Exit Emulators BigBox

[Redkin]

Hi! I bought the premium license of launchbox and now i can use big box.. the problem is that when i run a n64 game on project 64 and i try to close it with my Xbox One controller, and the automatization of the controller enabled using the "close active window" option, it closes launchbox!!! someone can help me with this??? i wanna exit emulators with my controller :(, i used the "show BigBox" hotkey but nothing happens

I'm not 100 percent sure of this, but make sure you're setting up your exit key under Controller Automation in Bigbox, not Controller Buttons. Under Controller Buttons there is an "Exit" you can bind, but I'm not exactly sure what it does, and I have it bound to nothing.

yeah bro, i have it on Controller Automation not under the controller buttons

Its an odd problem to have. I use an xbox one controller as well, and have no problems closing 64 games, but I use RetroArch, so I'm not sure if maybe this is just a problem with that particular emulator. I doubt it. 

You shouldn't be using the Show Launchbox hotkey at all. I have that unbound. That's for if you want to pull up launchbox while the emulator is still running, I think. Are you possibly making Launchbox the Active Window BEFORE you exit the active window? 

I'm really not patronizing, but "exit active window" means just that. It's not an "exit this emulator" hotkey. In order for it to work, the emulator has to be the active window.

you are right, it only happens me on project 64, i think ill be using retroarch too.. And no bigbox is not the active window :(, i have a nes game with nestopia and it works well but not on p64 :\

Maybe it really is just with that emulator. I mean the good news is that RA is not only a viable alternative, its better in a lot of ways than project 64 at this point. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
