We will need more info than that to troubleshoot, "nothing works" isnt to descriptive, especially as you mention two completely different systems with there own specific importers. What exactly happens when you try to launch games? Do your MAME games work just using MAME without Launchbox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealvegasmike Posted February 14, 2020 Author Share Posted February 14, 2020 when i try to import games from steam it says it cant access my account even though i filled everything out correctly, and with mame none of my roms show up. when i open launch box there is nothing there, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your steam profile set to public, as it needs to be? 8 minutes ago, therealvegasmike said: and with mame none of my roms show up. when i open launch box there is nothing there As for MAME, what romset do you have and how are you importing, using the fullset importer or the standard rom importer?

C-Beats Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Are you using the correct steam profile name, or are you putting in your username or account id? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealvegasmike Posted February 14, 2020 Author Share Posted February 14, 2020 i think that is part of the problem with my steam profile, the tutorial says under profile in the adress bar it should say id but instead im getting this (https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198199424291/) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
