  1. Does anyone know where exactly where in the settings of RA's latest release it is that you can turn on and off any settings pertaining to softlists, if there is any?
  2. Your inspirational words have given me the strength needed to push on with this frivolous but driven task. These four games need to be playable once again on my setup or the universe is not aligned in my mind. Also, as I get older the words "follow through" can't help but resonate differently.
  3. I will likely obsess over and continue to try and get it back up and running in RA simply because I know it is possible from having previously done it. Though, if I end up quitting I will give your suggestion a try; thanks for the info.
  4. This is a very late reply. Thanks for the cool overlays. I have come back to this system after not having had it on my setup for years. After previously having had it working and helping other getting it working about five years ago I now am unable to get the damn system to work, haha.
  5. Thanks for the suggestion. I just joined Discord as I have never used it before. It looks damn confusing how it is laid out but hopefully I will get an answer there; thanks again.
  6. Hello, I have downloaded exoDOS and it is located on a separate internal drive (G drive) to where my already existing LB is located (C drive). I have: Downloaded exoDOS 6.04 Run Setup eXoDOS.bat (on G drive) Copied all of the data, manuals, music, images and videos folders from G-drive to my LB location Downloaded Link Shell Extension Created folders in my LB directory called eXoDOS\eXo\eXoDOS Right clicked on the 7,666 games in is G:\eXoDOS\eXo\eXoDOS Right clicked in the folders in step five and selected 'drop as symbolic link' After all of this, when I attempt to launch a MS-DOS games on LB it says 'The ROM file you've specified does not exist.' The reason why I am wanting to leave everything in G drive is because I don't want to add over half a terabyte more to my C drive. Would anyone please be so kind as to tell me what I have done incorrectly? Thank you in advance. EDIT: I saw in a post on Reddit someone said you have to move Parents.xml and Platforms.html from eXoDOS's Data folder into Launchbox's Data folder, so I did that and I still get the 'The ROM file you've specified does not exist' message.
  7. I have always used the Nostalgia videos, but am switching over to these because they are simply so beautiful! @viking I know you have lots of requests already, but may I request platform videos for Quake and Doom as I use those RA cores as their own platforms on my setup as I play lots of variants of the two games? Thank you very much.
  8. Have you ever played something like SFII on the Genesis and the six buttons on the face of the controller worked as the three kick and three punch actions, instead of using shoulder buttons? Do you remember, for your Hori controllers, under Settings > Inputs > RetroPad Binds > Port 1 Controls, did you have Digital to Analog Type set to None?
  9. It certainly does feel good to get an issue sorted with something you love, like the gaming setup. Now, I will just have to work out how to map my controls and I will be all set!
  10. Don't apologise, I really appreciate you trying to help. You are right, I did get it! It turns out that EmuMovies will let you create a password with special characters in it; however, LaunchBox does not seem to like those special characters. I changed my EmuMovies password to one that only contains lowercase and uppercase letters along with numbers, and LaunchBox accepted that immediately.
  11. In LaunchBox's Data folder, there is a file, Settings.xml. In that file it did have my EmuMovies username and password, I deleted those lines, and it did delete my credentials from the importer, but unfortunately, not the options menu, which is where my old credentials are stored. I have looked in every folder in Launchbox and simply cannot find anywhere else that has the EmuMovies username and password; thanks very much for the suggestion, though. Hopefully, someone might read this and know somewhere else where those details are stored.
  12. I have the latest, up-to-date version of LaunchBox and I am having issues with logging into EmuMovies, I think I know what the issue is, but I am unable to find a fix for it. In LaunchBox, I go to Tools > Option > Integrations > EmuMovies and it has my login details stored. The thing is, I have recently changed my EmuMovies password, but LaunchBox is auto-filling the username/password fields with my old password. When I type in my new password and press 'test,' I am logged in; however, as soon as I close that window, it reverts back to my old password; therefore, when I go to import new or update existing games, I am unable to login to EmuMovies even if typing in my new password because LaunchBox's options refuse to hang on to my new password. Is there a way to wipe my old EmuMovies credentials from LaunchBox so I can type the new ones in and then hopefully it will save the new and correct ones?
  13. I already had it in PC mode. The other switches on the controller I have set on DP and R3-L2/L3-L1. I turned on my PC this morning and tried SMB via the Nestopia core and it was working. D-pad, select, start, A and B were all functioning as they should; B was mapped to the X button on the controller and A was mapped to the O, which is perfect. Then I tried a Game Boy game via the Gambette core and nothing was responding. I closed RA and opened the same Game Boy game again and still nothing. Then, I opened the game a third time and everything was working; however, B and A were mapped to the X and Triangle buttons, which isn't comfortable. This is a great example as this is where a lot of my difficulties lay, even now that the controller seems to be recognised, mapping controls in RA have always been a thorn in my side. When you have a core opened and go to Quick Menu > Controls > Port 1 Controls and press Enter to go into a specific button, like the A button, there does not appear to be any way to press a button on your controller to map that button, it just has a menu to select from. Am I missing something? Thank you for your replies, I appreciate the help very much.
  14. Thank you very much for the reply. How do I put it in Xinput mode? I just read something that said a controller in dinput mode shows as a USB Gamepad and xinput shows as an XBOX Controller. I only have my Hori plugged into my PC and in Device Manager, it shows a controller as XBOX 360, does that mean it is already in xinput mode? Also, the home button that has a Playstation symbol on it does not register at all in JoyToKey, that never happened previously when I used to use this controller a long time ago.
  15. I have 2 Hori FC controllers and I am having such a difficult time trying to get them to work with RA on my Windows 10 PC that I am about to throw them out the window. I see in RA's autoconfig folder that there are files for various Hori controllers; however, RA just seems to want very little to do with them. I have JoyToKey and DS4 on my PC, but DS4 only recognises one of the controllers, and that one is listed in the Device Manager as an XBOX controller. The home button presses the WIndows + G keys which opens the gamebar, which is very frustrating as I therefore cannot seem to program that as esc to close games with. Would anyone please be so kind as to tell me where I might even start to try and get all this working? Thank you in advance.
