  1. Sorry but whereabouts in LaunchBox do these files get placed?
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. That is weird because in my short time here I have had the complete polar opposite experience to that description.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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?
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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).
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. This is the right Command-Like right?: -L "cores\beetle_saturn_libretro.dlll"
  18. 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:
  19. Yes I have let things get a bit out of hand and I feel I may cut it back in size. I have created quite a few custom platform videos for missing system etc so I might keep those one because I have put so much effort into them. Besides trying to complete the PS1, Dreamcast and Saturn I think I am done with adding, it will go on forever otherwise. I used to just have arcade games when using Hyperspin but as soon as I got Launchbox I went nuts, haha.
  20. Yeah, I guess that is where we have to each decide what we want it to be for us. I love the idea of having a monolithic collection but I want playability also. I have added a few systems that are not able to be played yet but I do not think I will go any further down that route. I need to start concentrating on getting more systems up and running as I have been too focused on the adding side of things myself lately.
  21. Directly from Mednafen, where it worked previously. I just tried it in Retroarch with the Yabause core and it did not work. I downloaded the Beetle_Saturn core but it does not appear in the core folder. There is a mednafen_saturn_libretro.dll in there but that one does not work. Out of the Retroarch ones Yabause is the only one that launches them, but into a black screen.
  22. All my Saturn games are .cue, will that make a difference? They have the corresponding .bin file with each .cue.
  23. I have not looked into this any further as I got sidetracked with other stuff but will definitely try again and when I do I will post here.
