Amazing update, like my own personal Steam library for my retro games! Just wondering if it could technically be possible in the future for the network drive support feature to add Google Drive storage as an option? 

Thanks for the kind words! 😊 It’s certainly possible, though cloud storage services like Google Drive have historically caused issues with LaunchBox, as they can create locks on specific files the app needs to access.

If you’re asking in relation to syncing your save games, this is something we’re actively considering. It’s a fairly hefty project, but we’d love to eventually offer seamless save syncing across LaunchBox builds.

Great update, but Launchbox 1.16 seems to crash when rotating my device & media isn't always loading when highlighting a game, the text will load but the media will still be showing the previous game.

anyone else having these issues?

 

Which theme view are you using? Did you make sure the update any custom themes to their latest versions?

Yes, I have tried a fresh install of 1.16 with updated themes, still the same issues unfortunately.

Edit: looks like it might just be the emblem theme, others seem to be OK.

Launchbox still crashes when rotating device though.

 

Edit2: Spoke to soon, other theme are doing the same bug
