Cupanther Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) I am trying to use the Cannonball emulator for Out Run. I have setup a profile in Logitech gaming software that detects when the Cannonball emulator is launched and switches the steering wheel profile for that game. Everything works fine when I launch the cannonball emulator directly, but when I laugh it from launchbox, the logitech profiler does not change. I am using a logitech g29 steering wheel on a Windows 7 pc. Does anyone have any experience with this? Do I need to configure launchbox differently for an emulator that is specific to one rom set and does not need to specify it in the command line? Thanks for any help or ideas.

Lordmonkus Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Hmm, I have no experience doing this at all but if the Logitech profiler software autodetects when the software is loaded and switches to the appropriate profile outside of Launchbox it should in theory work through Launchbox. Launchbox afterall is just a fancy UI for shortcuts. I don't know if the Logitech software supports loading a profile using the command line or not but if it does you could maybe use the Additional Apps feature in Launchbox to have the profiler software load the profile after launching the game.

Cupanther Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately I don't think it supports command line options. The application is always running in the system tray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Are you just launching a single exe for Cannball through Launchbox ? Or is it something else ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupanther Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) It is a single exe. You don't even specify the rom set as it is hard coded to only use one specific rom set. Edited July 13, 2017 by Cupanther Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Ok, that's what I thought. I did mess around with it a while back but only to check it out and then moved on. Very strange then that loading it through Launchbox doesn't trigger the profile software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupanther Posted July 15, 2017 Author Share Posted July 15, 2017 Does launchbox add anything to the command so that the text string may not match what Logitech is looking for? How should I launch a game that is just an application and not an emulator that requires a rom and still have it show up in the Arcade category?

Lordmonkus Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 None that I am aware of, otherwise it would mess with a lot more stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krakatoa Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I get the same issue. Did you figure it Cupanther? I’m have the same issue. I think it’s because the exe for launch box/big box is running so it won’t switch to another profile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupanther Posted March 18, 2021 Author Share Posted March 18, 2021 Sorry, I did not figure it out. If you find a solution, please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
