When you launch a game from Launchbox if you get an error message repeat Step 5 just to double check it. Now you can go back into each game and reverse Step 2 to disable "Display command line" After you click apply it will popup with a message saying you need to specify and emulator do you want to do this now, click no. Go to the emulation tab and uncheck "Use an emulator to play this game". Step 5) Right click the game and click edit. Step 4) Drag the bat file into Launchbox and put into whatever platform you choose.

Step 3) Open the batch file you created for the game in notepad you just copied the command line information from and paste it in and save. The game will launch but just exit back out. Now when you start that game it is going to popup with a bunch of text, select it all and copy. The bottom drop down menu "Display command line", set this to Enabled, click apply and ok. Open your DaphneLoader.exe and for each game you have and want to import into Launchbox click the Configure button and go to the Advanced tab. Step 2) This step will be repeated for each game. I made these batch files right in the directory which contains the daphne.exe Step 1) Make a batch file for each game, call the batch file whatever you like. It may not be an elegant solution but it is simple and it works as long as you have your games loading through the DaphneLoader.exe. Here's a quick and simple way to get your Daphne games working in Launchbox. Of course per original post if you want really good looking cab experience, you will need bigbox which is premium. That's cool just dable with it, and any major issues just post and we will help as much as we can. from this and other posts I've glanced through it seems like a great forum :-) I'll have to get back on it a little later though.
SETTING UP MAME HYPERSPIN FULL
I'll have to get Winvice to launch in full screen and attempt a auto hotkey file. so adding some info in the editing tab and successfully copied appropriate artwork from my HS files. I don't follow the standard for this emulator. a few minor problems so far but that is because of the filename guidelines I've chosen. With the minimal time I have so far this seems like it will be so much more user friendly than HS. binge test all the roms and make all deletions first.
SETTING UP MAME HYPERSPIN DOWNLOAD
Maybe before I do a full blown MAME import I will do one and not download any artwork. Just trying to get some reassurance that I wont have to invest another 1000 hours getting everything set up again.

I'm sure I'll have many more questions if I make the change over and will be happy to purchase the forever license. #6 So there is Launchbox and now I see BigBox. #5 How easy is Daphne to set up? I remember it being a PIA on HS. Safe to assume I can pick and choose games lists for each emulator and only display what I actually have roms for? #4 I'm not the type that wants 15 terabytes and 75000 roms on my machine. Can I do this or something similar with LB? I have an AHK file for each C64 game I need to do this with. I could make that act as a D with the AHK file. So with the AHK file I could simply reassign a couple of the player one buttons to use this commands. So for example the game Spelunker would require the use of the D, F, and Space Bar buttons. So I had reassigned buttons to be used on specific C64 games using AHK files. However the Commodore 64 relied on the keyboard quite a bit for many games. #3 All of my controls are obviously assigned keyboard commands which is basically set up for MAME. Will I be able to use any of my existing artwork and files that I spent way to much time putting together or will I have to reacquire all of this stuff for Launchbox? #2 I noticed in the demo I watched on youtube that the systems and games have themes. #1 Will I still be able to control all of my lighting the same way with LED Blinky? Including color specific lighting on a per game basis especially MAME where it automatically knows the original colors. My primary use is MAME probably 90% followed by Commodore 64 at 9% with a minimal use of Daphne, Bally Astrocade, and maybe some NES/SNES. My lighting and servos are controlled by LEDBlinky. All of my controls are from Ultimarc and includes 2 servos to toggle the 1 and 2 player joysticks from 4way to 8way. All lighted buttons with a spinner and lighted trackball. Love it aside from the fact that its insanely over complicated and doesn't always work right.
