Theme Videos and Video Snaps for Nintendo Switch
View File
Sharing some theme videos and video snaps I made for this console. Focusing mainly on exclusive and temporary exclusives.
How to add them to your LaunchBox and BigBox:
- Download the zip files. If you only want the new content, download only the zip file labeled as NEW.
- Extract them to LaunchBox's root folder. Content will be extracted to its proper location.
- Done! Video snaps and theme videos will show up on LaunchBox's details panel and BigBox's views depending on your preferences.
- For an optimal experience, use BigBox themes like the Unified ones, switch to a fullscreen video view and change the transitions to Fade or Quick Fade.

For wheels displaying platforms this are the files you need to edit:
PlatformWheel1FiltersView.xaml
PlatformWheel2FiltersView.xaml
PlatformWheel3FiltersView
For wheels displaying games:
WheelGamesView.xaml
Wheel2GamesView.xaml
Wheel3GamesView.xaml
Wheel4GamesView.xaml
You need to change each one for a complete change plus remember that Refried has custom themes for each platform and view. They're located inside these folders:
TextGamesViewWheelGamesViews
Wheel2GamesView
Wheel3GamesView
Wheel4GamesView
Let's say you want to edit the views for Nintendo 64, to do that you need to edit each Nintendo 64.xaml located in those folders.
There are hundred of xaml files on each folder so good luck if you want to change them all
(you probably can batch edit them all at once easily anyway)

One thing I learned is that it's never complete, there's always something to update or improve.

You mean with MAME? With that emulator you can define one config to work with different machines, for example one for all Capcom's CPS-1 games, one for all CPS-3, etc. What you do is make that config, put it in MAME/ctrl folder, then change one line in the mame.ini (should be in MAME's root folder) to point to that file. That line is ctrlr. Here's how the mame.ini should look:
Here's my config file in case you don't have one, try this and see if this works for you. I should work with any modern MAME, any Xinput and most Dinput devices:
EDIT: If you already made a custom config for a game it will override this config file. If you prefer this config, delete the .cfg files located in the MAME/cfg folder.

My collection is about 4500 games and going down, Used to be 15000+. I just finished cleaning my collection removing duplicate games from different platforms. My rule is to keep the ports, collections and different versions to a minimum, for each game I try to keep the best version or the one for the most easily emulated, I treat Launchbox like one big system with cool games rather than a full collection of games for many consoles and devices.
Having all the games for many systems ends up making your Launchbox look like those bootleg "99999 in 1" games where you only have few titles repeated ad nauseam.

"Tomcat" casts a small blueshadow and it's missing here.
Anyway, I just want to say thank you for stepping up and doing a magnificent job doing clear logos and adding them to the database. ??-

I don't recommend using save folders since it's a bit buggy. For example, I got a Metal Gear Solid 3: Substance (USA) save file corrupted using folders. Some other games Like X-files Resist or Serve will always fail to find any save file from a previous session.
Also, I'd recommend using OpenGL (Hardware) as your default video renderer, it's more accurate than any Hardware DirectX renderer. The latter is missing a lot of shadows and effect in a lot of games.
-
Remember that the background's text must be displaced so it's readable both horizontally and vertically. Look at the Sega systems for an example.
-
Pixel perfect screenshots of old systems usually suffer from bad aspect ratio, if you don't resize them to 320x240 or 640x480 they won't look how they were intended to look on a 4:3 CRT TV or monitor; the target display for old systems.

You already managed to change the names of most of the official games, please change them back to what they were. Fix your screwed up.

I don't have a problem if the devs of those games decide to name them differently, just put the name they chose on the db, just don't touch the names of the official games for no reason.

Colons are ignored when scraping, no need to remove them from the name. I don't see the point of the changes. The accent on the é and the colon is on every English database and official page of those games.
Also, you're wrong, alternate names are used when scrapping names, that's the whole point of them. Just search "Project Zero" and you'll get Fatal Frame games every time. It's a bad idea to butcher the official name for ALL people in the event of a small number of users that have poorly named games.
I'm rejecting all those name changes.-

I'm not a big fan of playlists so only have a few, the default ones that come with the Arcade, one for favorites, NES mini and SNES mini. That's it.
-
I've noticed that the game icons that appear when you hover over a game's cover are missing in this theme. Are they gone for good or not implemented yet?
-
New default theme? Thanks, I hate it.
just kidding, I like it a lot! Seems to me it's also faster than the old ones.

Right click on your game, then select Edit, a window with details and images should appear, right click where the images are and select "Add images" after adding them don't forget to right click them and change the image type to the correct one.

Most themes have multiple views, one of them being showing videos fullscreen. You need to change to that view by pressing the change view button. You can assign it to a key or a button in the options menu in Bigbox.
Also, remember to check "Prioritize Theme videos" in the "Videos" section.

Hey, is there away to force play a videosnap of a game over a video theme using code? I want my theme to show video themes on a fullscreen view but show a video snap on the description view.
