cleverest Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I'm going to try a fresh install of launchbox as a final attempt to fix this; hate losing my favorites though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Just to clarify CU is an official update the bug fix bash is for the cleverly name Fall Creator Update which is currently running on Insider Preview PC's like the one I'm typing this on.

Tommy1981 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Can you guys add a button on the games missing box art to download individual box art? Maybe by the refresh button. This would help out alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lessthanzero33 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I am not sure if this has been asked but how about a rom downloader option?, sorry if this has been asked already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 This won't be done due to legal issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But its still a grey area and the creators of launchbox cant take any chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much anyone would love this built into a front end it would never be possible. To many legal issues and emulation is already frowned upon in many areas, although getting better. There are tons of options to download roms from websites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lessthanzero33 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 It has been built into a front end which is called "RomFlix" i was just hoping it could be done with BB because it would be the Front End to end all front ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Yes, of course it is possible to do but it won't be done for Launchbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lessthanzero33 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Thanks lordmonkus for your reply. I was just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 You could even do it yourself if you know how to code up a plugin for it, you could pull roms from the archive. But don't expect it to be hosted here on this site, it would be a major legal liability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natemac00 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Would it be possible to add the ROM filename to the list view? I'd like be able to search by ROM filename some time when i'm not sure it was imported correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleverest Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Perhaps a video on how to search for GENRE/TYPE of games in the regular (non-bigbox) view in Launchbox...sometimes I want to just see RPGS, or Platform games across one or more platforms..takes too long to get there in BigBox...

I guess the reply should be "lessthanzero" chance. Haha. Oops, I laughed at my own joke there. That "RomFlix" image you mention is free so is not likely to be pursued by the Authorities, whereas LaunchBox is a commercial program and the Authorities would probably crash on it like a ton of bricks if such a feature was added. That's how I see it, which is just conjecture of course. Edited September 16, 2017 by JamesBond@ge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exequiel3k Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 (edited) Hey, I’d say for convenience sake in BigBox to have any controller plugged into the Pc be able to control the navigation instead of having to assign and be constrained using the same one even when changing of controllers for different plateform games.. thx for all your hard work Edited October 16, 2017 by Exequiel3k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 In BB there is an option to enable all controllers and then all your controllers should be able to interact with the UI. Its under Options>Controllers just check the use all controllers checkbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
