Is there a way to filter out games that have metadata for generic gamepads/controllers that have "options" added (such as partial)? I looked in the LB filter section, the audit file and the xml file can't find anything (Windows platform). Any help would be appreciated...

Thanks for letting me know that @bundangdon. It was a mess . I should update the sample (youtube) videos as well, they're kinda outdated now too.- 8 comments

Hey All: I've created a badge similar to Steam's badge for Partial Controller support. I have tried different ways to get it work in LB, including trying to use @jayjay's app to create a custom badge with no success. Does anyone know how I can make this happen in LB (preferably without using custom fields)? I am using these settings in LB: Image I am trying to use (image is white transparency) named it PartialGamepadSupport.png Since I haven't been able to get it to work, not sure if I did well with the image itself yet Or is this something that LB folks will have to incorporate into LB for it to work since this field is already used within LB?

Things are looking great Dave. Hope to be able give it a whirl soon! -
Not seen this since the server move (SO much better BTW), but I was trying to upload a couple new screenshots to a existing theme. They were in png format (3840x2160, about 5-6mb), I tried 3 times with no success. Converted them to jpg and they uploaded. Just thought I would let ya'll know.

I suppose I was thinking it might override, like images or platform videos. Oh well, thank ya Sir for the quick reply -
@y2guru Hey Dave. I have been trying to add an intro video to a theme. I dropped it into the ..\My Theme Projects\theme name\BigBox Media Overrides\Videos folder (named Startup.mp4) It copies over when I publish the theme, but it doesn't play when I start BB. Am I putting it in the wrong place or does this not work?

I noticed something that may not be working. I had created a playlist called Recently Added. In the past BB would play videos from games in that playlist. It doesn't seem to be doing that now with the latest beta release. What's funny, is another playlist I created called Recently Played, the videos work... I figured it out. It's the good ole VLC vs WMP issue iin BB. VLC isn't playing webm files from steam. Themes created in CTC have playback issues using VLC. Sure wish someone could find a resolution to this...

I suppose maybe you have missed the point, they were not created for you. These were created for a 5 year old child , that he has since outgrown. I simply shared them with a couple other thousand folks by uploading them. As far as the "ripoff" part? If you are referring to the theme that I think you are, I actually created them for his theme without the trademark thing on them. We actually worked together on his project as we shared ideas and had a good time with it. Then I did these for my grandson. That's one of the cool things about Launchbox. It is designed to make it ANY way you like it. Shoot, when you download LB for the very first time, there are instructions files within the download to help you do exactly that. Creating and sharing what we each contribute is what makes it fun dude!! Most of us that share stuff encourages folks to copy what we share and work with it to make something new or different to share back. "I'm sorry you got so bent out of shape" - never happened to me. I shared a file with you, I encouraged you, heck, now maybe even challenge you to use it, edit it, modify it, whatever you want to do with it. Turn an existing idea into a new idea, ya know?. That is what most every developer on here does, we put the time into it and share back so others are inspired to take things even further. Have fun dude. . Tell ya what, since you are so unhappy with with my work, I offer you 100% refund!!!! - The Papaw -
@jot1132 Sorry you dislike them. I consider that to be more a "logo" or "trademark" so to speak rather than a watermark. I do all this stuff for my grandson, which was 5 when I did these and simply share it with the community. BTW, I changed my user name to The Papaw after doing all these. Been a couple years since I made these and I have since lost some of the data I used back then, but I think this was the template I used to make them. Feel free to use my template to make a set to your liking. I'm sure you can do a better job than these as I had never opened PP before making these. Hopefully you will share them with the community as well. Video Snaps - Full Screen.pptx I look forward to see what you come up with... - The Papaw

Not sure what you mean, there are no watermarks?
-
Thanks C-Beats, that good to know
-
Yes, these were something I had done for a personal project and decided to share. I lost the hard drive that had all the templates I had used to make them. That's also why I haven't updated them. I had done them using Power Point if I remember correctly.

Maybe one of the LB team can verify for sure, but you might rename them and add the "-01", "-02". "-03" and it might work, but not 100% sure. I.E. "Sega Genesis-01.mp4", "Sega Genesis-02.mp4", "Sega Genesis-03.mp4", It might also depend on the theme being used? Very good question. -
Just curious Jason, If I already had been using the Bezel Project previous to the LB addition, will this affect my cfg files the Bezel Project has already created or ones I may have edited?

That's exactly what I was needing, thank you @Your Friendly A.I Overlord

The wife asked me to add a few flash games. I have the swf's and am able to run them in the flashplayer_32_sa.exe from adobe. If I set up flashplayer_32_sa.exe (as an emulator) and use the swf files for the roms, am I able to do something in LB using a AHK to do a <CTRL>+F4 when or after it launches the swf? The <CTRL>+F4 is just making the flash player go full screen after a game is launched in it. I meant <CTRL>+f

Games do not launch full screen from BB, that is what I am trying to accomplish, weather by a switch, such as -f or -fullscreen (which I have tried both and neither work). I want to do this automatically when a game launches, not using the keyboard, maybe with an AHK script or something if there are no switches Thanks for replying -

I was able to get it going, is there a way to add a switch or anything to make it go full screen when launching from LB? -
Give me a bit and I'll give it a whirl

Anyone know if this is still do-able with version 10.1? -
@Mikee580 Are you looking for something that runs on like a 9:16, 10:16 or 3:4 aspect ratio? If so, maybe I can attempt to mod it for ya.

Platform Voice Packs - 190-200 Platforms in Each Pack

There isn't one here. These were created in the Amazon Development tools, the actual tool is call Polly. Amazon has added a couple voices and features since I did these. If you have a AWS account, they are real easy to make. you can check there to see if you can find more of what you are looking for. I made these and and added reverb to some of them using Audacity. -
I can't say for sure. what type of device are you using? If you are able too, maybe you can test it and let me know how it turns out. I don't have anything to try it on, but you have me curious now...haha. I used the "Stretch" mode in CTC, so it isn't in 16:9 or 4:3 mode.
