angelobodetti Posted April 21, 2016 Author Posted April 21, 2016 Can LaunchBox launch Fightcade? If so, has anyone done it? Quote
SentaiBrad Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 What is Fightcade? Is it a game? Even knowing nothing my answer would probably be yes it can run. Quote
angelobodetti Posted April 21, 2016 Author Posted April 21, 2016 FightCade is basically an emulator but it's a set of about 100 classic arcade games that it emulates and lets you play multiplayer online against people all over the world - its free - http://www.fightcade.com/. Its an .exe file. So would I load that into Launchbox as a PC game? I guess what I need is to Name it and get LaunchBox to open the .exe Quote
SentaiBrad Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 If you're launching Rom files add it as an emulator. If it's a single exe that launches games internally, use the Add button in the bottom right. Add the exe and information you want about it. You can also import it or drag and drop it, but you'll need to select an emulator then edit the use of emulation out later. So since it is 1 file, I would just manually add it. Quote
angelobodetti Posted April 22, 2016 Author Posted April 22, 2016 Thanks Brad - Got it imported. Any way to add the enter key into the default command line? Basically as soon as the program opens there is a little popup box that you just need to hit the enter key on before the full program loads. Is that something I could add into the default command line? Thank you! Quote
SentaiBrad Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 If the program has command line argument's documented you can look in there to see if they have an option to skip it, otherwise potentially AutoHotKey may be what you need to automate that. Quote
LuckyDay Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Bringing this topic back from the dead, interested to see if the user above had any luck getting this booting from Launchbox and the steps taken. Fightcade is an amazing program for anyone who wants to play MAME games multiplayer, would be great to be able to boot it from my machine. Quote
angelobodetti Posted November 28, 2016 Author Posted November 28, 2016 I got LaunchBox to load FightCade - But I cannot get it to launch specific game, just the program as a whole. Quote
LuckyDay Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Cool. I'll work on it and see if there's anything I can figure out. I guess the problem would be that there is a lobby you have to navigate, so just opening a rom isn't really something you do with this program. Mouse emulation while in the lobby interface might work. Quote
SentaiBrad Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 Does the program have any extra command line requirements? That's usually the first place I would look. Quote
