It is the InputBindgins.xaml you want to deal with. You can restore an old one if you still have backups in your \Backups folder or delete the InputBindings.xaml in the \Data folder and that will reset all binding to stock. Then you can use the keyboard to move around and get to the options to rebind.

Not from within LB metadata fields or really any preset way from within LB. In order to do so within LB you would have to find those games and tag them somehow, such as using a Custom Field and then be able to filter that custom field or generate a playlist from that custom field.

@JohnnyK Is this without the FLV videos? If so, it would be interesting to see a test with them back in.

LB can be placed on any drive. It does not matter about the game either as all you need to do is tell LB where to find the game.

No. What is the reason you want to downgrade?

It is possible. It is just something that you would need to code into a theme to show what you want. There are no settings to pick and choose. I currently have one marquee showing a game marquee image, control mapping image, and the game metadata notes. There is a lot that can be done, but it has to be done in code for a theme.

You cannot delete them. LB will always generate them to ensure the proper folder are there if you ever add images manually.

Agree. 4.2 much better. Now it has that Colorful feel.

Enjoy seeing all the mock-ups and glad to see some new things coming to a great theme. I typically am not vocal a lot on theme looks, but as a user who prefers Text view show up before I launch a game, I have to say Text Game v4 is my least favorite. Way too much white makes it miss out on that "colorful" feel of the Colorful theme. v3 would be a good choice.

It has been advised since the addition of Startup Themes that some emulators, game .exe, and random launchers may have issues. I have several TTX games in my install and Startups work fine. These are only TTX games that can run in TeknoParrot though. How are you running your TTX games? If you are using something like TeknoParrot you may need adjust a setting (in Manage Emulators if you edit the emulator you are using there is a Startup tab - see example pic below) for the Startup specifically for the emulator you are using or turn Startup themes off for those games.

This type of post is not helpful either. It lacks any form of help and makes assumptions. So let's all take this as the warning and leave well enough alone. Anything further thread will be locked and warning/possible temporary bans given.

Yep. Even roms can be located where ever you want them as long as you tell LB where to find them. Also, since you are new...Before you import anything into LB, meaning games and emulators, set up the emulator and the controls first inside the emulator. Then test your rom files inside the emulator to be sure you games and controls work. Once you set up and confirmed that, then add the emulator to LB and import the roms. This ensure that if for some reason the games do not work when launched inside LB we can eliminate it being an emulator or bad rom issue. One less thing for us to troubleshoot.

You are not really embedding RA inside LB by putting it in an emulator folder inside LB folder structure. LB does not care where you put is as long as you tell it where it is. ETA's recomendation is simply to keep everything inside the LB folder. This makes it easier to move the entire build if needed. Plus just keeps things neat and tidy. LB sees it because when you set up the emulator in LB you tell it the path to the emulator's .exe.

Everything you want to do is possible by editing the code of the theme. Are you sure that image is of Critical Zone v2? It has been a while since I used that theme, but it looks like a different theme. I could be wrong. The video can be made bigger as well as the text info box, but you may have to adjust grid size depending on how the video/text view was coded. It might be constrained in a grid that is set to a certain size. Font size can be changed. It may be bound to a FontSize. If it is then it is as easy as changing the size. It does all depend on how they were coded as there are several ways the size of data or media can be set in the code.

That rom name is not correct. Mame roms are named a specific way and cannot be changed. Your image shows you are trying to launch 720-01.zip. This is why LB cannot get mame to run the game. I am going to guess you had LB move the roms when you imported them. If that rom is already in the folder LB moves it to then LB will rename the file with a -01. You need to point LB to the 720.zip rom file. I would check the names of some other games as well see if that is the same issue.

>Tools>Manage Emulators and Edit your Retroarch. Uncheck the "Default Emulator" in the Associated Platforms tab in the line with Arcade. By having that checked you are telling LB to use RA as the default emulator for your Arcade platform, but you have all the games linked to standalone Mame.

Right click and edit a game. In the emulation section see if RA or Mame is listed. If Mame is listed then that game is set to launch with Mame and not RA which is why you are getting the set as default prompt.

The fact that you have Arcade listed in the Associated Platforms tab and have it set to the Mame core with the Default box checked is why LB is asking you do you want to set RA as default emulator. It is not asking about the core. It is just asking do you want to set RA as default emulator for Arcade. This typically happens when you have games using a different emulator in that platform. Is your Arcade platform using Retroach Mame or is it using standalone Mame? Check some actual games. Right click some games and choose edit. In the emulation see if it is linked to RA or standalone Mame.

You can click "No" and it will not mess anything up. With that prompt that means somehow in your Associated Platforms tab Arcade is listed and is being linked to that core. Edit your Retroarch in LB and see what is listed in the Associated Platforms tab. Make sure there is no Arcade platform referenced and being linked to that core. Sharing a pic of the Associated Platforms tab might help us to see if we can spot anything odd.

Did you put the themes in the correct folder and unzip the file that was downloaded? The theme needs to be unzipped and placed in the \Launchbox\LBThemes folder.

Good. That is typically one area for an error. Looks like you said the games works fine when ran directly in Mame without using LB/BB (well that's a loose interpretation of what you describe doing). This typically means a setting issue in LB. Go back into Manage emulators and edit Mame again. Share the pics below. 1. Pic of the Details Tab. 2. Pic of Associated Platforms tab. Edit a Mame in game in LB (right click and edit on a game) and show: 1. Pic of Launching tab 2. Pic of Emulation tab.

Those are not custom themes. You are using the "Default" LB theme. You are talking about your background image. The Default theme blurs the background image. These are Launchbox custom themes. To reduce the blur in LB go to >Tools>Options. Then in the >Visuals>Backgrounds tab lower the Background Blur.

A pic of what you see as I asked would be helpful.

What version Mame are you using? If you edit Mame in LB (>Tools>Manage Emulators and edit Mame...), in the Associated platforms tab for Mame do you have your arcade platform name listed?

Can you share a pics of what you see? Not sure what theme you are mentioning below. Do you mean Neon Deluxe Arcade? Does the Default LB theme look correct?
