I am not the most knowledgable in RocketLauncher set-ups but we do have a few members here who hopefully will chime in. In the meantime, you did not mention if the games run correctly while in RocketLauncher only. If you open RocketLaucher UI and try to run a game from within RocketLauncher directly does the game launch or do you still get the Mame UI screen? Since Launchbox is only running the roms correct if you choose run in Mame than it sounds like something in RocketLauncher is not set up correctly.

@Omen I believe I saw that mentioned earlier in the thread and Jason did mention leaving a parameters column in there to allow for adding those parameters. So it should be coming.

I know I would not mind if you post what you have so far. Anxiously awaiting better marquee images than what exist.

@FreeSoftwareServers It may be a case of linking the ticket here and asking forum members who have a similar view as you to respond in that ticket the wheel spin is not meeting needs. It makes a bigger impact when you can visibly see how many people really want something. It has been a few months since implemented and in this thread there have only been 5 members to vocalize a want and in the bitbucket ticket 3 have responded since Jason closed it. It is likely going to take a lot more voices. Just my thoughts. If it ever makes it to a poll I would vote on it.

View stats will probably not get the job done. That does not really tell Jason how much of the community really wants this fixed. I would recommend seeing if a bitbucket was opened for it and make sure to vote on it or if one does not exist open one and post it in this thread to get it voted on. Hopefully then you can get enough votes and it can be included in the next poll for things Jason will try to get implemented.

It lis likely Jason has not gotten the fade background option working yet. He did advise in the first post that he still has a bunch of little things to get up and running before he launches Next as an official release. So you can definitely count on it will be coming.

AHK will work as I use one to close PFX3 with my arcade joystick. Are you using a controller or an arcade joystick? Also are you launching directly into tables? A simple AHK like below works (this is not what I use but tested it). This will let my 4 button on the arcade close Pinball FX3 and return to BigBox. 4:: Send !{f4}

If you are running the Canary build of Citra their recent updates to Canary changed something that make it no longer work properly with Launchbox. You will have to switch to the nightly builds of Citra. We discuss it here in the post.

Even if it was a double post it is not an issue. This forum does not frown upon things like that. Our ultimate goal is helping each of our members even if the same question is asked over and over. One of the things that makes this forum great.

@ckp it is the standalone we are talking about. Citra creators must have altered something in the Canary build since that is technically the experimental build like Cutting Edge used to be.

Are you using a full ultrawide or and lcd that was custom cut for marquee shape? I have an ultrawide and the marquee images work fine without any adjustment needed on my end. To be honest it was a year ago I set it up so I don't remember if perhaps I altered a video setting in the pc settings or perhaps in the Nvidia software.

There really is not a setting in Launchbox/BigBox for that. It might be something that can be altered in a specific theme xml file, but I do not know how to do that. By default BigBox looks in the Arcade-Marquee folder of the system specific image folders for the marquee of each game. If nothing is present there than I believe it defaults to the box image. So if you want certain images for each game place them in the Arcade-Marquee folder. Each file has to be named after the game as it is named in your Launchbox set-up. For now BB only supports image files for marquees.

It is definitely something with the Canary build that changed. I get a crash as well. Nightlies run fine.

Are you using nightly or canary build? I was using canary but past few weeks switched to nightly builds and have not had any issues loading. I just updated the latest nightly and no issues launching from Launchbox.

@Bob Benson Are you looking in the platforms folder or the playlists folder? Those that you are trying to get rid of are actually playlists created by Launchbox so in the \Launchbox\data folder you need to look in the Playlist folder.

How are you trying to delete them? The best way is to close Launchbox (make sure it is closed or it will not work) and the go to your \Launchbox\Data\Playlist folder and delete the .xml files for those playlists. Then when you reopen Launchbox it should be gone.

You are all sorted that's all that matters!

Is the choose application window try changing the file type box to All Files (*.*) and see if that helps.

@Mr. RetroLust I appreciate the compliment and the offer for advice. I used making the marquees as my practice to start learning more. I have yet to use filters too much, but I will definitely start tinkering with those more.

Nice! Well I am glad someone is doing them. I made some of my own but I am entry level skilled in Photoshop. I like how you have the glow reflecting the different colors in the logos.

Yes it will work. I have cabinet support and am using PBFX3 as well as cabinet support in PBFX2. Once you have you code in PBFX3 if you follow these steps Launchbox will run the table directly. The steps say to point to the steam.exe and not the pinballfx3.exe but I have been able to get it to work with either.

You could place this AHK script in the AutoHotKey tab of the edit emulator screen for Pinball FX in Launchbox. Universal close emulator with the Escape key: $Esc:: { Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}} }

@Mr. RetroLust These are really nice! I especially like the night view.

You could place this AHK script in the AutoHotKey tab of the edit emulator screen of Launchbox. Go to tools/manage emulators and then edit your Dolphin emulator setup.

Yeah those are clones. I would recommend as well what @DOS76 mentioned.
