I had a similar scenario a long time ago, and the problem was that one of the XMLs still had an entry for the platform I wanted to delete. I figured this out, because I opened up all the xmls in Notepad++ at the same time, did a query for a keyword of my platform name, and searched in all opened docs. Found the entry (maybe in the Settings.xml or similar), removed it, saved it, relaunched LB, and voila; no more platform. Seems that LB reads all the Data xmls while launching, and if it finds entries for platforms in any xml (even though the platforms are not listed in the main Platforms.xml), it regenerates them again.

Jason, do you need me to review the Spanish files one more time, or the pack I shared on May 7th suffices for this release?

Here is a list, made with clones worth playing (either for their gameplay, their addons from the original version, or for their 4 player vs 2 player version).

Did not work @sundogak. I have a 360 controller, not ONE (checked and the guide button for both is called the same nevertheless). I do not have steam, but I am thinking of using that DLL as maybe it helps somehow. Thanks for your help.

Great. I asked because if you have a split set, you would not be able to do that, as child zips need their parent to run.

Hey @vahacris, if you are 100% sure you have a non merged set, then each zip file is a standalone version of a game, and you can remove the other zip variations if you dont want them in your library.

Nice addition for the users who do not have the details screen enabled In my case that I have the details screen it would dupe the instance, so I prefer the current version that only shows title and cover.

Thank you @sundogak. I already have dinput as I needed it to map my weird fightsick with keyboard keys. I will test your script in a very short while and post results. Thanks!

No worries. I will dig around.

Nice little app, thanks. Do you by any chance know/can recommend a way of displaying a specific background image using bsetshell until BB fully launches (currently showing a plain black screen), and something to hide the mouse right from the Windows boot?

From what I can infer, he just wants the options of single player, 2 players and multiplayer, but then again, if that is the case, is just a matter of bulk modifying the value in LB and thats it.

Gotcha. Ideally it would be great for the plugin to check if the game details screen is enabled or not in BB, and either launch the game directly or go to the details when pressed "Play game". Nevertheless, at its current state it is a great add-on, so thank you.

@Grila this is an INCREDIBLE feature! Thank you! I am not at home right now to test it, but if I have the game details screen enabled in BB, would I still be able to see the new cover preview with the options to play or choose another game? I love the details screen for the games, so my perfect scenario would be to trigger your plugin, get the custom display with the options to play or choose another one, but when choosing to play, to send me to the Details screen and not directly to the game. If this is how it is working now, then I apologize as I am too excited and could not wait to get home to test it and know how it works.

Now we're talking! Thanks bud!

Dragon, could you make the Unified logo with a small d? Thanks!

They randomize, but I get what you mean; I have like 10 vids and there is one specific that shows up 90% of the times, and one or two that never showed up yet

Thank you Neil, but I meant on the BB options menu, where the License name shows up. I want to customize that bg and stuff,

Nice rendition dragon. Does anybody know where can I override the default logo for this one and use a custom background in the options menu (for the Unified theme)?

Cheers LM. I saw the audit tool and thought it was MAME related only. Will play with it once I ger back home. Thanks.

Hey guys! Im on a quest; to have ALL my games with their corresponding front and back cover, 3d box, cart/disk, and a bg if possible. Maybe what I am about to ask can be done already, but I have not found yet how to do it. Is there a way of showing only the games that are lacking of specific media (and which media is missing), so the user can either run a media scrape through LB, or simply start adding manually the media type missing? Thanks!

Styph, just thinking out loud as a workaround; in the Unified support topic, Cid posted what to modify in the views to keep the wheel always visible. You would need to use the box only view (without the cart/disc) so they dont overlap. And you can then show the cart/disc in the game details page once you access it (so you dont miss that artwork). I dig your idea of having the wheel always visible.

Thank you bud! I am out of town for a week, but will check it out as soon as I get back.
