I agree, I added two TurboTwist 2 Arcade Spinner Controls to my X-Arcade Tankstick with the 7' wheels and they were SO much fun. They were a little expensive all up but the quality is fantastic and really enhance the arcade experience.

I think because you said such kind words he should give it to you for free.

Will games retain Command-Line Parameters when value is changed?
flatuswalrus replied to flatuswalrus's topic in Noobs
I went to Launchbox > Data > Platforms > Commodore Plus 4 (PRG).xml and there is no <CommandLine /> in the document/file. I searched for "<CommandLine />", "<CommandLine>", "CommandLine" and "Command Line" but nothing. I also searched the "Platforms.xml" file in the Data folder and nothing. Am I looking in the wrong place?- 17 replies

Darn it, so you ultimately have to have them seperate in LB/BB? Is there no way to do what I want to do at all? Thanks for replying.- 17 replies

Hi, as you can see via the photo below I have the Commodore Plus 4 which also includes the C16 and C116 broken up into three separate platforms due to having three different ROM files which each require their own Command-Line Parameter. My question is, if I go to the two platforms that have (PRG) and (TAP) at the end, highlight all the games, go to the bulk edit wizard and change their version value to just Commodore Plus 4 so they are all lumped together will all the games that were originally under (PRG) and (TAP) retain the Command-Line Parameter assigned to them in the Manage Emulators 'tool'? It is my understanding that it does, though I just wanted to make sure before doing so. Thank you all in advance.

Thanks very much, that did the trick and I'll know for future ones now.

Sorry but whereabouts in LaunchBox do these files get placed?
-
I use the exact same script but have "4" instead of "Esc" as "4" is the right flipper button on my X-Arcade Tankstick and I also have my PS4 controller home button mapped as "4" through Controller Companion. Then when "Esc" ispressed it just exits the game in Pinball FX2 back into the menu.

Just wanted to say a big thanks. Due to this thread I got this up and running in no time, and lookin' mighty pretty too. It is a heck of a lot of fun.

Mod Constantly Deleting Help Requests
flatuswalrus replied to shinra358's topic in Website/Forum Support
That is weird because in my short time here I have had the complete polar opposite experience to that description. -
Just wondering if anyone has had much of a go at the Philips VG5000 with the DCVG5K emulator? MAME will get the command-screen (or whatever you call it) open but won't seem to go any further despite typing in the correct command. Once you get used to stuff like the keyboard layout (which I haven't fully grasped yet) like typing "Q" instead of "A" on your normal keyboard to type "CLOAD" to load a cassette it isn't too bad. Whilst it is nothing to write home about there are definitely some fun little games to play. You can chose English from the options too.

Hmm, that is weird. I installed 8.2 again and now it is back to the latest beta. I just went and unchecked the option in LaunchBox to update to betas.I just deleted the two latest beta installer .exe files from the updates folder and installed 8.2 once again. Now once again it is all working fine so hopefully it will not somehow automatically revert to the latest beta after changing the options in LauchBox even though I know it does not do it automatically as it asks you if you want to install the latest beta.
-
Even though I reverted back to the last stable version and it worked initially it is now not working again and now it is saying Retroarch's cores are missing and in the Manage Emulators it does not show the full command line anymore: I know you said this is a known issue but just thought I would share in case mine were acting slightly different and if there is something wrong with it still doing this after installing a previous stable version.
-
Okay, thanks for your reply. I reverted back to the previous stable version after reading how you can do so here. After which the problem was fixed.

