade out parts of the wheel
  11. The CTC doesn't currently have support for that type of Wheel. It's being worked on, but will definitely be a while before you can use that code within the CTC. You'll have to be more specific regarding changes that aren't showing up. Maybe screenshots would help.
  12. The only way within LaunchBox is on a platform level. If you right click a platform and choose delete, one of the prompts will ask if you would like to delete all associated media. If you are just looking to delete media, but not your actual games, then what Fugus says is correct, deleting everything inside of your Images and Videos folders would be the way to go. You could also add the Music and Manuals folders to that, depending on how far you'd like to take it.
  13. Not familiar with that device. Is it this one?
  14. If you decide to create Platform Specific game views, then one of the drawbacks you are seeing is that you have to edit them on an individual basis. This is just because they are literally different views at this point, that are not connected in any way. Always more convenient if you can figure out how to make it work in one view.
  15. Are you able to provide a screenshot? Are you saying that you see games in your Neo Geo platform that you did not import?
  16. Beta 2 is now out with the following changes: New Feature: Inside of the MAME Full Set importer you can filter games by CHD requirement and input type (Poll Item #4) New Feature: Inside of the MAME Full Set importer you can prioritize 2 or 4 player variants New Feature: Inside of the MAME Full Set importer you can create playlists for games that require a CHD as well as vertically orientated games Fixed: Right-Clicking a game in List View will now select the game before displaying the context menu (introduced in 12.7) Fixed: Issue where pressing OK in Edit Game would leave the controls view buttons disabled (introduced in beta 1) Fixed: Changed the time-out of EmuMovies media downloads from 5 to 10s (introduced in beta 1) Fixed: The total number of media downloads being displayed should now be more accurate Fixed: The Download Media string was incorrectly changed (introduced in beta 1) Improved error strings during downloads to make it more clear what caused the error
  17. I think I see what you want now, which wasn't entirely clear in the first post. If you are wanting the navigation to stop when you get to the beginning or end of a list, this is not currently possible (someone could prove me wrong here). The Endless property will not play a roll in what you want.
  18. If all you are looking for is the same type of wheel in the default theme, but you want it vertically straight instead of curved, you can set the CurveAmount to 0, like so: <coverFlow:FlowControl x:Name="FlowControl" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" CoverFactory="{Binding CoverFactory}" ImageType="Clear Logos" CurveAmount="0" CameraZPosition="3.0" VisibleCount="14" PageSize="6" Spacing="1.0" ItemZPosition="1.0" SelectedItemZPosition="2.0" /> The above was just taken from the default theme's vertical game view. You only should convert to the new FlowControl if you are requiring a specific feature from it. It provides more flexibility, but there's a much steeper learning curve to use and makes the code more complex.
  19. Endless is a property that only designed to work using the new FlowControl, which is doesn't look like you are using there. How exactly are you wanting to display your wheel?
  20. The answer is both, depending on how the theme was created. Most likely if it was created in the CTC, then the user does not have the option of removing certain pieces of information without diving into the code, or using the theme creator files to load into the CTC and remove it yourself. If your using the Default theme, or any theme that uses the GameDetailsTransitionSelector (very few themes use it these days), then users have the option of turning certain metadata on or off in the options.
  21. It allows you to add emulators that are not listed. Unfortunately, with the way Android works, it does require that you know certain pieces of information about the emulator that may be hard to find.
  22. Hi @Drivin33. Which theme are you referencing?
  23. SNK Neo Geo AES can be a bit confusing, as it's not as simple as other rom sets. The ROMs could have been pulled from a number of different sources, so if you don't know exactly which set your roms are from, then you'll have to do some trial and error. You'll probably want to start with opening RetroArch up, download different arcade, fbalpha, fbneo cores and try to load games directly in RetroArch until you find one that works. Once you find one, you can do the following in LaunchBox: During the import of your ROMs, you'll want to make sure that you select "Use MAME Metadata (for ROMs with MAME-Style shortnames)", then uncheck "This is a Full MAME Set" and import your games. After import, go into the emulator settings, make sure that "Extract ROM Archives" is turned off. Set the correct version of RetroArch and the Default core that you know will work

    CoverBox

    Yes, the CTC doesn't have support to visualize this type of modification to the list box. This is just a current limitation to it. There should be a button called something like "designer friendly mode" which you can toggle to make it not error, and the list would show up in a white box.
  25. This sounds like you'd want to use the Audit tool for this. The audit took will show you a list of games, along with each images you have for each image type. It's designed to allow you to fill in the gaps of your media. It also has a column for LaunchBox Games Database ID, allowing you to easily find which games didn't find a match for metadata and media. You could also use the Games Missing Media filter in the side bar dropdown filter. Either way, you would identify the games missing a certain image type, highlight them and then run the Download Metadata and Media wizard tool, like C-Beats mentioned. The scan tool is used for when you want LaunchBox to identify if you added or removed ROMs from your ROM folder.
