  1. Pretty time consuming to do that to hundreds of games one by one. I guess no one has a real solution to this because I posted about this same issue the other day & got crickets on here. And I still can't load any of my NES or TG16 games in LB. Didn't even change directories, I just imported ONE Famicom rom & apparently that screwed everything up somehow
  2. I imported 1 Famicom rom because for some reason, Launchbox doesn't recognize them when I try to add them as NES (Which is not an issue within the emulator itself)....and after this I can no longer play any game in LB in my NES list OR Turbografx either without getting the same message I just don't get it, if someone can please help me with this I'd appreciate it
  3. Hey thanks alot! I was able to pull around 50 logos I still needed from that pack. That leaves me with like 70 or so I still need now, and currently about to go through an Amiga pack & some others since alot of the games I still need were on the Amiga other platforms Yeaa aside from briefly having a Tandy Color Computer 3 when I was a kid, I never got to experience any computer gaming rly until the mid 90's on PC. So all this is like a new world to me now & a good way for me to kill the boredom. The Amiga always seemed interesting too & I plan to get into it as well sometime in the future. I chose the ST first because I had an Atari 7800 & have strong nostalgia for that console..I was never really aware of the ST at the time & it's cool to see all these games I didn't know about that were out during the same era...& it turns out quite a few Atari arcade titles I used to dream would get a released for my 7800 actually did on the ST The Atari 8-bit line never really interested me though...and I recall seeing a TV commercial for the XE at the same time the 7800 was current too that didn't impress me. Meanwhile the much better ST was out as well & I had no idea
  4. Might there be any pack out there, with at least some of them? I have just started to get into the ST & it's games during this lockdown & installed a little over 100 roms. I wound up spending a TON of time searching around to find missing box art & floppy scans that Launchbox didn't add, and even then there were still quite a few a couldn't find anywhere. Clear logos, like I suspected are a different story. There were barely any that showed up on the wheel in Big Box. I know the ST defintely isn't the most popular system emulated, but would anyone possibly know of a source to find a few more? Alot of the titles seemed to be on Amiga, C64 & other consoles, so sure I could find SOME that way at least....
  5. Using Nestopia emulator on it's own loads everything with no problem, but seems on LB it only adds official NES cart roms & skips Famicom games or hacks Something I'm doing wrong in the settings maybe??
  6. Would like to try this but I don't see any "visuals" under options/
  7. I copied them all in that folder & still can't load any games
  8. Been trying some emulators for more systems lately due to the quarantine. So far I've tried TurboEngine & Retroarch to use them within LB With TurboEngine, trying to play a PC Engine CD-Rom game in fullscreen crashes with a "error switching to full screen mode" message. Also, it seems to never save the bios location & every time I reopen the emulator it's missing from the field & I have to set it again On Retroarch, trying to play a PC Engine CD-ROm game also crashes, and I cannot figure out where or how to set a bios file in the first place Would appreciate any help on this & thanks in advance
  9. I followed all steps in this link.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPWtIzYwU2k ...and can get it to load a game, but I cannot get past the title screen because once it comes up, the mouse no longer works. I'm able to move the pointer in the emulator itself, but as soon as a game starts, nothing happens. Tried plugging in my arcade stick in USB port & switched settings to joystick but doesn't seem to recognize anything on that at all Any help would be appreciated. I know this is probably a niche system too, and I've actually never played one myself but would like to see what I missed out on
  10. I recently bought a few games I had back in the day, mainly casino & card games off Ebay & ripped them all using IMGburn to .IMG files. I couldn't figure out how to add & play them in LB. All Ive done so far is installed the games on my HDD , mounted them w virtual clone drive & played them that way, but I have to keep ejecting & re-mounting to play the others. In LB, w Dosbox I have DOS games set up to always mount disc images when I select to play them, sure that'd be a similar way to do this with these games?? Also, a couple I can't get working at all. All games are around 2001-2004 , some from same series/publisher too but won't run. The install screen will come up but as soon as it looks like its finished installing, it shuts off. Clicking on the shortcut or exe for game, nothing even happens. I've set Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode for all of these games BTW
  11. I finally have got into DOSbox lately & love the convienence of using Launchbox for it. I mainly used LB/BB for arcade games & have went to great lengths organizing everything the way I wanted, but it was quite a while ago so was hoping to have someone refresh my memory on a few things as well as answer couple questions for me Pretty sure to set custom images as BB wheel art, I have to place them in the clearart folder. What about to have box art images as what you see when you select games in BB + image view in LB? I also wanted to use floppy disk scans to show somewhere in the background as well. How would I do that in settings & what folders should I put everything in. Also do the images have to be named the same filename as the .exe/.iso etc for LB to instantly recognize them after importing? Now, something else I was wondering. How do you even set up older 90s/2000s Windows games in Launchbox? Some of those might be GOG games I was thinking of getting as well as others I have downloaded as CD images & .exe files Final question, would it be possible to have all DOS,Windows + GOG games displayed all in the same list under "PC Games" or something like that? Thanks in advance, Steve
  12. I went & checked the settings & everything looked right...I didn't change anything, but all of a sudden now the games appear to open..Weird...as long as it stays that way I'll be good I guess
  13. They have all worked fine in MAME though since I started having problems with LB
  14. Well I copied all those over from the backup folder & still couldn't get LB to open at all, kept getting the corrupted file message....so...I just copied over those same files u mentioned from a backup I made of all my LB folders & files a couple months back on another hard drive..and I finally got it to open up again..Big Box seemed to work, there were all my games again to select...but I knew with my luck it wouldn't be that easy...and sure enough, NONE of the games will run. Each one I click on within the wheel, freezes for a second or 2 & then goes right back to the menu. Nothing happens
  15. I clicked on the update exe, reinstalled to new folder & it opened..then I copied all my old folders over from old directory into new Launchbox folder & now getting same message, won't open at all
  16. C:\Launchbox Same location I've always had it, never any problems until this new update
  17. Nope, I get the same message & went back to the data folder & there's no new settings.xml file created
  18. Yes, I renamed it exactly what it was originally called, settings.xml I believe
  19. "It appears that your LaunchBox\Data\Settings.xml file is corrupt; Launchbox can not continue. Please try removing a backup of the file from the Backups folder inside of your Launchbox root folder Root element is missing" So I tried replacing the settings.xml file with the one in the backups & nothing...LB is completely unusable now
  20. Sure NP..didn't realize archives could be uploaded in that section, just went ahead & uploaded them there:
