@fyrenthenimarHere you go:

Hmm..stumped really since (in theory) shouldn't need to mess with any firewalls and such. Have you tried the EMU Movies Sync utility just to see if it will connect or it is something local to your computer that is getting blocked? FTP routes separately for EMU Movies. https://emumovies.com/files/file/321-emumovies-sync/ Also you are using the EMU web login in LB not your FTP login, correct?

@itssevere here are the IREM hardware logos.

@itssevere Here are the rest Midway, SNK, Konami, and MSX Hardware Logos

@witherzombie222 Here are the logos requested from the other thread: This one with Japanese series title at top. Versions with old and new logo.

No issues with EmuMovies in LB here. I would reenter your PW and username as a double check since that is response will give if they are incorrect. I also assume you don't have free version of LB?

Great tool, glad you have had time to update it and add features. One thing I notice with naming is that matching for games with "colon" in them that use a dash as a placeholder for reserved characters in file names will not match in AAM but do in LB. So for example: Image Name: Ultima IV - Quest of the Avatar.png LB Matches Game as: Ultima IV: Quest of the Avatar AMM: Doesn't match, shows as missing. AAM and LB match this: Ultima IV_ Quest of the Avatar.png Another naming pattern difference is how pinball media is usually named since typically sourced outside LB database. So for example: Image Name: Attack from Mars (Bally 1995).png LB Matches: Attack from Mars LB ignores anything in media brackets or parenthesis for match. AAM doesn't match, shows as missing Particularly for pinball media, the manufacturer and year in parenthesis format is typical. Although LB method isn't 100% either since there are few pinball tables with same name but different year and manufacturer so then LB sees that media as the same table entry. Anyway, not super critical but wanted to let you know.

Interest here as well. I use Unified Refried as well and have been holding back on any getting crazy with playlists simply because I didn't have the time to create the videos to merry it up with the theme.

@witherzombie222 If they are silver rings, then I will take crack at them likely this weekend and post them/tag you in the thread Retro808 mentioned above. There are a variety of NEC ones done recently but don't recall on that specific one.

A google image search with the name you wanted and "logo" or "png" quickly gets you these. The NEC logo is on this site.

As long as the title field is only area altered (which should only be one instance), the IDs and paths remain same then LB keeps maintains linkages. I did make backup of XML just in case. Every other emulator you can put whatever in title, it is just the autofill feature is counteracting for RA.

Here you go, easier than a zillion Taito hardware rings

That is one of the few LB likes to pre-fill things in. Only way I have seen it be something different if name is modified from just Retroarch (i.e., RetroArch1). The other way to do it is to go into the ..LaunchBox\Data\Emulators.xml Then search for string under the Emulators listings: <Title>Retroarch</Title> Then edit the Title to be what you want. When reopen LB it will have whatever you edit here including "RetroArch" if that is what you want.

Glad you got it worked out. I am reverse in that have always used ROM importer or currently the fullset importer tool once it was added as feature. I only use the drag and drop for non-MAME. But as long as you get the MAME import window at some point for whatever method it should work. MAME is unique in that you want LB to look to the MAME.XML file in the metadata folder during import so things are added correctly.

I would try importing via menu Tools, Import, Rome Files method or drag and drop of zip file into LB window and see if that works. That should bring up the MAME import selection window at the end. Also, LB won't indicate if it didn't import because it is already there. You verify by checking the box to override importing of duplicates.

Yes, but the game has a region assigned as Japan in your Edit screen but then in priorities you don’t have Japan checked at all. If want all the art then remove the the region in the game edit box or if want Japan art then leave as is in edit box bit also check Japan in region priority.

