  1. If this is the same issue you posted here there is no need to open a new thread on it.

    Have you tried to reimport one of the same games to see if it sticks? During the import process you should see a check box for "Force Importing duplicates" check that and see what happens. 

    I would also recommend looking in your Launchbox/Data/Platforms folder for your PS2 xml and opening it to see if the games are listed in it. If they are there then an option you have in LB is likely hiding the games. Also make sure for some odd reason there are not 2 PS2 xml files.

    any chance one of those programms is free?

    OBS and the Game DVR built into Windows 10 are free. I have not used Fraps but a quick hop to their website showed a free 'restricted" version and a paid "unrestricted" version.

    If I take the premium version of emu movies, is it going to rescan and add vids for my games?

    You have to link your premium account in Launchbox then manually choose to rescan for videos. The media import wizard will have check boxes so you can uncheck image media and just leave the video boxes checked.

    Yup, usually emu artwork is in creative commons license but I could not find any info on artwork threads. I though maybe the creators share this information while uploading their stuff at the site. I want to use some stuff in my themes but unsure of the status.

    Well, best thing is to post on the creators thread and tag them or send a PM about it. I would always recommend sending a note out of professional courtesy.

    Are you serious?

    Yes, hopefully he is joking. 

  4. You actually will not bind the specific action to a combination of buttons you bind a "hold" or HotKey and then you bind a button for each action. 

    In RA find the input then Input Hotkey Binds options. 

    Go to "Enable Hotkey" and bind that to your Left Thumbstick.

    In that same menu section bind your Save, Load, and Reset to your button of choice and do that for all that you need.

  5. Hmm not sure. It should work. I know in your other thread you said you got a code from Zen Studios as well. Just want to confirm you need 2 codes from them. 1 for PBFX2 and a separate code for PBFX3. You did get two correct?

    It doesn't play to the end of my 20sec "long" video tho, and I can't change it to have it play out the whole video either... :(

    As long as you are on a version from 7.12 to current, videos should play full length. The video (or videos as it will randomize) simply need to be put inside a folder called "Startup" located inside \Launchbox\Videos folder. If you do not have that folder there create one. The videos can be named anything. Just place them all in that specific folder. BigBox should then play them in full.

    Good question!  I'm on version 9.3.

    Yeah it should be fixed at least I remember Jason putting a fix out for something with playlists and auto-updates not happening. I am on the latest beta and just tested adding a new game to a manual playlist and the count updated. I think the other machine is still on 9.3. I will check and if so test on 9.3.

  8. @Sithel Test this and let me know if it will work. If you want random platform art it has to have all the images in the backgrounds folder. You can remove art for any system you do not have to reduce size more. I tested with quite a few systems and no issue, but let me know if you have any.

     

    Simple.zip

    "Simple" has no game images, cart/disc images. Just Unified backgrounds, Platform clear logo, Game clear logo, and Now Loading text.

  9. I would recommend the AHK below instead. The original code will work, this one just properly closes the emulator instead of forcing it closed. This is better to also use with emulators that have save states that will require the game/emulator to be exited properly to create the save state. This was identified from an issue with Higan and the original code. It did not close Higan how it wanted to be closed and was not properly saving games on exit. 

    You can use it with any emulator. Just simply change the "Jnes.exe" to the name of the emulator's .exe.

    $ESC::WinClose, ahk_exe Jnes.exe

    @Retro808 Just wanted to say thanks! I love what you have here, but I wanted to ask if you could do a request?

    I don't have all this artwork or want to take up a lot of space, but I still like this theme but asking if it could be a little more simple. Could all the art be removed except game logo and platform logo then moved to the middle?

    Could you just make 1 theme platform.xaml and I could just copy it to make the rest? Here's pic of one you have that I changed to what I was looking for. Thanks again and any help is appreciated !

    I am actually in the process of simplifying the theme. Jason provided an update and it will allow less artwork now. The theme will still require the platform background artwork as that is the basis of it. 

    Do you want to use just one background image for all platforms? If so I can make a version for that. Also you would not need to make any more xaml. I would make just a default and it will work for all since you do not want disc or cart images. Let me know and I can get an edit over to you.
