Custard Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 (edited) Hi. Whenever I boot into BigBox, the Nintendo Wii platform keeps on disappearing. It comes back after a tedious check for missing media, but as soon as I reopen it, it disappears again. I have tried re-importing all of my Wii games and downloading all of the media again, but nothing has worked. Does anyone know a solution to this issue?

Mr. RetroLust Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Are you sure the games aren't checked with the hidden function? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Beats Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Big Box has several options to hide games missing certain media as well as the games "Hide" field being checked. I would check to make sure one of those settings aren't doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. They are not hidden and they do not pop up when Show Hidden Games is checked. 1 hour ago, C-Beats said: Big Box has several options to hide games missing certain media as well as the games "Hide" field being checked. I would check to make sure one of those settings aren't doing it. When I uncheck all of the hide games missing (insert media here) checkboxes, nothing changes. I have to uncheck and recheck them every time I launch BigBox. That takes 30 minutes usually, so it’s not very helpful when I want to just play a Wii game.

So does messing with those boxes ever make Wii game appear (last sentence makes me believe the answer is yes). If so, what are those options set to when you CAN see the game?

Sorry if my wording is a bit confusing. When I uncheck all of the options for hiding the games, the Wii games still do not appear. I have to recheck one of those options and then wait 10-15 minutes for it to scan for missing media for it to appear again. I have to do this on every boot of BigBox if I want my Wii games to show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK i think the confusion here is "scan for missing media" is in Launchbox and not Bigbox, you need to be specific there as they are two different interfaces with different settings/options.

No. What I mean is that it scans for missing media when I check any of the boxes I previously mentioned. I am not doing “scan for missing media” in Launchbox. BigBox does it whenever any of the boxes are checked. Edited July 22, 2020 by Custard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