I am sure flatuswalrus will lend insight for a RA default install with ROMs in RA directory as far as folder structure. I do recall the duplicate named folders (one is used to tell RA which software list needed) under ROMs. Wait for flatuswalrus to show his setup, if you want to keep ROMs in RA directory. In my case, I use the normal MAME structure outside RA for all ROMs. I wanted to be able to use normal MAME and RA where desired without duplicate/moving ROMs. For the ROMs outside RA folder structure method this is what I did. In MAME RA under Options check on the "Enable Softlists" , "Boot from CLI", and "MAME INI Paths". Then make sure your: ...\Retroarch\system\mame\ini points to the location of your MAME roms since not using the default where RA expects ROMs to be. In my case, I have this pointing to my existing normal MAME directory for the MAME.ini in the RA system folder: rompath G:\Emulators\MAME\roms;G:\Emulators\MAME\roms_chds;G:\Emulators\MAME\software;G:\Emulators\MAME\software_chds For either method, you MUST have in the Retroarch\system\mame directory are the INI files, the HASH files, and samples. Although the RA Mame INI files has paths to these, changing the INI path for them doesn't work and RA ignores them (basically only ROMs can exist outside RA). With the above setup and the second instance of RA, then the normal MAME structure is used with MAME\ROMs and MAME\software folders. Thus it looks into the MAME\software\advision directory for games and the bios files under the MAME\ROMS folders. Using this method you do have to have the second instance of RA as noted in prior post since quotes must be turned off to launch.

You could can set the Daphne platform (and any other) to only be a parent of Arcade (or whatever name you called that category, some use MAME). All the child games will then show up under that parent regardless of platform.

@FuriousPigAll of the RA setups are similar for software (former MESS) MAME games. Assuming you have MAME working in RA you then setup a separate instance of RA from that used for Arcade and other consoles. The reason is that for software list MAME games you need to have the "Don't Use Quotes" check box checked. In my case I called it "Retroarch_Mess" (what you name it doesn't matter). "advision -cart \"%romfile%\""

Just a guess looking at the error, but looks like a permission and/or potential issue with a folder LB is trying to access (assume you have LB on portable/remote drive?). It appears to be the Images folder. Might try renaming the ...:\LaunchBox\Images folder to "Images-Test" or something similar (so don't lose your image info) and see if LB launches. If does, then work backwards to replace image information to find the problem directory. Again, complete guess but that is where I would start based on that error. If doesn't work, then rename back to Images and see if C-Beats or Jason have any ideas.

@itssevere Okay, here are the Taito logos with all the ones on your list. The Non-Taito will get to likely not until next weekend. These are relatively simple design. There are so many Taito boards that will take a lot of time to find the appropriate character art. If someone wants to gather send my way and will see what can incorporate. In mean time, these logo/text versions should tide folks over. I threw in some additional Taito hardware boards beyond what you had in the list since easier to do now. Since there are so many I have zipped them and attached to this post. There are 41 logos in total and a few are included here so people can see what is in zip without downloading. The list of logos in the zip: Taito 40-0 Hardware.png Taito 68000 Based Hardware.png Taito 68020 Based Hardware.png Taito 8080 Based Hardware.png Taito Air System Hardware.png Taito Arkanoid Hardware.png Taito B System Hardware.png Taito Birdie King Hardware.png Taito Bonze Adventure Hardware.png Taito Buggy Challenge Hardware.png Taito Classics 2 Hardware.png Taito Cycle Mahbou Hardware.png Taito Darius 2 Twin Screen Hardware.png Taito F1 System Hardware.png Taito F2 System Hardware.png Taito F3 Package System Hardware.png Taito F3 System Hardware.png Taito FX-1A System Hardware.png Taito FX-1B System Hardware.png Taito G-Net Hardware - ALT1.png Taito G-Net Hardware.png Taito Gyrodine Hardware.png Taito H System Hardware.png Taito L System Hardware.png Taito LG System Hardware.png Taito Ninja Warriors Hardware.png Taito Nunchacken Hardware.png Taito NY Captor Hardware.png Taito O System Hardware.png Taito Operation Wolf 3 Hardware.png Taito PPC JC System Type-C Hardware.png Taito QIX Hardware.png Taito Safari Hardware.png Taito Super QIX Hardware.png Taito System SJ Hardware.png Taito The Pit Hardware.png Taito Top Speed Hardware.png Taito Wolf System Hardware.png Taito X System Hardware.png Taito Z System Hardware.png Taito z80 Based Hardware.png There are logos with more graphical backgrounds located in this thread: Also the Safari and G-Net logos are credit to Seaview59 in the above thread.

@BluSonik The remainder of the Hacks Logos.

@BluSonikHere is last of these.

@corleone got busy at work but here are what you requested in style with bar on bottom and without. There were few you didn't ask for since got mixed up with another request but posted anyway.

Here are a couple to choose from:
