Pretty basic question here but did you map both controllers in the PCSXR UI? By default Pad2 should be set to none, maybe you accidentally mapped it with the same controls?

Try putting the following in the Running AutoHot Key tab of the edit emulators screen for RPCS3 in Launchbox. $Esc:: { WinClose, ahk_exe {{{StartupEXE}}} }

Are you waiting more than 24 hours? The DB only gets updated once a day. I know you said you check back the next day, but maybe your a re checking before the update actually took place.

We wait with baited breath......? Keep up the good work! ?

Glad you got it sorted!

Did you do this while Launchbox was open? If so it will not keep. It has to be closed if you edit a xaml. You can do what Neil said and just delete the games, then import the .iso from the new path and choose not to download media. Launchbox will attach the existing media.

If for some reason they do not show in LB or BB be sure to refresh the image cache also.

Launchbox does not use any cores by default. You have choose the one you want. In the Associated Platforms tab of the edit emulator screen in Launchbox under the Core column you click the dropdown and select the core you want to use. You have to setup Retroarch how you want it first and the cores you want are downloaded. This way all the cores you are using will be sure to show and work when Launchbox sends the command line.

Game Controls FS (Full Screen - Beta) View File A variant of the "Game Controls" theme that shows either a Game Specific controller mapping or in absence of a game map it will show a Platform Specific controller mapping in Full Screen (FS). A sample of images are supplied courtesy of @OhBoy. It is designed for those that will create their own mapping images or those that have them already and want a way to show them without having to override the current LaunchBox image files. The Images shown for display are only samples of how the theme will look. NOTE: All images must be placed in a specific folder structure and follow a standard LaunchBox naming convention to work with this theme. SEE BELOW. How to set-up: All images must be placed in the following folder and structure. (I have included the folder structure and ReadMe in the zip just copy it into \Launchbox folder.) (Pics below to show how this should look) 1) Place a folder called "Game Controls" in the \Launchbox\Images folder (It would be \Launchbox\Images\Game Controls\) 2) All platform specific control images must be named as the platform in your set-up is named and placed in the \Launchbox\Images\Game Controls folder (Example Sony PlayStation platform: \Launchbox\Images\Game Controls\Sony PlayStation.jpg) Note: The name must match how you have the platform named in Launchbox. 3) All game specific control images must be named exactly as the game is named in your set-up or as the LB Database ID (the LB Database ID is best used for games with symbols in the name as currently the coding has trouble pulling game files since LB will display ":" in the title but Windows will convert it to "_"). The image must then be placed inside a folder that is named exactly as the platfrom is named and the folder must be placed in the Game Controls location. Game Specific Controls folder example: (Example Sony PlayStation platform: \Launchbox\Images\Game Controls\Sony PlayStation\ ). The control image for the game specific is placed in the above folder folder:(Example Alien Trilogy for Sony Playstation: \Launchbox\Images\Game Controls\Sony PlayStation\Alien Trilogy.jpg) IMPORTANT: The theme is searching for a .jpg if your images are .png you must either change your image file extenstions or I have left a ReadMe in the theme's folder on how to edit the theme. It is simple and only takes a few steps. I have included @OhBoy controller images with his approval. You can download what he has created here. He has a Startup and Pause theme as well.

Game Controls (Beta) View File A no frills Pause Theme that shows either a Game Specific controller mapping or, in absence of a game map, shows a Platform Specific controller mapping.

Well it is an aesthetic design that Jason wanted and some users do actually like. To offset for those that do not, Jason chose to keep the Old Default and even made it available to free users.

I appreciate that. If I do I will be sure to tag you for credit and link to the download of the direct images.

In the \Launchbox\Data\Platforms folder are all the platform xml files that contain the games and their metatdata for all the games you imported for each platform.

As in what all the games are that were produced for specific systems? Or do you mean like a text list of all the game for the systems in your specific Launchbox?

It is right at the bottom when you click to add a new submission for a game.

If you feel it should be added create a log in for the GamesDB and submit it. The moderators there will make the determination to add or deny.

There is no option in the new default theme for that. You can use the “Old Default” theme to go back to that look.

Was testing the theme a bit with the fullscreen images from @OhBoy and realized the inset image style in the first pics does not do it justice since it makes some of his outer edge text a bit small. So figure why not also make a fullscreen version. Just a simple text for the menu options and the image. Been kind of slacking on this so my apologies. I will get this one zipped up and type up how the folder structure needs to be and post it, then get the other one done.

Not worrying about folder and path names, but if the game name is exact except for the file ending then maybe you can edit the xaml and do a find all/replace .7z with .iso this way it made the file name now the “game name.iso” then when do a rom path change it is now looking for the .iso. Hope I am making sense.

Beside the drive letter, Is the name of the rom file the same with only .7z and .iso differing?

Very true. But considering how few working chd games there are I rarely update them unless the change log shows those games got updated. I havent downloaded a new chd in quite a long while.

Yeah this may only work with the few chd only games. So you may be out of luck.

Ahh. I missed that part. You could probably make a second Mame emulator that is used to launch only chd games. Then check the unzip option in it. And my post did directly say you could change where Mane looks for the chd.
