[Vectrex Emulation Made Easy With ParaJVE]

Thank you @zombeaver, your instructions on parajve worked perfectly 

[Can't get Splash screen to change for BigBox]

Can't believe how stupid I was. I bought the license earlier this week but forgot to upgrade. Upgraded now to 7.14 and the only thing I had to do was add file startup.mp4 to the videos root folder. Thanks Neil for pointing me in the right direction. Back outdoors for my walk of shame now

[Can't get Splash screen to change for BigBox]

First, thank you for your patience and quick replies. I am running Launchbox 7.3. I disabled sound on start and splashscreen in BigBox. BigBox now just starts without anything. I now only have a folder called startup in the root of Launchbox. In this folder I have now placed a couple of videos with different names but when I start BigBox (either direct or via launchbox) nothing happens. BigBox just starts without playing the videos.

Sorry to keep bothering you on this, I am just tearing my hair out for hours now and I dont get it to work. There was no 'startup' folder in my Videos folder so I created it and placed the file called startup.mp4 in there. I have also placed it in the root of the Videos folder. This doesn't work. i keep getting the original BigBox start screen and sound. Now, in the Videos folder I can see other folders called Arcade, Nintendo 64 etc which contain some videos. However the root of my Launchbox/Videos folder is empty (apart from startup.mp4) isn't that a bit weird ? I think my solution lies in locating the original startup screen but I cannot find it anywhere.

 

This is something else I discovered. If I overwrite 'startup' in the sounds folder and then start BigBox, the Startup.wav gets recreated. Could that be a clue ?

Thank you, i am talking BigBox. I tried what you suggested but I still only get the original SplashScreen. If I could only locate that, I would probably be on my way

Hi, I am a noob but I have spent the last 3 hours trying to change the SplashScreen to no avail. Read all I could find on the forums but no luck. watched youtube tutorials etc.

So I have downloaded a custom theme and renamed it to startup ( I also tried it with Startup) and placed the file in the root of User/MyName/Launchbox/Videos

but the splash screen stays the same. I have also tried to copy that file to almost every other Launchbox folder I could find but still nothing changes.

So my question is, what on earth am I doing wrong ? In which folder should i place this mp4 file and what other files should be present in that folder ?

Also what is the name of the original splashscreen, so I can try to locate that ?

thanks again, Peter

I am having trouble getting the vectrex  system to integrate in bigbox. I use ParaJve as the emulator and it works fine as stand alone. Mind you, i have just started with launchbox and still am going through all the forums.
