It might be the -video in the file name. I just changed a bunch of SNES video names adding that in and the videos quite working. Take it out and it works fine.

No worries. We really are not sticklers for things like this and do not move threads a lot, but I think the Games DB mods frequent these subforums more so you may get faster answers in the right area.

*Moved topic to the Games DB subforums* The Games DB moderators do have set parameters for criteria being entered so they would be the best to answer your questions. I do know for #1 when you register for the Games DB there is a link to submit a new platform.

Take a look. Definitely has the issue you are experiencing. No worries on not seeing it. This forum is pretty relaxed in things like that. A good thread to follow and if you still have issues post there since Jason has responded a good bit in it.

This has been an issue mentioned previously and Jason has looked into it. There is a thread about it. I believe Jason is still working to try and solve. It is not present for all users, but it is known for some.

We may have someone here in the community that could eventually help but you are likely to get a faster response on a forum dedicated to the emulator.

Just open the folder your Launchbox.exe is in and you will see a dedicated music folder. In it will be subfolders for platforms and background.

If you need to download just 3D box art for games just highlight all the games for your library and go to Tools>Download Metadata and Media. In the wizard tick only the box for 3D Box Art and leave all others unchecked. There will also be a screen for you to choose if you want it to download and replace any existing media or to only download for games missing that media. Then finish out the rest of the wizard prompts and let it run. Since you already changed the image group to 3D also make sure in tools you edit the image priority for 3D Boxes and put some back up options of the image type you would want to show for any games that do not have a 3D Box image to download.

There is a Start In Fullscreen setting in the options. Just tested and work fine.

There really is not a lot of mention of them out there but I did see the three games show up in references to games released on Cave's first hardware. I think many of the games listed as Cave were published by other companies.

Did you try what the error is telling you to do? Go into the backups folder and find the settings.xml with the last date. Copy it and paste it in the data folder namging it Settings.xml

@eatkinola I would not mind testing as well. I want to pay you back somehow for the custom field theme code you helped me out with.

You have to set the control mappings in both the emulators and in BigBox. Some will work outright, but always best to set them. For the games you will need map the controls in each emulator directly. For Mame just launch a game and hit Tab on your keyboard. Map the controls you want using the input options in Mame. You can set universal ones for all games using Input (General). Then afterwards you can set game specific ones by editing the controls in the option Input (This Machine). Also go in the settings in BigBox and go to keyboard controls and map the controls you want for BigBox there for your Tankstick.

Would help to know what emulator. Tankstick should work relatively easy on most emulators. I use it with not much issue. The 4 settings on the tankstick are only for custom mapping the controls of the tanktick to specific keys if you do not want to use the stock mapping. Mode 1 is not programmable. Mode 2-3 are. Did you open the emulator and bind the controls to your tankstick?

Step back for a second and provide us some images. Go to Launchbox then Tools>Manage Emulators. Send us a pic of the first tab and the associated platforms tab. Then go to a game and right click>edit and post an image of the launcher tab and the emulation tab. This will help up spot any issue in set-up

Good to know. I would still place the videos in the correct folder though.

I have never used this system as I do not have Atari loaded but it took me all of 3 minutes to get it working in Launchbox. You likely have a simple disconnect in how you set it up in Launchbox. If you want to give up, your choice. But plenty of people here trying to help you with something that actually does work.

You need to have the platform name listed in the associated platform tab and then choose the Retroarch core in that screen as well. The command line is not needed in the first screen.

This is the old method for startup videos. For new method just do below. Create a folder called Startup in your \Launchbox\Videos folder Drop and video file into that folder. It does not have to be named anything particular. BigBox will pay it as named. If you place more than one in there BigBox will use different ones at startup. Tip: If you have video play issues with it try using Windows Media as that player if you are using VLC and see if that helps.

Thanks DOS. I have seen you all do it a little more now than before, but figured be safe.

@Dynamite Jewduh In Launchbox go to Tool>Options - In the Legacy setting look in SideBar and choose "Show Counts" there is also an option to "align right" as by default it aligns left next to the text.

Typically it says it. Something like (No-Intro) NES.

@ModerateNOOB It's not so much that they are the ones to get, but rather getting a no-intro from a site known to house good working roms. You can easily grab a no-intro from some random site and it be junk. We typically do not direct/name rom sites on the forum due to those little legal concerns.

lol thanks @neil9000 forgot about the cue file as well. Just noticed he did have some games that were already in .bin and no .cue.

That’s likely your issue why you could not get these to work in epsxe. .ecm is a compression format. You need to un-ecm the file and get it to a true .bin and .cue file. If you google epsxe .ecm file you should get hits on how to do so.
