Do you seriously think I don’t know how to do something that basic? Obviously I know how to do i. The issue is something else, and you completely missed it. My request was clear: I want the platform to reappear automatically after unlocking, but that option doesn’t exist in BigBox’s “Security” settings. The point is that I have already set up total blocking by removing all security filters, and I like that. I also like that when I unlock with the PIN, all filters and categories become visible again and the user can freely navigate between platforms and categories. So, technically, everything is already possible, except for one fundamental thing: I would like BigBox to start directly in the Arcade games list, so that the user is forced to unlock with the PIN to access the other platforms. At the moment, this is not possible because: There is no security option that allows this behaviour, or There is no way to automatically start BigBox within a specific platform view. That is, I could display all games, which is possible, but it would defeat my intention to show only arcade games. I know it can be done later, but I don't see how to do it at startup. IN SHORT : I need to be able to view only one platform when BigBox starts up and see only those games from that platform. I need to be able to unlock BigBox with a PIN and then see the other platforms and games.

Hi! I'm trying to configure BigBox on my arcade cabinet so that, when it starts up, it only shows the Arcade platform and all its games. The idea is to create a simple and fun experience for my children and their friends, who are used to inserting a token just like in old-fashioned arcades. I would like the other platforms and categories, such as console systems, to become visible once BigBox is unlocked. This is exactly what I can't seem to achieve. At the moment, I've removed all the filters and I'm almost there, but I'm missing an option that allows BigBox to start up showing only one platform. Maybe there's already a way to do this and I just don't know about it, or maybe it's possible to achieve this with clever use of playlists or custom themes. Has anyone tried something similar? I would really appreciate any help or suggestions!

Big thanks! I ended up modifying both scanlines.png (made it fully transparent) and bezel.png (cleaned out the fake CRT grime and left only the outer frame), and now the RetroCRT theme looks absolutely amazing on my real 15 kHz CRT running at 640x480 😍 Now there's just one last thing I'd like to fix: The text (especially in the Hiscore view, but also in BigBox menus in general) is very small at this resolution. Is there a way to: Increase font size in the RetroCRT theme? Enlarge the BigBox UI text overall, maybe force scaling for low-res displays? Thanks again, the setup already looks fantastic, but better readability would make it perfect!

Hi, I finally brought home my 15Hz cabin cruiser that I had built years ago. It originally had Windows XP, but I have now fitted a new PC with Windows 11 and BigBox. I really like the RetroCRT theme, but I'd like to remove the scanline effect, since on a real CRT it's totally useless (in fact, it worsens the visual rendering). I read on the forum that it can be removed by editing the .xaml files in the folder \LaunchBox\Themes\RetroCRT\Views\ but I didn't succeed. Can someone please help me?

My Krull scores are present on your server, so it worked correctly in the past. However, new scores are no longer being uploaded. The upload still works fine for other games, so I believe Krull should be added to the list of games that are currently experiencing issues. Does anyone know anything about this and can help me?

Hi, actually it still works for me, but I think it depends on how you exit the game. Exiting with "Esc" is different from exiting through the LaunchBox pause menu. I personally put the same script in both contexts, so I get the same result whether I exit with "Esc" or using the LaunchBox button combination or the pause menu. Also, of course, it depends on your configuration, which might be different from mine or others. In general, though, I recommend using WinClose instead of Process, Close. You can try something like this: WinClose, ahk_exe {{{StartupEXE}}} or WinClose, ahk_exe mame.exe or (if you want to be sure) WinClose, ahk_exe {{{StartupEXE}}} Sleep 200 WinClose, ahk_exe mame.exe The WinClose approach allows you to directly close the emulator without any risk of losing save data, unlike Process Indeed

If you have an NVIDIA graphics card, try going to the NVIDIA Control Panel and managing 3D Settings. Under the Vulkan/OpenGL Presentation Mode option, set the method to swapchain DXGI.

I’m adding my testimony as well...I’m experiencing the same crash issue. I hope a solution is found soon

Have you tried the "Games Without Media" tool in LaunchBox?
