Just wanted to give anyone a heads up on Tekken 7... I have an IPAC 4 and over the last couple years have battled a lot with customizations to get 2 players working from the same keyboard via my ipac configuration. Tekken 7 nails it. Couple items to note: 1. I had to do was configure player 2's controls first, then configure player 1 and then reconfigure player 2's, so that the keys were not used multiple times. 2. I used AHK to remap the ALT button for 'Y'. Really easy to do in Hyperspin/RL 3. I do use vJoy for Mortal Kombat XL and Tekken 7 does not like this. When vjoy is enabled in the device manager (windows 10), I won't get control access in the…

I bought the hard drive off of hyperspin and I’ve been trying to get a few problems resolved but nobody helps... 1st problem is I can’t play any Playstation and 2 games ...it just won’t play..and I don’t know if I need to open a file copy or move something for it to work..and I don’t know what keystrokes to get into the config menu to setup my Arcade with it. 2nd problem its the same with all the Nintendo systems.........and for whatever reason f1 worked and now it’s not to get into the config menu.. again Ive tried to contact hyperspin about it but they don’t respond... thx in advance...jeff

Sorry if this has been solved before but I did a search and couldn't find this issue discussed. I am running ARCulator to emulate the Acorn Archimedes and has followed numerous tutorials on how to set it up. When I run it default screen size games load fine - but when I pout it into Full Screen mode it goes into a loop of continuously switching between full screen and windowed mode - and the only thing you can do is sit back and wait for it to crash or go to task manager and end it. Just wondering if anyone else has come across this issue before or not.

I thought it might be fun to make a wheel that contains all the games in my setup. Initially I was using an XML merger to set this up and it was going great... until I hit some games that have the same name across multiple platforms. Merge tools generally disregard one entry, or ask which you want to keep. For example, NES and Genesis both have "Battletoads". I tried adding a system descriptor (NES) and (GEN) to the end of the <description> line in the xmls, and this allowed me to merge them just fine. The problem I run into though is that because the filename for each is "Battletoads", that also means the box-art, videos, etc are all named "Battletoads" and…

Hello all. New to Hyperspin here, working my way through the process. I'm attempting to build a Ready Player One theme that includes all the referenced games in the book (excluding text adventures or anything that requires use of a keyboard). The .xml only includes MAME games and a few Atari 2600 games. I used the how-to below but cannot get the games to launch from Hyperspin. They launch fine from Rocket Launcher and all the games come up green when audited (used the alternate emulator tab to define each game). I get the attached error when I try to launch them from the wheel however. Any ideas? I'm thinking I screwed something up in HyperHQ? Thank's in advance!

I'm going through my last wheel since Windows 10 and validating everything. There are some games that throw an error. I haven't tried much yet to fix them but they were working in 7 and compatibility mode to 7 didn't work. I'm wondering if there is a way to virtualize to Windows 7 as an emulator. Is that crazy and if not how do I do that

Been noticing looking at a lot of theme previews that people are using special art with the PS4 buttons pictured on them. This makes me guess that they use the PS4 controller and must have success if they were willing to create special art for it. Its been awhile since but I gave the Ps4 controller a run and seemed to work pretty good, but I had to many issues to stay with it. So was just wondering, for the people that use it. What do you guys think? Does the setup seem pretty stable and stay connected without issues and which programs are you guys using for it?

Hello! Hyperspin noob here! I am trying to add systems and configure existing systems in a build i downloaded from the net. Got everything running except... I keep running into the message; "Can't find roms with any provided extensions". I have tried adding ColecoVision for example and the emulator (colEm) works on it's own... The extensions names both in Hyper HQ and settings file for the system are correct and separated by a coma and a space. This build does not have the HyperLaunch UI. Is this a problem that needs this program to be settled? If so can i add and use it in an existing build? Any help would be appreciated Thank you! …

Hello, Everyone. Since they're pretty painful to figure out sometimes, I thought I'd share my PC game control mappings with everyone. Everything I use along with a google spreadsheet with notes is in a link below: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6HDK020hAlibGN3WWZzSUdoUmM A few things to consider: I use 95% default MAME controls on an IPAC4. I have remapped the ALT key as it was causing problems on Windows during 4-player button mashing sessions As long as your inputs are keyboard-based, you should be able to change one copy of the the vjoy and x360kb files and replace them for most other games. X360ce is tied to VJoy 100% of the time, so …

My arcade cab was fine, i downloaded some new bezels form emu movies and my PC crashed when exiting hyperspin. Upon reboot my cab wouldn't boot from the C: drive, keep coming up with a grub command prompt, i`ve never duel booted but i think this is something to do with "windows loader from daz" that i used to get around the windows 7 activation. I know I know not good . I also had no virus software as i`m fed up of them interrupting the hyperspin experience even when i set them to silent mode, every now and then they retake focus and stop hyperspin in its tracks. I`ve tried all sorts of you tube videos to try and get it to boot, i`ve written a new MBR and now …

Used Retroarch and worked out how to use two buttons to exit, although Rocketlauncer wants to use BSNES rather than Snes9x. Getting a raspberry pi 3 and only going to use Hypespin for MAME - just to much of a pain getting stuff to work. Closed

Hey all. I received my 4 player controller and have Hyperspin all working great with MAME and console emulation. PC Games have been tougher, and I'm wondering if anyone has solutions. Many PC Games only allow 1 keyboard input and other players would have to use gamepads. I am finding lots of solutions to convert gamepads to keyboard keystrokes, but not the opposite, where a keystroke emulates a button press on a gamepad. Does anyone have a way to make games like Double Dragon Neon or Gauntlet work with a 4 player arcade cabinet? Thanks!!

Is there a way to have a limited number of games on a wheel Eg my child hood collection would be about 50 games, on snes, nes, megadrive (sega gensis) and master system. Do I manually have to go though the lists / xml files and remove everything I don't want to show up in the wheel/s? Is there a tool available? Id love to have a complete collection many of my rom sets have H1-6 J U E etc... Hyper spin only accepts one rom Ie is there a way I can have say the roms on this dir and hyper spin pics them up ?

Hello - have done some searching and so far not found an answer to the question of where one should install individual PC Games? Let me state up front that I am not currently planning to utilize the monster eXoDOS set(s) out there as I own the games I wish to install...and can't accommodate a nearly 400GB addition to my drive. Anyway, it seems this particular system category is unique in that PC games usually have far more than just a single 'ROM'-like file. So, what is the best organizational approach in terms of a master folder structure? For example, is the optimum approach to install each game within it's own folder, something like this: HyperSpin > E…

What's the situation with hyperspin now. I noticed the facebook page was getting updated regularly but it's been quite since September. I'm just curious really. Is bad boy bill now off the scene, can we expect any updates in the future. I'd love to donate or help out I use it daily and would hate to see it slowly be over taken by something else. Are there any plans in place to move it forward?

Bit of a daft question but I couln't work out how to do this; how do I find out how many games are on a wheel in HS? I thought that maybe by looking at the xml I could do it, though each game has a number of lines in the XML file and so I can't see any easy way to count them.

Hyperspin is working great. I can open the game up in MAME and i go to sliders and then change the horizontal stretch to .0932. I would like that setting to be applied to all games. I hear that maybe horizont.ini could help but not sure what to include in it for mame to apply it all around. any suggestions on what to include in that ini?
