Retro808

Can you share a pic of your set up. Similar to the one Neil shared. Go to Tools>Manage emulators and edit Retroarch. Share a pic of the Details tab and the Associated Platforms tab.

Well I got it working. Still have not figured out a few things I want it to do. My hope was to have it use an existing marquee image and if one does not exist use the static background option. Problem is the way marquee support is coded into LB/BB, if a marquee image is not present it will default to your box priorities. So if a marquee is not present it reverts there and the code will always have an image to show which means the fallback is never triggered to the static image option. So for now I have to forego the existing marquee option and just use static image. Hoping Jason one day adds image priorities for marquee images. My goal is to release it on the forum, but not until I have it working right. @Headrush69 I will see if I can remote into my pc and get a video of it. Away from the house for a couple days helping family get land taken care of.

The issue is in BigBox you can only register a primary screen and a marquee screen. You cannot control when they can flip between each other. Even though you can set Mame to know when to flip to the portrait screen for vertical games BigBox still has it registered as the marquee screen. So that functionality does not exist currently.

I do not believe it is meant to show in an game image wheel. The start shows only in Text Games view.

This is actually what I use in a couple themes for marquees now. Some theme’s I use actual marquee images. In others I have a static background per platform and the clear logo switches per game.

@drewjbx It would need to be coded to do that. I think I have one I made I used to use. Will check when I at back at the house.

In the left hand pane in LB just right click on any listing and choose "Add" then "New Playlist". Under the auto-populate tab check the box to make it an auto-populate list and then select "Last Played" and choose the comparison criteria you want and enter a value.

Yes. Just open the Platform one and make the adjustments I did in the Game one.

Can you try the version I posted in my last response. That screen is a little different than mine it is actually not splitting the 1080 in half equally so it is not really showing at 540.

I was hoping to see the affect with you keeping the original size of the AF Alpha image. I know what the affect does per the code, but I needed to see how it looked on your screen so I could then know how to properly realign the canvas to get the bottom of the images to fit in the viewable area. Can you try this one.

@drewjbx Do me a favor and will you right click and edit that xaml I gave you. Look for a line that say Stretch="Uniform" and change it so it state Stretch="Fill" and show me those same 2 marquees. We will also need to adjust the layout but I want to see this first. Unfortunately since marquee images are not made to the same dimensions some compensation will have to be made.

Place the AHK script below in the Running AHK tab in Launchbox when you go to >Tools>Manage Emulators and edit RPCS3. I have this in mine and works fine. ESC:: { SetTitleMatchMode, 2 WinWaitActive, RPCS3 Send !{f4} }

Glad you are back up and running.

1: No. The downloaded metadata has nothing to do with if it was played or not. 2: This is likely the issue. Not all games have HD videos on Emumovies. So I would have other options checked.

I would recommend using a different version of that code. That old version is a hard close and can cause issues with emulators not saving save states properly. It was something that was found last year. I would use the code below instead. Not that the prior one did not work, this is just a cleaner shutdown process. $Esc:: { WinClose, ahk_exe {{{StartupEXE}}} } More appropriately since Cemu use Alt+F4 ESC:: { SetTitleMatchMode, 2 WinWaitActive, Cemu Send !{f4} } All scripts to close a game while in the game go in the "Running AHK" within Launchbox. The "Exit" script tab is for issue closing from the LB Pause Menu.

@Moleburt Nice. Glad you are sorted now.

Try this version and see how it looks. Yeah those lcd's are pretty much just a chopped 1080 screen. I have a couple so you would need to modiy the code as well. Your code looks different as the one I posted is my own custom theme. So try this one and share a pic of how it looks if it is not right so I can see how we need to adjust.

You should not need to rebuild. All the import metadata is stored in the files in the \Launchbox\Data folders so back those up to protect them. Downloading the newest version or even reinstalling a prior version over top does not mess with your roms or your media. So you can rerun the installer for the current version you are using and install in the same folder. But if you want to be safe back up your roms and media as well. You should already be doing that as is.

There are several posts on the forum about setting this up. Just ran a search and found this one.

You using an antivirus or MSI Afterburner/Riva Tuner? We have seen those block the exe from running. I would say if the answer if no to those questions try downloading a fresh install and extract it to another drive letter if you have a second drive or if not install in a completely new folder location. See if that runs then we can eliminate something on the pc being the issue.

No. It is already included in Launchbox download.

Not at this time. BigBox recognizes you have multiple controllers it just does not distinguish them as unique such as Joy1Button1 and Joy2Button1. It has been brought up before but it has not affected a lot of users. I would like to see this get updated myself, but for now it may not be high on the list of to dos.

OK just wanted to make sure. Did Windows by chance do an update? Or did you by chance notice if LB updated?

No worries. If you right click on the task bar and select Task Manage do you see LaunchBox or BigBox running at all?

Need a little more information. Cannot get what to load specifically? LaunchBox and/or BigBox? What exactly happens? Do you get an error, do you see anything, does it start to load then just stop?
