  1. I use my gamepad to exit games in almost all of my emulators. I play MAME the most and find it really irritating having to hit escape when I wanna quit a game. Is there any way to do it?

    Cheers :)

  2. I'm using LB Next. I have the cache set to maximum in the settings. It did help but I'm still getting slow downs. I'm interested in your hack, as long as it's not too complex and wouldn't possibly screw my LB install up. I take it you are using it?

  3. I recently transferred my LB from my SSD to a external HDD due to space issues. I knew access times would be a bit slower just not this slow! Is there any way I can force LB to cache all my images into memory as it loads/runs? I have 16gb onboard so space wouldn't be a issue. Cheers :)

  4. OK, Got ya. It's a AMD FX-8370 8 Core OC@ 4.3 Crazy how old games need so much power!

    Thing is I've seen vids of the problem games running OK in Mame on YouTube from a few years back so was convinced it was a bad rom or something.

    Anyway, thanks for yer help. I'll check out the mame forums. :)

  5. My system can play Far Cry 5 at ultra settings so I doubt that's the problem. A friend filled my HDD with Mame roms and he has the exact same problem. I emailed him and he said this....

    "I have noticed that in the mame gui the ridge racer rom says this game does not have a bios. Right im 100% sure i know what the problem its.....but 0% sure how to solve it..... the problem is that it defo isnt using the namcoc74.zip (bios) so its running on normal settings i think which arent good"

    Does this info help? I'm baffled!

    Thanks for your input :)

     

  6. Ridge racer 1 & 2, Cyber commando, Ace Driver, Alpine racer 2, Cyber cycles. These are just the ones I tested and every one is the same. The sound is messed up and gameplay seems slow. All my other roms play fine, no probs.

    I re-downloaded a few of the roms and tried latest MAME build, same issue. Weird how it's only Namco games.

    Really want to play these so any help would be great. Cheers :)

  7. Hi, I currently have Launchbox on my C drive, it's a 120 gb SSD and I'm running out of space. I've just bought a 1 tb external drive which I plan having all my roms on. I realise that all the media data, box covers, videos etc are stored in the lanchbox folder. My question is, will I have to move Launchbox over to the external drive or can I keep it on C and store the media data on the external? is this possible?

  8. I've imported a few playlists. All is well apart from the game images. I like my games displayed as boxart, like this....

    2074889249_Screenshot(6).thumb.png.76778770296cd0851ed8fc2ab9bb63be.pngIs there a way to show the game box art instead of game logos? If I press my controller button to cycle the image art the boxart doesn't show up and yet it works fine on my platforms/systems.

    Any ideas guys? :)

    Cheers :)

  9. Quick question. I've decided to keep a few of those playlists but have a little problem....

    I like my games showing as boxes on the platform page like this :-

    Cheers :)

  10. Hi guys, can someone explain what's happening here?

    I booted up Launchbox just now and for some strange reason a total of 18 systems have been added to my collection! Atari classics,Capcom classics, Capcom play system I & II, Cave, Daphne, Data East classics, etc, etc....

    Anyone know why this has happened and how to reverse it? I'm happy with my old list and want it back as before.

    Cheers :)

    I actually purposefully didn't implement clear logo backgrounds this time around because I just don't think they look all that great so small behind all the boxes. I can look into adding it in though; I didn't figure many people were using it.

    I'm not fully following here; can you explain? Are you comparing LaunchBox.Next to the original LaunchBox version (8.2)?

    Gotcha, I'll look into both. :)

    In launchbox when you click on file, game, cloud, view etc you can move your mouse left or right and each list opens. In Launchbox.Next you have to click to exit the list then click again to see the next option list. It's only a nitpick but it just feels better the old way.
