Cool, i wasnt sure as the the site lists emulation as "Discuss emulators, console platforms, and related games." to me that is a software related forum, but that cool. Thanks for looking at the message

@Jason Carr Can we get a Sub-forum under Off Topic for Controllers? So I need to get some user input as to how I should connect and Ipac Ultimate, 2 Ultimarc U360 controllers, 2 spintraks, and 1 Happ 3" Track ball. I originally planned on connecting everything to the Ipac Ultimate. However, I asked Andy how to get this accomplished and he basically sent an email stating "Usually its not necessary to connect the U360 to the I-PAC. The output mode was originally intended for situations where there is no USB port on the host. It will work fine in Mame if just connected via USB, in all games" i know that I don't have to connect it, but what if I change my ipac to Dinput or Xinput mode? Don't I want my U360 to change with it? I also want to use this control for other emulators like N64 and lower

Importing the Win3xO and eXoDOS Collections (Now with Win3xO+eXoDOS images!)
Aevans0001 replied to syntax_X's topic in DOSBox
Robin, which game or games do you have this problem with? If the games work fine using the version of launchbox that came with the exodos, but doesn't work when using need version, you should probably ask @Jason Carr. -
I second what @Line said above. I also would second the suggestion that we should be able to see the picture of the control panel. Emumovies has a downloaded file with a lot of the arcade control panels included. Errors I have found On Occasion Pause screen freezes up after viewing manual. I thought it was a rocketlauncher, but even after i disabled rocketlauncher it was still occasionally locking up. I tried it on 2 games and it locked up on Bagman mostly. Great Work @Jason Carr

Hi, So I was wondering what the benefits of Rocket Launcher these days. With Jason currently working on Pause screens, and Startup screens working. I know that they set controller mappings pretty easily, but don't know what the real benefit of any of it is now.

Daphne Laser Disc emulator - a comprehensive tutorial
Aevans0001 replied to CADScott's topic in Emulation
Do you mean scanlines in daphne or in lb or in all emulators? I have never seen a plugin for daphne scanlines. -
So correctly what I have. 1 Nas (4x4TB) Total 11TB 1 Box account (50GB) 1 Amazon Drive (1 TB) Multiple computers and laptops with C and D drives Cdrive is for windows and random emulator user profiles (using symbolic links) D Drive is for LB/BB, Rocketlauncher, Some emulators, All image files (Boxes, SS, etc), Windows games Z drive is NAS and I have All Roms, All Videos, All Manuals, All Music, All Configuration files By not using a backup software to backup my settings, I have no need to make sure that the files have been updated, it is instant. Currently I have CEMU, CXBX, Pinball FX2, Xenia, Retroarch, and MAME running from my D drive with the settings being on the Z: drive. For frontends I use LB/BB and Rocketlauncher (although shortly I hope to get rid of RL and just use LB/BB from the D Drive I have symbolic links from the default folders to my Nas drive. For instance I have a symbolic link from d:\games\Launchbox\Games\ --------> z:\videogames\Games also one from d:\games\launchbox\manuals ----------> z:\videogames\manuals This way there is less configuration to do in launchbox, everything is default. Since @peterrrjr post I now have my images in a symbolic link from d:\games\launchbox\images ---------------> d:\cloud\amazon drive\Launchbox images. Which automatically backs up to my amazon drive with unlimited photo storage, and in turn also sync to my nas drive under z:\amazondrive and to my arcade to d:\cloud\amazon drive\launchox images. Which again means less configuration as all pc machines are the same. If I add images to one pc, it will automatically sync to the other pc within minutes. If you would like any of y other batch files, let me know.

@Lukeyboy67 The problem with your setup is that you are still using your external drive to load your images, not your ssd (as far as I understand). I know that when I tried having my images on my nas it ran really slowly, and not worth the extra time it took. I also learned from my most recent experience, there is such thing as too many symbolic links. I am attaching some of the batch files i created to automatically create the symbolic links I currently use. I will include what I use for Launchbox, Rocketlauncher, and MAME. I also have other emulators. Basically what I wanted to do was have certain emulators on my D drive on both my Arcade and my regular computer, yet have my settings be found on the nas. This way both PCs have the same exact user experience. Run the files as admin @peterrrjr This sounds like a great idea for my images, currently I have them in the images directory on my launchbox folder, and I have to manually copy them over to each pc. How did you setup the cloud service to work the best? Rocket Launcher symbolic Links.bat Launchbox Symbolic Links.bat Mame Symbolic Links.bat

