For anyone interested you can find my AHK script for working around this issue here: https://github.com/witchert/arcade It monitors the current active window for applications you care about and sets LEDBlinky for you. This should mean you can alt+tab between games and games like Street Fighter V that open and close multiple windows should all be dealt with gracefully. I'm doing similar things for xpadder profiles in cases where xpadder auto profile doesnt recognise windows so I'll probably add that to the above link if anyone is interested. You can leave the Launchbox LEDBlinky integration turned on so you dont have to configure the games that work fine (MAME etc)

@Jason Carr that was my assumption too - in my case this is running steam games, for example Street Fighter V and Sonic Mania both do this. I think the ideal is that it would be based on the executable with focus rather than making an assumption about whats running but thats an LEDBlinky problem rather than a LaunchBox one. Maybe I'll make an AHK script to do that.

Yep I'm still having the same problem too. The LEDBlinky log shows a GAME_START event completion immediately followed by a GAME_END start and complete. Mitigation seems to be to set a game start delay in the LEDBlinkyConfig application (Game Options tab, "Game Start Delay" in the Game Start fieldset). This doesnt really fix the underlying issue but at least my controls light up correctly. Latest version of LEDBlinky (6.5.0.0).

You can extract the zip anywhere you like. You dont need rocket launcher. Just edit the ini file using notepad or similar so that it points to your ultramap executable. Then run the ultramap.exe file from the zip and it should update your stick config whenever mame starts up.

hey Nelson - I've just migrated from attractmode and am after the same thing. I've hacked up the ultramap plugin for rocket launcher so it'll work for Launchbox. It's very hacky and will only work for MAME at the moment, but maybe its enough to get you going. I'll probably spend a bit more time on it over the week and see if I can get other platforms working. It should just be a case of running it on start up, but you'll need to edit the included ini config file as well. It has sensible defaults for most mame roms. If we could get more variables passed to the AHK script you can assign to each emulator in the LaunchBox config then getting this to work would be super easy. Ideally we need to know; the current emulator or system name (i.e. "MAME", "Sega Genesis"), and the ROM you are loading ("aburner", "rracer"). lb_ultramap.zip
