Crush Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 I created a Request here: https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/2744/right-click-custom-menu-on-platforms for the addition of custom right-click menu on Platforms. That way we could display controller images, extra info on the platform, run JoytoKey or other utilities before launching a game, or an AHK script related to this Platform. Quote
StuDentBR Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) Tectoy (a Brazilian company that produce and distribuite sega's consoles and games here in Brazil) is about to launch a new mega drive (also known as genesis) and they were trying to launch a console as accurate as possible, but i saw a lot of people on youtube comaplaining about the sound that's not accurate and so on... So i thought if the emulators are much diferent from real hardware... Here's a video of a gameplay recorded with the "new" mega drive... That being said I would like to you guys comparing the most accurate emulators to the Real consoles, audio, video, FPS\frametime and so on Edited May 1, 2017 by StuDentBR 1 Quote
dylanchau Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) Hey Jason, I think this is a good idea to implement a loading bar or a loading percentage when launching a game in big box. This way we wont be wondering how long it takes to load a big file game. Please put one in ! Edited May 2, 2017 by dylanchau 2 Quote
SentaiBrad Posted May 2, 2017 Author Posted May 2, 2017 Yes, but most people don't want to add on an extra step that complicates things. 1 Quote
Casper Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 The setup of Dynamic Marquees on 2nd screen, would be nice..... Quote

Also, again people, this is the YouTube talk thread, not the LaunchBox talk thread. Creating a regular single thread or using the BitBucket is the normal way to talk about and request LaunchBox / Big Box stuff. Quote
SentaiBrad Posted May 3, 2017 Author Posted May 3, 2017 That's a much better suggestion, even if a bit insane. LOL Quote
cleverest Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 Cowbell is always applicable and helps reduce insanity. Quote
Tommy1981 Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 I just bought a hp omen gaming computer and looking to set this up this weekend. Does launch box support multiple displays? Would like to be able to display move lists on arcade games and level maps. It would be nice doing this from one program. Quote
SentaiBrad Posted June 30, 2017 Author Posted June 30, 2017 Yes and no. It does, but not in the way you want it to. Big Box has Marquee support, which can put information on the second screen, but you'd either need to make a workaround or edit together a theme to specifically take certain advantage of your second monitor.

Thank you for the quick response. Maybe someone with more skills and experience doing themes will see this post and feel the urge to do this. It would be great to have game guides on one screen while playing the game on another. If someone wants to go all out. 3 display support would be awesome as well. Move lists on one screen and game walkthroughs on another while playing the game on the main Screen. Thanks again. Edited July 1, 2017 by Tommy1981 Quote
cleverest Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 A video on how to fix Launchbox from crashing every 30-200 seconds Windows 10 creator update... when uninstalling and reinstalling all Visual C++ packages does not fix it... I don't use launchbox anymore because of this, it super sucks...I may have to downgrade my OS on my computer to make this work if there is no better fix... which is something I'd really love to avoid!

I just used windows "media creation tool" to install a fresh copy of Windows 10 on my HP Omen and then installed launch box. I used a 3.0 usb to do this and it took less than an hour. I never did install any of the c++ packages and Launch Box/ Big Box works great. Quote
Lordmonkus Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Have you tried reinstalling video drivers and direct x as well as the Visual C++ runtimes ? There have been people who have reported these things can fix tings with the Creators Update. Keep in mind that the CU is still not an officially available update yet, it is still a beta and I just read last night that it is going into a big bug squash phase so hopefully that will fix some issues with it.

Yes, I've done all of this. (I'm a PC technician by trade), but nothing is working sadly....the CU update was forced on me as an official update actually, so didn't fight it when it started scheduling the install automatically...I certainly didn't sign up for a beta version of Windows...YIKES...I know better than that... Hopefully, something gets done to fix it, so I can enjoy my collection and continue to refer others to LB. Thanks for the response. Quote
Lordmonkus Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Yeah, I fortunately have not been forced into a Creators Update yet but I know that day is coming. Quote
