bbweiners Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Hi, Is it possible to play a short video while a game is loading? I know about RocketLauncher, but it doesn't currently work with SSFLoader, only SSF. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I'm sure you could do it with the Additional Apps tool but it would just end up slowing the loading of your game you actually want to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Would have to be a real short video, like half a second? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbweiners Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 SSFLoader launches a small window that looks really stupid. It probably takes about 5 seconds before it goes away and starts up the game. I'm trying to get around the ugly transition. I'd use Mednafen through Retroarch, but my computer isn't nearly fast enough to use that emulator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbweiners Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 Just in case you're not aware, they're both Sega Saturn emulators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Like I said you could probably do it with the Additional Apps tool but that would have to be done on a per game basis for now until Jason adds the bulk edit option to it. Another possible option would be an AHK script but I am not proficient enough with that to give you a good example of how to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbweiners Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 (edited) Well, at least I have a couple of things I can mess around with now. Thanks! Edited December 20, 2017 by bbweiners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damageinc86 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 That's what a fade option is in rocketlauncher, but it's only with animated images at best. Maybe someday that could be an option built in to launchbox so that it could cover up the emulator while it loads underneath whatever's being shown on top of it. Helps to give the seamless effect.

Lordmonkus Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 The OP mentioned RocketLauncher and said it doesn't work with SSFLoader. But yeah it would be nice to have this feature built into Launchbox for those people wanting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
