So how do you still have 11.1 installed then? It should have overwrote that exe and reverted it to the version you ran the installer of.
-
Then you did something wrong. Running the installer does not delete existing data. Look at the folder structure and make sure it did not install Launchbox and extra folder deep. Make sure it is not \Launchbox\Launchbox
-
In your \LaunchBox\Updates folder you can simply run the installer of the version you want. It will not override any platform or game data/media or any of your settings.
-
You stop updates by turning them off the items you said you just did.

Yeah that was my bad I initially posted "UI Exit" and I know it should have been "UI Cancel". @JoeViking245 thanks for posting the pics to assist.

Some of this is already possible: (FYI at the top of the forum under "Help & Support" is a link to "Request a Feature" this is the best avenue as users can vote. More votes, better chance it gets added) 1. This has been requested, but has not been voted on enough to get added. Small dev team so many of the items added are things the larger community votes for. 2. Never really seen this one requested, but there is an option in BigBox view settings to have BigBox remember the last game per platform. By ticking that each time you enter a platform it will go to the last game you were on. 3. The BigBox default theme does have a view to show recent games. You will need to change the view in that theme to see it. All theme will typically have different views. There are several that have a view to show recently played. You can also create a "Recently Played" playlist if you want to centralize that list. 4. This has been requested, but has not been voted on enough to get added. Small dev team so many of the items added are things the larger community votes for. 5. Data is available and shows in various themes. The Game Detail screen in BigBox shows playcount. Some themes can show different data depending on how the theme creator coded it. The Game, Platform, and # times played typically shows in the game details screen regardless of theme. In BigBox Game Details settings there are options you can tick to show in that screen. 6. You can make a "Favorites" playlist that will pull any game you tag as favorite in it. Also, moved to more appropriate sub-forum. This one if for the Games Database.

That's incorrect. The Exit in the LaunchBox/BigBox Pause Menu is also for exiting a game. Inside Mame's controller mapping did you set the command for "Cancel UI" to be the same buttons you set inside LB/BB controller/keyboard settings for exiting a game? Typically we recommend doing that. Mame should exit fine from both your controller and from the Pause menu without the need for any AHK script. If you do not have your mapping set like I mentioned set it up that way and test. What version of Mame are you using (standard Mame, MameUI, Arcade64)?

short and sweet question for inital loading...
Retro808 replied to gmee123's topic in Playlists & Playlist Media
Issue is both the platform level and the game level have wheel views. So simply saying you want it to drop to the wheel view does not clarify much. I believe I understand what you are wanting. Can you reread my last post and see if that is what you are talking about? -

Are you talking about the difference between the pic in your first post showing the Text of Arcade in the upper left and in your video it instead shows the Wheel View repeating the platform clear logo over and over again? I think what you want is the pc in the first pics to show that same wheel with Arcade logo, correct. If so than on the system in the first pic you just need to change the view you are in. You can either go to the View settings in BigBox and change "Platform List View" to one of the Platform Wheel Views or in the keyboard or controller binding section map a key/button to the command for "Change View". If you go to the View setting in both computers you will see you likely have Text View in one of them for the Platform view and Platform Wheel in the other computer. -
BigBox crash while sitting idle doing attract mode

