RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - aNILEator - 2013-02-08 Angelscry Wrote:Create a ncdz-launcher.bat file into the same directory as the started application (example : ncdz.exe) like this one: Clever stuff, I have no experience with programming and have only done very bare minimum cmd prompt launching and usage etc. I don't want to clutter this thread up with explanation but it was my understanding that this would work it's way through line by line. What is it that stops the script from launching line 3, right after it's opened the application? Also how would this help for occasionally using a physical psx disc in a physical drive? Or am I trying to overcomplicate things having a 'Launch Disc' item amongst the rom lists, when the simple answer is to create another PSX launcher that doesn't use the %rom% argument? ------------------------------------------ ADDITION: Just hit that addony error and lost my launchers while adding fanart to resident evil. I smiled very much being able to re-instate a backup from 2 seconds previously from the addon settings As my own precaution prior to last update, after scanning files to launchers, I've also exported their nfo's and saved art so it wouldn't take hours importing data for whole collections again should I lose it all again Sadly much of my scraped rom data is incorrect, I just set all scrapers to auto and left it to it, there was no way I was manually managing my way through 3 confirmations per rom with whole collections per console! 3000+ pop ups to go through, select and confirm every GBA rom? No thanks! I'll probably end up deleting every sports game across all consoles... 1 football/basketball/hockey/baseball/racing game isn't going to offer anything or play very different to any others, and would save a substantial amount of hard drive space and time navigating lists/importing files etc! Is there a database/list somewhere of opinions on superior platform per game? eg THPS3 = PS2 > N64, Mortal Kombat = Sega > Nintendo Because that could save some time and space too as well as give me new console/game suggestions RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2013-02-08 (2013-02-08, 00:20)locoguano Wrote: Purely a cosmetic concern here...To avoid XBMC switch into windowed mode you have to :

So the third line is started when the emulator is closed. (2013-02-08, 01:04)aNILEator Wrote: Also how would this help for occasionally using a physical psx disc in a physical drive?Effectively, if you want the play physical disc you just have to create a specific launcher/script that will start your emulator with a specified cd/dvd drive.

No thanks!The automatic scraping will never be perfect. The scraping quality also mostly depend how close to their title your rom files are named. It will also depend of a scraper/database you are using. Personnaly I'm using Allgame for data, and GameFAQs or MobyGames for thumbs and fanart images. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - locoguano - 2013-02-08 That did it.. thanks! RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2013-02-08 Version 1.12.1 This new version of Advanced Launcher fix some minor display bug related to the last added backup feature. It will also try again to fix the problem related to the launchers.xml file corruption, by some replacing "Container.Refresh" calls by some "Container.Update" ones. This will reduce the number of launchers.xml file acces, and maybe be reduce the number of chance of corruption. Finally this version clean all the log returns send to the xbmc.log file... to prepare the next version of Advanced launcher which is planned to include a full and more complete debug report log.
