Thanks Retro, i thought the same. All i did was add the playlists that were found within say the "Arcade" category, seems to do most i could

Hi. My bigbox starts in unified and has arcade, and all 40 odd platforms listed in the wheel. However. I switched to "platform categories" and i like the "consoles" wheel.and its associated video. Is it possible to plop this "consoles" into my main "platform" wheel? Tried messing around in launchbox and cant see how

hi guys - probably a simple one here, since adding a 3+4 player wheel every time i start bigbox it starts with that wheel. I want it back the way it was on "Arcade classics" and the nice music that plays along with that wheel. Probably a tick box somewhere ive unticked thanks

Hi guys So goldeneye,when i try multiplayer on 2players (not tried 4) player 1 is perfect however player 2 doesnt seem to render. Seems like you are floating in the sky. No world or anything. Any ideas!?

Oooh get out of town Charco!... That "4 player" one is spot on. Probably the best im going to get eh, wish it said 3 and 4 player. But i dont think im going to get it am i. Awesome thanks

Hi thanks Robin. Really appreciate your reply, however the 4p video seemed to only be consoles, perhaps it looked like.n64. Im after arcade only really. Cherry on top would also be 3 AND 4 player.

Does a playlist video for "3+4 player" exist guys?

dont spose anyone has any videos they can recommend as my "multiplayer" / "3-4 player" wheel thing? Would be much appreciated!

hi Kinky, well, crikey that has to be one of the most wonderful and thought out tips ive had. Alot of time has gone into that and i massively appreciate it, thank you. I will give this a go to see how it pans out, great stuff!

Funny i did think about doing that if the problem was worse. however its only Battletoads, great game but everything else is spot on pretty much

Just for your own notes... This worked QUITE well... only multiplayer game i had an issue with was Battle toads - there doesnt seem to be ANY other Mame roms apart from btoads.zip available, so, sod it.. All the rest work great

hi all - i have made a playlist for all 3 and 4 player games on my machine. however when going into bigbox, unified, it looks rubbish so i need to freshen it up a little. Can anyone recommend me a nice "Multiplayer" type back ground video i can use when highlighting it on my systems wheel?. Also, any good clear logos for this wheel title etc would be greatly appreciated thanks a million

OR maybe if i find a different English speaking region then that should work! Ah-haaaaa....!

Read Only Memory, of course... hmm seems like it may not be possible after all. Thats frustrating thanks tho Neil

Just thinking out aloud here... Perhaps the only way to do this is have 2 copies of the rom but in different folders the one where the Dipswitches are set to 4P are in One folder, and the other where the dips are set to 2P in another folder

Sorry one last question - for games where you dont need a 2player or 4player rom. Say Wrestle fest where you change the Dip switches... can i duplicate a Rom and for each set the dip switches accordingly? Reason for all this is i have 2 xbox pads on the front of the machine. So when its a party and 4 players want to play then great, however if just 1 or 2 people want to play then they dont want to be stuck with Marge on the 1player side, so the 2player rom option is very handy. Cheers

guys this is ideal, thanks very much for both your help

hi guys - in my Arcade wheel... i would like the 2player rom right next to the 4player version. So for instance - Simpons to look like it shows up twice however one is 2p and the other is 4p. Currently the 4player rom is in my library, if i simply drag in the 2p varient would it add alongside or overwrite my existing 4p rom? Cheers

Hi all So all of sudden after doing a simple copy of my launchbox folder loading dolphin via bigbox works fine however when i ESC out of a game it crashes and i need to get the keyboard out to task manager it or alt tab back to big box. Using vulkan, and onboard apu with the ryzen 2400g. Used to exit completely fine. It seems to have reset itself as i had to redo the xbox controller remaps. Odd one but any help hugely appreciated gang. Thanks

Hi all - where are all the files which store the settings seen in this pic guys? Per game pretty much. I want to back them all up as i need two sets of them. One set for joystick control panels, and a 2nd set for track all/spinner populated panels...

Hi guys.. will try do a video but theres a few games i have come accross in mame, seem to only effect old games where the sound has what seems like an annoying glitch noise in rythem every half second or so, then stops and restarts randomly. Its worse in donky kong and qbert... Anyone else get, or not get this?.. using mame latest build 0.220. many thanks Kinda sort of sounds like static or a speaker is blowing. Very odd

@RETRO - using unified. to be honest, my solution to only have Arcade cycling through at the intervals ive changed it to is fine.... when i return to it it is sluggish in the morning i must admit so ideally a reboot is needed to release it all... it is nice to have a machine constantly on, however i dont think many people actually do this so a reboot daily isnt really THAT bad (Anymore) @DOS - I tried WMP and didnt have long enough to test its performance when it was clear many of the videos played poorly compared to VLC. I notice that there is a slightly updated version of VLC compared to the one in your third party folder, but doubt that difference was it. And in fact, im sure i used the most uptodate VLC and didnt notice any change. I have applied the very good stickied thread you guys have done on the steps to improve, thats helped too.

thanks for a reply and better clarity on your HQ, its appreciated Retro808. I have 46 system wheels, all bonefide systems not these playlist system (capcom classics etc). Total of 13,000 games. 3TB drive, ryzen 5 2400G, 8GB 3000mhz ram, win 10.

ok

big box absolutely has a Ram issue.. I had a recent post about this which has gone on deaf ears. the only way to not return after a few hours of my machine crashing out to desk top is by changing attract mode to not change systems, and start after 5 minutes, plus change after 40 seconds.. Doing that it stays on (like hyperspin did fine)
