This information was extremely helpful, and I've always wondered how to get Phoenix to work properly, especially after hearing that it's the most accurate 3DO emulator available, or so they say Glad to be of help! It really does seem to be the best 3DO emulator, try Alone in the Dark if you have it, it runs perfectly whereas under the 4DO emulator it's got horrendous sound issues, every other game I've tried has worked perfectly so far and phoenix has options so you can enhance the 3d resolution, it's got options for texture scaling as well but that kills the speed as soon as I move it past 1 (and I've got a fairly fast pc).

Zombeaver Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I'll have to check this out tonight. Most stuff works decently well with the 4DO RA core but there's some stuff that doesn't work with it that does work with standalone 4DO, like Crash n' Burn. Probably my biggest issue with 4DO is that it doesn't support Xinput, which means it doesn't work via Steam Link unless you're using VirtualHere. Does anybody happen to know if Phoenix supports Xinput? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ww97 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I'm sure that Phoenix also has some parameters in LB, but don't know what they are. Without paramaters, it just opens the emu only but does not load ROM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't find any commands to add to LaunchBox so that i can load games without having to deal with the Phoenix UI first.

DOS76 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I don't use Phoenix at all but has anyone tried using the command line itself to try to get the supported commands I know in demul if you navigate to the directory with the exe in CMD you can type demul.exe /? and it will return the supported command line, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RolandofGilead Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Has anyone figured out commands to get Phoenix working with Launchbox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 I just tried to use -help, /help -?, /? and the program launches and no help menu shows in cmd listing other commands so I ran System Internal Suits Process Explorer and checked to see if any strings where listed that might resemble any commands and there was nothing listed under strings so I don't know if there are any commands or not I certainly can't find them.

I read through the thread and saw that someone explained how to get it working using RocketLauncher. I don’t have any experience using the program, but it seems pretty straightforward to set up. 4DO is great, but Phoenix runs Alone in the Dark, which 4DO has audio issues with. Plus it’s actively being developed compared to 4DO (which hasn’t been updated in almost two years), and it’s now the best Jaguar emulator from what I’ve read.

Bipco Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) Is someone still playing or searching for 3DO games? Are there any possible ways for playing these games in 2023 without installing emulators and that kind of stuff or installation of any kind of program for playing these types of games necessary?

Lordmonkus Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Well you could buy an old 3DO and play the games on it but other than that, no, you will need an emulator to play them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bipco Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 So my only option for playing 3DO Games is to download an emulator and install it on my PC. What emulator should I look for downloading any name? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Your options are very limited and none of them are great. https://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/3do/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belgarath Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 That doesn't even show the best one which is Phoenix, and apart from being slightly awkward to integrate into LaunchBox, it is actually great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too odd to integrate. There is a Phoenix Launcher exe file someone created and posted on the forum. Set-up Phoenix and ensure games run inside it. Then when you set things up in LB point to the PhoenixLauncher.exe, add a specific command line, and it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bipco Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Well sure is that the options are limitless because limited people are playing 3DO games in 2023 😁 well, I will try something to install and we will see how it will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bipco Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Hi again from me, yesterday searching for retro games and an emulator I run into a website that provides online playing of all the retro consoles like Sega, Nintendo, Apple, and 3DO I don't know if I can share more details but if the moderator approves it I will share more information to let me know if it's good or not.

Yes, I know that I read the rules that's why I asked first because I found something interesting and someone experienced like you in retro games and someone else to take a look but if it's wrong then I will keep it out.
