Paste the AHK below in the Running AHK tab when you go to >Tools>Manage Emulators and edit Citra. The sleep time in the code is just due to Citra on my system opening with a slight lag so you may not need it. It will not cause issues to have it, but you may see Citra windowed first then fullscreen. So you can lower the sleep number if needed. Sleep, 2500 SetKeyDelay, -1, 110 Send {F11} Return

Can you test in LaunchBox. First confirm in >Tools>Options>Game Pause that Pause Key is set to "P". Then run a mame game from Launchbox and hit the "P" key on your keyboard. Does it just pause the game or does it bring up the LaunchBox pause screen and menu?

I cannot answer your first question as I have not really imported Steam or Epic games yet. As far as "platform categories" goes that give you a way to separate platforms into well...categories. You can create any category you want and place any platform or playlist in it. For example a common "category" is "consoles". So in that you can group all console platforms together. Or you can create a "Playlist" category and have that be the only place playlists go.

I would also confirm cheats are not showing in a game. Run a game in Mame you know has cheats and make sure you cannot see the cheat menu.

I delete the upload. Please do not post another creators artwork without their permission. Especially if it appears he deleted them from his own website for download.

In the plugin.ini you need to make sure the line for "cheat" is set to 0.

Is this when using LaunchBox or BigBox? Or both? What Mame are you using (standard command line Mame or something like MameUI or Arcade64)?

Try putting this in the Running AHK tab for WinuAE when you go to Tools>Manage Emulators and edit WinuAE. It is the "Escape" key that you want to use right? ESC:: Send !{f4}

@angerman Unfortunately I do not emulate the Amiga so I cannot confirm a good way to exit. How would the emulator normally exit. Is it Escape key or Alt+F4?

Cool just let me know if anything changes. Should be an easy adjustment. And get that thing mounted right! ?

Just changed the canvas and changed the image to Fill. We may need to change it to Uniform depending on how some marquee images look. So if some look really bad just open that file and look for the line of code showing Stretch="Fill" and change it to read Stretch="Uniform"

Yeah they are each unique depending on what you use to control you games and LB/BB. Do you have the same button (or buttons) you are using as the Pause in LB/BB set as the same buttons to pause that are set directly in Mame?

LOL. No worries. Glad it is sorted. I figured it would just be a fix of the code for the view. Keep that xaml handy. Any new theme you use just drop it in there. Even if the theme does not have that file just place that on in there. A theme does not need the PlatformMargueView.xaml or the GameMarqueeView.xaml to display marquee images.

If it makes the image look different post a pic. I want to see how it might have affected it.

Do any other Pause Themes work? You mention the game just pauses. Not sure if you mean it just pauses and you still see the game just in a paused state or you can see the LB/BB pause menu options but the controller image is not showing. Can you post a pic of what you see? If it is not even showing the LaunchBox/BigBox pause menu option then you either have not set a key/button to activate Pause or your emulator binding is conflicting.

Yeah you cannot edit the default theme. Also you cannot use that file I posted in the default theme. You have to use another theme or copy the default theme and name it something else. Than you can edit it.

@Tackett1980 Can you try this view. Just put it in the Views folder of the theme you are using.

If you open one of those image on that monitor does it display correctly? Also is this the same machine you are trying to have work with your TV from your other post?

If you go to Tools>Manage Emulators and then edit your Mame does it show you are pointing to the mame64.exe or the mame extraction exe (it would be named something like mame0218b_64bt.exe)?

Yes. I use an 8Bitdo controller. My exit is mapped to Start + Select. Works just fine without an AHK. Even if I switch to an Xbox One controller and remap to that it works. Not sure why it is not working for you. If you run a game and hit Alt+F4 on your keyboard does Xenia close?

I do not even use a close AHK and it works fine.

Wrong tab. Paste the AHK in the Running AHK Tab.

LaunchBox and BigBox have their own mapping settings. In Launchbox in the screen you are showing click on "Mapping" and set the "Exit Game" mapping. In BigBox look for a similar controller mapping section and set the command for "Close Active Window"

For Demul some systems it emulates will need bios files. Last Blade 2 since it is a Dreamcast game you will need to make sure you have the bios files for Dreamcast. There are quite a few good youtube videos on setting up Demul to run systems like Dreamcast and others. Some will even link to files you would need. You should be able to find bios sets on archive. Mame is similar are some arcade boards will require support files like a bios or sound file. If you download a full romset for mame those files are typically in the full set.