Sync'd copy of LaunchBox not launching on other PC
Aevans0001 replied to vertigoelectric's topic in Troubleshooting
Vertigo, you could setup a shared drive and then use symbolic links. I use a nas system and use symbolic links on all of the important configuration files. -
Daphne Laser Disc emulator - a comprehensive tutorial
Aevans0001 replied to CADScott's topic in Emulation
Ok so I use rocket launcher so my actual setup is different but here is the setup to use launchbox, Daphne, and Cliff hanger. I chose Cliff because I am not sure if talking about Lair is allowed. 1. Make sure yur games work in daphneloader.exe 2. add a game to Launchbox and make the game to point to daphne.exe 3. make sure and turn off emulator in launchbox 4. Load daphneloader.exe 5. Click on game then click on configure 6. Set your game preferences 7. Click on advance tab and and enable display command line 8. exit configure and load game, you will now see this screen 9. Click copy to clipboard and paste this information to launchbox edit game screen as shown below. 10. if you notice I delete daphne.exe from the application command line parameters. Now simply load the game! If you have any other questions let me know. If you would like to know how to setup rocketlauncher with Daphne also let me know. -
I am having an issue though I have multiple displays but only 1 screen active in Big box and sometimes it loads like this. Quite often today ( i just moved i to screen 2 (which is larger) and I have rebooted multiple times. Sometimes it comes up right, others not so much Edit 1: If I load big box directly from the big box shortcut I get this, If I load launchbox and then big box it works ok Edit 2: If the shortcut is on my smaller screen, big box loads like above on the bigger screen. If the shortcut is on bigger screen it loads correctly. Is there anyway to fix this?

So what is out of order I see 2. unified refried should be under Criticalzonev2 and above unified refried - Arcade. Also Pinball FX should be under Pinball Arcade, The. I just loaded the same theme, mine shows up correctly. However I changed Unified Refried - Arcade to Unified Refried-Arcade to test and It still showed up Alphabetically, but it was changed in the list to correspond with Unified Refried-Arcade. My The Pinball Arcade is sorting under The Pinball Arcade not Pinball Arcade, The. Not saying this is an issue just was unsure how it sorted.

Look above he already answered the videos auto playing. I think maybe the new version turned that off somehow, as mine was unchecked also.

EDIT: NVM, this was answered here

if you have time, if you can link me to the download page or send me a pm with it. I looked and not exactly sure what to look for
-
Ok so I got those. However what i was trying to do is get what this guy got working. Check it out at 7:24 of the video Ultimate Multicade Edit: Found out he uses LEDBlinky, however is there a database of configuration files for all the games?

@ninja2bceen I din't see any instruction cards. I did find the bezel project and have added those, it was really easy. Thank you. However I am really looking for the instruction cards.

Daphne Laser Disc emulator - a comprehensive tutorial
Aevans0001 replied to CADScott's topic in Emulation
add this to the top of your bat file Letter of drive example D? CD "(name of directory to daphne)" don't forget quotes example cd "emulators\daphne\" So my bat file would be d: cd "Emulators\Daphne v1.0-2.2.11 (Customized)" daphne.exe lair vldp -framefile "D:\Emulators\Daphne v1.0-2.2.11 (Customized)\framefile\lair.txt" -blank_searches -homedir "Z:\Emulators\Daphne (Customized)" -useoverlaysb 1 -bank 0 11001000 -bank 1 00000010 -noserversend -sound_buffer 2048 -x 640 -y 480 then save that as Dlair.bat. If that works post back to here then I will give step by step instructions -
Is there a feature to show games with missing media. For example, I see hide games with missing box art. But i don't want to hide it, I would like to find missing box art. I don't really know why anyone would want to hide games based on media.

@rgreen2002 Ok so you have the files working in daphne? Do you know the command line to run those games automatically? for instance here is my command line daphne.exe lair vldp -framefile "D:\Emulators\Daphne v1.0-2.2.11 (Customized)\framefile\lair.txt" -blank_searches -homedir "Z:\Emulators\Daphne (Customized)" -useoverlaysb 1 -bank 0 11001000 -bank 1 00000010 -noserversend -sound_buffer 2048 -x 640 -y 480 now copy that into a new text file save that file as DLair.bat or something similiar. Go into launchbox and add rom file but no emulator. make it add the batch file you created. This should add it -
Have you uploaded them here? thank you for this

Ok these files allow you to rename any Gamebase collection Games, Screenshots, Sids, and Extras! Ok so I know this is not exactly what everyone was looking for, but I created a renamer for GB64 V15. It is a simple batch file. If I can I will attach both the excel and the batch file so you can update it with v16 if it ever comes out. This was very easy to be made, and the end result is this MOVE "j\JUMPMAN1_04000_02.zip" "Jumpman (4000).zip" Instructions on how to convert to other gamebases. 01. Open Database file (in this case it was C:\GameBase\GBC_v15\GBC_v15.mdb) 02. Open the Attached spreadsheet file 03. Copy Full Row of GA_ID, NAME, and Filename from Database to spreadsheet 04. The rest should be automatic, unless there is more than 25,000 entries. In that case you will need to copy d2-F2 to d250001 - D ?? ??=to wherever file list ends 05. On first line of new text file type the path to the games for instance C:\GB64 06. Copy Row D to new text file 07. Save text file as "Name of gamebase renamer.bat" 08. run new text file 09. optional: add Pause at the end of the batch file 10. Optional: Column E shows number of special characters (this mainly finds the letters with tildies and appostrophies) Unfortunately It does not rename ALL of the files, only the ones actually listed in the database. This is a problem with the GB64 creator, rather than the renamer. For instance out of 42,718 screenshots 17,881 are not renamed, but there should be 1 per game. GB64 Extras Rename.xlsx GB64 Rename.xlsx GB64 sCREENSHOT AND SID RENAMER.xlsx COPY EXTRAS.bat MOVE EXTRAS.bat Copy Sid.bat Move Sid.bat Copy Screenshots.bat Move Screenshots.bat Copy Games.bat Move Games.bat
