I'm on the dreaded Taito Type X/2 segment of my emulation drive rebuild
Hopefully it will be kind to me.... 0 -

Done. Phew. The only one I cant get working is Raiden IV (it throws up an error when it detects the screen is rotated). Will do some homework on it, glad the rest of them are done, have been dreading that system.0 -

TONS of Retroarch work done today. Mostly setting Launchbox up in such a way that I can use different configs for the same core, ie, the Megadrive core is the same one that plays GameGear. So when I want a GameGear game to play, it boots up the game, with the GameGear overlay picture, the screen centered where it should be, and the correct shader for that system. When I play a Megadrive game, I want none of that, just a fullscreen 4:3 image with the right shader for that system.
Normally you can't do this, as once the core is configured a certain way, that's really it. Launchbox uses a wonderful feature called --appendconfig though, where you can push custom settings per Platform, rather then by core.
TLDR, if you have this problem you'll know what I mean, ask me for help if you need it

Yeah it'd be more of an exercise in emulation out of interest than something I'd be using.
I was actually looking at PVM SDI to component converters on eBay the other day. Was thinking of having my HD content coming out of the LMD LCD and then going over to the BVM just to see what it looks like as a matter of interest. (aKA an excuse to buy more silly broadcast equipment!)0 -

Inviere have you ever tried coin ops on the PC ?
A new version released a few days ago apparently and it supposed to be better than Launchbox??
No never looked into it, as LB does everything I need of it very easily. What does Coin ops offer? 0 -

Have it installing now. It's a 20 gb install with 1136 roms.
Tested it on my main pc and it just seems to do everything without any setup.
Going to try it on the nuc and see how it runs.0 -

Sounds like you have a preconfigured build with the config all done and roms included, ie, a portable install. You could get same for Launch Box in, em, places, I’d say I’d say two things about going this route
1) Without having done any of the sometimes tedious setup, figuring out issues, and learning how to use the program, you’re kinda goosed when it comes to adding new systems and/or fault finding. People used to grab preconfigured HyperSpin builds years ago, and be left scratching their heads when they needed to change or add something.
2) I feel like I’ve contributed to LB by buying a license. The preconfigured builds often use pirated licenses with old builds that lack new features etc.0 -

Thanks for the heads up.Ive used coinops on the xbox original before and to be completely honest it just worked.
This new coinops on pc gives me that same warm fuzzy feeling ie install it and just leave it!!!
I think its more of a compliment to Launchbox rather than a replacement if Im honest. This combined with my redream drive and LB and I think I have almost the prefect setup.
Now Im just waiting on my arcade controls to arrive!!!0 -

Redream plays beautifully with LB, you should see if you can tie it into Coin Ops for an even more seamless experience 0 -

Well, close enough
There's a cracking shader called "dot" which gives the image a very close approximation of the dot matrix lcd display like in the GameBoy etc. There's another one which emulates the motion blur, but that's only for masochists0 -