I just up upgraded to the latest 8.3-beta-2 and got the following when I tried to open Manage Emulators, then open an emulator from my list: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. App: LaunchBox Version: 8.3-beta-2 Type: System.NullReferenceException Site: Void (Unbroken.LaunchBox.Desktop.Forms.EmulatorForm) Source: LaunchBox at (EmulatorForm ) at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Desktop.Forms.EmulatorForm.AddCoresFromApplicationStartupPath() at (EmulatorForm , Object , EventArgs ) at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Desktop.Forms.EmulatorForm.field_Changed(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnTextChanged(EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.set_Text(String value) at System.Windows.Forms.TextBoxBase.set_Text(String value) at System.Windows.Forms.TextBox.set_Text(String value) at (EmulatorForm ) at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Desktop.Forms.EmulatorForm.LoadValues() at Unbroken.LaunchBox.Desktop.Forms.EmulatorForm.EmulatorForm_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.OnLoad(EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.OnCreateControl() at System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateControl(Boolean fIgnoreVisible) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateControl() at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmShowWindow(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.WmShowWindow(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam) Recent Log: 12:19:10 PM Music.Pause Start 12:19:10 PM Music.Prepare Start 12:19:10 PM Music.Kill Start 12:19:10 PM Music.Kill Finished 12:19:10 PM Music.NotifyTrackList Start 12:19:10 PM Music.NotifyTrackList Invoke 12:24:30 PM Music.Pause Start 12:24:30 PM Music.Prepare Start 12:24:30 PM Music.Kill Start 12:24:30 PM Music.Kill Finished 12:24:30 PM Music.NotifyTrackList Start 12:24:30 PM Music.NotifyTrackList Invoke 12:25:10 PM Exception I do not know if this is directly because of the version upgrade/change or something else but I have never had it before so I would assume the upgrade/change? Now all my Command Line Parameters have disappeared: I freakin' hope it ain't permanent as I had a TON in there I would have to reenter. Is there a way to either fix this or transfer back to the previous Launchbox version?

My custom Big Box videos/logos for the SEGA MD/Gen
flatuswalrus replied to flatuswalrus's topic in Collections and Builds
Haha, yeah there are quite a few systems there. I do like my video games. I am not saying I will not add more but for now I am more concentrating on the artwork side of things and making everything look all pretty like. Also, getting everything up and running of course. I would say probably about 70% of all that is running. -
Here is a video of some custom videos and platform clear logos I have made for the SEGA Mega Drive / Genesis which is my favorite console. I like to split some of the systems up into various regions and categories etc. Number 1 and 4 in the list are the standard ones created by @viking and the rest I did myself. The first minute of the video is scrolling down to the MD / Gen. The regions and categories are: SEGA Genesis SEGA Mega Drive (Brazil) SEGA Mega Drive (China) SEGA Mega Drive (Europe) SEGA Mega Drive (Japan) SEGA Mega Drive (Prototypes) SEGA Mega Drive (SEGA Game Toshokan) SEGA Mega Drive (Sonic Hacks) SEGA Mega Drive (SOR Hacks) SEGA Mega Drive (Translations) SEGA Mega Drive (Unlicensed) I have made other custom videos and the likes for other platforms but will show it all off when I have completely finished, probably in fifty years. The video is unlisted on YouTube so if there is any problems viewing it let me know and I will change it.

SEGA Saturn stuck on system settings menu in Mednafen
flatuswalrus replied to flatuswalrus's topic in Emulation
That is great to hear, I am glad it worked for you so easily. I also use DS4 and have found it to be of great help along with Controller Companion. -

flatuswalrus replied to flatuswalrus's topic in Emulation
It can be daunting and frustrating at first but like most things once you learn it is pretty easy and good. I like how for whatever system you emulate with it that it automatically has the buttons mapped/configured with the XBOX/PS controllers (if you have one). -

flatuswalrus replied to flatuswalrus's topic in Emulation
I know you said you don't use Retroarch, does that mean you do not have it on your computer at all? I was against it for a while as I found it to be a pain in the butt but I came around to it. If you already have those two BIOS files you just place them in the Retroarch system folder and download the core, that should be it. After trying both I found Retroarch easier, though I am not trying to talk you out of Mednafen. -

BINGO! I had to change the core name to mednafen_saturn_libretro. After that along with the BIOS files being present they all work. Thank you very much for your help gentlemen. -

Okay, so -L "cores\beetle_saturn_libretro.dll" and both BIOS say they are present and still no go. I am at a loss but will keep trying. -

I am missing the following:I am not asking where to get the BIOS files as that is naughty. Though, from what I do have below have I got them but they are just named incorrectly because I am unable to locate the files needed going by what Retroarch calls them:
