bmiller83 Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 I have the R58X Android box and ran into a issue where 1.8 won't load the Arcade interface on first boot so I went back to 1.7 and everything is working. 1.8 works fine on my Samsung Galaxy tab S8+ and Ayn Odin Pro

bmiller83 Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 @Jason Carr no I have over 20GBs left in internal storage. My Launchbox folder is stored on my 4tb portable. I uninstalled 1.8 and went back to 1.7 and loaded my license and everything is fine. I did a fresh install of 1.8 and still got the same error

Why are there then even the options to do so? Thought if I put Sports/Soccer it will still be recognized as a sports game.

That filter lists all genre's, not just values we have in our DB. We can't possibly be expected to provide images for every possible permutation of genre's our users think to use though, which is why we instead built ways for you to customize your UI to meet your needs. If you want that genre keep it, you just need to assign a new banner to it should you want to use it that way. I personally have a build I've been working on where I've been categorizing all my games into Genre / Subgenre like that so I understand the desire. Just isn't the typical app workflow and so you'll need to provide custom art for your custom metadata depending on which view you are trying to utilize.

I wish I had better news for you. I'm not sure if we'll be able to fix it without having the device on hand. It appears that for whatever reason, it's having trouble writing to the LaunchBox folder, which makes sense since it's on a portable drive. Unfortunately some of the lesser-known vendors have very buggy code in for file permissions on Android 12, especially with external devices. It may help to put the large ROM files on the external device, while keeping the LaunchBox folder on internal storage.
commandernojj Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Hello, I've been running into issues with the launchbox DB not pulling 1:1 in the android interface. Mostly this applies to rom hacks, the games won't pull in all the media that's on the DB page for that specific game so i've had to go in and manually import the media myself and apply them to each rom hack. Any idea what might be causing this? I've also come across a few games that are in the DB but aren't being pulled into the android app using the metadata matching the DB entry. 2 examples would be Kirby's Halloween adventure for NES and Final Fantasy 6: Return of the dark sorcerer for SNES (this one is listed as Return of the dark sorcerer in the DB but I've already submitted a change request on that one). Is there something about the way these rom hacks are keyed into the database that is preventing the android app from seeing them? edit: interestingly I was able to get these 2 to match this evening, possibly was just an issue with the db last night?

Hazelly Mores Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 So if you hadn't already bought it, there is now no way to access the beta? I would love to beta test this and provide comments because I adore the PC version, but I never bought it while it was available on the Play Store.

Android is free for 100 games or less and you can opt into the beta on the free version.
Vader Posted February 11, 2023 Posted February 11, 2023 @Jason Carr. Can you please check my license file for me. I tried to import it into a new device and it said an error occurred. Here is my license
Lordmonkus Posted February 11, 2023 Posted February 11, 2023 Don't ever post your license file online or share with others, it is a great way to get your license black listed and blocked from receiving updates. Email support@unbrokensoftware.com with any license related problems.

Also was it actually a Android license you were trying to add, or was it your Windows one, as that wont work either as they are sepperate licenses.
Vader Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 @Lordmonkus My apologies. I didn't research the topic properly. Won't happen again.

My license had expired. I just renewed it and all is good.
