    Amazing amount of work done. I had tried earlier doing this myself before finding your files, and it was frustrating, but now everything works perfectly. Thank you!
  1. I didn't take a snapshot because problem is no longer there. But the focus box is same as the white lines. After more investigation, it was an anomaly. If I rotated wheel and saved it, then come back in and rotate wheel back to 0, the lines went away. Sorry, I just didn't do enough troubleshooting, and I'm not able to reproduce it again.
  2. Update- Never mind. It does have something to do with background image. If I reduce opacity or don't use a background image, then lines go away. @y2guru I have what looks like a 1 or 2 pixel white outline around any wheel in wheel games view. At first I had a white background so I didn't notice. Now I see the outline no matter what size, position, or rotation with a dark background. As a test I created blank black background to make sure it wasn't my image interfering, and I still get the outline. Is there a way to prevent this, or am I doing something wrong? Thank you very much.
  3. Thank you. I've moved onto Beta release and don't have an issue anymore.
  4. Most people (not all) have Platform view when starting up. The problem with Attract Mode is that the Time Between Movements also applies to Platforms, not just games within those platforms. If you have longer game videos such as 30 seconds, then you have to view Platforms for that long too, which I don't believe most people would want. Possible Solution- - Allow shorter view time when Big Box switches between Platforms, while allowing longer time for view of games. I would really love Attract mode to scroll through all games in all Platforms without selecting All Games as the default view. This would give a far better chance for random games coming up especially for those that don't have 1000's of games. - All Games view could be a solution but it doesn't retain Remember Separate View For Each Platform. So my Arcade games show Arcade Marquee, but my SNES games show a box. In All Games view, it shows the Default View, so it makes viewing All Games look ugly. - Don't allow same Platform or Game to be shown twice in a row. I don't know how many times I see the same platform or game come up again after a spin. It's really uncanny. At least have logic of "if same as last spin add 1 (or 2)". Better logic would be to create random list each view change, and not allow duplicate. - And finally- Allow finer control of Time Between Movements. I spent about a bajillion hours creating custom videos of all my games at 30 seconds each. The issue is, I didn't account for the wheel spin time. So my videos start over for a few seconds before going to next game. Not a big deal, but I believe this could be an easy implementation. Thank you.
  5. I just wanted to add, that I'm having the same problem. I see when I exit, LaunchBox and LaunchBox Big Box are listed in background processes and I have to manually kill them in task manager.
  6. Thank you so much! I never thought to just start typing.
  7. I would prefer my game lists to have 1 player, 2 player cooperative, 2 player vs. I know default is single player, cooperative, and multiplayer, but several times I've had people over and they see the multiplayer tag and think it's online multiplayer. This would help simplify what I'm doing in the Community Theme Creator for my cab as it already has a "Play Mode" box that I can list what I've set for each game.
  8. Being very new to this, I wanted to add the Retro-Console-Startup with your theme, but not sure where to put it. Or is it already included with the main Retro Console Theme Anim V2 download? Thanks. I really like what you have done.
  9. That's exactly what I want. Although I would make the screens a little bigger for easier recognition.
  10. I know this is old, but thanks for the list.
  11. I would like to do this too. For same reason as I don't have right click ability in cab, nor do I want to right click and select a different version. I just want it listed separately. Even a duplicate option would be great and then just edit the name and which rom to launch.
  12. Fantastic tool. Thank you very much. I've had an amazingly hard time with LB getting media for very common games, and this solves it.
  13. Using LaunchBox Premium- I just tried doing media for Arcade, Gamecube, and SNES. Not a lot of titles, about 100 in all. Quite a few very popular titles just don't download media, especially front box art. I have a lifetime subscription to EmuMovies. Launchbox DB ID is correct on all roms (except BattleZone, which thinks it's Bradley Trainer) Now I have to right click- select edit- select download media on about 1/4 of all roms. Why? If the DB ID is correct and I can click on it and view all the media, why doesn't it download the media when running through wizard? Also, every time I go through metadata and media wizard, and select 'Yes, but do not replace any existing fields or media', I see quite a few titles just have their data removed!! Doesn't matter if I uncheck prioritize images over LaunchBox Games Database and Wikipedia. Running Windows 10 pro 64bit. No anti-virus software.
  14. Understood. Just a weird remark considering Asteroids is in the top 10 of all lists for top Arcade games and is probably the 3rd most well known arcade game behind pac-man and donkey-kong.
