I also wanted to bring to attention that Daphne also has new games that work with it called, Singe. These games include Mad Dog Mcree 1 and 2, Time Traveler, Time Gal, Crime Patrol 1 and 2, Ninja Hayate, Space Pirates, the last bounty hunter, and who shot johnny rock. These setup the .bat way typically.

Ok so I have found a couple ways of fixing Daphne. 1. Using the instructions here on Page 1. I could not get the original bat file to work using windows 10, how ever when I changed the bat file to the following it worked and simplified it, all you do is place it in the daphne root directory. EDIT: (I found this on my own, but upon reading page 3 of this topic I saw that Soul Chip has already posted about it) daphne.exe %1 vldp -fullscreen -noserversend -framefile "Z:\VideoGames\Games\Daphne\framefile\%1\%1.txt" 2. Using Lord Monkus way. This is my favorite way, you can name the directory and the framefile whatever you like. I made some changes on this one to and simplified it, this also incorporates a minimized cmd window (it does flash on screen still so not a complete solution. if not DEFINED IS_MINIMIZED set IS_MINIMIZED=1 && start "" /min "%~dpnx0" %* && exit z:\videogames\games\daphne\daphne.exe lair vldp -fullscreen -noserversend -framefile "Z:\VideoGames\Games\Daphne\framefile\dragons lair\dragons lair.txt" exit So in the example above I am running Dragons Lair, I still use lair as the call to daphne, however my directory and my framefile is called dragons lair. I'm ocd about my folder structure I then use Drewman 70's idea and create a shortcut to the bat and set it to minimize on load Hope this helps! Edited to add thanks to both Lord Monkus, Soul Chip, Drewman70, and CADScott, great tutorial

ok thanks!

So what I meant was that after I loaded lets say NES, i forgot to click on clear logo, so I went back in and clicked clear logo. Which should then search all my highlighted games and either launchbox or emumovies (whichever I selected). The problem is it just scans all the files in like 5 seconds and doesn't download anything and then says 500 games updated. This is just an example of what I was speaking of. I don't remember the actual occurence, but it seemed to be whenever I was looking for 1 or 2 things. Also didn't launchbox used to download manuals? I see the option but it never downloaded any in all the systems I tried.

So I have been redoing all of my images. My issue is sometimes when I only want to update a couple of fields of images or music or whatever, It quickly goes through all the files and downloads nothing. I have manually updated some of the same files. Any sort of hints or tricks I can try?

Also for the insert coin, you could just map it to any button, buttons can be multi-use. So lets say I wanted coin to also be button 7. You would want to make it a button you don't normally use however. I think long press buttons are usually set up in the controller menu. For instance I have that ability through the ipac software programming. Maybe joy2key or a program like that?

I have no clue but I have seen a the additional apps section in each game edit menu. or you could write some sort of .bat file to make it load both... For intance I have successfully loaded these files on launchbox. This one loads You dont know jack version 2 :: YDKJ Version 2 :: @ECHO OFF "Z:\VideoGames\Games\Computers\Windows\YDKJ\YDKJ 2.iso" PING 1.1.1.1 -n 2 -w 2500 >NUL "Z:\VideoGames\Games\Computers\Windows\YDKJ\V2\YDKJ32v2.exe" exit First it runs the iso , which opens it in Virtualclone drive Then it delays for 2500 (not sure how long that is), I change it to where it has the lowest number and still always works. Then it runs the play file and exits the bat. This way when i exit the game i go directly back to launchbox

@Zombeaver, I think that is how exo did his win3xO set. So I click on a game, it loads windows 3.1 and immediately loads the game. it is a very barebones version of 3.1 If anyone needs help setting it up let me know, i just set up all of the DoseXo sets and Win3xO. They are really awesome sets

Um there is a set of windows 3.X games called Win3xO, made by evo. You cans earch in google and find that. it integrates into launchbox. the only issue with this is. because it uses launchbox and windows 3.1 is needed, he had to add windows to every file. so the files are a little larger than they need to be. However DARKSEED2 is part of his set and you could just download that one file.

