Launchbox Creating 2 of the same Platforms


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! I am trying to create a platform called 'Arcade Racers". When I go to add a rom and create and go through all the steps it creates 2 platforms that are identical. If I delete one, it deletes both. I have restarted launchbox and no matter what it does the same thing. Is there something I am missing?

I've never heard of this issue or seen it reported. What steps are you doing to add the game?

Add a rom, create platform and scraper and so on. Right after it shows 2 "Arcade Raceing" platforms. This is a platform with roms from different emulators as well. I've also never seen this issue either.

If you mean Skraper the app you need to verify it's not leaving "-backup" files in your \\LaunchBox\Data\Platforms folder. It's default settings do this and it really messes things up for the app. Also if you manually add a game and set the platform to what you want that process will make the platform if it doesn't exist. You shouldn't need to create it after the fact as well.

Oh I was meaning the scrapper built in to launchbox when you select or create a custom platfrom. For example if I add Outrun and put it in Arcade Racing and scrape it as arcade.

 

I'm a little confused (don't worry i always am) "add a rom create a platform" so you are not doing import/pick a platform?
