LaunchBox is a relatively easy to set up frontend for DOSBox. It has plenty
of options and is very pleasing to the eyes.
New features for the actual app include an Options dialog with some quick
debugging options for games, new Version and Game Manual fields, and even
further optimizations that yet again significantly speed up the application.
LaunchBox v5.0 Changelog:
- New Premium Feature: New Big Box Mode home theater view is perfect for
home theater, game cabinets, etc.
- New Feature: Images, Videos, Music, and Manuals are now automatically
found and associated with your games when named by title or file name and
placed in the proper folders
- New Feature: New platform management functionality allows you to edit
platforms and their associated metadata and images
- New Feature: New default platform images primarily thanks to bd000, but
also thanks to scree and the rest of the forums community
- New Feature: Images can now be stored wherever you wish, based on
platform, in the Add/Edit Platform dialog
- New Feature: A new "attempt to hide console window on startup/shutdown"
option has been added to emulators. This will keep the ugly black boxes
from showing up for certain emulators; it works especially well for MAME,
MESS, and Retroarch.
- Improvement: Added default emulator settings for VisualBoyAdvance-M (Game
Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance)
- Improvement: Added default emulator settings for Kega Fusion SG-1000
- Improvement: The images folder has been restructured to make it much
easier to use existing image collections. LaunchBox will automatically
find and associate images using game title or file name.
- Improvement: LaunchBox has been translated into Simplified Chinese,
Brazilian Portuguese, and French, thanks to cyanjiang, AFaustini, and
Wattoo from the forums!
- Improvement: Various presentation issues with high DPI environments have
been fixed
- Fixed: In some cases game controllers would stop responding after
returning to LaunchBox from a game
- Fixed: In rare cases on some systems LaunchBox occassionally froze on
startup
