Hey guys, I am cleaning up the last few issues I have with my arcade cab and these two emu's have been giving me some issues, hoping someone on here has some fixes or can point me in the right direction. ScummVM - requires Alt+F4 to exit emu. Any way to change this to exit? Can an AHK send ALT+F4 when pressing ESC for this emu? Daphne - when exiting, the app hangs for like 30 seconds, video is frozen but I can still hear audio running. after that 30 seconds, i am back to LB. Running games directly thru Daphne Loader, games ext cleanly as expected. Thanks all!

badges, we don’t need be stinking badges! thanks man! that is exactly what i was looking for!!

yeah i knew i could do that. is there a way to see ONLY broken games? i am adding all teknoparrot parrot games, listing them as not working. it would be great to just pull up that list if games i need to work on to get them to play, promote them to working, my non working list i’m viewing gets shorter and shorter. just a thought, thanks!

hi all, im on the long haul to set up teknoparrot games that will run on my arcade cab’s limited resolution. is it possible to tag a game as non working and have a small splash come up if someone selects a non working game (“this game is not working, please select another”), something along this lines. thanks!

awesome, thank you guys!

hi guys, i have a big fish game group, no emulator, just imported in a bunch of exe’s. id like to set up a AHK for all of the games to have ‘n’ send a left mouse click. i can do this on a per emulator basis easily but how about on a per game (since it’s not using an emulator). any help is appreciated.

i had everything working and then mame stopped working. so i deleted arcade all together and am trying to reimport a full mame set. it gets to the parsing and then gives me: data at the root level is invalid. line 5123864, position 1 i am using a real version of mame64, version 217. i even deleted all of my mame ini's thinking there might be some conflict so this is basically a new install of mame. i did run mame first to generate the cfg's and ini's. then i try the full import and i get the above. please help!

tgg he ann’s man, i’ll give it a try. curious, is that system wide setting? meaning, anything i try to run outside the set resolution (1024x768), the gpu will try to either up or downscale? also i’m assuming that’s if a program tries to run full screen or is that if something tries to run windowed? sorry for all the questions, this is all really new to me. so very much appreciate the guidance!

i’m so lost with scaling. can anyone hell with a quick walk thru? is it even possible what is like to do? happy to pay you for your time

oh your kidding me! can’t wait to get home and give this a try!

hi all, im slowly trying to add teknoparrot parrot to my arcade machine. anyone know of a list of games and what resolution they run at or which games can have their resolution modified? i ask because my arcade screen will only go to 1024x768 and i don’t want to waste time trying to get games to run that just won’t on my screen. thanks!

this should be an easy one... i'm looking to send either the right alt or right control with a key press. let's say right control with the 'n' key and right alt with the 'o' key. can someone help? thanks all!

thanks for this guys. followed all instructions and was able to import and start mad dog and mad dog 2 (import the tx files). But, it won't see or let me import any other txt file, this is weird! any thoughts? other weirdness, same thing happens in daphne games... when i exit, the video freezes, the audio keeps playing and about 20-30 seconds later, the game finally exits.

i just rtried from scratch. deleted my phoenix folder, downloaded again, attached the bios, attached all the carts, started each cart. then i ran the poauncher to do the back up, so far so good. dtarting the launcher in LB, same error! attached is my launcher xml, it looks right to me... _Phoenix_Rom_Launcher.xml

would you mind postring your phoenix rom launcher xml?

thanks man, i just tried. deleted all my xml'x. launch phoenix, brand new no roms or bios in the list. I attached the jab bios and added then started two different roms, battle sphere and tempest, both launched just fine. i then ran phoenix rom launcher, it found two jag roms and asked for me to make a back up, which i did, then exited. now in LB, i select tempest, tell it to use phoenix rom launcher and i get this: line 2197 (file "s:\emulators\ph-win64\_phoenix_rom_launcher.exe"): error: variable used without being declared man i'm lost...

yeah i’ve tried that tut to no evail. im switching to retro right now but for the jag core, just isn’t as good, bad crackly audio in places, etc. and battle sphere plays on phoenix...

so frustrated, let's see if cold hard cash can solve my problem i have tried every phoenix launcher on these boards and can't for the life of me figure out why I can't get it to run correctly. i know my phoenix is set up correctly, it launches just fine from rocket launcher. if someone can get me up and running with phoenix on the jag and 3DO, i got $50 with your name on it! Thanks!

hi all, still a bit new with LB. I'm almost all set, just trying to iron out my marquee. Arcade games are fine, but console games are showing the box art. i'd prefer if for consoles the banner or clear logo was shown. is there anywhere in an xml file that I can tell LB to change the marquee art location? would be great if you could select primary, secondary and tertiary marquee locations by platform! thanks all!

hi all, thanks to all that have gotten me this far, i can’t believe i waited so long to move to LB, this app is awesome! here are the final few things i’m struggling with, if anyone can help i’d greatly appreciate it. 1. pause - the last major thing i need to do. is there a list of pause friendly emulators? i know there are a few that don’t cooperate... 2. scummvm - i’m using a launcher. i have an “escape sends alt-f4” script set up for the emu (i know the script works because it works on others) but it will not quit the emu. if i hit directly alt-f4, the emu quits. i may add to this list once i get home thank you everyone!

hi all, apologies this is probably super noob! i can’t find any option to allow LB/BB to scroll when holding stick (mapped to arrow keys). but now that just tested, keyboard works as expected, mapped key press to stick does not. using joytokey if anyone has any ideas. thanks!!

25 pages in this thread, my apologies if these answers are in there. looking for a couple of things if anyone can help: 1. looking to send left and/or right mouse clicks with the push of a button, let’s say ‘N’ and/or ‘A’ for left click, ‘B’ and/or ‘S’ or right click 2. send one key when pressing another, e.g. send ‘P’ when pressing ‘H’ 3. i’m using a launcher app to launch ScummVM. i have tried plenty of exit scripts to send alt-f4 when pressing ESC, nothing seems to work. any thoughts? thanks everyone!!

can i buy you a pint over paypal? thank you, really! under hyperspin (and EDS driving the marquee), they had some really cool looking platform images I was using as marquees. this was top level, scrolling thru platforms. here is a sample... i just like the uniformed look of all of them. in LB, once i drill into the platform, i love the marquee that was designed, it's just that top level. the designs that are there are great but they won't fit my marquee screen at all

one final marquee question if i may... if i wanted to point to another folder for marquees, where could i edit that?

oh i just saw that you posted. winner winner chicken dinner! worked like a charm. thanks so much man!
