Hello! Don't know if this has been mentioned here yet but i found a cool piece of software that allows resizing, borders/bezels, and shader effects to almost any game. I use it on quite a few of my games. The app is called ArcCabView. Here's a description from the creator: ArcCabView is a ReShade's shader made by Ducon2016 and Aubrel to display your game (nearly all your games) just as you want. It's still mainly designed to display arcade oriented games in cabinets and that's why its now named like that. In some case a launcher can be provided too in order to be more friendly to use. Using this shader you will have full control of your game display. The functions will be explain bellow, but quickly you can : - Rotate the game display in any Orientation without having to change your screen orientation. - Manage completely the game Ratio when ingame and when not ingame. - Resize, Move de display when ingame, when not ingame and also just the internal and external part of a defined area. - Crop some parts or a ratio defined area of the game and choose to display them or not. - Curve the full display or just a defined part of the game - Add a CRT effect with Bloom, different dot aspects, vertical or horizontal scanlines,... - Add a Frame with Screen Reflection around the full display or just around the defined area. - Add a Bezel over or under the full display and manage its size. It can follow the game settings or not. - Add a Background image or display a game blur mirror and change the Background Color and Brightness. - Add an Overlay image over the defined game area. - Add conditions to test in order to get yours effects and arts only when you want and where you want in the game. More than that, for Pinball games you can also : - Add a Backglass image with or without Grill and catch a part of the game to show in it. - Move and resize the DMD display where you want (and change its color) - Resize and move the table and change its perspective. - Manage the brightness ingame of these different parts. Here's the link for the download and more information: http://www.emuline.org/topic/2598-arccabview-display-your-arcade-games-just-as-you-want/

Hello, I seem to have been having a little trouble with my X-Arcade and BigBox. When I open BIgbox after shutting my PC down, Bigbox won't detect the X-Arcade Tankstick unless I move the mode switch over one notch and back to the original position. It is set to the XInput setting(Tri-Mode upgrade board). After about a few seconds the joystick works perfectly. It only gives me this issue if I shut down the computer. I've had this issue across many versions, just decided to ask if anyone might have a solution. Thanks in advance. The stick works fine in all games. No other joysticks connected to PC

I can confirm that this version has installed on my NVidia Shield without any issues. Thanks @Jason Carr for the speedy fix! When I get a chance I will add some roms.

The new beta loads faster and works better on my GPD XD Plus than 6. Thanks Jason! Hopefully I can figure out the whole NVidia Shield issue.

I'm sorry but I followed the above steps and received the same result..

Looks like beta 6 is doing the same thing☹️Here's what I have gathered so far: After installing the app(either internal or external) it boots up and asks for storage permission. After I grant it the app permission it immediately crashes. I believe this is right at the creating folders message at the bottom(that may not be the exact words, it closes so fast its hard to tell.) When I re-open the app is when I get the read-only file system error and the object reference error. These messages appear at the "initialing folders.." step. The folder "com.unbrokensoftware.launchbox" is created in Android/data/ folder but no LaunchBox folder is created on the root of the storage or in the NVIDIA_SHIELD folder. I tried disconnecting my external drive but receive the same messages and outcome. What I did notice is that the Shield has a section for "special app access" and one of the option is to "Modify system settings" within that section you can choose which apps can have permissions. Unfortunately, Launchbox isn't listed but other third party apps are. Maybe in a future release a option could be added there so that the app can bypass something to enable write access. Not sure if this works or not.

I have beta 4 I believe. Can you please send me the link to beta 6? Maybe that might make a difference. Nvidia Shield info- Model number P2571, Version 9, Serial version: 8.2.3(32.6.518.0)
-
Yeah, the same situation I'm having now. I've been chatting with Jason about it. Hopefully we can figure out a solution here.

I just tried that also..No dice. I even tried to copy the launchbox data folders from my phone and place it inside the NVIDIA_SHIELD folder on both storage places and on the root of both storage places..
-
the app is installed on my external storage. I checked and the nvidia shield folder is in my internal storage. I even tried to switch my app to internal. Same errors...
-
Unfortunately, the LaunchBox app never created this folder..
-
I am getting a "read only file system" error on my NVidia Shield TV(2015 model). If I click OK, I then get a "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error. I tried: Installing to both internal and external storage Re-download the apk. Making sure storage permission is enabled in the app. PS: The app installs and works on my Samsung Galaxy S10 plus.

Thank for the advise. That didn't fix it either. I submitted a post in Troubleshooting. Its something to do with my setup somehow. No custom themes show up. As soon as I get it sorted I will try this theme out.

Hello, I'm not sure what's the issue or how long. I just noticed after trying to use Coinops Redux theme that I am unable to get any themes I've downloaded to show up. If install any theme from BigBox's menu they install and apply fine. At one point and time custom themes were working fine. I have 11.7 installed. Things that I have tried so far: unblock zip file before placing in Launchbox/Themes folder. made sure that no themes were nested inside another folder. tried multiple themes tried to see if I could change to one of them in the "views" settings of BigBox restored a few backups from months ago rebooted PC disabled antivirus software
