  1. @bundangdon I've made a few small changes to the "BoxesContentView.xml" view to prevent game titles from being cut off and look a bit better. Here are the changes: <!-- TITLE REGULAR TEXT --> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Title}" Foreground="{Binding ForegroundBrush}" TextWrapping="Wrap" TextTrimming="None" Margin="{Binding TextMargin}" Grid.Row="1" TextAlignment="{Binding TextAlignment} " MaxHeight="{Binding MaxTextHeight}" /> <!-- SUBLINE REGULAR TEXT --> <TextBlock Visibility="{Binding SublineVisibility}" Text="{Binding Description}" Foreground="{Binding FadedForegroundBrush}" FontSize="12" TextWrapping="NoWrap" TextTrimming="CharacterEllipsis" Margin="0,0,0, 0" Grid.Row="2" TextAlignment="{Binding TextAlignment}" /> Could you consider adding these small changes for future revisions? I think it looks much better this way, really. I'm waiting for your opinion
  2. Thank You!!!!
  3. Hi @bundangdon!!! Are you going to update this theme to include the latest changes in Launchbox version 13.3? Thank you so much.
    My favourite theme since years. Thanks for keeping it updated @bundangdon!!!
  4. Thanks for keeping this theme updated!!!!
  5. Thanks I solved it !!!
  6. Hello, I want to move the roms from one of my platforms to another location. The problem is that on this platform the roms are not in ZIP format. Each rom is located in a subfolder with its name and inside this folder is the .cue and .bin file. The problem is that if I use the wizard to change the path of my roms I can only choose the top level and when importing the path is not correct, since the files are inside subfolders. What can I do to move this platform to another location without having to re-import the games one by one? Thank you.
  7. Hi @viking, congratulations on this wonderful theme. Would it be possible to disable the animation of the game details that appears on the right every time you change the game in the list? For me it would be much better if the right part with the game details was always visible and that only the game details themselves changed each time you go to the next one in the list. The game box image appears immediately when you switch from one game to the next, but the details take time to appear due to the entrance animation. I think it would be better to leave the details always visible. Is it possible to do this? Thanks a lot.
  8. Totally agree with your comment. I don't understand why those of us who speak a language other than English are excluded from having the possibility of integrating other languages in the Launchbox database. It would be as simple as enabling complementary languages and the community itself contributing its translations. So simple and so far from reality.

    Big Details

    Thank you very much for your answer @faeran. For me it is very important to be able to see the largest number of covers when I am making changes or modifying the ones that are not downloaded correctly. With my previous theme it was easy to open the side panel when I needed it and be able to see if it contained the images, videos and other extra elements that can only be seen by accessing these options. Anyway Faeran, I see that this theme is not very comfortable for all those like me who use Launchbox to organize their game library. The fact that the images or video do not appear directly in the top menu makes it very difficult to update or modify the games in the library. This theme is really wonderful if your library is 100% configured and you don't need to touch many things, but if I'm honest I spend much more time in Launchbox than in BigBox because I try to make each of my games have all their art up to date and for that I need a comfortable interface to work with. Finally, I would like to tell you that on many occasions when I try to play a video of one of my games, when I press the play button, it does not play. The only solution I find is to click on one of the images in that game and then press play again on the video. This way it does reproduce. This doesn't happen 100% of the time but it does fail 30-40% of the time you try to play the video the first time. Thank you again for your great contribution to this community. A hug from Spain.
  10. Hi @faeran, I have written this myself in the download file for this theme but I think this is the place to talk about theme suggestions. Could you consider adding a small button at the top to be able to hide or show the game information? I see that the possibility of showing the icons when hovering over the games has disappeared and sometimes I would like to be able to see a greater number of games at the same time by hiding the game information at the top. Apart from this, another thing that I think would be positive is the possibility of displaying long game titles on 2 lines. This is something that I have seen that implements the Steamy theme allowing to fully read the name of the games with a long title and not cutting with (...) I think that with these two improvements it would definitely be the best theme ever created for LaunchBox in my opinion. Thank you very much for your great work and everything you contribute to this community. A hug.

