Definitely add a feature request if you feel it is needed. It does not hurt to make a request.
It did add it though as you stated and it does not know the region which is why it puts it in the root folder. The problem is you have a region specification and an artwork in that region folder so Launchbox is doing what you have set it to do. If you delete that image from that folder and refresh I am sure it will now show the image in the root folder.
Well if you have the Euro art located in the North American folder and your region priority is North American that is part of your issue. You need to remove it or Launchbox thinks it is North American art. When you add an image from the edit box it will usually add it to the main image folder not the subfolder. It does not know if you want it to be European, North American or what ever region. I do not think the prioritization was built to determine that when you are adding an image from the edit screen.
What region did you prioritize in Launchbox? Also does the region field for the game have a listing?
Normally if that field is populated for a game it defines the region artwork used and if not populated Launchbox will use the region you prioritized.
It is likely that code. It is a hard process close. Some emulators need to close properly. Try changing the code to the one below . It should close the emulator properly in order to complete the saves correctly.
If the exe file is a different name than what I have entered change that part to the actual name of the exe you are using.
$Esc::WinClose, ahk_exe visualboyadvance-m.exe
It is a community moderated database and likely those moderating are doing it in their free time when they have it. So doubtful a bug, likely need to give them some time to do what they do, when they can.
There is not. If you have not deleted Launchbox during your use of it there is an Updates folder that will house prior versions of Launchbox you have used. If you still have them you can always reinstall a prior version from there. Otherwise you can email support@unbrokensoftware.com and advise of your situation and why you would need an older version.
No worries. However, I would recommend not editing the xaml unless you have to and using the tool as designed. We have seen xaml files get corrupted and cause more issues than is needed.
Yes as and additional app. Write the two scripts you need, then compile both AHK .exe for the commands. Set both up in the additional apps field of the game. Choose the option to run one before and one after the game.
I've never experienced anything like this. Thoughts are I highly doubt there are hidden ini files or databases anywhere. I have several cabinets set up and any time I have updated rom sets, deleted a platform or roms the imports back in usually go without hiccup. There are some very random misses but not anything to make me assume there are hidden files. Though usually those misses I had were user error on my part (forgot to check a field during import).
For giggles I went ahead and deleted GameBoy color platform then added the 300+ roms in that set-up back into Launhbox on 2 different cabinets and no issue. Same game count before and after.
Are you by chance using a cloud share for your data or any chance have backup files of your platform xml files stored in the data folder? We have recently seen this cause issues for users. Just taking a shot in the dark.
Just uncheck the box for media when you get to those screens in the importer. You should see an "Uncheck All" box on the screens for downloading media from Launchbox and EmuMovies.
I dont use the full importer, but if memory serves me correct it uses the Mame database file to import by filtering for working games and adding clone roms to the additional apps option putting clones under the main game. It would be hard for it to know to import which specific roms most people use since there is no data for that in the xml file.
If you delete a rom media does stay.
I have Win 10 on a similar Nuc and works just fine with low specs. Never used BigBox on that Nuc, but I would agree with Dos. With that little ram BigBox might hog it all up.
Not sure what you mean by that? Launchbox can only import when you tell it to. Can you clarify? The only time it will auto-populate something is a playlist that is set to "auto" versus "manual" population.
Older versions you had downloaded before should still be in a folder called Updates. You can just run the one you need. Are you having issues with a current version?
Somewhat. Each platform you create will have it's own folder in the structure. For example Arcade would be \Launchbox\Images\Platforms\Arcade\Clear Logo you then place the clear logo called Arcade.png in that specific clear logo folder.
I suggest spending some time looking around inside your images folder at the different structures already created you will see where what images go.
I am pretty confident Jason is appreciative of things like this. We do not have a big dev team working on Launchbox. It really is just one great person putting his time and heart into something he loves and we get to benefit from that. $5 is truly a small price to pay to say Thanks.
You don't need to activate it. If you download via the downloader in Launchbox it places it in the correct folder with the correct name.
