MetalVinnie Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Beat 'Em Ups View File 266 Beat 'Em Ups (Split playlists for MAME and Consoles) The .xml files: Beat Em Ups (Arcade): 133 Games for MAME Beat Em Ups (NES): 28 Games (17 NES + 2 Famicom) Beat Em Ups (SNES): 60 Games (37 SNES + 18 Super Famicom) Beat Em Ups (Genesis): 45 Games (40 Genesis/Megadrive + 5 Sega CD) Beat Em Ups (Turbo Grafx): 22 Games Download the .xml files and place them in your LaunchBox\Data\Playlists directory. Issues with Metadata and Launchbox IDs: 'Avengers' (Arcade) is a vertical scrolling beat 'em up made by Capcom with no Launchbox ID. Launchbox will default the Metadata and Media to 'Avengers In Galactic Storm'. That is the wrong game. The Mame rom filename is 'Avengers'. Do not attach any Metadata, title it exactly as 'Avengers' in the Edit Game window in Launchbox, and Emumovies should give you the proper media (although you may have to surf around to get a clear logo). There's an arcade prototype game called 'Judge Dredd' made by Midway. It is a beat 'em up and has no launchbox ID. This is confusing because there is a light gun game called 'Judge Dredd' made by Acclaim. The Mame rom file is 'jdreddp'. Title it as 'jdreddp' in Launchbox, and Emumovies will give you the media for it. Hit ok and edit it again if you want to change the title without losing the media. Just don't title it as 'Judge Dredd' or it will get mixed up with the other game. I named it 'Judge Dredd Prototype'. For the SNES list I added the Rushing Beat Series: 'Rushing Beat', 'Rushing Beat Ran: Fukusei Toshi', and 'Rushing Beat Shura'. These are the Japanese but superior versions of Rival Turf, Brawl Brothers and The Peace Keepers, respectively. No metadata for the Japanese versions and I'm still looking for some of the media. 'UFO Kamen Yakisoban' for the Super Famicom also has no launchbox ID, but there is media for it on Emumovies as long as it is titled exactly like I have it here. ............ It took about a week and a lot of research to put these lists together and I tried very hard to get every Beat 'Em Up for each platform. But, I was pretty strict about what made it on the lists. There aren't any one-on-one 'Fighters' in these lists, that's a whole other category. I also kept away from 'Hack n Slash' games which can be categorized as Action/Platformers. Please let me know if there are any games that should be on these lists. I'm sure I missed a few. -MV Submitter MetalVinnie Submitted 04/21/2017 Category Playlists 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReaperZer0 Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 How do you combine the individual lists into one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalVinnie Posted April 21, 2017 Author Share Posted April 21, 2017 I can make a list like that for you. But, I'm currently away from home. But, it's easy. Just add all the games from the 4 playlists in a new playlist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brainimpact Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 You mistakenly put a SNES game in the Genesis playlist, in case you want to fix it the game is a venom spider man game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalVinnie Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 There are two Spiderman/Venom games for Genesis and for Snes with the same titles. I had a bit of trouble with the naming of the titles and launchbox id's, particularly for 'Separation Anxiety'. For the Genesis game: 'Venom Spider-Man: Separation Anxiety' will get you the right Launchbox id, but 'Spider-Man and Venom - Separation Anxiety' will get you the mp4 from Emumovies. I left it in the playlist with the latter, but I did not expect that you would get the SNES game instead. So, I just changed it to the one that gets you the Launchbox id because I would rather you get the Genesis version of the game. But ,unfortunately, this will still leave us with the problem with EmuMovies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charco Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 @MetalVinnie the download link appears to contain the Genesis shmups playlist instead of the beat 'em ups one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charco Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I have downloaded all of your playlists now and added any games I was missing. Do you plan on creating a fighting games playlist @MetalVinnie? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
