damageinc86 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Ohhhhh,,, Bezels huh? Only thing left after that is keymapper (joy2key profiles for game entries), and a full pause menu with all save states available. Then I can finally ditch Rocketlauncher. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usslindstrom Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Would love a drag and drop function for images on the web for box art. Way too many steps to get art on titles where it's missing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullfrog Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Personally, I would love to see a Full Set Importer for FinalBurn Neo, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCAT Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 For the record, I wanted to select "none" for where I use LaunchBox. I was using it on a media PC running Windows but have since switched that machine to Linux and am using something else until LB is a little more stable on Linux. Still voted though as I'm excited for some of these features once I'm back up and running. Thanks for asking our opinions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tintedglass Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I just desperately want LauchBox to automatically update with Amazon/Epic/Ubi/Steam etc. like Playnite does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tintedglass Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Also an option in Big Box to hide 'uninstalled'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never said anything about difficult just mentioning that Skraper is notorious for corrupting LB xml files. If you have already developed part of it than you could always offer it as a plug-in for LB. Screenscraper is one of those slow websites. I have the maximum threads so at least it was faster when scraping with software for it when I was on RB. But when you go on the website to manually figure some stuff it's a pain in the rear. One thing I know is that id like to never have to return to that resource ever. I hope that people will just put time in the LB database from now on which wont happen realistically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombdog Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I'd still like to see Itch.io scraping, even if it's from the 'local' database of the games you've personally downloaded/added in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I find that, especially with the C64. Especially with the files from gamebase. They have a weird naming system for their files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superdavit Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Really wish there was a better, graphic-based way to customize the controllers for various systems through LaunchBox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except LB does not and probably won't ever map your controllers in the emulators themselves. There would be way too much work and effort to get mappings for every controller and system.

PanteraZombie Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 There's definitely some interesting things on the poll this year, just wanted to add some input and a question or two... Screensaver for BigBox: At first thought I didn't really care for this idea, but this would actually be a nice option to use in place of Attract Mode. I would probably more prefer BigBox to stay on a highlighted game so I'm not somewhere completely different if I leave for a little while. As far as what it will show, I would like it to either loop the selected video preview of that particular game... or the option to cycle through all videos associated with that game (snap, theme, trailer, recording). Not really interested in an image slide show, but that option would be nice to have too. Online social/syncing features: I've been wanting more of this for a while, the MAME High Score feature was a great start to this. I'm not real sure what all is being considered for the "more online" capabilities, or what's even realistic... but I would imagine some sort of real time friends list using our current LaunchBox names/accounts that can access MAME High Scores (of course), direct or group messaging, and online play/invite system (possibly integrating a 3rd party like FightCade) etc. This might even be something that should be built as "LaunchBox Online" app that can be used on a phone or tablet in conjunction while playing on your preferred device. It would be less messy and more convenient to use both at the same time. Not to mention you can get push notifications. 3D Box Models in BigBox: This could also be interesting to include 3D renders of arcade cabinets! Whether it's a 3D arcade cabinet or console game box, selecting to view full screen and having the ability to make it rotate would be really cool! Integration of the Bezel Project: Let's say you download all bezel media and it applies to all systems applicable... would it be possible to disable and re-enable bezels, or furthermore... disable only select systems?

Damsbo Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 No High Score for Limited Groups feature option? 😕 https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/6640/high-scores-for-limited-groups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "friends" part of the limited group would need to be implemented before you can make it only show those friends. I personally want to see how I stack up against the community on different games, not just a few friends. That being said, I would like to see like an icon next to a name or a highlight over the name that I would be friends with on the MAME High Score boards. An extra tab only showing friends would also work well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Jason doesn't see a feasible way to implement then there is no point in putting it on the poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tvgold Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Would loooooove Linux support, I'm waiting for my place in the steam deck queue and would love to use Launchbox instead of having to use their gamemode, not to mention on Desktop where i currently run Arch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
