There is no option in LB for that.

And this is why pictures go a long way to help troubleshoot. ? Glad your sorted @Chesteraarthur2

Please do not start multiple threads or make multiple posts for the same issue. I have merged your two threads. Can you share in image of what your platform name looks like in LB and what the folder structure and name of the file looks like. If they are in the right folder and named right it should work once you refresh the cache. Also all arcade platforms it is recommended to set the "Scrape As" to Arcade.

No currently that is how it works. I am not sure if it is intended to be that way or not. This might be something the dynamic duo would need to look at to allow BB setting to override the LB Priorities. Best avenue for now would be to open a BitBucket ticket (at the top of the forum under Help & Support use the Feature Request option) for this and then link to it in this thread. This way it can get voted on.

Yes, just create a playlist and make it auto-populate. Then select the criteria for Mame High Score Support.

I would set it up in RA. Usually with Mame and RA it is good practice to set up your exit combo in the emulator. I use the same controller and have it set in RA.

As was already mentioned earlier and I know C-Beats responded in this thread, but please keep all beta related issues or progresses to the beta thread. This way he and Jason do not have to look in multiple threads for issues and feedback.

Just confirmed the current mame data in LB is for 0.222. As an FYI the updates to Mame are not related to the LB version, but simply when the team has been able to update the file. So the Mame data at times can bet updated even if LB had not gone through an update.

1. There was no pic when I responded. You can see it is not in my quote and I can see you edited that post to add the pic later. 2. Yes I am opening the new default. But thanks for making an assumption that was completely wrong.

There is no pic above. Only text as you can see when I quoted the post . I get that, just advising it is still working the same as before the beta changes. I see references in VS when I open it.

Are you talking about while viewing in Visual Studios or something? I do not think any xaml format has changed. Plugins are still referenced the same. Add a reference to it in the user control. Working on a theme now with the new beta and I have not had to change anything with regards to plugins.

Yeah those need to be removed. Only thing in there should be the specific platform xml. That is what is confusing LB and BB. LB does not put backups there. Is this a build you did yourself or one of those builds people download like ColPipes builds?

Understand completely. It was a good right up for sure. Just wanted to make sure to highlight that one piece is something we recommend users do not do.

Running LB/BB as admin is not recommend as it can have consequences on other emulators/games as well as other possible issues. We have seen it numerous times cause more problems.

In your \Launchbox\Data\Platforms folder are there any backups of your platform xml files being stored in there? We have seen users make backup copies of those platform xml files and store them in that same folder and this exact issue happen.

Are you running LB stable version or the latest beta? If beta this is a known issue. Also if you are running the beta it is always best to post issues in the beta thread.

Working fine here. Is it doing it regardless of game or platform you are scraping?

Honestly, I have not messed with it in a while. Issue I was having is the LB Arcade - Marquee images defaults to a users Box - Front image priority is a marquee is not present and no matter what I tried it always displayed either the existing marquee image or the priority fallback. Even if I coded in a FallBackValue it still gave LB built in priorities preference. Hopefully next poll go round Marquee update can get voted more and it gets some updates. I can get it to work if Arcade - Marquee images are in a custom folder location, but that is just an unneeded workaround. I will mess with it again. Maybe I have learned more in the time and can get it to work.

Just an FYI he did release the files you can use to create additional platforms images. I believe GIMP which is free can open psd files.

Did you recently update anything? Windows or LaunchBox? Possibly change any drives or folders? I would right click a game and edit it. Then check the rom path to make sure it is still correct. If you try to run the game directly in the emulator does it still work there?

@sirgubster9 Just an FYI we may need to tweak the coding in the theme. The next version of LB that will come out will affect a piece of the code in the theme so I will have to tweak it to work. I have tested it with the new beta and it is not a major fix. Just a heads up in case you try using the beta LB version or for when the next stable version drops. It is just a small matter of replacing a few areas of text.

In his response to your very first post he linked to a thread about showing control mappings in LB Startup themes. He was advising using one of the Startup theme's that can display the custom control mappings before the game would probably be your better avenue.

I just tested what I think you are doing and it did focus on the game after adding. Steps I did: Selected my Windows platform, clicked the add button, added the game name and selected the .exe then clicked OK. Once done LB processed the data and added the game. The game was then selected and showing the media and metadata in the game details panel. Is that what you are basically doing and saying on your set-up it is not showing the game in the details panel when done?

My apologies. I forgot I had replied to this and then went looking for that old post I mentioned. Funny enough it was your prior post about pause issue with this controller. The mute thing I am not sure of. It is muting your PC and only occurs when in Mame?

Yes, but to be honest without us knowing what it is you are really doing it is hard to be concise on what you should do. Perhaps showing what the batch file you were using it doing would help someone better direct you. LB itself can close most emulators without needing any specific AHK. So you may be doing unnecessary steps based on what your old batch was doing.
