I've imported simple 64 as my default emulator in LB, but when I go to run a game via LB it will only open the emulator and not the game, I then have to manually select a game I want to play via Simple64's emulator 'run' setting.
Is there a setting I am missing or is this emulator not a good match as its already a front end GUI for MUpen64?

This is either a mismatched rom to the emulator version or if this is only happening when launched from LB you have to move your mame.ini file out from the \ini folder to the main Mame install folder where your Mame executable is located.
Thanks for that info, I've tried several emulators (MAME, MAMEUI and Retroarch with different cores along with 2 Roms of 1942 and I can never get it to run, does it require a certain BIOS or similar?

Hey I'm wondering how I can edit a theme, currently I am using the Unified theme and I find that the select wheel fades away far too quickly, does anyone know where the setting is for me to change the time it takes to fade away? Cheers

Im currently using MAME romset V0.202 and launching via MAMEUI's latest version .205.
When I try to launch some games I get a variety of errors, for example, Moonwalker gave me "Too many textures" then when I reloaded it a few moments later, it ran... But all the 1941/2/3/xx games (That I can not get running no matter what version of the rom I download or what emulator I use) Gives me a full list of around 20 errors stating "41u_30.11f NOT FOUND (tried in 1941u 1941 1941u)" continuing with the same error and that required files are missing so I take these as a bad ROMSET?
Literally all I have done is downloaded the romset and MAMEUI and booted up, is there anything that I am missing that I should do before I run into any issues later such as BIOS updates/downloads, things along those lines or has MAMAE actually become that simple now and I have just got a bad dump for the 194x games?

Ello all,
I've recently started to take my collection seriously again and after some thought I have decided that I only want EU/NA official releases (There may be a few J/UNL games I want but I can always add them later) so my question is this, does anyone know a program or tool that will do all the hard work for me? If it was just the case of a few hundered games I would just do it myself but here we are talking in the region of 15k+.
I've filtered some by looking for (j) and (unl) but it never gets them all as some games such as 'babys day out' for the genesis are not labled as unl but are not officially released so they bypass my filter. I was looking for a list of all official releases but again, thats just an insane amount of time.
Any ideas?

The FBA core in Retroarch or Mame.
Ta pal, can you access the BIOS function with the Retroarch core to add unlimited time to Windjammer etc?

It was a resolution error from what I recall. Unfortunately I cannot double check it because I have deleted my FBA setup when I did a major cleanup of emulators I no longer had any use for at all.
The resolution change did fix it, out of interest what do you use now instead of FBA?
-
When launching a FBA game from launch box I get this error:
"Problem setting '1329517976x1329518240x0bpp (0Hz)' display mode"
I press 'OK' and the box disappears then the game launches in FBA, how do I remove this error and just load up the game?

*Forgive me if this is possible with the new audit feature*
Will there be/ is there a way to compare what games you currently have Vs what games were released for the system? I just had a go comparing games I had via audit and Wiki but my God was that a pain! (Naming conventions are different for a start) I'd love to know I have completed my collection without having to spend an ungodly amount of time checking a list
That's what computers are for .

I haven't checked their FTP but their download section is labelled 'ScummVM' I managed to get the platform theme the usual way via the "launchbox/tools/download platform theme videos" and for some reason 'The Dig' is the only game to have a video despite having Full throttle, Sam and Max and Day of the tentacle with no videos despite being much more popular.
-
I did the usual method of downloading images/media for my ScummVM games however, in the Emumovie section there is no option for videos. I checked emumovies to see if they have videos for the games I had and they indeed do. I have premium and have had no problem downloading videos with any other system but for some reason, this isn't working?
Any ideas? -
I can play my games fine, they do however ALL require me to set date and time each time I go into the game and I cannot save the game/I get a warning that no VMU is detected. Is there a setting I am missing in the menu or are they still working on this feature?
-
Thanks pal. I'll get onto that now, appreciate the help
-
Cue+bin + Audio tracks so I guess that's the issue here. I tried a DW file, it came with these, when booting the game I get a message "Uncorrectable data at sector 0" and I get booted into the Saturn CD player part.
Just another bad file(s) then? As its at least booting into the saturn emulator core
^Those are the files that came with the Darkwater Guardian Heroes file

Currently it's based on the No-Intro set of names, and will get expanded in the future. It is primarily there to check your library of games and tell you what you're missing. Once it's done scanning it pops up with a window telling you what you have or what's missing. It's very much in a Beta state currently though.
I scan and I dont get any information other than the list of games that I have. I tested on all my collection too. If I can get it to tell me what I am missing this will be the best feature ever! Currently its just amazing
I needed this feature after looking at the state of my GBA romset...

I have all the BIOS named correctly, RA is looking in the correct folder for them, but the mednafen core just wont load. If I switch to Yabuase core then everything loads properly. Any ideas? I followed the V2 Video on youtube to the letter.

