Looking for settings to setup AppleWin. The link at the beginning of the topic is dead.

Hopefully this will help you out. The following setup works for me, using AppleWin with disk-based games.

In "Default Command Line Parameters" use: -f -d1

Also, if you want to use the 'esc' key to exit, enter the following in "Running Script"

; This section closes AppleWin when pressing Escape
 $Esc::
 {
     Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}}
 }

Thank you. Stupid question, does AppleWin need to be in the Launchbox\Emulators folder or can it be anywhere? I assume it doesn't auto install like RetroArch did when importing ROMS.

It really shouldn't matter where it's located, as long as you set up Launchbox properly and put the proper location in the "Application Path" within the emulator configuration

Edit*

I have figured out how to successfully run ODYEMU, the Magnavox 1 emulator from within Launchbox, and it was absurdly simple.

Set DosBox as the chosen platform emulator, then it's a matter of creating a .bat for each game. Inside each one write ODYEMU tennis.mo1 for example, and that's all you need, the games will boot right up. Can't believe I was stumped on that. Hope this helps anyone who wants the Odyssey working, (it's totally not worth it :p)

Also the games are nothing but dots on a screen without the corresponding overlays. The game collection I have only includes one overlay, though there is a way to make your own with a utility named BMPTORLE.

Some time it would like to set this up as well. Getting the overlays to work seems like a bit of a challenge, especially when combined with complex shaders with bezels, such as Duimon's HSM shader presets. Will have to try.
