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. 1 Quote
DWhitlow Posted January 17 Posted January 17 Yea... I haven't gone back and tried to use yours yet. Work keeps getting in the way. I blame my dad for not being rich so I wouldn't have to work. Quote
DWhitlow Posted January 22 Posted January 22 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. Quote

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?

DWhitlow Posted January 24 Posted January 24 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. Quote

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. Edited January 26 by Chadmando 1 Quote
Dalba Posted February 19 Posted February 19 (edited) Hello, I have a very strange issue to submit regarding usage with Dolphin. My system boot directly in Big Box. When i launch a gamecube or wii game using Dolphin as emulator, i can then call super pause menu. But then, only resume and quit options are working. I guess "quit" is working thanks to the aggressive quit setting enabled. Save state or load state don't do anything. But ! If i go back from big box to launchbox interface, open super pause menu settings, load dolphin settings, go to emulator keys settings and click save on this page, i can then go back to big box, launch any gamecube or wii game, and then super pause menu will work as intended. Save and load state will work flawlessly. I tested with other emulators like retroarch, ares, pcsx2 or mesen and i don't encounter this issue. I use latest version of launchbox, super pause menu and dolphin as of now. I use your default dolphin.ini file without modifying it. Do you have any clue why this is happening ?

I reply to myself, in fact it's not related only to super pause menu. It's happening too with launchbox's integrated pause menu. I really don't understand why this behaviour with dolphin only...

In dolphin, Options -> Configuration -> Interface I have pause on loss of focus disabled, but there's also "Hotkeys require windows focus", maybe try disabling that option? Quote

Just released my new Strategy guide update, I've included emulator settings for Daphne and included logic to handle .bat files. Quote

I already played with those settings without success. I will just keep searching why this is happening... Quote
