Yeah that's pretty crazy, but it doesn't ruin LB for me. Sometimes I add a system and then "scan" for metadata and media again afterwards, multiple times and every time it adds more even though it is within a time-frame of less than a few hours. Oh well, 'tis the way it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIVO Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Agreed, doesnt ruin experience at all. Im using the .198 set as well. I think personally what im going to do is continue updating my rom set as needed. However I wont be updating it inside LB until this issue is resolved/looked at with some more light shed on it.

Lordmonkus Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 There is a "Mame Overhaul" planned for Launchbox, it was the #2 item on the last poll so it should see some attention in the near future once the work on LB Next is complete (which it's very close to being done). You can see the stuff from the poll that made the cut and will be getting work done on here: 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatuswalrus Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Those upcoming changes are exciting ones that’ll be huge improvements. Always moving forward, I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyRamirez Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Great thanks for actually listening to user feedback. I am using EmuLoader as it imports every working game but I prefer to use MAME in Launchbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Styphelus Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Just updated my rom set to ver 0.200 (from 0.185) and there are a ton of games Launchbox doesn't import. I was comparing it with the latest Hyperspin database and so far I have around 26 games and I only got up to letter "C". That's exluding all the weird casino, fruit games and so on. Been trying to add them manually but takes forever to import each single game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charco Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Yeah, this is a known issue. Jason will be back to working on items from the last community poll once LaunchBox Next is done. I'd imagine he'll be working on MAME stuff soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIVO Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 so looking forward to it. hes done a bang up job thus far so no worries! also hoping we see native support for servo-stik 4way/8way switching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I'm confused you want LB to support your hardware switching between 4 and 8 way mode. If its done by a script or bat then you can probably already do it using the additional apps feature in LB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIVO Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 (edited) thx Replay ill have a look at that ok i doubt joystick_contradictory is what i need at all. -joystick_contradictory Enable contradictory direction digital joystick input at the same time such as Left and Right or Up and Down at the same time. The default is OFF (-nojoystick_contradictory) so no dice. but thx any ways. Edited August 14, 2018 by NIVO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyRamirez Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Really enjoying Launchbox Next and I would like to have all my MAME roms to show up in Launchbox. I don't like EmuLauncher. It is a PITA to configue, easy to corrupt and quite often crashes when I quit the program. If I am quitting no need to crash. However it does import all my roms unlike Launchbox.
