I have already got Hyperspin all set up on my pc running into my arcade cab (so got files, artwork, roms etc..) can I easily move this over to my android box (Being Nvidia Shield) or are the systems (windows - Android) totally different set ups?

OK.. I'm going to start here.. I'm using lineageOS android 7.1.2 and downloaded the hyperspin android download files from the forums here.. (Located in hyperspin android download section) OK, I installed the apk and hyperspin crashed upon opening. I didn't install the zip and 7zip files so far. I deleted the hyperspin folder it created during install.. Gave me the following error. No Hyperspin Data Folder Found! Valid locations are "/storage/UUID/Hyperspin","/sdcard/Hyperspin" (where folder was created), or "/storage/sdcard0/Hyperspin". Please visit Hyperspin-fe.com for more info. OK, I took the liberty of creating an new folder and h…

Hi, I have setup hypespin on my shield tv with success but I have a strange behavior when I want to exit from retroarch after launching a game through hyperspin. When exiting game, it restart hypespin from the start with intro video instead of come back to the game wheel of the system. I don't touch settings.ini yet. is someone know why it happens ? thanks for your advice regards pierre

Here is a piece of kit that might be ideal for people wanting the grunt of the shield, without the shield. https://m.newegg.com/products/N82E16813190005 Might be idea for home arcade users wanting to install their own oses.. But have the overhead of the shield and instant compatibility for hyperspin.

Hi, Just thought I share something that will make setting up Hyperspin with Retroarch on Android easier going forward. One of the most trickiest things i struggled with when I originally set up Hyperspin/Retroarch on Android was the fact that the Retroarch app and Hyperspin Retroarch were by default using DIFFERENT configs (retroarch.cfg). This was really confusing, and it took me hours of fiddling, and learning from @thatman84s youtube video, to make it work. Now I have reinstalled Retroarch from scratch (i wanted to tidy up all my supporting files and directories into places where i could actually find them), and can happily confirm that this dua…

I'm getting a slight audio crackle in just a few videos in Hyperspin on my Shield TV. I tested one clip and it has clean audio when opened directly in the Shield's video player. I see "Potential audio corruption/clipping with video playback" in the Known Issues, so perhaps that's what I'm hearing. Any solutions would be appreciated, of course, but it doesn't look like there are any significant audio settings available to tweak. I attached the AAC stream of the clip if anyone wants to take a look at it. I don't want to post the whole clip publicly since it's a members-only emumovies snap. But I'd guess the low-res free version uses the same audio. dkongo.track_2.aac

I'm pretty sure the answer is "no", but I'd like to confirm... can the vertical system wheels be shifted side-to-side at all in Hyperspin Android? I've played with lots of options that change text width and bounding in various ways, but it seems like the vertical centering line of the text cannot be modified.

Hey guys, working on my psx stuff. I can't get any game with '&" to show up on the wheel on psx. Naming is all correct, but no luck. I added Sega cd earlier, and I noticed it works fine for games with "&". Any clues? I can change them to "and" and of course they'll work that way, but it's a bit of a hassle. But if that's what I have to do, I guess I will. Thanks.

Hi Recently I have warmed to FBA core, rather than going with mame. Once i got hold of the right romset, it all runs perfectly on my Nvidia Shield TV (Hyperspin-->Retroarch-->fba core). There are some major benefits in my book from using fba rather than mame (0.188 or other versions): 1. Save states (through Retroarch, works for ALL games) 2. High scores are saved (i cant get that to work in mame) 3. Game-specific controls just work by default (e.g. SF2 automatically uses the "SNES-button layout") Those are deal-breakers for me! However, I have one problem: I can´t bring up the fba menu once im in a game. With fb…

I am trying to get my Playstation Wheel setup for Android and I have been running into some issues... First of all, I grabbed the "Sony Playstation.ini" from the android settings pack as a base and updated my rom path accordingly. Initially I was getting kicked right back to the main menu screen and was advised to disable the "romsonly" filter which got all my roms to show properly. However I am not able to launch any of them as the path is not being formed correctly. I am seeing the game try to launch a rom from "Playstation/roms/rom name.cue" when my roms are sorted in folders like this: "Playstation/roms/rom name/rom name.cue". How can I get Hyperspin to inc…

Can anyone fill me in on when the 2.0 release is coming out? I'm trying to build an arcade desk and would like to use android.. Not Nvidia BTW, odroid xu4. Just curious if I can use the older hyperspin in android on 7.1.2 by setting up in the same method as nvidia or is this not possible? Also curious if hyperspin could be booted into instead and using android as a base.. Lastly, what is the latest on hyperspin and can anyone walk me through it or point me in the direction of a step by step video on a clean slate to make this easier.. As in grandma level install, showing every step. Thanks.

