When it was about to install it said it couldn't and rolled back and exited. Now nothing is working and Launchbox.exe will not start at all no matter what I do. Any ideas ? Thanks Should be 199MB. I just updated here with no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zugswang Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) Hi, When I update manually, do I point it to the folder where Launchbox.exe is ? (the install path i mean) Thanks Edited April 21, 2021 by zugswang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(the install path i mean) Thanks YEs, but you want to be one level higher, so if Launchbox was on your D;\Launchbox drive you would point the installer just to D or you will end up installing a new Launchbox folder inside of your Launchbox folder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zugswang Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Thanks, that did it, all now working and updated to 11.11 Very odd, first time that has ever happened when updating, now I will remember I can manually update like this if it happens in future.

Fablog Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Hey guys, There is a bog with Teknoparrot games. When I launch a game from bigbox, I see the first 5s of the game and after that appear a error window named "m_pd3dDevice->Reset", the text say "D3DERR_INVALIDCALL". This pb doesn't exist with Launchbox. Tested with Grid and GTI club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RULLUR Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Is anyone else having issues for the last few days where you can't access your EmuMovies stuff whenever you do a Metadata update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a couple of threads on the forums here about emumovies being down via there API, it was fixed a couple of days ago and should be working fine now. Also password resets were sent out to everyone about a week ago, so if you havent changed your password that could be the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely go over there or keep up with them, but thanks for the info on that. I just hope things are a little more straightened up with them too since their database at times seems so full of errors that feel only based on keywords, and might be sort of why some things overwrite to using stuff from the wrong region too. I'm sure most of you know I want things to be as accurate in one click as possible though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a Direct X error message, nothing else could try updating your video driver and see if that resolves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fablog Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 It's Teknoparrot but I don't have this problem when I launch the game from Launchbox or Teknoparrot itself. I will try to update the video driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just now, Fablog said: It's Teknoparrot but I don't have this problem when I launch the game from Launchbox or Teknoparrot itself. I will try to update the video driver. Teknoparrot is quite different to other emulators though and patched dll's are used often to trick games into thinking they are running on the correct hardware they were coded for. So i wouldnt be surprised if something changed and maybe teknoparrot needs exclusive access to the GPU, and isnt getting that when a fullscreen app like Bigbox is running? Whereas its fine from Launchbox as a windowed app. Just a uneducated theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darreldearth Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 (edited) Recently when trying to use the artwork downloader it wont download anything from emumovies unless I only use the downloader for just a few games at a time. Not sure how long it's been acting that way but seems to have started recently. Not sure if its everyone or just me. Also I saw that emumovies had been down but I dont think this is related to that because its happening today and that problem with their server has been fixed. Plus it only happens when doing larger groups of games at 1 time, and sometimes on smaller groups Edited April 28, 2021 by darreldearth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the same problem, but @neil9000 already let know in previous posts that they were down the other day and is making everyone change passwords. I tried to Login on their site, but seems I'm still having problems getting back in to EmuMovies now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna be a while, but im seeing no issues here, Im currently replacing all N64 data just to show its working with zero issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RULLUR Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 I went back in to ask for a Password reset on my own instead of the one they issued to everyone. Seems I'm finally able to go back in to the site now, so hopefully that ends any other issues within LaunchBox about accessing their database even though at most I feel our database is growing to be way more accurate than EmuMovies. They tend to on a few occasions have things we don't, but when it comes to Backgrounds, you're really asking for a mess because it seems based on keywords such as some things that had "Advance" in the name made games have Sonic Advance as a Background even when it's not even a Sonic game, or if "Man" was in a game's name, you'd likely get Spider-Man as a Background, even if it wasn't a Spider-Man game. So now I just uncheck Backgrounds when it comes to EmuMovies. I'm working hard in making sure our Database has better Backgrounds in accurate form to the title they belong to than just of a franchise like I seen some do.

Yeah there are no issues, as mentioned previously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