Yeah it was a bit confusing. It was about romsets, but instead of saying that I wanted to cut my c64 catalog down from 20,000 to the lets say 1,000 decent games, I said I needed to know what good games were there. Since everyone was responding with favorite games, I enjoyed the outcome. My list Alice In Wodnerland Archon Artillery Duel B.C Quest for glory Battle Chess Battle Tech Beyond the forbidden forest California Games Choplifter Gi Joe (even though it was impossible) Ghostbusters Jumpman Karateka Lemmings Lemonade Mail Order Monsters Neuromancer Rat Race Raid On Bungeling Bay Raid Over Moscow Rambo: First Blood Part II Rock Horror SAM Spy Hunter Spy vs spy Summer games I and II Transformers Winter Games Growing up my dad had a friend with a c64 and so when we got ours, we got copies of all of their games. the c64 is where I started my adventures of BBS' and the fun of all that.

have you tried simply trying to add it to the emulator list? I have never heard of that emulator. check here, also does demul work, i have heard a lot of good things about that emulator

How i added my exodos into launchbox was by taking a file manager and doing the search for *.bat in the games folder (file manager is faster than launchbox), and then I moved all the install files over, keeping the folder structure. Then I followed the instructions. This went alot faster than having to click on every install.bat fle in the launchbox list (in win3xo there is over 1000). Also the front page instructions are kind of confusing it says to "delete all install files" , yet the install files are necessary so you do not want to delete them, just not include them.

Ok so I always looking to play my c64 collection, but usually don't because I'm not sure which of the 20,000 games is any good or playable.

So If i am setting up a console (Atari, Nintendo, Sega, etc), in what manner does launchbox find the games? Do they get some sort of id for the file? Does it for instance for a file called All-Star Baseball 2001 (USA).zip, how does the system find that it is suppose to be just All-Star Baseball 2001? The reason I ask is, I am having some trouble while adding a new No-Intro Atari 2600 set. The set is perfect (to no-intro), but Launchbox finds 176 out of 532. If I instantly go back and configure the games directory and rescan it brings in up to 211 for no known reason. I can manually add the roms, but this is very slow. Some of the problem files, have been tested and they do work in stella and retroarch. Any ideas, how to fix?

Would this work? Thinking of having my xml files from launchbox (platforms and whatever else i can) located on my nas drive, that way all my launchboxes would have all the same configs automatically, using symbolic links. The biggest problem i see, is on this computer i have it installed on the d drive, other computers i would have installed on the c drive.

Thanks dos76! I think i will be getting some of these also! I have been having issues, trying to make all these emulators work with the ipac and started running into trouble. I also have a trackball, and I was trying to dual purpose the left and right button as also button 1 and button 2 in emulators. Most emulators allowed it, but then i ran into some that did not and so I messed with different key combinations, which caused other issues. Do you by any chance have a trackball also? If so, how did you run your buttons? also does this allow controller 1 and 2 to control the interface in launchbox?

Thanks everyone!

@DOS76, What are zero delay encoders? do they work with universal arcade controls where you hook the wires up yourself? Can you tell me where you bought them or the manufacturer or both? How many players?

Sorry guys, I answered my own question. I looked for this originaly and couldn't find it...

lol but is your question answered all you need to do is edit your post and take out the link. I see now what you see. These are not actually the 1:1 copy of these games. These authors have supposively rewrote the games to look like replicas of the originals. Why they would name them like they are originals are unknown. Back to your question, this is why your collection only has that many roms in it. It is not the actual manufacturers and the games you are missing simply have not been recreated yet. It still falls within questionable position in regards to this forum and for you to attack me over me trying to help you was ridiculous. I would suggest you reference the link that was posted above about mame. These should include the 170 games you are speaking of.

Davez there are roms on that page go here http://www.!!!!!!!!.it/sim/download.php go to the download page and they allow you to download tiger games.

Replay, I have done that now, but for future I would like to join in at a higher percentage. With some of the updates, all they are is renames (which i understand I can do by using the scan feature. I am just trying to learn more about clrmamepro
