I tried a lot of solution to solved this problem with windows games. What a lost of time and UCR was the best, but not perfect. I have an Ipac UIO with 2XU360. I don't want to waist more time so I did that. I have now 2 Xbox 360 joypads and it seem's working well. I will do more test in the next week's.

Have you used Winipac to setup every buttons and joystick before?

I have the same setup and all is working. What's the PB exactly?

http://datomatic.no-intro.org http://redump.org/downloads/ Is it what you are looking for?

I won't do the promotion of any software for this kind of games for various reasons and I'm not so experienced about them. I would be too interested to see some tutorials about how to use them in Launchbox. I think it's sensible because some of those games are still in operation. Am I wrong?

...and sega Triforce, SegaEuropa-R, Sega RingEdge, Sega RingWide, Sega RingEdge 2... You could find a lot of information about arcade emulation Here

@Robin55, as usual great job mate! My Launchbox is full of your work

Thanks, it worked!

@Robin55, as always you did a very good job. Thank you!

Hi, https://www.screenscraper.fr have a lot of media's we don't have in the LB and Emumovies database. Is anyone ok to make a plugin? Here the informations for the API: https://www.screenscraper.fr/webapi.php I can help to translate if needed.

I found the solution to use only one Mame for the AES and MVS mode if you have organized them in LB in 2 different systems. Add a line for your AES system in the emulator config window and pass additional parameters (see the uploaded image). The Unibios settings are keep in the Mame nvram directory. Create another nvram directory in Mame for the AES system only and open each game. It will create a new nvram for each game. It's possible to copy a nvram from a game and replace the nvram of the other games.

It seems I need to clone my Mame because I have the ROMs cloned and I have 2 different systems: AES and MVS. I can't figure how-to use only 1 Mame to do that.

Very good information, thanks! Should I make a clone of my Mame to be able to play in AES or MVS mode?

Thanks Lordmonkus. Can I play in AES mode with Mame or do I need to use Retroarch with the final burn core?

Hi guys, I have a Mame rom fullset and I'm wondering if I can play them in AES mode (console) thanks to Unibios? Thanks!

Try Screenscraper.

My bad, it was working. I created individuals settings file for some games without the hlsl settings. I deleted these files and no problemo. Thanks for the help and your hlsl settings

I change the raster.ini file but it's same as before. Do I need to specify somewhere that I want to use this preset?

Thanks a lot Lordmonkus! I used this thread because you talked about you HSLS settings in it ?

Guys, I'm trying to change my hlsl settings but Mame doesn't seem to use them. For example I want my corners rounded but when I play the corners are square! Below is my mame.ini settings I'm using with mame 0.200 no nag.

Good to know @Lordmonkus, thanks! If you don't know it yet, Dungeon Master is one of the best Atari ST games. I played it a lot when I was a child.

@harryoke, I tried to configure Retroarch following what you said but no luck. I'm able to play with the Hatari standalone version so it's not a problem with the bios. Do we need need to configure the other paths in the hatari.cfg? Is it better to use Retroarch or the standalone version with Launchbox? Thanks

Thanks @madk9, I like them a lot. Any chance you could add Captain Commando please? Ganbare! Marine Kun and Pokonyan! Balloon are missing too but I don't any flyer exist. Thanks

Anyone?
