Hello Mcfly.

thank you for your Informations.

Is it possible, that you give us a list with platforms and the used emulator? :)

Skinn0r

There isn't a way to pull this information from LB... sorry... plus, there's too many to go through and type out. You may be interested to know that there are several platforms that have no emulator as yet, these are collected and kept for future emulators should they become available. Honestly, Google gave me all the information I needed.

They are a bit of overkill.  Only useful if you're building romsets from a list or something.  For practical purposes, they are worthless as you'll have non-working games, trashy hacks, and duplicates of a lot of games.  However, some revisions you'll find are actually different a bit, certain things ARE changed, but a lot of the time, its only bug fixes.  Sometimes it matters though, there are a few things removed from certain games... but.,. yeah.

I use TOSEC for many computersystems, since No Intro lacks a lot of these systems and even if they are included, there sometimes aren't that many games. TOSEC on the othe rhand has a lot of (maybe even a complete?) set ofgames for almost any computer system. And the best part is that they are separated from Application roms for any given system. Mame Software Lists are also an option, but here the apps are mixed in with the games, which is not ideal. Also with TOSEC, you can easily just search for beta versions of a rom and delete them from the set. Duplicate Versions of games are usually combined together when importing into launchbox, so hat's not a big problem either.

I used to use goodsets just for the hacks, but I found that there are so many different versions for the same hack and a lot of them are not completed, so I don't use goodsets anymore. At some point I will manually create the completed hacks myself (this will take forever though).

Nice collection but you must have a lot of the same game like different version and different regions. Hard to think that there's that many different games. 

That's my goal - collect everything, regardless of differences or imperfections. I hope to share my collection as an archive at the end of this so everything is preserved in perpetuity. Retro gaming needs to be preserved and I hope to help in that effort. There's no way I'll be able to play this many titles, and that isn't what I'm trying to achieve. This isn't a collection for me, ultimately.

that is a pretty awesome list. but my question is how do you know what to scrape them as in launchbox?

Honestly, unless it's fairly obvious there's a bunch of googling and guesswork. I'm pretty sure I've got some wrong as the process continues, but as time progresses I'm getting better. Some will be re-done as I update, which will likely never end as new and better emulators / systems become available... This isn't by any means a finished project and likely never will be.

I'm looking to get into game archiving as well at some point. I kind of have the same aspirations of "Gotta 'collect' them all".  One of the earlier posts mentioned something about having ROMs for systems that aren't playable. Take this suggestion with a grain of salt as I'm a total noob, but have you tried networking with another archiver that goes by KrisCoolMod?

He has a setup that spans over 100K+ titles (used to be 200K), with over 800+ wheels on a custom Hyperspin backend. It's called the Retrobeast. His platform spans a wider range of more recent platforms and consumes 96TB of space. The legality of what he offers aside, he is actively and ongoing providing tweaks and optimization for the whole platform. He might be a solid resource for getting or finding a way to make those more obscure platforms playable. That's kind of his specialty.

He has his own website, Discord, and posts videos of his setup on YouTube. I've thought about getting his setup just as a jumping off point, but life and finances keep getting in the way, lol.

I have been researching different front ends to use for starting my own library. Several forums have posters commenting that Launchbox/Bigbox becomes increasingly slower the larger your library is. Examples mentioned were staggered loading of meta data in the menu select screens, slow to complete updates for Launchbox, responsiveness in loading a game to play.

 

With having as large of a library as you have, could you share your experiences, if any, with Bigbox as a front end?

It is interesting to see this different interests in this hobby like those who love collecting and will never touch half the games and those who want a curated list of games have just arcade or just the platforms they grew up with. I owned a video game arcade in the 80s, so primarily play those and imagine I am back there with the music blasting and black lights over the pinball game section. I spent a lot of time starting with huge and whittling things down, but I think I am going to start over from scratch again. So much has changed in just 2 or 3 years since I was gaming regularly and then just stepped back during Covid. Most people probably did just the opposite! ;)

I have also experienced this. For a long time now I've had BigBox run at startup instead of Explorer which did help with a lot of the sluggishness. I also found that caching in both BB and LB help enormously too. My system takes about 40 minutes to boot into BigBox but when everything is cached and the system is not running anything else, it's beautiful to watch. I take backups of both my cache folders weekly as I don't want to start again... :D 

 

I have an Octocore AMD running 32GB with an EVGA Geforce 1070 video card. It's all running on an Asus motherboard with liquid cooling as well.

I kinda took a break during Covid but I didn't stop. My overall objective from 6+ years ago was to collect everything, and that won't change. I will at some point donate everything to an online archive so these are all preserved forever. I have no intention of playing them all or even knowing if the obscure systems work as they should or used to as emulators are being written constantly for every system imaginable. All of the original games and other software titles need to be available to everyone for historical reasons. These are the foundations of where we are as a digital society and they won't be lost, at least if I have any say in it.

Well, I finally ordered a replacement to a 14 year old laptop. I have been digging around on where to jump in for some time now. The new machine is still a laptop but a pretty beefy one with a mobile 4090 and Ryzen 9 7945HX. So, once I get it in and set up, I'd be very interested in connecting with you on how to add to this archive. I've read this thread a few times, and to be honest, there feels like a greater thrill in me at the prospect of organizing and collecting the data more than utilizing it. So, if you are open to some support, let me know. Maybe we can connect on where to put the archive and start working in different directions for compiling material you haven't archived yet?

I've reached out to https://gamehistory.org/ and I'm waiting for a reply. I'm sure anything you have will be a welcome addition for them.

They got back to me and said " We are unable to take downloaded games: as a library, we have to have everything obtained legally from a game's rightsholder in order to be able to use it, so the games either need to be purchased by us or we have to have original physical copies. "
 Until this requirement is removed I'm going to have to find another way... or create my own. I think their requirement, although understandable in terms of legalities, does nothing for preservation.

I wrote to them inquiring about access parameters to their archive about two months ago. I never received a response. While not the answer you were looking for, I do understand. Their board members are comprised of people that run other companies with a heavy hand in the gaming industry  (Digital Eclipse being a big one). They're trying to change the game from the inside out, but the litigation surrounding copyrights and ownership for gaming in whole or part of digital media has been extremely wide and vague in scope for the first 40 years of gaming. It's a tumultuous undertaking to say in the very least. Barring some very creative piece of legislation being created in the near future, preservationists best bet is to acquire and save ROMs until the copyright license gets rendered open use. Sadly, that puts media created in the 1960s as only 'potentially' available in about 20 years from now!

So, to the underground for the rest of us!

The one unique thing about your collection that will make you an outlier is your inclusion of 'hacks & mods'. Purists will not see any benefit to this. And, it's a devisive strategy. However, I consider things like "Mega Man 3 for the PC, Nudalities for MKII, and level packs for Doom 2" to be examples of this same type of material. These have had and still have a place in our gaming history. The biggest challenge will be how one decides to organize and market that material. In the right light, I think this material can genuinely add flair to people's archive and playing experience.
