Upgrading to 13.18 makes it show up now. 

Good to hear. You may want to disable launchbox's pause menu if you want to use the same pause key for this. I see you were having resolution issues with launchbox's pause menu, the super pause menu should be able to handle those problems.

It works great. One more question: Has anyone gotten this to work with Daphne? I've got LB kicking off Daphne but it starts a BAT file. It starts and I'm able to pause, but the pause menu doesn't come up.

Awesome. I haven't played around with Daphne, but I can take a look this weekend. Is the bat file part of the emulator, or are you just using a batch script to launch the emulator itself?

Everything I find about running Daphne in LB they show creating the bat file and running that instead of pointing at the exe. Not sure if that's because of the parameters that have to be passed or not. I'm gonna try and figure out if I can add the params to LB and run the exe instead. I can't debug so it may fight me.

I see. So for the super pause menu, the emulators .exe info get passed to the pause menu from launchbox, and part of the checks the pause menu does is to compare the running .exe emulator that Launchbox explicitly launches so it doesn't incidentally latch onto a potential second emulator process that may be running the background.

I spent some time with Daphne today, and I added some logic into the pause menu that if the launched emulator program is a ".bat" it will latch onto the first running emu.exe that was enabled in the settings once the bat command closes with a 10 second timeout. It seems to work out well just be sure to not have another emulator running in the background that it could potentially latch onto.

This will be implemented in my next release, with a config for Daphne, along with a Strategy guide menu I am working on.