I hate the steam import thing... i dont want 600 + games in LB. So i manually add the .exe in LB for the games i like.
Maybe someday we can add a playlist from steam instead of all games.
Agree but there is a way around it now, kind of... Import all your games, hide the ones you dont want, that way when you scan the games again, all the ones you dont want to appear, stay hidden. Takes a little while but its the best way ive found.

It's in the core options for it.
How do I edit the core options? Is it in retroarch UI or in the folders?
-
I've recently switched from epsxe to retroarch for my ps1 emulation, I had a few hiccups but got it working eventually, however, is there anyway to skip the ps1 boot video? I didn't get this in epsxe so I feel it must be an option I'm missing. Any ideas?

yeah there was a good amount I couldn't use because of aspect ratio and also just didn't look acceptable. Better grabbing large pics and down sizing them.
I used the word boarder as I didnt know how to write "that purple bit down the side" lol. I know they arnt the best looking but I think acceptable taking into consideration how much time editing each one takes and how much I dislike doing it. I was going to do it to Genesis til I looked at the covers and saw "Megadrive" written across lots of covers... Im not separating and editing them lol that's far to much work
I've noticed that some covers may say Megadrive but if you go into edit for that game and cycle the images, you can often find the Genesis cover. I looked at the Game Gear covers too, I believe I have 90-100% that collection and the covers make me shiver
I like what you did with the battletoads/butt-head covers, I wouldn't have thought the purple vertical banner would work with the grey horizontal banner, but it doesn't look too bad. I might mock up a few and check the difficulty I have with it, if it goes well, I will start on this until my DC collection is big enough to continue that.
Edit: Woah, the box art for the game gear is pretty bad quality! Just when I think I've got the average size down for my template and go to add a cover, I get one that's less than half the size. Looks like if I'm to do this ill need to check every single game for the best quality cover and pray there are better ones out there... I will start on #-A and see how I get on...
Edit#2: That wasn't TOO bad, it just takes a little longer thanks to each image requiring a lot more image searching, some of them I had to do an insane amount of copy/pasting and for Ariel assault I simply had to use the Japanese box art but edit the Japanese out of it.
I've stuck with a theme throughout, that is, no other platform information other than that which is down the side, this again made my work a lot longer but overall, it looks a lot better for it (I think). I had a problem with only 2 games:
#1: Alien syndrome, All images I could find were really low quality, as a result I spliced 2 images together and lack the skills to finish the box art to a high quality standard, as a result, its put to one side for now
#2: Andre Agassi Tennis. As again all images were bad quality I used the master system image and simply cut out the MS logo at the top, however, the area where it is cut is busy and quite hard to disguise, again, put to one side.
I've attached the files incase you want to look at them but I do intend to continue with this as I have nothing to do until the 30th of this month
Here is an image of Aerial Assault, the Japanese version and then the butcher job I did on it.

The problem with this is that these are not reflective of the actual covers. Some Dreamcast games were released with the white left, some with black, and of course non-U.S. releases were in other colors (or without a left border at all). I'd say that I don't really support using a generic template for them, especially when sources like SegaRetro, MobyGames, and others actually do provide physical scans of all the Dreamcast game covers. Otherwise, it doesn't really represent an authentic view of the covers.
That's a fair point and one I didn't actually pick up on. Being from the UK I'm used to DC games being in blue cases and as I am sticking to NA releases for all systems as this is the most populated and up to date area, I am not sure what covers these releases had. I do know that I am incredibly anal about themes so hopefully I can at least bulk upload these somewhere until "hopefully" the DB allows for alternate covers so people as anal as me can benefit from them :P.

Hey all, long time user/lurker first time poster and recent premium user.
Currently I'm adding games and sending changes to the DB when I see missing artwork and have recently started on the Dreamcast. Unfortunately unlike the N64/PSX there seems to be no theme running through for the covers at all! Some have black templates, some have white, some say Dreamcast down the side, some say SEGA Dreamcast, it's just a mess!
As a result I decided I liked the white template the most and found a PNG of it and since then I have been bulk editing the titles I have added to LB to fit with this template, now, they look great! My goal is to complete the flat front image and then move onto the 3D image as the 3D database is not only empty but again, all over the place, so it would be easier to complete after the flat images have been completed as these can be used and morphed into the 3D art.
So my questions:
#1 Is there a way for me to bulk upload these to the DB rather than going through each individual game and going through the entry requirements for each?
#2 Anyone want to jump in and help so we can get it done faster? I have the template setup in a way that all it requires is the current cover art and a simple scale to fit the size of the template, easy if you have a little know how of photo editing and I think I'm in the right place for that
Below is an image as to what the current box art looks like and the template is attached ready to start editing in case anyone wants it!
EDIT: Added images that I have currently completed (only 20) I forgot to add them, ha

Simple64 launchbox compatible?

Just tried that pal and nothing happened, the emulator doesn't open a game or (obviously) display. Is there an option somewhere that I am missing? I added the emulator the same way as I have every other emulator and they all work fine, click a game, loads the emu and launches the game, but this one loads the emulator and then I have to manually select a game via the emulator, ignoring the game I chose in launchbox.
