ltearth Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Some details. I added a few MAME roms manually, but Arcade in BigBox isn't showing up as an option. I tried changing themes to see if it was a theme issue, but no luck. Also, I tried following the large thread on why MAME games won't open from Launchbox/BigBox, but I can not get mine to work. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro808 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Does the platform show up in LaunchBox? What version is your Mame and Mame roms? Are you using standard command line Mame or an offshoot like MameUI? In LB go to >Tools>Manage Emulators and edit your Mame. Post the following pics: 1. Pic of the Details tab. 2. Pic of the Associated Platforms tab. Then Right Click and Edit a game. Post the following pics: 1. Pic of the Launching page. 2. Pic of the Emulation page.

ltearth Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 i got games to launch through launchbox, but Arcade is not showing up in BigBox but is in LaunchBox. So I used the MAME import tool, but Arcade is still not showing up in BigBox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molojolo222 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Weird. You added MAME arcades through the import and then associated MAME as the emulator. Then you can launch games through launchbox for MAME, but when you open bigbox there's no arcade option to choose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I added some console emulators afterwards, but those show up fine in BigBox. Not sure what is different. I compared the others to the arcade under manage platform and everything seems fine. I uninstalled all themes and used the default one and its still not showing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro808 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Can you post a pic inside of LB showing the platform panel on the left hand side and then a pic of what you see in BigBox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neil9000 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I see you have no images for Arcade there in Launchbox. In Bigbox do you have the option to hide games with no media turned on? Because if the option is on for whatever image type is selected there in Launchbox then all those games will be hidden, and therefore the platorm.
