RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - m7cky - 2012-06-05 Been using Advanced Launcher for a while now, t'is awesome! I'm a big fan of OnLive & launch it with AL but have always wanted to launch individual games but couldn't see how this would be possible, until today! Just read this article http://blog.onlive.com/2012/06/05/two-years-and-countin/ and am hoping that this will mean it will be possible after reading this; "A simple URL can launch any game without a signup or login". Hope I'm right, I'm going to give it a whirl tomorrow.

If no alternative title is indicated between {} we can still display "Disc #" information list. If an alternative title exist, just display this alternative title. That will be then the goal of the use to mention or not the "Disc" word into the alternative title. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2012-06-06 Version 1.8.7 : This new version of Advanced Launcher bring a really small display modification for multi-disc items. When alternative disc titles are provided into the filename Advanced Launcher do not longer display it like #### Disc but only display strings between {} brackets. For example, if your filenames are : Code: Gran Turismo 2 [SLUS-00748]{Arcade} cd1 Multi-disc display list will look like : ChangeLog :
RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2012-06-06 New multi-disc support into Advanced launcher bring also a simple way to manage different versions of a same game. For example if you have your roms named like this : Code: Secret of Mana (F).7z They will be displayed as different items into Advanced Launcher. But if some of you prefer to have one single entry for different version of a same game, you just have to rename them like this : Code: Secret of Mana {French Version} cd1.7z Then they will be displayed like this into Advanced Launcher : Want to change the display order? No problem. Just change the cd number at the end of the file : Code: Secret of Mana {French Version} cd3.7z And see the result : RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - g.scholtens - 2012-06-06 Can you use advanched launcer to play roms, or must i use rom collection browser?

What is the best scraper? I've got nes,nes64 and snes roms. There are a lot of scrapers i can choose from. And is there a quick wat to import your games and get the thumbs? I've about 2000 roms i think. But i took hours to import them. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2012-06-06 There is no best scraper. It dependent of the database, platform, and the rarity of the game. There is no explicit rule of faster website. I'm personally using :
RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - djfourmoney - 2012-06-07 I have Syphon Filter 2, are you putting the two disc games in a single folder? Also what theme are you using? RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2012-06-07 Yes, the two disc of the game must be located into the same folder to be recognized as multi-disc. The skin from my last screenshots is Cirrus Extended 2. RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - leftywhat - 2012-06-08 Just wondering, having some difficulties scrapping mame rom info, not sure why... I've set the scrapper setting to mameworld for nfo, thumbs and fanart but yea, its not picking the info/pics up. I haven't renamed the rom files etc either.

Edit: Seems like an old version hey... but I can't update it via XBMC? Can't select the "update" button, guess its a manual download repository? Edit2: Never mind, just un-installed, downloaded the repository "repository.angelscry.xbmc-plugins.1.2.0", and its now 1.8.7, cheers RE: [RELEASE] Advanced Launcher - Applications Launcher Addon for XBMC - Angelscry - 2012-06-08 (2012-06-08, 15:17)leftywhat Wrote:I would mean MameWorld.

Hope you're doing well. Unfortunately my htpc crashed not long ago, but I had advanced launcher set up perfectly before the crash. Luckily I still have the contents of the "plugin.program.advanced.launcher" folder and the xbmc roaming folder from my previous configuration. Is it possible to restore my advanced launcher to its previous glory without setting it up again since I have the old files? I had a ton of roms configured on it. I tried to directly copy and paste the "plugin.program.advanced.launcher" folder into my new XBMC/addons/ directory, but that didn't work. Any suggestions? Thanks a ton as usual. -urhos |