    Big Details

    Hello @faeran, first of all my congratulations for this great work. I only have two questions that I would like to be able to solve: 1 - Would it be possible not to shorten long titles by adding a second line of text if necessary? Long titles are now cut off with (...) 2 - I know that your theme is designed to always have the game information visible at the top, but sometimes it is better to hide the game information to be able to see more games on the screen. Would it be possible that when hovering over the game cover the information icon would appear so that pressing it would activate the game information at the top? I have activated the option to show icons when hovering over games, but it seems that in this theme this function does not work or is deactivated. The only way to hide game information is through the Launchbox settings menu which makes it very inconvenient. Thank you very much and congratulations for this great work. Edit: Would it be possible to activate the details of the game by pressing the middle mouse button? I think it would be a good option to be able to activate or deactivate the details of the game and to be able to have a broader view of the games when necessary. Launchbox has the option to show / hide game details with the key combination ctrl + T. Could this key combination be assigned to the middle mouse button? Another solution would be to add a game details toggle button to the bottom bar. Thank you @faeran.
  12. The Emumovies server overload problem was caused by changes in the API implementation, but I daresay this is no longer happening right now. If so, the FTP and Emumovies Sync services would continue to have problems today and yet they work perfectly. The only thing that hasn't worked for weeks is the Launchbox synchronization service with Emumovies and this, according to Circo, no longer depends on it but on the implementation of the new API by Launchbox. What I really would like is for someone responsible for Launchbox to say how the situation is at the moment, if they think they are going to be able to solve the problem in the short term or if they are finally going to leave us without the Emumovies service within Launchbox. The truth is that the latter would not surprise me seeing other decisions that have been made during these years with the development of Launchbox. Of course it would be appreciated if someone told us how all this is going to end to give us an idea. All the best.
  13. Unfortunately I have reset my password on Emumovies and nothing has changed. There is no way to connect to Emumovies to download content from Launchbox.
  14. Great Job @flatuswalrus!! Would it be possible to make the videos for the mini consoles (genesis mini, nes mini, snes mini and neo geo mini)? These are the only systems for which there is no Nostalgia-style video. I think a lot of people would like to have them. Thanks for your great contribution !!
  15. Thank you very much for your answer Neil. It's a real shame because my whole system is based on Nostalgia videos and now it is impossible for me to include some new systems due to the lack of these videos. Well, these are the things that usually happen in the community. I guess there is no choice but to migrate to a different video system. Thank you.

  17. Hi! I'm trying to download a file from the forum and I get a message saying it can't be found. I'm talking about this file ->> https://forums.launchbox-app.com/files/file/1157-nostalgia-169-video-additions-set/ Could you upload this file again? I need to download some videos for my system. Thanks a lot
  18. Hello @faeran, is not that what I really want to know. What I want to know is which games from the Launchbox database are not in my games collection, that is, which games from the database are not installed on my system. Edit: Is there a file from the current Launchbox database that includes the game name and database ID? I have found within the Launchbox installation folder a game database file (xml) that includes the platform and game name, but does not include the database ID. If I had this information I could cross it with my game database file and compare the IDs to find out which ones are missing. The problem with game names is that the Launchbox database and my own database do not have the same names and it is difficult to know if a game is really the game it claims to be. With the information of the game ID there would be no problem in joining one list with the other. Does this Launchbox database xml exist? Greetings.
  19. Hi, is there a way to see a system's missing games compared to the LaunchBox database? Perhaps it would be a good option when auditing a system to show the list of games from the Launchbox database that are not available in your installation. Thanks.
  20. Hi all. First of all, I want to thank Jason as well as the rest of the creators of Launchbox / Bigbox for giving us the opportunity to users to be able to choose in some way the future of this wonderful program. I would also like to express my sadness at not seeing some options that are high on the wish list on Bitbucket and that have long been demanded by users. Options such as being able to have other Scraper sources (second position on Bitbucket) or see related games from other platforms (fifth position on Bitbucket) are not found in this survey and I don't think they will ever be found. It's a real shame, since I think these options would make Launchbox the frontend par excellence. Honestly, none of the options shown in this survey are of any interest to me, but I have decided to vote for the ones that seem less bad to me, even if they do not add anything to the frontend experience. I understand that the options most demanded by users have a high cost of work and that is why they are not put in the surveys, but it really is what most users want to see in Launchbox and I am sure that many like me would pay more money to see them implemented if this were the problem. Other options that are not so complex such as making the attraction mode not show certain platforms are not on the list either and although I am not a programmer I think that this would not be so complex to implement today by developers. Anyway, I think I speak on behalf of many users when I say that I would like to see features that provide good and practical functionalities within Launchbox and not so much minimal tweaks. Thanks again and good job.
  21. Hi @Retro808!! It actually works as you say. For it to work, you need to close Launchbox with the panel open at the new size. In this way, it maintains its size. If you open the panel, resize and close the panel and reopen it, the size is not maintained. It's what was happening to me. I opened the panel, changed the size, closed the panel and when I reopened it did not keep the size. The trick has been to close Launchbox with the panel open and its new size, in this way if it saves the changes. Thank you very much for your help. Now I do think I have the perfect theme.
  22. Hi @Mister Slimm I see that you have a lot of skills to modify Launchbox themes. Would you be able to solve this problem?
  23. HI @Mister Slimm, still having some issues adding this line. I think LBPlex is not compatible with badges.... It's a shame because it's my favorite theme. I guess I'll have no choice but to change the theme if I want the badges. Thanks for your kindly help.
