Improve Startup, Shutdown, and Pause screen functionality for games with launchers

Issue #7531 new
Conner Houghtaling created an issue

Hello. I was wondering if you could add support for windows games with launchers. It should, theoretically be an easy change but I have no idea how this stuff works. The way I would do it is have an option when you Edit a game, and under Launching there would be a checkmark box that says “Game uses a Launcher”.

When you select that, it will then not say “Game Over” and go back to Launchbox when you press play in the launcher. You would just have to program startup screens to ignore the first window’s closure and only use the second. Does that make sense?

    As some one who uses their LB for PC games as much or more than retro I can feel your pain. It is definitely something I’d like to look into at some point
