I created a shortcut for steam to add a few commands. I have it set to start in offline mode and not verify any files by typing "F:\Steam\Steam.exe -noverifyfiles-offline" as the target in the shortcut. It loads super fast. Is there a way to get launchbox to run this shortcut instead of the normal .exe when I launch a steam game?

Guess that’s what I’m going to have to do. Boggles my mind that I can’t hide that. It’s windows so I shouldn’t be surprised.

I have an SSD so it boots fairly quickly but I was so close to having it perfect that it’s bothering me.

Tried it and it still shows my name and picture. There has to be a way to do this. I’m shocked with people making arcade cabinets with these frontends I’d easily be able to find this information. If you find anything else let me know. If not thanks for the help.

I’m trying to get my Windows 10 Pro PC to boot directly into BigBox the second I push the power button without showing the bios, windows logo and login screens. I’m having a problem getting rid of the login screen. I’ve done the netplwiz command to uncheck the password requirement so it does automatically login but it still shows my user name and picture before it boots to BigBox. Any idea how I can hide those?

You guys can keep this thread as a lesson in file management.

Just to add to this debacle I was using a shortcut for the old Retroarch version that had the bios files in it. I kept that just to make sure I didn't lose any setting and I should have deleted it immediately after I setup the new version. Anyway here are the pics.

I can't believe I just did this but I had an older version of Retroarch that I kept before installing the new version and I put the bios files in that system folder. The new version of RA somehow still found those bios files in the old version's folder! So LB wouldn't run because those files weren't in the right location. I moved them into the latest RA 1.7.0 system folder and it works. Wow I feel dumb...! I hope you guys get paid for this. Thanks!!!!

Version 8.1

Not yet but I’ll be doing that soon.

I have a lot setup with retroarch (nes, snes, sms, genesis, game gear, gamboy ... etc) and they work fine in LB.

Like I said I appreciate you guys trying. If you think of anything else I can try or others having this problem let me know.

You had my hopes up.

Can you try the Sega CD too DOS76?

Originally I did have LB move them and they were zipped at the time. I'm teaching myself how these CD based emulators work so I ended up deciding to unzip them in the location LB move them to and deleted the zipped files. Then I wanted to start over so I removed the platform and reimported the .cue files from that folder.

I appreciate you guys helping me out but I’m not the only one having this problem. See the thread below. Looks like you guys were helping on this but it ended up devolving into Retroarch setup. I’m not sure what else to try.

Can one of you copy a fresh LB install and try to import one to see if it works?

Have any of you tried to import these with the latest version of LB and Retroarch?

Is that specifically for LB because like I said they work fine in Retroarch?

Yes, exactly like the tutorial video. I tied it a few times by removing the platform and reimporting them just to make sure I didn’t make a mistake.

No, nothing happens. I have the files unzipped so they load quickly too. When I'm in RA I can easily select the .cue file and it loads right away.

Yes

Attached is a pic of my settings. The Sega CD was filled out automatically with the correct core but I had to add the 3DO manually even though I select RA as the emulator. Thanks for the quick response btw.

I have both the Sega CD and 3DO completely set up in Retroarch and they work fine. I followed the tutorial below to import them into LB exactly. This is specifically for the Sega CD but I applied the same process for the 3DO and neither will open in LB. When I try to open a game in LB Retroarch doesn’t even open. Like I said there is no problem within Retroarch including me having all the correct bios files. I’m wondering if there is some bug within the latest version of LB. I’m using LB version 8.1 and the latest Retroarch 1.7.0. There’s another thread talking about this but it devolved into Retroarch setups. Can somebody try to get these to work starting from scratch with the latest versions of LB and RA and let me know if they work? If they work any suggestions for me? Thanks.

Thanks a lot Jason! I love this feature and would like to see you incorporate a third monitor. I’d like to use it to display fighting game move lists or codes for NBA jam amongst other things. It would be cool to be able to map a button that would scroll through the images. It would be nice to be able to run video on the other monitors as well.
