In your \Launchbox\Data folder you can remove the InputBindings.xml file. That file contains the controller bindings you mapped.

Just want to add something about the affects of custom themes on performance. I read this thread again and someone mentioned they tried all themes and even "disabled almost all their options". If you use a custom theme and go into LB/BB settings to disable some options this does not, in many cases, affect what a custom theme does. Those settings usually only work on the Default theme. A custom theme's coding can override what settings you have changed in the LB/BB settings page. Manually editing the code of the theme is typically needed.

1st step any time you troubleshoot a game not playing is test it directly in the emulator without using LB. When you do this do the games work?

This means the license you are using is known to be a shared or a pirated license. You an remove it and continue to use the freeware version or purchase a legit license from our website. If you feel this is an error you can email our team and explain. support@unbrokensoftware.com

Something like this might require a user created plugin as natively, LB cannot do this. There is no setting.

uncheck "Versions" under >View >Show/Hide

LB >Tools >Options >Updates

Well honestly I cannot say what was going on as it would have been more helpful to see the image I requested. Then been able to see the contents of the data xaml for the platform you were having issues with. At least you are back and running without the issue.

Need a bit more information since they are a bunch of emulators out there. What specific emulator? What does your set-up (Some pics would help >Tools >Manage >Emulators and edit that emulator) in Launchbox for that emulator look like?

Can you post an image of the contents of your \Launchbox\Data\Platform folder? Usually this issue occurs when someone has backup copies or multiple versions of a platform xml file in there.

That’s because the error you are sharing is not one related to the store fronts issue. This error is something else. I am not sure what this one is. It is odd that it is showing that a theme is not set in that error log. I would recommend rerunning the installer. since you said this happened after accepting the update. Possibly something did not install correctly. In your \Updates folder should be the latest installer exe. Rerun it and before it finalizes confirm it is installing to \Launchbox folder and not \Launchbox\Launchbox.

In LB >Tools >Options >Updates section turn on the option for Betas.

I am not 100% on how new systems get added. The subforum below is a good spot. I think the first pinned topic you can add a request there. Search though as I thought I saw another Request thread in there. https://forums.launchbox-app.com/forum/70-contributions/ Also here is an ongoing BitBucket ticket for new platforms. https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/6461/adding-missing-platforms-to-the-games

The bitbucket site is needed so the devs can have a single point of reference for bug reports. A forum gets filled with other miscellaneous type posts and things can get lost. The forum’s search, organize, and filter functions are not as useable. Our dev team working on Windows LB is only 2 and they do not spend a lot of time watching the forum. Being able to extract a report from Bitbucket is more efficient. You are always welcome to report issue here. The mods will due their best to help and report things to the team.

Look for the post in bold red font.

Do you do the workaround steps I posted in this thread? You have to set that field to false and leave it as false for now. Everyone that has experienced this issue has successfully down the workaround as LB is back and running. This will suffice until the devs release the next beta likely early in this week.

That’s up to what the emulator requires. LB has nothing to do with the file type an emulator can run. Typically .xbe is used but been a while since I messed with xbox emulation so not 100% on what others may be used.

Well that mind of depends on what you are wanting to code for. Building themes for LB/BB you would use basically WPF which uses XAML as the frontend language/C# as its backend). AHK is usually used for scripts for launching special requirements for games.

Did you go into BB settings to the controller mapping section and set up the controls?

Can you share a pic of the error.

A couple things. 1. You need to use a theme that supports videos on that Platform level. Most due like the Default theme, but some do not. So just want to clarify that. 2. You would need to download a video of the consoles boot video. When you download it be sure to name the file exactly as the platform is named in your LB/Bb and save it to the \Videos\Platforms folder.

Yeah, this error would not mess up LB like you are stating. I suspect you have something else going on. As for the "if it isn't going to be fixed any time soon" comment I think you did not read this part from one of our devs...

Considering the cost difference between the licenses (Android $15/$30 vs Windows $30/$75) you would likely have to pay the difference. If you got this on Black Friday it would likely be the differences in those prices. Do not take that as a given. That is just my view. However, you would have to email our team. Send them an email and explain your concern and request. support@unbrokensoftware.com
