Did you follow the installation instructions to unblock the dll files? Quote

Really sorry yes I did and I got it working. The only issue I'm having now is it's not playing the video on the main menu with the platforms. Quote
Nyukki Posted December 15, 2018 Posted December 15, 2018 Hey guys. Quite often after exiting a game, when arriving back at the game menu a large portion of my desktop is visible. The problem goes away when I escape back to the system menu. See screenshot below of what I mean. Any one else experienced this? Any clue how to prevent this from happening? Thanks Quote

I'm sorry you're having that problem. I would first try making sure your video drivers are up to date and you have all the latest Windows updates. 1 Quote

I haven't seen it in quite a while though, so I'm not sure if a video driver update fixed it a while back or if it's maybe just a performance issue. Regardless, it's a Windows/.NET rendering issue, so unfortunately there's probably not a lot I'm going to be able to do to fix it. Quote
scoobydooami Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 (edited) Hi everyone. I am new to Launchbox and have Big Box. I really love how this theme has artwork for loads of given playlists that I intend upon making. I am just unsure about the install instructions. It says to go into the plugins folder, right click each dll, then select unblock. I don't know what this means really. When I right click the dll and then select properties it just brings up the normal Windows properties window. I don't see unblock anywhere in that window. What am I doing wrong? Please and thanks, in advance. Edited December 21, 2018 by scoobydooami Quote

Nyukki Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 Can anyone point me in the direction of a Japanese Mega Drive Platform Video? Either by CriticalCid or in the same style as his? I've only found US Genesis and European Mega Drive platform videos. Since I have individual US/Japanese wheels for NES/Famicom, SNES/Super Famicom and PCE/TG16, it's been doing my head in not having a Japanese Mega Drive wheel. Quote

ericcannon Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 is there anyway you could make 4:3 ratio version of your theme? I recently modded an arcade 1up sf2 cab and am running big box on it. I currently am running the default theme as it is one of the only 4:3 ratio themes that works. I would love to be able to use this theme in my arcade 1up cab Quote
ericcannon Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 I’m actually only interested in running arcade, Nintendo, Super Nintendo, sega genesis, Atari 2600, Atari 5200, Atari 7800 and arcade collections on my arcade 1up cab. So those would the only themes that would need to be converted for me. Quote
ericcannon Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Correction the screen resolution is 1280x1024 so it would actually be 5:4 ratio. I know a lot of people are modding these arcade 1up sf2 cabs so it would be great to have an awesome theme like this working in this aspect ration on theses arcade 1up cabs. Quote

Cid did comment early on that making a 4:3 version likely will not be done by him since it will require a complete remake of the theme and remaking the artwork assets which would require a ton of work. That was back in April 2018 so not sure if he has changed his mind since then. But just wanted to let you know. Quote
ericcannon Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) Thanks for the response. I figured due to the popularity of theses arcade 1up machines and also big box it would be a shame to only have 1 theme that works on them. Hopefully Cid will reconsider?
