    BigBoxProfile

    in Third-Party Applications and Plugins (Released)

    Posted

    @Nixx this is amazing. Great work! Question: would it be possible to have multiple Bigbox settings profiles? My idea is to be able to have multiple Bigbox theme selections/views/transitions/options/etc profiles. So depending on the launch is how Bigbox would look and behave.

    This is because i have a lot of platforms and playlists, each configured with specific themes and views, and i would love to try new themes and settings, without potentially losing/overriding my current config.

    This theme is getting better and better! Beautiful work Saieno. 

    The arcade platform presentation is amazing. I love it and for sure will be my goto theme. 

    Food for thought:

    What do you think about making the arcade machines a little bit bigger so they are closer to each other and the marquee (if can be used there instead of the clear logo) can be seen more? 

    Would it make sense to add the title of the selected arcade game anywhere in the screen, or would that break the ilusion? Thinking about this because with small videos and sometimes weird clear logos you might not know what game is it. 

    The Intellivision cart/console are not centered in the screen (you can see this as they are not alligned with the selected box). 

    Keep rocking!

    In which File does Big Box saves all the Theme Settings which i saved for each Platform

    Following this topic as I very much would love to know this :)

    I admit I spend more time tinkering with my frontend setup rather than playing, and lately I achieved a level of customization of themes and views per categories/platforms/playlists that is preventing me from trying new themes and views, because I am scared of overriding something and not being able to easily come back to it after a while.

    I would love to have some sort of Save/Load states for the frontend UI, so in cases where I try something and don't like it, or after a while want to come back to a previous theme/view/effects config, or if I wrongly apply something, then with a couple of clicks I can get everything back the way it was.

    @T-tot your scenario of having UI presets/preferences depending on who's playing is something I did not think about and it's great.

    I'm sorry for reviving an old post but I want to ask if you still plan to make the logo for magazines, it's the only one I'm missing from this collection to finish, if necessary I can pay for it

    Hey, I did not find an image I liked at the time (and with the same type of art as the rest), and not long after I started using the BannerBox theme. 

    I will surf a little bit tomorrow and see if I can find an image I like, and make a logo. Cannot promise anything though.

    Are you in a new machine? If so, something must be different between the old and new one if you are getting that message. Even if you are in the same drive letter, you need to bear in mind that Windows stuff from the main drive can be in use as well, so something in the C drive or main drive or even the Windows User profile folder might have a different path than before. 

    Try sharing the entire error message with the description as well, to see what it is that cannot be found. 

    How do you launch Bigbox straight after Windows boot? Any flashable/image version in developpement?

    Thanks everyone for your answer. so basically, everyone is launching BB just by double cliking on the icon? I'm the only one who want to use a dedicated computer to play my games? How people with a bartop are doing? 🤨

    Hey! I run BB using a custom exe containing all the stuff and apps I want to run at startup as the Windows shell (simply choosing it inside gpedit). This exe will also launch explorer.exe once bigbox.exe is closed, so I can go to Windows and not be in a black Narnia XD

    In case you want to know about my process, this was the topic I shared it:

    This is from 2018, so I might have tweaked the bat file a little bit since then (one thing I remember is that bigbox.exe changed some versions ago and there was a second bigbox.exe inside a folder instead of the main one that was the actual app running). But all and all, I think the solution is still pretty accurate.

    Hey @Jason Carr, sorry I am a couple of updates behind; I am planning on setting Spanish up to date. Do you know an alternative to the Zeta app, but for Mac? Zeta does not have a Mac version (at least that I could find), and I am not able to get a hold of a Windows computer.

    help

    Check the action steps and locate the one "Select" command ("Selección") that is giving you the issue. You need to make sure that the layer being worked on is named the same as what is displayed in that action command. My wild guess would be that since you have Photoshop in Spanish, it displays "Capa 1", "Capa 2", etc. in the Layers section, instead of "Layer 1", Layer 2" and the action is not able to find them. If that is the case, you can easily fix this by editing the Layer names to what the action is requiring. Hope this helps.
