We are not currently seeing issues with the Epic Games importer. Are you able to run through the process again, make sure you have "Force importing duplicate games" enabled and check your "Ready to Import" results? If you are not seeing a game in this list that you know is in your library, provide some names and we can investigate. Also, make sure you have nothing checked under View > Hide Games.

The Update MAME option refers to the program and not your metadata or media. However, in saying that, if you wish to update your MAME full set ROMs in LaunchBox, you can simply re-run the MAME Arcade Full Set Import wizard, choose to manual configure emulator setup, Edit your MAME emulator to the new one, and import. This should only find any new games and import those. This is not ever necessary. This step is always taken automatically during any imports or media/metadata downloads.

Audio stops when attract mode switches from first game.
faeran replied to Scarecrow_Jack's topic in Troubleshooting
For anyone that has this issue, and has already made sure that under Options > Sound > Attract Mode Master Volume, you have that value set to something greater than 0%. Please send us your BigBoxSettings.xml file (Located in LaunchBox\Data). You can post it here or PM myself and @C-Beats. -
ROM imports will attempt to match based on the file name (although this can differ depending on the import method you use and the type of game you are importing). When parsing, it will ignore the parts of the file name that are in parathesis, and use that information in other parts of your metadata (like version and region). If you use the Audit tool, there's a column for LaunchBox Games Database ID. If there was a match, then you'll have something in that column. If a game was not matched, you would have to Edit the game and adjust the title and press the Search for Metadata button to see if it can find a match.

You would have to load up BannerBox into the CTC, and animate the video element in the views you'd want. Basically, the animation would be saying, after selecting a game, and after a certain amount of seconds, scale and position the video to make it full screen.

I don't believe this is currently possible to change themes based on the different types of filter types. You can always put in a request for this by using the Help & Support menu option at the top of this page and choosing Request a Feature. You could always learn how to make videos in BannerBox full screen by using the COMMUNITY Theme Creator. That may be a good option for you.

This is possible, but you'd have to create a custom theme and then in the Wall View you'd like to alter, you would need to change the FlowImage ImageType to Screenshots
-
One way you can do this is by creating a new Emulator entry inside of Tools > Manage > Emulators You can even have it pointing to the same emulator. Then set up your specific light gun configs in there. Then in your playlist, you can select all your games and bulk change all your light gun games to use your newly added emulator.

BigBox theme "retromags" - game screenshots are disappearing
faeran replied to theark's topic in Troubleshooting
I've republished the theme using the CTC 2.3. Not sure if that will help with what you are seeing, but worth a shot. -

Check if you have a process (and service) running on your computer called nahimic. It can cause issues like this. -

For now, the only way to add images to the carousel is by adding to either Background or Screenshot priorities. Having a specific Carousel priority option is something we have discussed, although is not in the immediate plans.

Bigbox through Steamlink is showing white screens.
faeran replied to BDogg49's topic in Troubleshooting
Just guessing, but sounds like a color profile issue with Steam Link and your Windows settings. Some kind of mismatch there maybe. -
Edit Wall View created in Community Theme Creator
faeran replied to Surfdeign's topic in Big Box Custom Themes
The best way is to copy and paste the FlowControl from another theme, like The POC, and then play around with it. You'd be looking for everything inside of coverFlow:FlowControl Replace over your coverFlow:FlowControl in your wall view. Then play around with the properties and the items inside of the FlowContext. The Documentation.pdf also has descriptions of the properties inside of the new FlowControl. This is found in your LaunchBox\Themes folder. -
Version 1.62

The newest version of this theme requires version 13.3, or higher. An alternative to the LaunchBox Default theme. This theme's main difference is the Game Details. Providing an alternative layout, with an image border at the top, and smooth animations upon load. The theme also has icon support on the side bar. Around 90 controller images have been added to the theme to showcase how it works, but the images can be changed out to anything you'd like (icons must be in png format). The icons can be replaced in the following location (restart of LaunchBox is required). LAUNCHBOX\LBThemes\Default Plus\Images\Icons Installation Extract the Default Plus folder into LaunchBox\LBThemes In LaunchBox, open Options, under Visuals > Main Window Theme and select Default Plus from the dropdown. -

Bug: Dialogue boxes are off the edge of the screen...
faeran replied to NagakiriHidechi's topic in Troubleshooting
Hi @NagakiriHidechi, What is your resolution of your monitor? Also, what is the scaling of the monitor, and do you have a multi-monitor setup? -
The next beta should fix the audio issues you were seeing.

First thing you want to check is whether you added the AHK script to the "Running Scripts" section of your Emulator window, and not the Exit Script section. This is because you need AHK to know about the Escape key while the emulator is running.
