Retro808 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 The new Startup Screens may be messing with Daphne. You may need to try checking the "Hide All Windows..." check box in the Game Startup Screen tab of your Daphne emulator in your Launchbox settings. Jason did work on this in the latest beta of Launchbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Bunsen Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) @andrea_ita I had the same problem with Dragons Lair Remastered (not running in Daphne) and unchecked "Enable Game Startup Screen". Then the game displayed ok. Maybe this will work with Daphne too. Oddly, Space Ace Remastered did not have this problem and worked fine with default startup screen options. There's clearly something odd with the startup screen implementation. Edited January 4, 2019 by Dr_Bunsen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try turning off the Startup Screen and seeing if the issue no longer exists. You can turn it off globally or by emulator. I would try by emulator first. In Launchbox go to >Tools>Manage emulators and edit your Daphne emulator. You will see a tab for Game Startup Screen. In the tab untick the box Enable Game Startup Screen.

Retro808 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 There is also a Startup Setting in BigBox. You have to change there. In the settings menu you will see Game Startup option. I recommend looking around at all the options in the menu to familiarize yourself with what is available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro808 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Actually Jason reminded what you need to do to get it to work with Startup screens. Turn Startup Screen back on and in Launchbox go to manage emulators and edit Daphne. Make sure "Attempt to hide console window" box is checked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
