Hi guys, Ive downloaded tons of ROMs for the commodore 64, I've setup the winvice emulator. My problem is with the XML file. I downloaded the one from hyperlist but it doesn't contain any CRC info so when I try to use dons ROM renamer it can't match any of my ROMs with those contained in the XML. Does anyone know where I can get an XML file for The commodore 64 that has the CRC info or can anyone suggest a way around my issue Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

hi, is there any easy and quick way to edit bezels images? i got some nice bezel for some specific game that i want to make dafault bezel. I want to keep the side bars only, since the top/bottom cover some cm of the games I tried to cut the boards with MS Paint and save but the new image gets corrupted because is not "trasparent" anymore so the screen becomes black in the middle when the games start. Any other way or tutorial to edit?

Hello. First of all let me say this forum is very easy to access, thanks for that lads. Now for the problem... Hyperspin starts and everything just fine, but once I enter "MAME" the program just closes immediately. Can't even get to the game selection wheel for MAME games. The strange part is: HyperLaunch and HyperLaunchHQ have no problem loading my games. In HyperLaunch, testing the game is not at all a problem, but I've noticed if I click the little box (shown below) I get an error stating that it cannot find the file Hyperspin/Settings/MAME/Emulators.ini Here's where things actually get a little more strange, so I do manage to find Emulators.ini inside Hyperlau…

Sorry for the double post but I was not sure where to post this question? Hello, I had been using the older version of HyperSpin before RocketLauncher and I knew how to setup emulators using the .ini files With HyperLaunch I'm totally lost now. I think its harder for me now LOL Well I'm trying to get Sega Mod 2 emulator running to play HOTD. The emaulator launches the rom correctly and plays fine until about 30 seconds into the game it kicks me out saying "There was an error waiting for the window "AHK_class Nebula". Please check you have the correct version emulator installed for this module, followed any notes in the module, and have this emulator working outside your…

Hello everyone, I was wondering if there is a tool to automatically generate wheel banners from text? I know that Hyperspin automatically generates text based wheels if no banners are available BUT, I'm having a problem where my text wheels will be put behind the theme's images, so I stop seeing them as soon as the theme loads. Here's a video showing what is happening: I know that, if I remove the theme OR the background image / swf, the wheel text still displays. But since I want to keep the background, it seems the only alternative is to generate wheels (even if they just contain text). Do you know of any application / web service that does this? Thank you, L…

A small but very important update, fixing the memory leak problems. Also now autocrops, so if you maximise the window, you can adjust your font size to a much larger size (or smaller aswell).

All the games give me the same in-game message... "Turn game off before inserting cartridge or expansion module." Which is what the real cogecos did when you tried to run a dirty cartridge that required a little cleaning. So...how do I clean up roms? And that is after getting the sucker to run at all, MESS is quite anal when it comes to running the Coleco. I'm using the latest HyperLauch and have not touched the module. MESS also does the same thing if I run it outside of HS. The version of MESS is whatever it is that came with the Hyperspin Project.

So I was finishing off setting up my Taito Type X Wheel and I came across these??? First off HALF LIFE 2 SURVIVOR!! Not seen this before.

My idea is to use png images to divide the wheel arts between Z and # in the game wheels and dividers labeled "console", "Arcade" and "Media" for the main wheel. I've managed to do this but i want to make it so that the dividers do nothing when u try to selct them. **UPDATE** Many changes, works like a charm now, here are the new download links of the new versions, enjoy and feel free to comment, would love to hear the feedback on this, Here ya go: Main Menu http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NWVG2KRV Game Menu http://www.megaupload.com/?d=498B6W3R Full Version http://www.megaupload.com/?d=3IKU52Q7

Greetings everyone. This is my first post but I've been around a while playing with Hyperspin. Oh so many times I considered walking away and going to something with a gentler learning curve, but I stuck with it, and I'm glad I did. So my question regards the transition between themes. Is there anyway to modify certain behaviors that take place? It seems the wheel pops out immediately, then the pointer and any non-delayed artwork, then the transition kicks in (the background image doing various cool things) etc. Can I modify the when and how the wheel pops out? Also since input is active right away, if I begin moving the wheel while the transitions are still taking p…

Hello, I have Sega Saturn Up and Running well but i cant get the emulator to respond to the second controller for player 2. I am using 2 xbox controllers via xpadder. xpadder is responding appropriately and player 1 is working very well but cant get player two to work actually...player two doesnt respond even if i hit the appropriate keyboard key rather than the xbox controller xpadder etc. so problem is somewhere in SSF emulator i guess i have re-mapped/re-defined the keys many times from within SSF using different options etc anybody else have this problem? thanks craig

Hey everyone, I just started working a little bit with AutoHotKey, and I'm hoping some of the other users with expertise can help me with a few questions. I'm attempting to create scripts for PC games that have launchers. I've put one together that clicks in the correct area and launches the game. My question is, how am I able to incorporate the script into Hyperlaunch? Is there an area where I can add it to under module settings for the particular game? Is it also possible to have there be a pause before the script runs, so they the launcher window can open properly? Any help is greatly appreciated. And any tips for AHK are welcome, I've got a lot to learn about it. T…

Hello all, I've noticed that, every now and then, especially when I leave Hyperspin unattended for long periods (and the automatic scrolling starts), Hyperspin sometimes stops working... Basically, sometimes, my x-arcade joystick stops responding (it can't scroll the wheel anymore), other times it doesn't enter games or sub-wheels, and other times (and this is the MOST frequent one), I cannot exit the current system wheel I'm in. Any idea on what might be happening? There might be that there are several different problems occurring here. Regarding the problem with exiting sub-wheels, could it be that x-hotkeys is messing things up for me? (has anybody else experienced…
