Running 2.9.0 core and 1.0.0 launchbox integration plugin, along with launchbox 13.25. I still can not get nfc launching in bigbox to work. If I run launchbox, nfc launching works from a reader or the iphone app, if I run bigbox, the positive read sound is there but nothing launches from the nfc reader, or wont launch from the iphone app.

I use LaunchBox to manage the game library, but use BigBox as the main frontend to run games on my cab.

BTW, it appears that 2.3.1 was the last version BigBox worked with. I stepped through every released version after and it no longer worked after 2.3.1.

I have both the CLI Launcher and Zaparoo plugin installed

I’ll make sure it gets added back

Not right now. I’ll think about it. Basically just never designed Zaparoo for playing videos only games at the start, so no controls like that yet
