How to get games to launch for PS4

[Joe35car]

I have games working outside of Launchbox. I imported the eboot.bin. When I try to play the game it doesn't start. I tried adding the -g to command line and also tried -e and nothing works.

After they separated the GUI from the emulator (since v.0.12), you need to point to shadPS4QtLauncher.exe, not shadPS4.exe.

The command line should look like this:

-d -g

That's for the old version! Don't use that! The -f was for launching in fullscreen and that doesn't work with the launcher, for launching in fullscreen you have to mess with the launcher's settings.

The new launcher requires you to point to a shadp4.exe executable to use, the -d in the command line means it should use the default one you have downloaded with the launcher.

Hope that helps.

That did the trick. Thanks. One more thing. When I exit the game from launchbox it has a confirm popup from shadps4 if I want to close game or not. Hit x. Is there a setting in shadps4 to turn this off?
