no i havent public published it , it just a background at the moment. am trying to get a theme for consoles

You should definitely have media. close HyperHQ and right click and hit quit on the HQ icon in the system tray. Then reopen, if nothing downloads there’s a bug. you can try hitting refresh games in the mame games menu. That should go off and check for media. also you can try validating cache in HyperHQ settings cog top right of the progam.

Do you have a link to the theme you created in HyperTheme? im sure I tested it a while back but not recently. I may give it a try when I next poke around in HyperTheme

Hi As anyone got a theme working with there collection, i been trying for about a month and still can't get a theme to show up in hyperspin, i follow the instuction. When i go to collecion click the 3 dots on he rght and go to change the theme, the theme not there just a spining blue loading sign. if any one got it working an you explaine how please.

Thanks. That did it.

Try again.

Okay thank you. I can get some of the games to fire up in Mame outside of hyperspin. Still no artwork. I truncated the set to parents only and got rid of all the casino games, fruit games, quiz games, etc. Down to about 3000. Wondering why no MEDIA. Do I need to download the artwork or .dat, .ini, files separately from the ROMS/CHD's? I found: progetto-SNAPS Support Files So at this point there's no way to organize the games by system (NES, SEGA, etc) on the wheel in 2.0?

Thanks, but still no dice: Have reset my password, restarted everything, logged in/out etc. Just not working for me

First off does MAME run games outside of Hyperspin on your new computer. Secondly about the organisation, first try to use parent ROM settings when you set up MAME as this will have less game as the clones won't be visible. To further reduce the games you will eventually be able to use 'Collections' but as the software is beta that feature is not implemented yet.

Nothing, your status was wrong on your account so I have rectified it. Please try again.

Hi - I downloaded the above, but can't get past the login screen. Have checked my un + pw by logging into the forums + it's correct. What am I doing wrong?

So I have HyperHq and HyperSpin downloaded and setup, along with MAME emulator and ROM (unmerged) and CHD sets from MAME .284 loaded in (almost 1 TB of data). There's over 40,000 games, which is entirely overwhelming and none have any media according to HyperHQ and none will launch... The old computer I have running my cabinet arcade has Hyperspin 1.5 hyperspin has all the games organized nicely on the wheel by system. I am hoping to replicate that with the newer faster computer and updated game ROMS. Looking for advice on if I should try and figure out how to make this MAME set work or if it's easier to find and download Games in sets or individually. I have read through the DOCS extensively to try and figure out what I am missing to no avail. I am new to this setup effort and curious if others have had success with getting a large MAME ROM set uploaded and nicely organized with artwork and media in HyperHQ or if I might be better off loading in games individually or via another route.

Okay thank you. I'll go into Mame itself and see what I can sort out... appreciate the guidance.

Correct the roms don't matter on mame import. It just reads the game info from the mame game info not the roms themselves.

Thank you! I will dig into those Docs. So you think the issue I am having is in the HQ setup not the way I have the ROMS/CHDs saved?

Nice, most of your time configuring will be spent in HyperHQ. check out the Docs tab in the forum title bar. It’s really got most stuff covered now

Well I reinstalled all of the plugins and I got HyperSpin up working, but none of the games have any images and won't launch... there's also just a list of 40k+ games on the wheel... I am thinking perhaps the giant Mame .284 set is problematic... my old setup was nicely organized on the wheel by system. Was hoping to replicate that. Any help appreciated!

Oh man, sorry in advance or not being able to navigate this myself! I am having two issues now: First, the games in MAME .284 are all showing up but there's no artwork covers and maybe no media? I downloaded unmerged ROMS and CHD's. Saved them in the same root file under F:/ Mame .284. Second, when I try to launch Hyperspin or test/play now any game, nothing happens. Hyperspin won't launch. DO i need to download HS seperately from HyperHQ? I don't see a Hyperspin Program separate from HQ as I did on the old HS 1.5. Thanks in advance...

Oh man... I didn't mean to respond here. sorry.
