Emulators no longer require the exact name for scripts to populate (now uses a Contains search)

Somebody can explain me please

When you add your emulators to Launchbox, if you name the emulator something other than what it is normally called Launchbox will still recognize it to populate any AHK scripts Jason may have put in by default for the new Pause screen stuff.

@wallmachine What’s the script inside game loader all rh.bat? I wanna try it.

Also where do you place the bat file? Okay so you manually set it up with all the other emulators in its own directory. Just wanted to know whats inside that bat file, how does it know what to do with the empty text file?

@wallmachine Can you share the script you used in your bat file? Wouldn’t mind trying it your way and seeing if there’s any difference.

Beta 18 is out now with just some translation updates.

The plan is to release the official version tomorrow morning. If anyone knows of any remaining bugs (outside of known emulator compatibility issues), please let me know.

Disc swapping is available on the pause screen, but it is still dependent on the emulator supporting it, and being configured properly for it. I haven't added explicit support for unzipping multi-disc games, so I don't expect that would work. I'll probably put a better solution for all of that on the next community poll.

Thank you for replay. Now i know that it's in the pipeline

Not work for me I tried both with the keyboard and with the controller. I only use retroarch for all emulators. I don't know what's wrong with the procedure but it doesn't work: /

Did you set your Pause button/Key in Launchbox? It is not actually using what is set in RA. You have to set it in the Launchbox settings. There are two areas to set Pause map. A Pause key and an automation for a button combo.

I can assure you it most certainly does work with retroarch. Are you using a controller encoder? If so you need to set a combo for pause in controller automation.

Yes, try that, and try setting the pause key in LaunchBox to a key that is not bound in Retroarch.

We've had lots of beta testers testing it with many versions of Retroarch, including 1.7.7. Whatever is going on must be some kind of weird system-specific issue. Somehow the pause function isn't even being triggered. Have you tried other emulators? I would look for anything custom you have in your setup that isn't typical to try and narrow it down.

I only use retroarch, I haven't tried other emulators.
I've tested it on my Bartop with Encoder and Arcade Stick and it doesn't work.
I tried it on my primary PC and it doesn't work (Xbox Gamepad and keyboard)
I tried on my secondary PC with another gamepad and keyboard and it doesn't work.
I don't think it's a Windows MayUpdate problem since on Bartop I have the previous version of 1803 of Windows.
