Hello, I am looking for a way to sort the list of xml games, e.g. Mame etc, in alphabetical order, unfortunately most xml lists are not alphabetized, which makes Hs Wheels a light mess ?? Unfortunately in Hs alone I didn't find the option to show the list by alphabet or I'm blind

I finished my arcade cab several years ago. At one point I know i used a xbox 360 controller for at least hyperspin and the pc games. One of my kids needed the controller so i didnt use it with the cabinet for a couple years. I just recently seen the news on this turbo grafx mini coming out in march 2020 and it made me want to play some of these old console games but want to use a controller. I just went through my hyperspin cab and got it all cleaned out and fixed a few buttons/wiring issues and got it back in shape to play. I just ordered 2 more 360 wireless controllers and trying to get at least this one controller working with retroarch to play some older con…

Does anyone have this system setup with all the roms? To be clear, I am not asking for roms but curious if they even exist. I have only been able to find 8 or so. Thank you.

So the Hyperspin setup that I have originated from Mad Little Pixels image. It is designed to be used with an Xbox controller and thus the Special Art shows Xbox buttons and there is a screen that pops up after the into video that shows the Xbox controller mapping. This drive is going into a dedicated arcade cabinet so i would like to remove that screen. I figured that it would be special art on the Main Menu wheel but it is not. I did manage to change the special art back to the default arcade controllers for each wheel but I cannot figure out how to get this screen removed. Any ideas on how to remove this? Thanks

I am getting an AutoHotKey error whenever I press the <Enter> key when in Hyperspin. It just started happening but I do not know what I could have changed to make this happen. Any ideas how I can get rid of this? I am a newb and I certainly didn't knowingly change any scripts. Thanks

Hello all, What I want to do is stop hyperspin from exiting/killing my emulators when I press the Escape key. This behavior is incredibly annoying because many games that I have installed use the Escape key to open and/or navigate the in-game menus to change game settings and such. But having the Escape key set to kill the emulator prevents me from being able to do that. I followed the instructions located here to change the exit emulator key setting in rocketlauncher: https://hyperspin-fe.com/forums/topic/28935-exit-button-combinations/ The instructions are very clear but they don't seem to be working for me - at least not completely. All of the …

I am running the latest version of MAME64, Hyperspin, and RocketLauncher. I enabled port audio with new settings below, and now when i launch a game from Hyperspin, I get no audio at all. The games play normal, but with no sound. If I exit, Hyperspin has sound. I tried launching ROMs from MAME64 directly, and they sound perfect. I also launched from within RocketLauncherUI and they work perfect there too. Any help?? # # OSD SOUND OPTIONS # sound portaudio audio_latency 1 # # PORTAUDIO OPTIONS # pa_api "Windows WDM-KS" pa_device default pa_latency …

Hi everyone. Long time user of HS but first time poster. I just upgraded to a better PC in my cabinet and I'm running into issues with HS slowing my game speeds when launching emulators inside HS rather than playing the games directly from the emulators. I can play Dolphin games at full speed using just the Dolphin app or through RocketLauncher, but when I launch them inside my HS menu, they run much slower, some unplayable. I am using RL inside HS. Is there a setting to fix this? I am running an i7 (3.5), 16 gb of RAM and a NVidia 750Ti

Good day. I've been setting Hyperspin up for a good long while now and am getting everything set up the way I like it. I have most systems set up and everything is the way I want it (for now). However, I would like to customise it a little more. At the moment, I have my main menu showing all the system wheels. Go into each system and it shows that systems game wheels. Great. But with so many system and so many games, I'm trying to order it a bit more. What I would like to do is add a "Collections" wheel to the main menu. Then, going into this Collections wheel would bring up custom Collection wheels I have created, for example "Zelda", "Sonic" etc.. going i…

Recently, I finally got around to making proper XML's for 3 player and 4 player games, so that, when I have that many players, we don't have to sift through all the games or even the hundreds of favorites to find a good game. Have a look at the lists and let me know if you think I should add or remove any games. I run Hyperspin booting into a favorites list that is a combination of most of the "All Killer No Filler" lists that are pinned in the thread at the top of the Main BYOAC forum, as well as other choice games that weren't part of the lists. So almost all of these 3 and 4 player games are drawn from the "killer" lists. Thanks, BadMouth from the BYOAC forums, fo…

About 90% of all MAME (CoinOp) games suck. How do I remove the games from the HyperSpin games list? I only want the 5-star games to show up in the list. I have the roms in the MAME\roms folder and the videos in the MAME\videos folder. Everything works fine, except I have to scroll thru a bunch of crappy games in the HyperSpin list to get to the actual good games. I am building 2 MAME arcade cabinets. One will be for vertical games (mainly shoot'em ups), and the other will be for horizontal games. So, each MAME arcade will have its own HyperSpin setup.

There was a post about this once before from what I can tell but not sure of the fix for it. I believe I have identified the issue as i originally thought it was only when running NEOGEO that this happened but its happening with MAME as well now and wasnt before. I havent tried other systems but assuming it would be same outcome as this seems to be an issue with RL. So i launch hyperspin and pick a game no problem plays fine but then when I exit back to wheel and pick any other game it will no longer launch the games. I had noticed that when I exit hyperspin all together and get back to windows desktop I see the RL logo in the lower right hand corner as it shows its still…
