Is Pack 3 available yet?  I see the link on first post still has old date.

 

Thanks

Loving the look with HyperspaceMadness’s Reflective Shader. I am using them for the consoles now and it's another level.

I downloaded the first page pack and looked on HyperspaceMadness’s Reflective Shader forum post plus Duimons.

Are yours available anywhere? as I couldn't find them.

 

Thanks

Supported games are read from the LaunchBox\ThirdParty\hi2txt\hi2txt.zip file. If you update the version of hi2txt in this folder with a new version, then the new games that are supported in that version will be marked as supported in LaunchBox.

Unfortunately there's no way to determine whether those non-arcade MAME games are arcade or not, unless we hardcode a platform name, and require that all MAME high scores games use a specific platform name (like Arcade or MAME). I thought about doing that, but then I'm afraid people with custom platform names will have issues. So for this release, at least, we'll leave that the way it is. I don't know how else to deal with that issue.

Totally understandable.

 

Only thought on it is - could it not be in a playlist like style whereby I could remove the "reference " to an entry rather than the entry itself.  Or maybe I could try myself as I have just seen the MAME Scores supported field in playlists

So Scratch that - I have made my own.  Just MAME High scores field set to true and platform set to Arcade.  Works Fine!

Will the MAME High Scores Supported Category be changed at all if new games appear that support High Score saving or is that as and when Launchbox gets updated.

 

Also on the topic of the pull down category.....

I do get quite a few non-mame arcade games in there

Alien Invaders: Plus - Magnavox Odyssey 2

Battlezone - Atari XEGS

Crystal Castles - Atari XEGS

The problem is that they ARE launched by MAME but for emulating the console or computer but equally they all have the same filename as the actual arcade rom.  I have removed one or two from the MAME high scores category but it removes them from the actual console/computer category.

 

Hope that explains it

[Reset MAME High Scores?]

Will there be anything we need to do our end to help facilitate this?

Namely deletion of any files/nvram/cfg?

What would be the easiest way in ensuring all dip switches are considered default?

 

Thanks

Sounds great.

Would be nice to have a level playing field.  And besides it's another excuse to pound some time in MAME again.

Honestly, It brings a fresh reason to play games on MAME again.

Mr. Retrolust

Just to say how greatly your work is appreciated.  I personally think your "lights out" style is of all the artwork I have trawled through, my number one choice.  It doesn't detract from the gameplay yet still shows off the cab assets (where available yeah ) and the cropped toggle is bang on too.

I have seen variants around with a tilted screen effect for some of the Donkey Kong and Pac-Man games - is this a Mame thing or Retroarch as I am on the Mame.exe route?  And what do you think of those styles?

Mainly to say thanks though
