No change since paying for premium


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone  a quick question, I've downloaded the latest win app of launchbox then i paid for premium and put the key in to register the app. It shows registered but little has changed, I have to still put all the emulator details in etc. And all I have kids more choice on skins. Do I download a different version or is there something I'm missing as there's no difference since registering.

 

Mam thanks

Yeah things you are saying you are doing do not make sense. There is no "key" when you pay for a premium license that has to be entered and there is nothing to register. So maybe you are describing it incorrectly.

You download the app and pay for a license. You then get an email from our team with your License.xaml file. You take the License.xaml and place it in your \Launchbox folder and that is it. Next time you open you have the premium features.

What were you actually expecting to change when you purchased the license?

Correct, why would you think that would change? you still need to add your emulators and roms in order to play your roms in a emulator.

Premium Launchbox does add some features and skins is one of them, but the main thing it adds is Bigbox mode which is a TV/Cabinet mode designed for use with a controller. Bigbox mode can be launched from within the Launchbox UI, or directly from the bigbox.exe file in the Launchbox folder.

Hi I would expect it to stop linking back to the website every time it's launched and for it not to freeze when uploading/updating the media.

I no longer get video trailers in the latest version. The emulators I can deal with although it would be useful to have an automatic link to download the ones you want from GitHub or websites etc. But it's not advertised on your site, but it would be easier for newbies.

The themes on the pc version aren't as varied as the android version it seems, as I have the paid for android version last year and it works great. 

Big box is ok but there's no mouse support and on a Rog it would be useful. 

Some of the above are just suggestions as you asked what I'd expect, but the crashing in Win11 and constant web site pop up is annoying, is there an option to turn this off...

If you're referring to the welcome screen for new versions/installs there is a checkbox in the lower left to stop it from appearing, then press close button.

We can try to help you through this but premium doesn't change this process at all and you'd have seen it before making your purchase.

Again if you're more specific we can walk you through why you're not getting any, nothing has been changed in regard to the ability to grab them in a very long while.

Currently there are I believe 5 emulators that we do this for you. In the latest version (in beta) we have made it possible for users to create plugins that do the same so the number of emulators this will be possible for will only continue to grow. Again though, NOT a premium feature.

Not sure how you came to that conclusion as Android has FAR less themes than PC. If you don't see something you like in Themes Manager you can look on the forums for even more options.
