If they are not registered to the start menu when installed then Launchbox wont be able to find them. they are..I had to go back to 11.2 for launchbox to see them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One difference I've noticed is that BigBox is opening immediately after the startup video now. I have a large library and several playlists, and would take about 10 seconds to load after the startup video finishes. Not that it was a terribly long time, but this is a very welcomed improvement! When I had that problem I would adjust the sound volume from my keyboard, and then I found if you press Alt a few times it also jumps from the Startup Video to BigBox. Because of the huge library causing BigBox a very long time to open up, I had to modify my Startup into a 10Min part that says "LOADING..." afterwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skunkie Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 (edited) I've just run into a weird issue with Beta 11.3.17. Windows Defender identifies it as a virus: Win32/Fuery.C!cl I looked it up and it's a false positive, but thought I should let you know. It isn't happening with 11.4 - so that is a good thing.

Cineaste Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Could someone please confirm the downgrade procedure to 11.2? I take it that LB has moved to the 'Core' folder as of 11.3. Do I select this folder when running the 11.2 installer? Or do I go back to the parent folder like it used to be? Will there be any complications later down the track when I inevitably upgrade again? For now, I have no choice but to stay on 11.2 until plugins have been fixed, specifically PCSX2 Configurator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the mean time, all you have to do to import Windows games is simply drag the shortcuts onto the LaunchBox interface.

Yes, we were aware of that false positive. We generally don't work at getting around anti-virus false positives for the beta releases, but we do for the officials.

For now, I have no choice but to stay on 11.2 until plugins have been fixed, specifically PCSX2 Configurator. You can safely install 11.2 directly over top of your LaunchBox folder. Not the Core folder, but your original LaunchBox folder. Watch carefully though in the installer, because if you browse to a folder, it will automatically put \LaunchBox on the end of it (which makes sense for new installs). Just check the text box after browsing to make sure you've selected the correct folder and not a LaunchBox\LaunchBox folder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, there's not much we can do to fix it as it's either a Microsoft bug or a driver bug. Feel free to downgrade to 11.2, but hopefully it'll be fixed with a new driver or a Windows update shortly. Just out of curiosity though, what model is your video card? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mask Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 (edited) this has been for quite a few versions now, but laptops set up their function keys to a special set of characters for calling. each brand codes their function keys differently. I don't know if it has anything to do with what I'm about to say but my laptop is a clevo and to press mute, I have to press fn+f3. with that said, for some reason when I set a button on the controller and choose to bring up the menu to end the bigbox menu to end the game, it always triggers my laptop to mute. I've tried the left stick button to bring said menu up, and ive used the ps button on my controller. on first start of bigbox, pressing either when mapped to bringing up the pause screen menu, triggers mute. But after that one time never again. That is until I go into a game and press those mappings again (any mapping will do to that pause screen). It always goes to the pause screen while at the same time, muting my laptop. Edited September 1, 2020 by The Mask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Laptop also Mutes during Pause Menus which I do via the Home/Guide button, but thought that was normal for any computer to do it as well since the sound isn't needed when in the Pause Menu anyway, but I have a feeling some out there probably want Music they set to the title or whatever else going in media while the Pause Menu is opened. I FINALLY just bought a ThinkCentre the other day after watching some @ETAPRIME videos a while back, so I'll be doing some Beta Testing with that too to see if it's just a Laptop thing or not along with everything else as more features come about.

The pause screens do temporarily mute the system iirc, in order to prevent some jarring audio hitching that happens with some emulators. Is it staying muted for you?

Not only that, every time it is done, my brand of laptop has a big square icon that pops up on the screen every time it is muted/unmuted.

I can't see us getting that working on incompatible systems, unfortunately, but there is an option to turn off audio muting during transitions, which should solve the problem.

I am having a similar graphical issue I have a GeForce GTX 1060 6gb card, latest game ready driver installed, I have tried reinstalling net core and ensuring windows is up to date but nothing seems to be correcting this issue. When first updated to 11.6 big box ran once with no graphical issues and the videos were proper sizes, however after doing a media scrape and starting big box again all the graphical glitches have returned. I'd like to revert back to 11.2 but every time I do so when I switch from launchbox to big box it automatically updates to 11.6 despite all update option being unchecked.
