Retrofrogg Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I have set up a few systems in LB - SNES, NES, Amstrad CPC and Neo Geo (AES). When I go to Big Box mode, I can scroll through these systems and they each have an image of the system. The Neo Geo (AES) has no image however. Is this expected behaviour? Thanks.

DOS76 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Did you name your platform Neo Geo AES and if so did you fill in the scrape as field to read SNK Neo Geo AES? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 here is a link to the DB showing the media that is available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Yea, the AES doesn't have images for the hardware yet on the database. It's actually got no images at all. You can grab a Clear Logo pack to insert in to your library manually, but there are a lot of systems that need media updates that will happen at some point. I like the Silver Ring Clear Logo pack myself if you want to use that: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retrofrogg Posted January 6, 2017 Author Share Posted January 6, 2017 Thanks folks. Surprising that a piece of software as polished as LB doesn't have images yet. Thanks for the link thought, I'll try adding them myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Well the Database is all community ran. We had a base to start off with, but we've severely expanded on it, enhanced it and we're trying to make it as feature complete as possible. Jason barely has enough time to get in all the features he wants, sadly, we don't have too much time to also populate the Database sometimes, with console images or game images. Someone was kind enough to make a thread with Metadata and Media for all of the consoles that were missing, and some consoles that had partial images or images that could be improved. Doing that though still takes time from Jason, or if Alex is around to help us but we don't want to ask too much of him as he donates his time.

Retrofrogg Posted January 6, 2017 Author Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) Fair enough SentaiBrad. Hopefully a future release will have images for all the available systems. I took a look at the Silver Ring logo set. Looks very nice, however - I think when selecting a system (at least in Big Box mode), there really needs to be a good picture of the system and the controller - not just a logo. On that note, any plans to add small icons to the platform selection screen in Desktop mode (like other Frontends offer, such as OpenEmU)? Really makes it look nicer and easier to navigate. Edit: realise that the Silver Ring logo set is for the wheel on the left. I was actually referring to a picture of the system that appears in the main window.

doojit Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Big box fantastic bit of software can you add your own images as neo geo seems to be the only one without images in big box mode. Could someone point me in the direction to set a custom image and banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Check the downloads sections of the forums. Users post custom assets all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 To add your own images go to the image folder go to the platform and add the files to the appropriate folders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
