BigBox: Turn off "Game Over" Screen for Windos Games?

[RobertBlum]

Hello, how can I turn off the "Game Shutdown Screen" for Windows Games? It always shows "Game Over".

Normally i can do that in the "Manage Emulators" settings (Startup/Shuttdown Screen) but there are no settings for normal Windows Games.

So how to do?

2 options:

Per game - Edit the game

 

To change all at once for several or all games, select the games, at the bottom of the LaunchBox window, click Edit to start the Bulk Edit Wizard.

It would be great if we could also edit the delay length of the startup screen in the bulk edit window

As Rafiki said to Simba... "Look harder..."

 

If you need to set it for all games using a certain emulator, you can set it in the emulator.

If the games don't use an emulator, there's the above Bulk Edit option.

If you need more than a 30 second delay for some reason, you can set that per game, multiple games or per emulator using this plugin.  But it maxes out at 5 minutes.

Thanks.  I will wipe the tears from my eyes, drink some kiefer,  compose myself, and look much harder next time. Lol.

I wouldn't worry about asking. 😁

LaunchBox/BigBox now has so many settings and options that no one can keep up with them! While a searchable wiki or manual would be beneficial for both older and new users, development continues at a high pace. However, as a seasoned developer, I understand why this isn't a reality yet.
