  1. yeah that gets the games working, however to setup the pause menu it looks a little daunting, and again they want those manuals named a certain way and located in a certain place. Hopefully with @Jason Carr integrating LB with RL he can fix that issue with his awesome "ignore whats in ()" matching, or he can add a different function to autorename the media by the title of the rom.
  2. Just to let everyone know, I found a nice tutorial of setting up rocketlauncher with an already configured launchbox. It helped me out a lot but I think I still have a lot to learn. This video is not mine Youtube These programs that expect media in a certain location is driving me crazy. I probably have close to 75 symbolic links on my drive now!
  3. Ok So I tested some things out and found an alternative. The alternative free solution is DirectNet Drive ((located here for free). This allows a user to actually map the ftp server to a hard drive, which then allows emulators to map the drives. My testing included setting up fceux for NES and playing one game while on the same network of ftp. This worked super fast and no noticeable issue. I then decided to try to set up dolphin emulator. Dolphin is really hard on hardware and this laptop probably could not handle 100% loading only dolphin. So when I loaded it the first time and set it up with the rom path it was a little slower to get the games. After scanning the games I tested Super Mario Sunshine and it took about 20 seconds to load while on the same network as the ftp. it seemed long but understandable since it is ftp and a nonstandard way of playing games. After playing for about 5 minutes I noticed that in some places it ran 100% but mostly it ran about 88% which does stutter. I then closed the emulator, logged in to my cell phone hotspot and tried to load dolphin and the Super mario sunshine. To my surprise it actually loaded within 10 seconds! It also played almost exactly the same, so I think this is a winning Idea for the traveler. More testing however needs to be done with launchbox and ftp, but I see no reason why it would not work. @PittRipply Awesome idea thanks for sharing! @ckp, if the only thing on my ftp server is my games, i'm not too worried about sending it throug. Also with this program, you don't really need to send it over in a link so it is a little more secure, however I would like to connect to ftp with ssl or tts if possible, just have not been able to get it to connect that way yet Any help?
  4. So I googled how to play mp3 file from ftp and came up to a winamp forum. Here is the excerpt Downoaded NetDrive, which allows you to map a network drive to an ftp server http://www.google.com/search?q=netdrive Now I can work directly in the mapped drive in Windows Explorer and it seems to work great! Plays everything and makes file management much easier too! NETDRIVE is not freeware, see below for another program So this looks like it should work for you. Simply map the ftp site to a network drive.
  5. I was just thinking of this last night, sadly while trying to go to sleep. I decided in my tiredness, it would probably not work well, due to speed issues. Although I was not thinking of ftp, I was thinking of using ddns. Maybe I should set something up and check. (Don't count on it), I am very busy right now. Can you play files from a ftp? Try setting up an mp3 and playing it.
  6. Thanks, I hope they will chime in. Lol, I will search when I get home
  7. I wonder how hard it would be to make these member functions work in both bigbox and launchbox. I mean I like the look of bigbox, but there really isn't a reason why as a purchaser I shouldnt be able to access some of the same features in launchbox also.
  8. Yeah I agree, I wish it was an option to select. I could always remap my hotkeyts to be things like tab and f1-F12 buttons. You should create a new request for it and make sure and vote for it yourself and then post it, so I can also vote for it
  9. this is already implemented in big box, go to the rom list and press left and it pulls up the *,#,A-Z. I don't think he can implement it without because of the other hotkeys. For instance I have a hotkey programmed for f and some controllers use letters to search.
  10. Ok so currently I have 2 zero second encoder (Bought here), as well as a bliss-box 4-play (purchased here), which is an all in 1 usb controller adapter. It allows you to use any systems controller on the pc. Anyway back to my trouble. My problem is primarily based on the Zero second encoders, as sometimes when I load them they come up as controller 1 and 2, but sometimes they come up as controller 3 and 4. How do I set these up, so that they don't change. I would like to set them up so that they always get 1 and 2 and the bliss-box grabs 3,4,5,6. I was trying to play mame yesterday and earned of this issue, I then reloaded everything and then I got 1 and 2 again.
  11. I like being able to have everything in one simple post. Yeah it is old, but as far as this page goes all of it was in regards to alpha jump list. @Drodrick @Drybonz The new beta version now allows launchbox also to do alpha jumps, just type a letter on the keyboard and it jumps to that letter
  12. yeah you have to have a certain type of dvd player with hacked firmware to rip 360 games, and you have to have a softmodded wii console to use your wii discs.
  13. screenshots of the adventure packBox art The images included are mainly screenshots, unfortunately. However the new 3.0, there are a lot more box art included!
  14. Yes! Love The Alpha Search Feature!
  15. @meaning_. Did You Try Changing To Screenshots? Also Did You go To The Internet Archive To Download Three Image Packs?
  16. What type of music works in the background folder? Nevermind this question, I was putting my mp3 files into the wrong music\background folder. Also why are the startup sounds all .wav files? I would like to be able to add my own startup sounds but want them to be in mp3 format
  17. @neil9000 have you set it up yet? Did you add a bios or miis?
  18. Ok so Citra has came a long way and now pretty good, especially from the last 2 weeks. They can play just about every game at about 90% correctly (Some stutters, etc) . So I have been getting it to work and have gotten it loaded into launchbox and working. However I have had some hickups. For instance the Mii plaza channel is missing and I can not seem to get a mii charactor built in. I also need to maximize support by adding in my nand into citra. Does anyone know how to get the most out of citra? Thanks
  19. Thank you very much, but why can't i install this in the default launchbox autohotkey script section? do i have to download AHK?
  20. So my brother and I love playing games. It doesn't matter if its arcade, nintendo, sega, sony, xbox. We typically like games where 1 player can kill the other but that is not the object (No fighting games). We also are not too much into the games you have to really work at (like call of duty) we like games like super mario, lode runner dig fight (current favorite), the side games on New super mario, metal warriors (SNES), etc. WE are looking for some new games. What is everyones favorite 2 player games!
  21. Ok so I need to run a program before running a snes game and one after running an snes game. I know I can manually configure the additional apps to run like this, but I have alot of games. I tried editing it via notepad ++ but can not find a way to replace due to how the xml is set up. I see that I can add the file just copy and paste, which would be faster than manually editing in launchbox, but still I have a lot of games. What would make it even better is if I could just load these files whenever I plug in a certain controller, but I don't see how that would be possible. So what is the best way. Thanks
  22. I want to put my vote into this as well. It is defiantly a sign in issue as it recognizes the password is correct, but does not succeed in login
