Super Nintendo is not missing from the DB. https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/platforms/games/53 The DB is community maintained, but moderators for the DB do have to approved uploaded and changed data.

Users have run pinball emulation successfully with Launchbox. Visual Pinball and Pinball FX2/FX3 to name a couple. A quick search found these two threads.

Do you have the box checked for Remember Last platform in the General option section? Works fine for me when that is checked. Without it the platform list just resets to the top of the alpha sort.

BigBox is designed for arcade cabinets. It runs in full screen only.

OK. There are some other questions that were asked. Can you provide answers for them?

If you have Check for Updates turned on and do not want it to automatically download and install make sure you do not have the Automatic Background option checked. This way LB will give you a prompt a new update is available and gives you the option to install or not.

Is this for Mame? By not working what do you mean? Do you get an error or does it just go black and return to LaunchBox? Did you test the games in the emulator to make sure they work? If this is Mame did you use the Mame full set importer and do you have a full mame romset? Right click the game, edit it and in the additional apps tab select the one you want as the default. There are several version as games for many platforms have different versions for different regions. It can be any number of reasons why. Bad roms, missing support files, and a number of other reasons.

Go into your Launchbox\Data folder and remove (just remove it from that folder, do not delete it in case you need to put it back) your BigBoxSettings.xaml. BB will generate a default one and see if you can move around with your keyboard then. If it works you should be able to remap your controls for BigBox.

That's the old way. Place any videos you want to use as a start up in \Launchbox\Videos\Startup folder. If you do not see that folder create it. The video files can be any length and any name. LB will randomize them on start up. Also the videos can be named whatever you want.

There is not. You used to be able to but startup was overhauled a while ago. Now videos play as BigBox is opened. So the video will play in full regardless if length then switch to BigBox or you can hit a button during the video to jump right in BB. The old version the video played before BigBox opened. Do you have your startup video located inside the \Videos\Startup folder?

Glad it is sorted.

Yes. Demul will run Mame roms/bios for Atomiswave.

In LaunchBox Under >Tools>Options there is a Debugging option. Turn it on. It will not generate logs that could be used to help troubleshoot if it shows any issues.

Plenty of marquee downloads in our downloads section of the forum.

OK, good to hear your others run fine. So definitely not a LB issue, but a Mame/Rom issue.

Dang, that would drive me nuts. 5 Mbps!

For sure you can get the games you want to work, and if the hunt is something you like by all means. It was something I did not mind doing in the past. Heck the hunting gave me a lot of things to read and learn from Should only require the rom and the support file. Test in Mame directly. The other games you imported work if launched from LaunchBox correct?

Very very rue, but that was more of a generalized recommendation since lots of roms remain unchanged. Seen way to many users here spend hours trying to chase down support files, or even good roms since some of these sites not only have old roms, but crap ones that do not work. Not anything I know you do not already know. I would rather recommend to a user up front to spend the little bit of time downloading a known rom set and work off of that then have someone spend unnecessary hours chasing files. Would have loved to have had that advice when I got into this long ago. @Rags2Rickius We always recommend setting the games up in the emulator first and testing they work. Then import in LB. This way if a game does not launch from within Launchbox it eliminates it being a rom or emulator issue. One less item to troubleshoot.

Ditch the Bin/Lst files. That method if pretty much no longer recommended. The preferred method is using the Mame Roms. When you import other Arcade platforms such as Atomiswave, SNK Neo Geo, CPS1, and so on set the scrape as option the "Arcade".

If you are running games in Mame the files should never be unzipped. The only ones that would be are chd files if a game requires a CHD (this game does not). The support file Heardrush mentioned needs to be zipped and can just be placed in the same folder as your other mame roms. It does not need to be added to LB. A question we should really know the answer to better troubleshoot...does the game run if you run it directly in Mame? Also if you are just downloading random roms and files from a site or various sites, that is a good way to not have working roms depending on the Mame version you are running.

Are you not able to edit those by clicking on the Graphics and Controller icons in the image? Been a while since I have messed with my Dolphin settings, but since I set mine up it has always only launched one window.

Of course it is slower when using the arrow keys. It is only increasing the image with each click by 0.001.

Cool. Glad you got it sorted.

Bottom right of the screen in LaunchBox. Tick the box labeled "Text"

Mame saves will not work if you are using LaunchBox high score features. They are disabled as a cheat prevention.
