  1. Blank Box art View File I had previously made a placeholder blank artwork, but after a while I decided that having something that looked more or less like the rest of your library would look better than just a grey rectangle. So I took some time put together a bunch of different "blank" box art. Basically, this is just for items in BigBox that don't have box art. I did Generic, PC, Steam/PC, SNES, NES, SEGA Genesis, PS1, and PS2. Feel free to use the the generic poster one to add additional consoles to it. This may not be helpful to most, but it might make some people's libraries a little prettier. So hopefully this is helpful to someone out there :-) Submitter Pyrometheous Submitted 05/07/2017 Category Game Box Art  
  2. Plex Platform Videos View File These are 2 Platform videos I made for Plex Media Player. It took me a long while to conceptualize something that would work for it. So hopefully others with HTPCs using BigBox as their primary end will appreciate this. I've also attached some other media that could be used in big box for plex I used the Translucent - STEAM PC 2D DVD COVER (.PSD) 1.0.1 template for the fancy Box front, so all credit for the nicer looking one goes to @twasjesto I hope you all enjoy this :-) EDIT I went ahead and attached a Plex clear logo that I think would work nicely with @Rincewind's BigBox theme.

  4. I think Death, Tiffany, and Rincewind are my favorites. Oh, and I think I'd lump Susan in there with Death. Did you see the Hogfather movie? It's awesome, I think it was on Netflix for a while, but not sure. Anyway, back on topic. This weekend I tinker a little more with the settings on my side, I might have something setup wonky over here. Today is a PS1 emulation day (partly), trying out RetroArch using Austin's Tutorial, we'll see how it goes :-) Keep up the awesome, I hope everyone is able to help you out with the video bits. Again, I love the theme otherwise :-D
  5. I've run into some issues with video playback as well. I love the theme though, and Rincewind is one of my favorite discworld characters so I love to select it from the menu, it's just that I get audio from the video, but not the video, but sometimes the video shows up properly. Is there a fix for that? Switching to windows media player doesn't seem to do it for me.
  6. On this same topic, I've noticed that some PC Front - Box art is pretty uniform in a sorta clear case with the poster art within it. I noticed that a lot of games have this, but not all. Is there a template to create this? I found the The VGBoxArt Template and The SteamGameCovers template but not the one that typically downloads from the emumovies tab within the image download part of Launchbox. I'm really trying to find a fairly easy way to make my PC library more uniform, and I have run into this hurdle. I could re-create everything using one of those templates I posted above, but it would be a bit of a pain. I'd rather just add to the emumovies/launchbox libraries with covers that are missing. EDIT I found it, nevermind.
  7. I don't know why that didn't work for me then....sometimes I think I'm just going crazy
  8. So I went ahead and made a tutorial on how to do this. So if anyone else runs into this issue they can hopefully find this referenced here.
  9. Well, I've got it working, once again thank you oh so very much! If you don't mind, I think I'll make a tutorial video on how to do this so that if others run into this issue, they can fix it quick and easy. Thank you again so much!
  10. lol, so I got the script to work in V0.94, which is fantastic, but it won't load games via launchbox. Does anyone have a link for v1.01? What are those filter advantages to RA over Higan? I was just going with Higan because I read that it was "true emulation" like an exact replica experience to playing on a cart.
  11. I really appreciate your help with all of this. I've tried to do the research myself on this, but just ran into a bunch of brick walls. In a way, I'm glad that the script issue wasn't just me not understanding how to use AutoHotKey. I'm ordinarily alright with scripts, but this was making me feel like a crazy person.
  12. I'm using 1.02, which won't fullscreen at all, I seem to be running into an issue with not being able to find a download for 1.01, all download links take me to here. Which only allows me to download v1.02. This whole thing is making me feel like an idiot.
  13. I was originally using higan v102, however I couldn't find any way of making that full screen at all. So I opted for this version of BSNES because "F11" worked for full screen, so I figured if I could find the right script, I could get it to work. But I'm probably gonna end up just using RA instead, although I think it would be great to be able to resolve this conundrum (the geek in me wants to know why), it seems I have a perfectly reasonable solution to the problem that I should implement.
  14. Clearly I'm doing something wrong here. So I went ahead and recorded it Can you observe where I'm doing something wrong?
  15. Also not working, hmm... by chance does AutoHotKey script need to specify an application to press {F11} on? Or should it just work? When I was looking through the guide and the send commands I think I saw something about that, but I don't remember exactly what it was, I couldn't get it to work though.
  16. I'm trying this when I get home. Thank you so much!
  17. I'll have to give it a go. By chance, does retroarch work with hidef texture packs for N64 titles? Or is that just project 64 with the rice video plugin?
  18. Not one that I can find at least I've always shied away from retroarch (except on my vita), the interface just turns me off, although I suppose that with launchbox, there won't be much to do in retroarch aside from the initial setup.
  19. I've been looking around the autohotkey area, and I can't find a command that'll wait 1 second, then send the {F11} keystroke. I'm basically trying to get BSNES to startup in fullscreen. At first I was trying Higan, but I couldn't find any way to get that to launch in fullscreen, so now I'm trying to get BSNES to go fullscreen right after the game launches. I've also tried FEleven but I can't find a good way of executing that along with BSNES and loading the ROM. Although, this would all be much easier if there was a command line parameter that would just toggle fullscreen at launch. Please let me know if you've been able to get this to work.
  20. I'm gonna do this one first as a bit of an experiment, I'm not too familiar with the XBONE interface, but it should be easy enough to figure out though. But I am a complete newb at this, and I don't know how much work is actually going to be needed to make a theme for BigBox. Most themes seem to rely on the scroll wheel for each platform, where as the 360 theme would be quite different. So, I guess we'll see where this road takes me.
  21. This gave me an idea, I'm starting to work on an XBOX 360 Dashboard theme. I'm still doing artwork and design stuff for it, but I'm hoping to dive into visual studio this weekend and get some progress on it. I'm hoping it's a good idea in practice, and not just in my head.
