I watch LB videos then I put in the emulators and games, yes the games go to the front end but that’s it.

So it’s much easier just to use the emulators because they work unlike LB and Big Box ?

The frotend does not work ? While the emulators do work.

LB and BB work fine. Issues like this typically mean you likely have a setting wrong. 

Give an example of a platform you imported and the emulator you are using. Screen captures of you LB emulator settings would help. Show the main details page and the Associated platforms page.

Well not to be disrespectful I find the frontend not user friendly, I paid for the service although it does not work, even my games from Steam don’t work on the LB frontend, so I just use the emulators it’s easier for all my roms.

I do watch the vids but the roms won’t work honestly but thankyou Reto808 your a top man.

You are not being disrespectful at all and it is understandable to be somewhat frustrated if things are not functioning correclty. However, stating the frontend does not work is inaccurate. Not working for you, sure, but that is a set-up issue not a program issue.  

Not sure which videos you are watching, but many can be and are outdated so how they might show to set things up could have changed. Even on our Youtube channel things have changed since many videos were made. 

If you do not want any help figuring out what is wrong with your set-up no worries. Whenever you are ready, my initial request for information still stands. We can definitely get you sorted.

Have to say if this were a few years ago i dare say you would be even more "hopeless" in your endeavors. Things have come a long way both with emulation and LB/BB.

I will say though that LB and BB are hands down THE easiest to setup. Its very lazy on our part. It really practically does it all for you. The devs kinda built it that way. And its always improving. You literally just have to tell it where to look for stuff.

There are plenty of people here who would help. Even if your question seems daft and silly. If you don't know the answer, someone will. Once it clicks it really is a breeze. 

If you give us an example of an issue, im sure it would be sorted in no time.

Honestly hang in there and stick with it 🙏

It really is worth it.

I like to be independent, although the games do work with their Emulators ? Although putting them into LB is proving difficult I have the games showing in LB although they do not work?

I like this community and I would very much like to be a part of it.
