mrfomt found that the order of the rom extension mattered (and is a bug). He moved his extension (gcm) to the front and dolphin worked. I need to look into ps2 emus next.

So I finally got around to trying out the new beta5 HyperSpin and everything looks and works good. The only two emulators I'm now having trouble with that worked previously is Dolphin and now Nethersx2. Before Nethersx2 I was previously using Aethersx2 before the dev abandoned it, for the most part the same HyperSpin settings from Aethersx2 also launches Nethersx2 through HyperSpin, except now games don't auto start like they use to, it just brings me to the bios screen now. In Aethersx2 the fix was to add "bootPath" to the parameters line then games would start, those parameters no longer work with Nether so I'm unsure what goes there now. With Dolphin I'll either get taken to the main home screen, get a error message or the emulator would just crash. I've posted settings I've previously used.

@rondar, seems that the latest update I received this morning has fixed my issue.

Hey everyone! It’s been a busy stretch lately, and we’ve been putting a lot of work into making HyperSpin faster, smoother, and a lot more flexible to use day to day. This update pulls together some of the biggest changes we’ve been working on, including faster browsing, Hybrid Mode 2, smarter Steam importing, stronger save state tools, HyperOverlay, and a long list of fixes and quality-of-life improvements across the board. Let’s dive in! Faster Browsing, Hybrid Mode 2, and Better Performance We’ve also done a lot of work on the feel of browsing and launching, especially for bigger libraries and cabinet-style setups. Better performance, startup and large-library browsing both got major optimization work so everything feels faster and more responsive Hybrid Mode 2, there is now a second hybrid-style browsing mode for users who want a more banner-driven library view Better banner fitting and smoother resizing, follow-up work made Hybrid Mode 2 cleaner on screen and improved how the game size slider feels while resizing large views You can now collapse the sidebar for a wider view in all view modes. Better large-library handling, grid layout and virtual scrolling improvements make browsing big collections feel more responsive Spotlight search, finding games and systems is much quicker now with a controller-friendly search flow Better list and context menu workflows, list view, right-click actions, and direct edit flows have all been cleaned up 2026-04-20 10-35-59.mp4 Smarter Steam Imports, Achievements, and Game Details Steam has been a huge focus lately, and it keeps getting better. Smarter Steam imports, HyperSpin now does a better job combining local installs, owned games, family-shared libraries, and manual App ID or Steam URL imports Better import workflow, games can show up sooner while downloads and follow-up work continue more cleanly in the background Easier Steam setup, signing in and managing the connection is simpler than it used to be Better achievements, Steam games now have richer achievement handling and more graceful fallback behavior when the normal lookup path is unavailable Better trailers and media, Steam trailers, backgrounds, and related media now resolve more cleanly and fit the override flow better Better matching and details, HyperSpin does a better job filling in game information and giving you more useful recovery paths when something does not match cleanly HyperOverlay - Coming soon One of the biggest additions in this stretch has been HyperOverlay. If you’ve ever launched a game and stared at a black screen while everything loads, this is the kind of thing that makes HyperSpin feel much more complete. It also covers the pause-screen work we’ve been showing off, so think of that as part of the same bigger push, not a separate feature. This should be released in the coming days. Loading screens, game launches feel smoother with a proper transition instead of a dead black screen Pause menus, you can bring up an in-game pause menu with your controller instead of fumbling around outside the game Game end screens, exits feel more intentional instead of just dropping you back out abruptly Save state integration, save state tools tie into the overlay flow much more naturally Pause screen improvements, we’re continuing to refine the pause flow with a cleaner horizontal layout, simpler presentation, and better save state navigation Cabinet-Friendly Quality-of-Life Improvements A lot of smaller changes landed too, but they add up fast if you use HyperSpin every day. Advanced controller mapping, modifier key support gives cabinets and custom control setups much more flexibility Always-on-top marquee support, dedicated marquee displays behave more like you expect on cabinet builds Better plugin flows, plugin setup, details, progress, and connected account handling are all smoother than they were before Better wheel visibility controls, you now get more control over which games show up per system Better marquee behavior and display handling across more setups More Control Over How Your Games Launch Another big win in this stretch has been giving you more control over setup and launch behavior without turning HyperSpin into a mess to manage. Per-game emulator settings, you can now override emulator options at the emulator, system, or game level instead of forcing everything into one global setup Save state management, HyperSpin now gives you a much better way to browse, launch, and manage save states across supported emulators Pre-launch and post-launch commands, you can now run custom commands before or after launching games for things like scripts, controller profiles, lighting, and other cabinet-specific setup Desktop shortcuts and deep linking, you can launch games more directly without jumping through as many hoops inside HyperSpin first Fixes & Stability A huge thank you to everyone who’s been testing, reporting bugs, and helping us keep pushing this forward. A lot has changed lately, and a lot of those improvements came directly from what you all have been telling us. Keep the bug reports coming, and if you get a chance to try HyperOverlay, the newer Steam import flow, Hybrid Mode 2, or the media audit tools, we’d love to hear how they work with your setup. Stay awesome, -fr0stbyt3

I have just uninstalled it and reinstalled it and adding MAME and other systems now. Once it has completed syncing I will test it again. If I have the same issue, I will wait till the next update. Thanks @rondar

My Hyperspin does not update to that version (2.0.82) so perhaps there was an issue with that one. If deleting it and reinstalling doesn't work, you may need to wait for the next version to be released.

hi @rondar Thank you for your response. Yes, the themes are not work either. I have everything up to date, what is interesting though is that when I look at the status is it inactive except for MAME. I have also tried to update but I get a 401 error which does not allow me to reinstall it.
