[Taito type X]

Hi @damageinc86,

 

Yeah there are "sets". The Taito X games are not traditional emulator paired with roms though. They are setup like pc games. Each one has it's own emulator executable and config settings. You have to set them up individually. 

For controller settings though I recommend setting up one game and copying the config file to all the other games in your set. They you don't have to go through controller setup every time.

I think I setup a fake emulator and then manually pointed to each game.exe executable in the set. 

That's the way I did it I don't update my software anymore. So the new versions of LB might be doing this differently now. 

For good tutorials look up colpipes1978 and simply austin.  

 

 

 

 

[Taito type X]

Hi @damageinc86, 

 

The TAITO X emulator is RH LOADER. 

The initial start up screen is red and black and says virus 

It's not a virus. I don't know why the developer made the software this way. 

There is an .INI file that you have to open to agree to the terms and then the warning goes away and the games work. 

You'll then need to run the "Game Loader Config" then do the following below:

Windows 10, "C: \ Users \ USER NAME \ AppData \ Roaming \ Game Loader All RH \ TTX.ini"
Windows XP, "C: \ Documents and Settings \ USER NAME \ Application Data \ Game Loader All RH \ TTX.ini"

-Open TTX.ini with notepad and modify this:

[Ignore]
Warning=agree

And then run the "Game Loader Installer"

 

[Taito Type X Samurai Shodown Resolution]

Hi @Rauzzman80 ,

I have another thread setting up RH LOADER.  

 

To get gameloader to exit properly I had to set all my controls using the typex_config_2.0 and jconfig depending on the game. You may only need to do one of these but do both is needed.

Copy the input.bin and typexconfig.bin in your "..\SV" folder to all your games so that all the controls are completely configured.

then to exit the emulator without any errors.

change the following

You'll then need to run the "Game Loader Config" then do the following below:

Windows 10, "C: \ Users \ USER NAME \ AppData \ Roaming \ Game Loader All RH \ TTX.ini"
Windows XP, "C: \ Documents and Settings \ USER NAME \ Application Data \ Game Loader All RH \ TTX.ini"

-Open TTX.ini with notepad and modify this:

[Ignore]
Warning=agree

Game Monitor =1

Hi, @discostu58, 

 

Unfortunately I cannot help you with this since I stopped updating the LB software around this time as I would have had to download a whole new Mame set.

[AHK SCRIPT "HOLD JOYSTICK BUTTON TO EXIT EMULATOR"]

Hi Ecco, 

What if you set both buttons to "MENU" and set the ahk to "EXIT EMULATOR" if you hold the button for 5 seconds or so. That way both functions should work. As in my example I used start. And Hold start to exit. 

cheers Bman

How do i specify this to only one joysticks button? I have a specific exit button on my cab Joy12 however for player 2 it is not an exit button it is actually a Menu button. Also have controllers and if I set it to just Joy12 then whatever is joy12 on the controllers exits the game while playing.. Please advise and thank you for your time in advance!

 

Hi Eccocade, 

JayJay wrote the scripts for me when I posted.  Maybe you could ask directly and see how you go.

[MAME GAMES DON'T LOAD AFTER UPDATE 9.8]

Just go to >Tools>Manage Emulators and edit Mame. You will see the default command line parameters box on the first tab. Delete -keyboardprovider dinput and test. 

If you are running a version that old that is likely the issue. The update added the paramenters -keyboardprovider dinput to the default command line. With old versions of Mame this will not work. Try removing it and see if things work again. If it does unfortunately you will either have to keep doing that work around or update your Mame and Roms. With new features being added to Launchbox I would recommend bringing your roms and emulators to more current states. 

 

this worked thanks

If you run a game directly in Mame (not using Launchbox) they still work correct?

If so, try going into Launchbox and turn off Startup screens globally (for all emulators) or just turn it off for Mame and see if the games launch. I would turn it off in the Launchbox and BigBox settings if you turn them off globally. 

Hi @Retro808, Thanks for getting back to me. Yes running the game directly through mame works perfectly and runs the game. Ok I will try turning off the startup screens. Although the 9.7 version of LB had startup screens and mame worked fine then. 

thanks in advance. 

[MAME GAMES DON'T LOAD AFTER UPDATE 9.8]

Hi @JoeViking245, 

I think version .158 it's old I know. I am happy to stick with the version I have since it's all working in previous versions on LB. I have all my other emulators working fine. I am looking for a solution to roll back the update. I installed LB 9.7 over the top of 9.8 and then LB would not initialize and then load at all.

So then I reinstalled update 9.8 and I am back where I started. 

Is there a clean rollback the update to an earlier version of LB?

 

 

 

 

 

[MAME GAMES DON'T LOAD AFTER UPDATE 9.8]

 

Hi @Retro808, 

The Mame emulator does not load the games. I get a launchbox loading screen and a launchbox game over screen. I have since tried to rollback the update by installing version 9.7 setup over the top of the 9.8 install. At this point Launchbox and bigbox doesn't load at all.

[Daphne Auto Script help!]

Good Morning,

Ok so I used this tutorial from Harrison Hacks.

It does show how to configure input in daphne loader.

As far as xinput not working, you could use a keyboard mapper like joy2key or antimicro to map keyboard to your joypad

or try https://www.x360ce.com/ to emulate a xinput controller. I use this method a lot.

 

cheers

If you are using an xinput joystick you can use x360ce to interface between the direct input emulator and the joystick.

[How to handle alternate titles and ports?]

Hi G,

I think I can answer part of your question,

 

When you import MAME roms, you scrape media and there is a option to select region of NORTH AMERICA

 

I am not sure what the other options are MAME typically have USA, AISA, JAPAN & WORLD REGIONS

[Controller issues]

Hi Do you mean you have the xbox one controller synced to windows 10?

I would recommend making sure the joystick control panel is recognizing your controller first. Preferably even connect the controller to your pc using the usb cable. Then see if BB saves your config with the controller connected via usb.

From there you will know if BB is struggling with the controller because it is connected via bluetooth.

I would also update all the controller drivers for windows 10
