is it possible to launch a .Bat file after exiting emulator in Big box?

Not really. I just changed my configuration to use that bat script to start and it worked fine from both LB and Big Box. No issues with my secondary monitor, or losing focus.

I would try using the additional apps method and forget the script method if it's causing focus issues. There are some tricks you can do using AHK scripts to grab focus back, but that additional apps and running you script to erase the nvram file should work.

any chance you wouldn't mind sharing your setting and .ini also yes i did it with the additional apps but as soon as I click the mouse on the level select it goes black and the game loses focus. what version of supermodel are you using?

I'm on r782 still. (Haven't had the need to update)

Did you correctly configure your mouse for use in swtrilgy?

My ini won't help as I have a real analog joystick I use for that game.

Sorry for the delay in response, I actually cannot figure out how to configure the mouse, when setting configs in supermodel it doesn't react when attempting to set the mouse but it does work when simply playing from supermodel and not within big box. Am I doing something wrong?

When you move the mouse it has to be within the black window that appears or it does t appear to register. There are several analog inputs options for this game, so I’d try them all. (Separately)

Duh! Can't believe I didn't know this haha anyway it didn't solve my issue here is a video of the issue i am having. I started another thread hoping maybe someone else knows why it is doing this.

When you click on the mission to start, is it selected and starts playing right away, or is there a slight pause before the timer selects the one one you were on?

If you look in your supermodel.ini, are your mouse buttons promptly mapped for swtrilgy?

Yes it does select it right away, then looses focus and moves behind, as for the INI there doesn't seem to be any specific controls for just that game, should there be?

Maybe this will help? this is how my ini is set up, do you see anything off or strange?

OMG! I fixed it and I feel like a total idiot!!!! Some how I had the check box checked for overriding the default startup screen and somehow that was shifting focus to windows and clicking it made it freak out. so now it works perfectly. Thanks for all the help!

[Headrush69]

Glad you got it working.

FYI, I don’t use the same device for every game. For example, I might use a light gun in 1 game, but prefer the trackball, even though it’s a light gun game.

In these cases, you can add specific controls in the supermodel.ini per game. Just start with [swtrilgy] and list the key mappings needed.

Or you can do it by running the config input option per game, for example supermodel3.exe -config-inputs swtrilgy

interesting i will take a look at that and yes this cab has lightguns but to be honest they are kinda shit, I have aimtrak guns and the calibration is terrible! can't wait for the LCD guns to come out, I have mine per-ordered for September.

Me too. Sold my Aimtraks early while they were still worth something. If Sinden’s work as well as they appear, they‘ll be the must have light guns.

Can’t wait until September and they arrive.

 I build arcades for clients (Great at wood working, not so great with software YET) and I always cringe when they ask for light guns and always have to tell them that they don't work very well and i always get "well I saw random YouTuber with them and they worked great " yeah well you didn't see the 14 days of work he put in to making them work half way decent. I have most recently be just recommending the dolphin bar with a wiimote.

I wrote a simple bat file to delete the NVRAM file for Star Wars Trilogy on supermodel, it was causing issues when reloading the game. Script works great but how can I tell launchbox and bigbox to run the bat file every time I exit Supermodel?

Could you post your script im having same issues thanks

[Visivopro]

Just open notepad and type:

del and the path (Make sure the beginning and end of your path has quotes) for example:

del “C:/users/Visivopro/LaunchBox/emulators/supermodel/NVRAM/swtrilogy.nv”

to your swtrilogy.nv file then save it as whatever.bat then in LaunchBox go to the additional apps tab and add the .bat file and tell it to run after closing program. Also to make sure you don’t cause any other issue make sure to check your emulator settings for supermodel on LaunchBox and make sure the override default startup screen is not checked, that was causing supermodel to lose focus and quit after mouse click. 
 

between those two things it should clear up any issues. If you still need help feel free to ask and I can do my best to help. 
 

also make sure you delete the nv file before running it again in big box for the first time. That should make sure it gets deleted every time you close supermodel.

Don’t know if you saw my edit but make sure to delete the nv file by hand the first time you run it so the .bat file can start the loop. You can also open the NVRAM folder and double click the .bat to check that it’s deleting it properly.
