[Long Starup Times]

e8800 duo pc windows 7 . mala works fine but mala doesnt try to do the fancy dan stunts that bigbox does.. Im not complaining

[Long Starup Times]

tried changing to by date this afternoon...no improvement . The installation has slowed down as I added playlists . So either better PC or fewer playlists.

[Long Starup Times]

for me bigbox takes 30- 40 seconds to load each change of playlist , arcade to best of arcade, arcade to vector games etc, and then is very smooth when in the actual playlist view. Each time the view changes the lag is there . I have an older CPU

thanks that did the job.

Bigbox is working sweet as a nut on my Intel Duo E8800 and windows 7. 

[using existing Mame assets]

I have an installation of Mame with Mala frontend in an arcade cabinet and I am installing Launchbox in parallel ( the PC in the cab is quite slow so I want to test Bigbox before I move away from Mala)

I already have images and videos in the various Mame subdirectories and would like to use these .

How to I configure Launchbox to use these assets

 

thanks

[Build an Arcade Cabinet?]

I built mine from scratch and it sits in the corner of the lounge. I built it because I grew up playing the machines when I was a student in the 1980s and I can remember which pub each game was in!

In truth it doesnt get played very often but I enjoyed building it , and I love having it to show off the old games to mates.

Great to watch my sons student mates loving the old games.

 

[Best way to streamline MAME roms - Favor USA region & 2 Player?]

in mala it is possible to make sub menus consisting of a type or groups of games, For example I have Dads Oldies, Trackball Games, 2 Player games etc there is an option to add the games to each list. No sure if Launchbox has this . Maybe others can help
