Several thoughts: Did you do a refresh of image cache? Also did you do a right-click and unblock of the zip files? Where did you have your video files? Doesn't look like it is picking them up.

Only thing else I can think of to check would be to see if in BigBox you have something mapped in the keyboard mappings under Options for the "Escape" key. It shouldn't matter (in theory) but doesn't hurt to check. Beyond that not sure other than trying to redownload most current LB and installing again in case something got corrupted.

What you are seeing is by design. The LB database will have one entry and associated alternate names for other regions. So from LB DB view it is a duplicate entry and will not import because it sees it as duplicate. The check box to allow duplicates allows other regions to be imported. You could also use the Additional Apps tab and add in the other games similar to what Mame import tool does. However that is not ideal if you want to see media/art for both versions of the game.

Assume you are not using a Retroarch Dolphin core but Dolphin directly. Would check you have the "-b" option in command line parameters which will close Dolphin when exiting a game. The other would be to check the Autohotkey Script tab and make sure you don't have something in there that is causing a conflict.

EmuMovies and Hyperspin sites have various artwork packs with media, typically by the type (e.g., Atari 2600 2D Covers). Some packs are better/more complete than others and some will require membership (i.e., to download via FTP from EMUMovies). Using packs however requires you to have artwork names that match the naming convention of your ROMs so you will have to take that into consideration.

Ahh, makes sense. I didn't think to look for PC name. Easy enough fix. I have gone back and forth on how to name modern Windows games grouping so can see how that one is problematic. Thanks again.

@RetroHumanoidThanks for the reply. Let me do some troubleshooting. I can say with 100% surety that I didn't have any old refried files/folders for V1 when did V2. But could be an errant plugin as an issue (outside of Refried theme). So will play with that. On the PSP, understand what saying since did see the dual named borders as well. I will give whirl with clean install now that I know my PlayStation titles in LB are all consistent and see what happens. On another note, in the Queso addon under "_Computers" image folder I don't see any custom images for "Windows" anymore like in older plugin. There are the MS-DOS, and Windows 3.1x folders. Is that by design? Cheers.

@RetroHumanoidAlso seeing some inconsistencies in the Queso Fresco Addon with Sony PlayStation Portable. In addon the image directory is referenced as Sony PSP but in main theme it Sony PlayStation Portable. So doesn't pull up the addon border (pulls the vanilla version). When went through and renamed all to Sony PlayStation Portable in the folders and XAML file references worked fine. Lastly, the Sony PlayStation (PS1 to PS4) name references have mixture of lower and uppercase in the "S" (PS4 and PS3 are upper, and others lower). I didn't think it would matter but my PS3 name in LB was lowercase and wouldn't pull the addon border until renamed to match the theme name which was with upper case "S". The PS3 addon border came up okay then after that. Although oddly, didn't seem to be issue with PS2 and PS1, I went and renamed all PS references with uppercase (i.e., Sony PlayStation) so everything was same. Could just be me but maybe something to look at on next revision pass. Thanks again for the work. Edit: I also see that the theme is generating empty directories in the Themes folder. They are empty except for a "plugin" directory which has no files. I had completely started from scratch with V2 so these folders were not there prior. They seem to generate by platform when launching BB and scrolling /selecting a platform.

@RetroHumanoid Awesome theme and a massive amount of detail/work, particularly with the new update working with the revised theme system so soon out of the gate. I noticed as I was cruising around all the files after install that the Queso Fresco Addon for Microsoft Windows 3.1.X image directory has a typo in folder name (Microsot). See below screenshot: I don't have any games (yet) in this category so cannot say it impacted my setup. The XAML file references appear to be correct titles.

@Gamer There is the Assassins Creed one shown above so assume that works. The Resident Evil was done prior in this thread by another but attached below.

@weller96c here are a few of the classic logos you wanted. On the SHMUPs, there is a Dreamcast logo on prior page although uses Shoot-em Ups in title. Some others around mid point of thread. Logos with SHMUPS will likely be a bit. @cleverest these two were already done by Dragon57 for you on Page 31. Here is the two others you wanted. Marvel GraphicAudio DC GraphicAudio

Try making sure all references use lair2 . Make a dupe of framefile and call it lair2.txt and make sure all references in batch including name of batch file is lair2. The Launchbox Daphne log shows it’s trying to find the video files not in Lair2 directory but dl2-framefile directory which doesn’t exist. The original batch file won’t work because the %1 means it is looking for lair2 throughout.

You can add an extension. I did when connected to big screen TV and it was about another 4 or 5 feet long extension. It is a normal USB 2.0 connector. At least the Mayflash, it did have a "two button" and "one button" version but the "one button" was prior to 2015ish so not likely to encounter now. The difference was that the second button allows to turn off the bar IR.

I had some DB issues earlier where the LB DB kept reverting to an older version every time I exited and came back to LB. See this thread below but in my case clearing out Windows TMP/TEMP files and clearing the LB Cache seemed to address.

Mine is ~4.5 feet long. So not very long unless your hub is close to your monitor. Not sure on your question of "best to use". I use the Mayflash and it seems to work okay but then I haven't used a whole lot http://www.mayflash.com/Products/NINTENDOWiiU/W010.html

DL2 works so likely an issue with the framefile. Daphne is a pain with names and the first line inside the framefile text file must match the path to where VLDP files are located (it can be relative so may see things like a period or double period). Look at the Daphne_Log.txt file in the Daphne directory. It will usually give you a good idea of the issue since most times it will show something indicating that it cannot find a ROM and/or VLDP directory. I have attached a file I generated when ran and if look at Line 27 will see where finds ROM, then parses VLDP files via the framefile which it gives path, and off it goes. Most times if problem with framefile then you will see it gag there with an error that cannot find the VLDP files or will see a wonky path noted in the ROMs. Also, the "command line" line near top of the Daphne_Log.txt file shows you what is being used to try and launch the game. You said you have couple that work so would run those, exit, then make copy of the log and rerun again with Lair 2. You can then see what is different. You can do tests outside LB but trying that command line in a CMD window. Again, more than likely the first line of the framefile is potentially wrong so would look at the Lair 2 framefile first line and compare to what you have with the framefile that is working. The name of the framefile also looks suspicious (mine is lair2.txt for example). Although doesn't have to be same name, it does have to match throughout the references in your command line, etc. Also see this thread where had similar questions. daphne_log.txt

Yes, default file in cfg directory to read only will lock down the changing of controller IDs. Just have to remember to make write able if wanting to do changes. I used this method initially and didn’t see any issues. The others in the directory are the specific settings for games.

Cool. Options are good. I would say about half of those you had were ones wanted to add in the playlists for my collection. I have just started with collections playlists and am plunking away with logos where seem to be missing. Trying not to get too carried away though! Will not be messing with this for a couple weeks after the weekend since will be gone. Glad you got your list.

Did this Ultima and C&C logos since haven't seen these yet.

Tekken versions I did for my collection (there is also another one in early part of this thread if want something different).

The genre ones: Some of those others are already in this thread (for example):

Note that the main logos and rings for these are taken from the LB themes (Redux). I believe the original logos were by Robin55 and LetstalkaboutDune. Also the rings were from PSD platform templates in the Download section.

here are two with all games background and simple game logo on top if that works.