Hi! I thought that by now I had the process down of adding and adjusting systems and wheels But now I ran into a problem I just can´t see what Im doing wrong, hoping one of you can spot it? It started when i was messing around in my MAME setup (I changed to 0.188 roms etc.) Problem is: When i select my MAME wheel in the HS main menu, HS crashes and throws me out. So I dont even get to the MAME wheel to see my games anymore. To find the problem, i created a new system "MAMEtest", with just 1 game in it. At least now HS doesnt crash when i enter it, but my 1-game wheel still doesnt show, so im still doing something wrong. So my troubleshooting qu…

Hello All, I was wondering if there are any plans to release a version that will support non-NVidia devices. There are some fairly powerful android boxes out there now. I've got a H96 Pro with a 2.0GHz proc that uses the ARM OpenGL. I was kind of bummed to find out I couldn't download the hyperspin app...I can get RetroArch and run the games but don't get the cool front end. Just a thought...you could make the apk available on the web site for us more tech-savvy folks and not make it available in the play store for the lower powered devices

I installed a bunch of new consoles on my HS last weekend (using Shield TV PRO). Most worked without any issues but I'm having problems with getting a few of them to run....Astrocade, Adventurevision, and Atari 5200. All of these systems I've set up using MAME to emulate, via the Working Systems list posted in this form. I have MAME working fine on my HS setup, but these classic consoles using the MAME emulator to run aren't palying anything. I must have it set up wrong but I don't know what I'm doing. Possibly a BIOS issue? I never added any for these consoles but I didn't see any mention anywhere of having to use a BIOS either. Here are my settings for the 5200…

Hey fellow Spinners! The title of course hints at what I am after. I know it's an usual request and not really how Hyperspin is designed to work. So before I even attempted it, I thought I'd ask you wonderful folks if it's even possible? Specifically with my Shield TV, I'd like to launch the UAE4ARM emulator when Amiga is selected from the main menu, rather than go into the game wheel which references from the .xml database file. It would be nice to load the emulator with my customised config file made in it, so that would automatically go straight into the Workbench 3.1 environment I have setup. Once in the Workbench desktop I'm quite happy to choose my WHDload g…

Same as title.... I was making a theme as per a previous topic but changed it to have the "normal" half wheel on the side... it looks fine on PC and everything works, but no matter what settings I do on android it only shows up vertical for my systems.... I thought Android supported Normal and Vertical just not Horizontal?

Hi Guys New to all this hyperspin! just setup several wheels and got most working fine (genesis, snes, mame, c64 etc..) but I've noticed on a 2 wheels (N64 and NES) that not all the games are displayed. I.E my N64 wheel only shows games from 0, A, B and C but nothing after C, and the NES wheel shows all games upto S, but not T onward. Any ideas whats causing this? Ive been searching on issues, or wheel filter settings etc. but no joy. Ive recreated the .ini files for the wheels from scratch but still the same. All the full set of Roms are in the right folders, databases are correct etc... N64 was working when i first went into the wheel but somewhere along the line i…

I installed a Famicom Disk System wheel on my HS setup (Shield TV) and I can't get any roms to boot up. Screen flashes black for half a second whenever I try to load one. Cannot load FDS roms in Retroarch either using Netopia or FCE cores. Has anyone here successfully added FDS to their android HS that can help? I checked the working systems list here and it looks like it should run ok. I'm using Nestopia to emulate, so I copied over the settings from my NES wheel and edited them for FDS: path=H:\hyperspin\emulators\Famicom Disk System\ rompath=Emulators/Famicom Disk System/roms/ userompath=true exe=com.retroarch/com.retroarch.browser.retroactivity.RetroActivityF…

WOOOOOOOP!!!!!!!!! I just loaded an Atari 5200 game with MAME (Arcade) RA core from Hyperspin that is named as per the official Hyperspin xml. NOT using software lists or hash files. In a rom folder named Atari 5200. BUT its 11pm and I got work at 6am so gotta sleep. Its not all good news as this method requires a bunch of text files to be created. I expect someone will come up with a little script easy enough for that. Until I have tested more it could be nothing but I dont think it is.

Long story short - I reinstalled Retroarch because the core updater was not working. My Hyperspin settings stayed intact after the re-install, so all I had to do was fix the bios path to get most of my installed emulators working in HS again. Almost all emulators worked after that except the Sega ones. Took a closer look at them and they were all using the Picodrive core. Thought it might be an issue with the core, so I changed my settings.ini from: parameters=cores/picodrive_libretro_android.so to parameters=cores/genesis_plus_gx_libretro_android.so All of the Sega emulators worked fine after that. I still need Picodrive to play 32X games though. Pico…
