SentaiBrad Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 You can try View -> Arrange By -> LaunchBox Games Database ID. That might be the closest thing we have. Custom Filters might help too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredator Posted June 26, 2016 Author Share Posted June 26, 2016 I see but, it doesn't show the "broken" info... Plus you can't filter on "broken" with custom filters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 No, that's why it's the closest thing we have. :P I believe this has been requested previously too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredator Posted June 26, 2016 Author Share Posted June 26, 2016 Ok, thanks I found a way, opening the launchbox.xml file with Access. It's not very convenient but all kind of filters are possible (like a database) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tseu Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 (edited) I don't find any launchbox.xml, but there is a XML by platform. @SentaiBrad are you sure this has been requested previously ? I don't find any bitbucket issue for this. We can mark a game as broken but with lots of games it's difficult to search those which are broken for trying to repair them (change emulator, get another version of the game, etc..). We just need a filter "Status" with 2 possible choices "broken/works" Edited April 9, 2017 by Tseu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 It's been requested many times, for sure. I don't know if there is a ticket, and if you really can't find one them just make one. There also isn't a LaunchBox.xml anymore, they were split in to many XML's quite a while ago. They're all in that Data folder. You can mark games broken, and I think the best solution would be to bake that in to the Audit screen where you can mark, edit and un mark broken games, but there isn't an easy way to currently show all broken games. I am also confident there are Audit related tickets as well. Just remember, there is A LOT for Jason to do and he is one man, so sometimes things might take a while if not a lot of people are asking for it.

I've found a ticket : https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/715/broken-game-filter I understand that Jason is one man so for those who wish, please vote for this ticket Thank you.

SentaiBrad Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Yea, there isn't one in the Audit screen, that's where I think it makes the most sense though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackmeat Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I am going to guess this never went anywhere since Happy New Year, it is 2022 and I am noticing that I cannot filter by "broken" status and figured I was just an idiot missing something simple.

Lordmonkus Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 In the audit tool window one of the columns you can sort by is "broken". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Broken" has been added to the audit screen for quite some time now. Just Audit all games or per platform and sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackmeat Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Ok, thank you. I couldn't seem to locate it. I'll check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Beats Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Pretty sure we added a "Broken" column to list view as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackmeat Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Yes, it is added to the list view as well. I was more or less looking for a filter so my library would only show the broken ones, but this as a workable solution will do. I didn't find it until the fine folks here chimed in. Just the posts about this issue were stale, same with bitbucket, so it didn't appear to be resolved. Thank you, and thanks to those above as well for pointing me in the right direction.