That I already did as I had found some issues and reported to y2guru which I know he worked with you on his updates. -
BigBox crash while sitting idle doing attract mode
Retro808 replied to MrSco's topic in Troubleshooting
It was one I made in the Theme Creator. I am going run default today and test for a crash. I have tested on my big cabinet with the default theme and still got a crash, but that build has different specs so could be something entirely different. I will report back on this one I have set it to default theme. -
BigBox crash while sitting idle doing attract mode
Retro808 replied to MrSco's topic in Troubleshooting
Completely understand. I do have logs on for all systems. So I will run them all and send logs. Here is actually a log from the last close out on the cabinet with the Ryzen CPU (Mini-cabbuild). It does reference a memory issue. I am curious as to why (is 16GB just not enough?). This cabinet runs only Arcade platforms (Arcade, CPS, CPS2, CPS3, SNK Neo Geo, and Cave). All are only using Mame/Mame Roms. Theme is minimal in displayed media (non-full screen gameplay video, box art, clear logo, and favorites icon, text list view). The them was created in the Community Theme Creator. Specs: Ryzen 2200g, 16GB Ram, 2x 1 TB Internal 3.5" SSD, no dedicated GPU. I will look to see if I can find a log from a crash on the i7-7700k build or post one after it does. Debug 2020-07-01 08-45-35 AM.log -
BigBox crash while sitting idle doing attract mode
Retro808 replied to MrSco's topic in Troubleshooting
@Jason Carr This is something I have had happening for a long time and it is such a random event. 2 of my set-ups that run constantly experience it. I have not mentioned it in a while since I remember you have not had stability issues. It is really such a random event as to when it occurs, but it usually is after a few hours. I have kept up with drivers and Windows updates. It occurs regardless of theme in BigBox. I have not been able to pin it down to any additional background software and it has occurred on older and updated drivers. Both set-ups use VLC in the BB setting. Not saying it is BB related, just giving some additional data. Specs: Cabinet 1 - Core i7-7700k, 32GB Ram, GTX-1080 Cabinet 2 - AMD Ryzen 2200G, 16GB Ram, No Dedicate GPU). This cabinet only runs Mame roms. I cannot confirm if my other cabinets had this happen as these two are the only ones running almost daily. I will test on the others to see. -

Current BigBox state will not load directly into a single platform If you only have one or even into a specified platform if you have more than one. If Arcade is your only platform you can just set your Default Startup View to All Games. In BigBox settings >Options>Views and set it there. -
What view is your BigBox set to startup at? (BigBox Setting>Option>Views will show you the default startup view). Maybe a pic of what your Launchbox platform list looks like (the left window pane in LB) and a pic of what what you are seeing in BigBox would help.
-
The -01 is not required. It is just how you would name if you had multiple files for the same game. So if you had 2 videos you would name them "Name-01.mkv" and "Name-02.mkv". The video file will still play if named the with the numeric value. When you download inside the LaunchBox UI it will use that convention to make sure the next one downloaded is -02 and so on. I would use the -01 just to keep things in line, but again, it is not required.
-
Do you have any of these boxes checked in your setting in LaunchBox? (>Tools>Manage Emulators and edit Citra). If so, uncheck and test.

Controller exit button: Doesn't work in BigBox
Retro808 replied to kaega2's topic in Troubleshooting
If you set the button for the "Exit" command in BigBox that is the wrong field. You need to set it for the one labeled "Close Active Window". "Exit" field in BigBox is for closing BigBox itself. -
That's the default fallback so an image is at least shown if there is no platform background image. Background images are located inside the startup theme's folder. That arcade image you see is named "Default.jpg" so you can use any image you want as a default. Just add it an name it Default.jpg. I did not add a ton of images as this theme was just something I tinkered with to help Sirgubster9. So it was not a complete collection of media. All you need to do is add more images for your platforms that do not have any. Make sure to name them exactly as the platform is named in your LB set-up. Add background images to: \LaunchBox\StartupThemes\Multiple Image Controller\Images\Background\

Nice! I just corrected my prior imports of RingWide games since it had been a year. Looking forward to more media for them. Thanks for all the drops on these and the other arcade boards.
-
Maybe this one? I tested this one and the one earlier and they both work. What tab are you putting it in? I do not use Desmume so not sure what would be the issue if this one does not work. $Esc:: { WinClose, ahk_exe {{{StartupEXE}}} }
-
Did you refresh your image cache? In BigBox settings for images there is an option to refresh the image cache. Sometimes you need to do this when adding new images.

That posted script does not look right. Try this: $Esc:: Send !{f4}
