Dr.Know Wrote:I only ever made changes to fanart/thumbs within Advanced Launcher...no where else. And when I select a new thumb/fanart from what the scrapper gives me, it doesn't change in the launcher. When I go in the folder where that thumb/fanart is located, it's there...just not loading in Advanced Launcher.

It does sound like a caching issue....is there any way to clear the cache sooner than just waiting for it to happen?

Here's my pastebin of launchers.xml anyway: http://pastebin.com/LTcKy4Vy

• Import from... : will automatically import an image using form the selected thumbnails scraper, using thumb region and image size limit criteria. The image will be saved into the folder defined by the launcher thumbnail path parameter;
  
• Import Local Image : will browse and import a local image. This image will be saved into the folder defined by the launcher thumbnail path parameter;
  
• or Select Local Image : to browse and assign a local image. This image will not be saved into the folder defined by the launcher thumbnail path parameter but only linked?

Angelscry Wrote:That's not normal. Do you have this problem with all your thumbs or fanart images? I wil try to found time to check this problem on my side. Maybe last versions of Advanced Launcher have bring some little bugs... Which option do you exactly use to change the thumbs or fanart images :

• Import from... : will automatically import an image using form the selected thumbnails scraper, using thumb region and image size limit criteria. The image will be saved into the folder defined by the launcher thumbnail path parameter;
  
• Import Local Image : will browse and import a local image. This image will be saved into the folder defined by the launcher thumbnail path parameter;
  
• or Select Local Image : to browse and assign a local image. This image will not be saved into the folder defined by the launcher thumbnail path parameter but only linked?
  

I'm not sure it is related. You can try to make the switch and see if it affect the caching system...

Dr.Know Wrote:Was advanced launcher updated recently? If so, I think there's a bug...

atsumori Wrote:First, it bothered me that PC games wasn't under it's own launcher (of course, since it's not an emulator). If this bothers anyone else, this is how you get around it:

atsumori Wrote:I also made a logo to go with Angelscry's set:


I also needed some MAME/Arcade icons for my setup which you guys are free to use. They aren't my best work but it beats having no logo.

http://sdlmame.wallyweek.org/repository/

Setup rom paths etc and launcher launches the game, mame starts to load the rom, gets to 100% then quits and returns back to xbmc. What am i doing wrong ?

butchabay Wrote:@Angelscry
Yeah the logos are in the extras folder, but the idea is to localize them in game path folder which is in cirrus extended skin settings. The Logos are taken from Kisuan's Night purity as he was the first having this great idea! There are just 5 or 6 Logos at the moment, but surely growing if simeone has the skills to create such great clearart logos.
Also big changes overall in cirrus extended v2 which i'm working on every free minute. So stay tuned and watch out in the cirrus thread the next few days.

Angelscry Wrote:Mame needs that you indicated into its mame.ini file where are located the roms like below :

Code:

...
rompath                   $HOME/.mame/roms
samplepath                $HOME/.mame/samples
...

If it is not indicated, Mame is not able to start roms.

danz0l Wrote:Where would mame.ini be located for sdlmame ? In /home/xbmc/.mame i only have

./mame/cfg/default.cfg
./mame/cfg/empty.cfg

I tried creating a mame.ini in that directory but it didnt seem to make a difference.
