    So I reached out to the LaunchBox team and they were able to give me the last version of LaunchBox setup file that worked with Archive Cache Manager. So I guess I'll continue to use this old version until either @fraganator comes back, or until LaunchBox adds a similar feature.
  2. Clutz450
    The original code or the code that I posted. Because I believe the guy who made the changes for me already did all the upgrades.
  3. Clutz450
    If you are talking about the build that i posted, I hope i was clear in stating that it doesn't work. I don't know how to code, but I did get in touch with someone who did, but unfortunately knows nothing about LaunchBox. He did the best he could to update everything as far as he could, and what I posted was for someone else to hopefully take it the rest of the way. Now with that said, it's possible that what he changed wasn't correct either. Ultimately, what we need is for @fraganator to come back and create a fix. But in the meantime, if anyone is willing to try and help, we can try and work together to do this ourselves.

    Great FAQ. Regarding the Downgrading section of your FAQ, I just want to point out that this only works if you have updated to the version you want to downgrade to from within LaunchBox. I started on version 13.18 and deleted the installation file after it was installed. After I updated to 13.19, I discovered that one of my plugins doesn't work anymore and I cannot downgrade because I don't have anything in my Updates folder. I've already been instructed to email support about getting the last version emailed to me, but just wanted to mention this specific scenario so you can maybe add it to your FAQ. Or maybe as a feature request, give people the ability to download previous versions from within LaunchBox itself. Thanks.

    First off, I know nothing about how to code. But I found someone who was willing to give this a shot, even though he knows nothing about LaunchBox or this Plugin. Here is what he did so far: Even with all that, the plugin is failing with a 7-zip error when I try to launch a game. If anyone that has more knowledge in this would be willing to take a look at what changes were made so far and help us take it the rest of the way, it would be much appreciated. The source code and my latest error log are attached. Thank you. archive-cache-manager.7z Debug 2025-02-15 08-21-55 PM.log

    I've been getting help from someone who knows what they are doing. I think we are very close.

    I just tried your version, but the Archive Cache Manager option doesn't show up under Tools anymore. That's basically all you really need to do to test it is make sure that the option returns. Check out the very first post and you should see what it's supposed to do. Thanks for trying to fix this for us.

    I appreciate your attempts to fix this. I know it still works, but I am still building my library and setting up new platforms so I kinda need that settings menu. I did reach out to support via email to see if they can give me the previous version install file for now so I'm just waiting for that. Unfortunately, I nuked my entire setup and started over from scratch so I don't have the last install file sitting in my updates folder.
  10. Clutz450
    The new update just went live. I accidentally updated and now I'm having the same issue as you. @fraganator If you happen to still be around, would you mind looking into this and updating your plugin? Thank you so much.
  11. Clutz450
    That sounds great. I was planning on trying to set up PS3 later this week. I will definitely give this a try. Thanks.
  12. Clutz450
    Because they are stored on my NAS and I would like them on my local hard drive when I play them. I did figure it out though. When I set up the Dolphin emulator, I left the box to extract roms before launching unchecked (because my GameCube games weren't zipped). However, Archive Cache Manager only works if that box is checked. I've i checked it, everything was working fine.
  13. Clutz450
    So with the pull request your made and it being merged in, does that mean that the RetroAchievemwnt badges should be showing up for GameCube games in .rvz format? Because i just imported all my GameCube games and none of them show as having RetroAchievements. Thanks.
  14. Clutz450
    Does anyone have any experience with using Archive Cache Manager Plugin with GameCube games? The plugin seems to work great for the games that I have zipped. My GameCube games are in .rvz format and I did copy the file "DolphinTool.exe" to the "Extractors" folder like the instructions said. But no matter what I do, I can't get it to copy my game to the cache folder. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Thank you for your reply. I'll give GIMP a try. Sounds simple enough. Do you happen to be involved with maintaining the database? I personally like the idea of submitting the inside box covers just for the potential that one day things may change and we will have fully reconstructed boxes that we can open. I can kind of compare it to how we have all these front and back scans of NES, SNES, etc boxes, but no one really thought to scan the sides. Now we have all these reconstructed 3D box arts that don't 100% match how they originally looked because some kind of template was used to create them. So my thought was that even if LaunchBox can't use them right now, maybe we could make a more appropriate category to upload them to just so they can sit there until needed. But aside from that, I will keep these kinds of scans to myself for now until I find a better place to upload them. Thanks again for your help, and hopefully soon I will have the rest of my images uploaded to the database.

    Sorry to revive such an old post but I am having the same issue. LaunchBox scanned and is showing the RetroAchievements badge for all my cartridge based games. I just imported my Playstation games and did a scan in LaunchBox, but none of them matched. I verified all my games against the Playstation Dat from Redump using RomVault and they are all zipped using torrentzip. Do you have any updates on this? Thanks.
