-> when i add a game at this second launcher (using GUI), it "$^ù*ù$^ù"... botch (?).so the second (or more) launcher disappear from xbmc. If i correct the xml by hand, it's ok -> the launcher reappear. but if i add another game (by GUI) : return of the same effect.

Angelscry Wrote:Unfortunately, I was not able to reproduce the bug your describe here. I have manually add several launchers, manually add several games, deleted some games, add them by scanning, etc... I have encounter no error. Could you tell me exactly what you do when you obtain the error (step orders, roms file name, automatic or manually adding roms, etc...)? Could you also post here the xbmc_crashlog file and/or a screenshot. It will be helpful.

skeeto2010 Wrote:Hello all,

I have skimmed over most of the 93 pages of this thread and there is still an issue I must have missed when setting up Launcher. I have the Dharma 4 Vanilla release installed on my Revo 1600 and it seems to be working great.

I have installed Launcher v. 1.14 and when I run the add-on it asks for the location of the emulator I am trying to run. I have previously installed zsnes by opening a terminal to my Revo and using "apt-get install zsnes" and it appears to have installed but how do I point Launcher toward this new installation? Where exactly can Launcher find it? I assume this process will be the same for all emulators.

As you can tell I am a noob with Linux and any help is appreciated. All apologies if I have missed these directions elsewhere.

Thanks,
Rob

Angelscry Wrote:I think it will be to complicated, for me, actually, to do this. It seems that you are under Windows. If so, maybe you can try to create and use .BAT files to simply do it. For example :

First, create a launcher.bat file that will call other .BAT files. It will be your launcher.

launcher.bat

Code:

call %1

Then for each PC games create a corresponding .BAT file that will launch the game and put them into the same directory (named roms for example). Each .BAT files will be like this:

game1.bat

Code:

"C:\Program Files\game1\game1.exe"

game2.bat

Code:

"C:\Program Files\game2\game2.exe"

Then the launchers.xml file for your PC games will be like this :

launchers.xml

Code:

<launcher>

    <application>C:\Users\User\Documents\xbmc\launcher.bat</application>

It may works. It is a very long time that I have not use Windows. Maybe you will encounter some fullscreen transition problems. You have to found the good command line to launch the games. But if it works, it will do exactly what you want. You can maybe also ask your question into the Windows Specific Support forum. There is surely a better way to do it.

kevenz Wrote:Hi,

I'm trying to use this launcher to launch PCSX2 emulator....

I added the command line --nogui --fullscreen and everything works well.

The only problem is when I press Escape..... the emulator stops the game but stays in memory.

Is there any way to close it without pressing Alt+f4 ? thanks

jeff93063 Wrote:I have one question though. Would it be possible to put standalone launchers into a submenu, so that I can have PC games in a section just like I do for Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, etc?
