faeran Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Hi everyone, The first beta for 1.15 has been released. You can opt into the beta within LaunchBox for Android by going into Option and turning on the Update to Beta Releases option. If a beta release is available, you will get prompted each time the app opens up. Full Changelog: https://www.launchbox-app.com/android-about/change-log Beta 1: Dolphin can now be automatically downloaded and installed when launching a Nintendo GameCube or Nintendo Wii game (if it's not installed already); this makes it super easy to get up and playing without the need for a user to set up Dolphin separately The "Manage RetroArch" section has now been changed to "Manage Emulators", and just like RetroArch, you can now download, install, and update Dolphin with a touch of a button Full emulator support added for: MelonDS, and MelonDS Nightly A Stretch Background Videos setting has been added to both Platform View Settings and Game View Settings Beta 2: A new method of adding custom emulators has been added. Use the "Custom Emulator (With Code)" option, within your Emulator Settings, which can leverage existing emulator launch code from other frontends Managing your Android app library has become easier! A new "Manage Apps" section lets you choose which apps appear within LaunchBox. Find it under the Android platform menu or the Options menu Sorting by Star Rating is now more accurate. When your games lack personal ratings, LaunchBox will use community star ratings to sort LaunchBox now gracefully handles your library in a less destructive way when exceeding the 100-game limit without a license Resolved an issue with the Dolphin integration, introduced in beta 1, caused by recent changes to Dolphin's website and app version handling Thanks to everyone willing to help us beta test these releases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cult Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Any additional word on when we can expect Vita support? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on our list, but it will be a while before we can get to it as it requires a number of dependencies to be in place before that emulator can be tackled. It will also require a special import process that's different than anything else we currently have right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't sure if there was a manual way to reinstall it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can enable the "Show Android Apps" option on the Options page. Then click the "Manage Android Apps" option and add the games you want to see inside the Android section. Let us know if this helped you. Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhuk59 Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Hi, is it possible to download 3D box art, 3D cart image? 3D looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolvez Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 New here, so I hope this is in the right spot. When I switched to this version the streaming videos from youtube now doesn't seem to be working? Is this a known issue? Or do I need to change some settings? Also is there a way to get NetherSX2 to show up, or is it not supported? Sorry if these are obvious answers but I've looked and can't find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quite possible there were changes on the YT side which broke something. Whatever the case, if it's not working, we'll see what we can do about fixing it up for next release.

cult Posted November 17 Share Posted November 17 Yes, should we be expecting an update before the end of the year? Been wondering if this is still being actively developed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been wondering if this is still being actively developed. Yes, still very much in active development. We have an update that is nearly ready to come out of the oven, so expect some news on this very soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewSpec Posted December 2 Share Posted December 2 I've just updated to the new beta (1.16-beta-1) after I saw the update popup It's crashing everytime. There was only one proper starup - the first afer update with the theme one time upgrade process. After that, I can't do anything - it crashes.
