To group games I usually use Playlist If you want to put your games together with MS-Dos, then create a playlist But if you want to add them apart, you should create a dedicated platform. Call it Doom Msdos and scrape it like Ms-Dos, should work

I have imported successfully using the "folder option" But the error keep on going using more files

Hi all! That is a new error that now is happening. Usually I use 2 different way to import roms: 1) I select all the roms that I want to import and then I drag&drop in LB. Then appear the import screen that we know 2) I select from tools "import roms", appears the screen, I select "files" and then add all the files that I need, inserting in the right up corner *.cue or *.fpt or others and then select all and click ADD. LB add all to the screen and I proceed. At this time, instead, with method 1) it does nothing. If I drag&drop 1 or 2 roms it starts, if I drop more then 2 roms it does nothing. I have tried different ones, nothing. Instead if I pick 10 icons from desktop and drop them...it Starts! With the second method LB show the message that I attach. If I select 1 or 2 roms it adds them, if I select 3...error. II have tried different ones but nothing. It is very strange, maybe something has been damaged? Thank you! ErroreImport.bmp

Thank you very much for your reply! Yes, I understand what you are saying and it is absolutely true! I wasn't thinking about that. My BB is a little confusing. For sure it is not simple because I like having a lot of different views, style and so on. But you are right, not everyone could like that mess! This gives me the opportunity to reflect on myself. I think my BB reflects a lot of what my character is. I thank you again very much for this thoughtful stimulus that you have offered me.

Yes, you are right. But why? It is a stupid idea? Or simply we dont need? My collection is always expanding and updating, maybe I am a bit exaggerated? 🤣

All the world loves Barbie and Batman 🤣

Hi all! Sorry to bother you with my thought. I am wondering because you all are not interested in this feature: https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/6928/having-different-category-platform I think I am doing some mistake or maybe I am not thinking it in the right way, so, please, help me to understand. What I am asking with this feature is the ability to have different Themes in BB in playlist/category platform and platform, like we have at the moment for the roms. When we enter a playlist, you know, we can set different themes. So, the Barbie collection can use Unified Redux meanwhile the Batman collection can use Cover Box theme. And this is very fascinating. I'd like having the same when I enter Console or Arcade for example. Arcade are a different world from console or computers, handheld, hack and so on. And I'd like having different themes. yes, I am like a little child when I start my BB, I pass time looking my collection and trying to make it always better. Dont you think that it should be a good idea? I imagine the zelda "tree" collection with Pademonium set theme, meanwhile Arcade with Unified and "The best of" my arcade playlist with another one. What dont you like in that? We should study and create Themes only for a specific Category for example. I love you all anyway, even if you dont vote it...but if you vote it I'll love you more!!! 🤣

Happy for you 😊

Yes, create a text file, copy the code in and then save. .txt must be renamed to .bat to be launched Try it in a little folder if you want to test it.

effectively I have assumed he had the folder of each game, otherwise is quite impossible

ho provato con questo: e ha creato una serie di file txt con lo stesso nome dei folder nella stessa DIR that's it!

Aggiungo...direi che ti serva un singolo file di testo per ogni titolo del gioco per poterlo importare correttamente. E non un unico file contenente tutti i titoli, operazione di import che non ho mai fatto su LB e non so nemmeno se si possa eseguire.

Vedo che hai tradotto in italiano, allora faccio prima a risponderti così che il mio inglese fa acqua da tutte le parti! Adesso che ho capito meglio cosa ti serve, ricordo che avevo letto ciò che cerchi da qualche parte, forse addirittura un video tutorial in launchbox, in cui venivano appunto importati dei files txt al posto dei file di gioco...ricordarsi dove lo abbia visto però... Alla fine ti serve un batch files che automatizzi tale operazione. Sono una schiappa in queste cose ma scommetto che provi una di queste o unisci i comandi qualcosa ne trai...o forse una ricerca migliore della mia su google: (ho cercato "batch command to create text file with folder name") https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20233707/how-to-create-a-batch-file-to-write-the-folder-name-in-a-text-file-inside-each-f https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33571767/batch-file-to-create-a-text-file-with-the-same-name-as-every-zip-file-in-a-dire La prima parte for /d %%a in (*) do Mi pare che faccia al caso tuo perché analizza ogni nome di folder, la secondo dovrebbe essere quella di scrivere il file. Chissà che qualcuno di più esperto non ti aiuti. Potresti anche provare qualche tentativo in una directory test. Torno al mio lavoro.

I hope it can help. When I import Windows Games I generally use the shortcut files. And usually all windows games have one. depends on where you have put them but if they were in your windows folder, you should "add files" and then in the search box type "*.lnk" to search all the games files with the right title also. Search act in subfolder too. It is the same process that you use when you import a lot of cue/bin roms. Sorry if it can help!

Dear Mr. Shizzy, I have not a right reply to give you. But I am here to quote what are you saying. I have already meet this theme and I "vote" for having files separated. If we take, for example: https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/images/576 Ridge Racer Type 4 you can see that with the game, not all version anyway, comes Ridge Racer Turbo Mode, that is a demo game of the first Ridge Racer playable at 60hz. I'd like having it separated in some way and not only in "apps". Is not another version of the same game. Maybe the DB should be organized a little in a different way. Each bonus disc or extra disc should keep the link (ID?) with his original disc but having his space. In my collection I can keep the bonus disc and not the original game from which it come.

here you can find a plugin to create more badges: In the comment you can find also the retroachievement badge of JoeViking245 I have put and issue to request integration in LB https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/6930/creating-more-badge vote it!

Organizzazione.bmp This is a question that I have done a lot of time. I find yours organization very interesting. Mine is more classic maybe. I have divided in this way because of I have to show the right video in BB. If I cant find an appropriate video is very hard that I put a voice in the tree. Under computer, console and so on I have all the platform, not grouped like you. With your system I think that you navigate better if you have a lot of voices...and I have. Under "I preferiti di xevvino" I have put a platform and a genre category in which I put my favourites games! I miss pinball because I have not understood yet how they works and which one I have to use. But soon or later... If you look, handhelds can be under console, web broweser under computer and my favourites undere playlist. Why I have separated? Because I want more voices at start, not too much but I prefer to start with a good set. I dont like to select too much voices to reach a game. Anyway it is an hard work, it's 3 years now that I am working on it!

I dont know if it can help but: try to change the view in LB to "playlist" and then search them there. Maybe you have to select the right "parent" to nest them correctly. The playlist name can be what you want. In some BB themes there are already some playlists images and if you want to use them you have to match the same name. But LB can read a playlist called "SAKLJDKLASJDLKAJKSLK" to be used with any system.
