dugan26 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Hi All - Has anyone ever seen the files Donkey Me - It's donkey kong original with different "skins" like Star Wars etc ... Is there a way to integrate this into Launchbox / BB? Looks like its an executable all bundled up in one file. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Beats Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Drag the EXE to LB, in the wizard that appears select "None of the Above" and go through the import wizard like you would doing anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dugan26 Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 Hi - Followed instructions (i think) Dragged it the exe into LB followed the none of the above directions and went through wizard When selecting Donkey Me ..... LB and BB both launch a windows window instead of playing the game. LB and BB do the same thing What did i do wrong? See pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 As it's an executable, check that the Emulation tab under the game's Edit Game has the "Use an emulator to play this game" box unchecked. And then set it up under the Launching tab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dugan26 Posted January 24 Author Share Posted January 24 oops - thanks but same results this is the correct path ---- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dugan26 Posted January 24 Author Share Posted January 24 Never mind! Solved --- Thank You - User error - i had two versions of it and was pointing to wrong one .... Deepest apologies - that worked!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dugan26 Posted January 24 Author Share Posted January 24 May i be bold enough to ask one more question? Having this one game in BigBox as a stand alone is a bit odd - Can i group this into another category? Like Arcade ? or something else? How can i move this into something else, instead of having one game on my BB wheel? This may be a stupid question but ----- I am almost there! so figured i give it a try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spycat Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 If you add it to your Windows platform you'll be able to scrape metadata and download images from the LaunchBox Games Database for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
