Zombeaver Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 In order to quickly duplicate from one device to another like that, yeah you probably would, that's true. If you import them from LB's internal structure everything will be portable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you can actually press ESC after selecting them in order to clear them. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. That is kindof a UI oddity.

Zombeaver Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I know the question's come up before - I was thinking it was ESC. Maybe Delete? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Its escape twice in a row to clear 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOS76 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) I'm concerned that If you moved the files into LB but your MAME.exe is somewhere else so is your MAME.ini and if that hasn't been edited to reflect the new ROM location then nothing should work. Even if you move the emulator into the games folder with the roms the roms have to be inside the roms folder or the ini has to be edited. Also just to add moving the roms back into the ROMs folder like I mentioned isn't an option either because that will break the path in LB Edited February 10, 2017 by DOS76 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it doesn't, then yeah. 1 minute ago, DOS76 said: What version of MAME its working for me just tested He's not talking about MAME. He's talking about in controller automation in Launchbox. There isn't a button to clear them but there's some way to do it. I thought it was escape or delete or something along those lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problem editing the ini file if necessary. I'll experiment with that. It's scraping metadata at the moment so I'll mess with that later... The keymapping is screwing with me though.... some of commands are set to none by default. Is there a settings file I can edit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerHof2007 Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 Looks like I may be able to edit the settings.xml... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I'm sure you probably could. There is some way to do it just through LB though. I'm not home to check at the moment. I remember thinking that you actually couldn't because there's not a visible clear button or anything like that but I remember somebody figuring out what it actually was. What happens if you hover over the fields? Does it show a tooltip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Oh my bad we were talking about MAME I thought the controller thing was for MAME too yeah I don't know that you can do that can't you just remap it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 He wants them completely blanked out though; not mapped to anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerHof2007 Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 Well, the solution for now is the BigBoxSettings.xml Set values to 0 <KeyboardVolumeUp>0</KeyboardVolumeUp> <KeyboardVolumeDown>0</KeyboardVolumeDown> <KeyboardSwitchView>0</KeyboardSwitchView> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 That's really bugging me now though - I'll take a look at it tonight. Editing the xml should work in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerHof2007 Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 Yeah, it worked... and not a big deal to do but you'd think there is some way to do it from the interface... On a similar note... is could a key combo be set up for any of these? like alt+P for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 As far as I know it only uses controller inputs. I guess you could always try hitting "Alt" for the combo button and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 It's delete. I just tested it. You click on one and then hit delete and it clears it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
