When I am in Hyperspin, the mame wheel comes up and I am able to toggle through the wheel with my joystick, but when I try to choose a game to play, it doesn't launch the game. I mapped my joystick and it will play fine in RLUI, but not here. I looked at my log and it seems it is not finding the path to launch. Any suggestions? Here is my log: 09:26:12 PM | HyperSpin Started 09:26:12 PM | Going FullScreen 09:26:12 PM | Checking for updates 09:26:12 PM | Update Check Complete 09:26:12 PM | Startup program unavailable 09:26:12 PM | Playing intro video 09:26:18 PM | Error intializing joysticks 09:26:18 PM | Menu Mode is single 09:26:…

Hi, I've finally got around to highlight this issue. If I hypersearch for a game or use the alphabet to narrow down the game I want I find that after selecting either a game or a letter hyperspin goes back to the wheel select but it spins like crazy before loading the game....unless.... If I hold the right/left position to select the alphabet and select "C" for example instead of HS going back to the wheel at the beginning of C it spins wildly and stops at some other letter eg "L" I then have to still go up or down until I get back to the C games. I can't find a topic on this and wondered if anyone has seen this or if my setup needs a quick fix somewhere I've overlooked…

Hello I am having the same issue as others here but the thread was closed so I could not comment on it. I have checked my settings.ini file and it is correctly pointing to D:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe. In my log I get the same error as others have reported "Cant find HyperLaunch, defaulting to root HyperLaunch.exe. Any other ideas? Games launch from rocket launcher and hyperlaunch without any issue. This is driving me nuts! When I launch HyperLaunch.exe and attempt to test a game, the window closes and nothing happens. When I test using rocketlauncher no problem. Thanks, Dave

I have Joy2Key setup to control my main Hyperspin wheel and everything works perfectly, except when I go into a system that uses Xpadder and then exit that system back into the main wheel, the controls no longer work. I have tested in systems that use either emulators own controls or Joy2Key and they are both fine so it must be Xpadder. Is there something I am missing ? Thanks in advance

I've been gathering a list of the best PC games that would play well on an arcade cabinet. Luckily, with the indie scene currently focusing so heavily on 8 and 16 bit graphics, several of these are quick-play, 2D, one or two button controlled games--great for an arcade cabinet! I'm looking for games that will easily work with a standard 2-player cab (1 Joystick and 6 Buttons per player). Keep in mind, the fewer needed controls, the better. -Able to control with 1 joystick (the 2p joystick is available for twin stick shooters) -Minimal button requirements (ideally the standard 3 button shoot, jump, special attack style of controls) -No online requirements -No keyboard req…

Hi all, been messing around for a few weeks trying to work out how to go about this but havn't been able to work out a good way to go about it. Basically I am trying to setup rocketlauncher/hyperspin/mame and have different hlsl scanline shader settings for different wheels. For example I have 1 wheel setup using bezels with rounded corners so I use the rounded corner setting in the shader setting to make them fit the bezel. Then in another wheel I'll be using bezels that are square but it will use the default shader settings in the raster.ini and use rounded corners which I don't want with the square bezels. So as far as I can work out I can make rom specific ini fi…

Hi all, PC games were launching fine via RL, I added a couple more to the database and now when trying to launch them I receive the error in the attached image. I didn't change any other settings. Roms from all other systems are launching fine. Any idea how to resolve this? Thanks.

Hey everyone, I am in desperate need of help. Just cannot figure this one out. I've setup MAME in rocketlauncher and all shows that it is okay. I've followed multiple tutorials and cant see what I am missing. But when I go to load any game it comes up with the error that my module does not contain a startup line see below.

I just did a clean install of windows 10 to get rid of most of the background processes that have built up over the years. This is what I plan on running hyperspin on. I just want to make sure it is enough horsepower to run supermodel (model 3 emulator) and model 2 emulator. I will keep everything on an external HDD so I don't run into storage issues., I have a modern gaming computer with a desktop i7 and GTX 980ti Strix as well but am hesitant to run things on there that might have bugs or trojans buried in them so I like the idea of my laptop being a dedicated hyperspin machine. The laptop has a turbo feature that can boost the processor up to 3 GHz I belie…

I installed HS and RL latest versions on a PC that was an i5 with 16gigs ram and onboard graphics. OS was windows 7. Installed onto the boot drive (C:\). Hyperspin was Smooth as silk without any changes to any graphic/interface settings. I just setup on an i7 with 16 gigs ram and a PCIe Video Card (MSI i think) and windows 10. So a better computer, right? Besides the OS being different, new install was done onto a new 500tb WD Black drive. This HD was not the OS drive/boot drive. I had seen this recommendation before to prevent an OS crash from taking down the HS setup. Hyperspin is laggy and a bit unresponsive. Any thoughts on…

Hi all, I completely setup Hhyperspin some time ago. I haven't looked at it for a good while because of work life etc I fired it up just recently and its now doing a strange thing. Basically all is well, until you choose a system (any system) you get the wheel and the expected theme for that system, with video etc scrolling in. But as soon as you scroll the wheel for another game the wheel fades and none of the theme elements come back in (title, video etc). Exiting that system and entering it again (or another) will show the theme elements for whatever game the wheel happens to be on, and then upon changing game the theme elements fail to re-appear. This i…

Anyone know how to get Pinball FX2 to work with hyperspin? I have it working outside of hyperspin (version not requiring steam). I have the wheel all setup. How do you setup the AHK's to launch the indivduall tables per wheel item?

Hi guys, i have MAME configures and running on hyperspin, everything works besides, my video snaps I've downloaded a full pack to match my roms from emuparadise, all *.mp4 files, but they show only black screen and sound. I've test with one from emumovies and it works! Is it a conversion problem? Anyone knows how to solve it, it's about 17gb of video, it's a lot to download one at a time from emumovies. Thanks, best regards

Ok so I've got my consoles set pretty decently, now I'm treading into MAME. I have a romset, it's like 40gigs and its 0188u0 i believe. Of course, none of the things are named correctly. What's the best way to attack this romset to get it organized - named correctly, parsed down to English only releases, etc? Or is it best to just find alternative sources for individual MAME games, as I'd only want maybe 100-200 of them anyway...

I'm having an odd problem. I've spent hours setting up custom viewport settings in RL to get my RetroArch systems (99% of them use RetroArch) looking just right and fitting in the window with bezels but when I load a game through HS, the window is very tiny and in the top left corner of the screen. It should be full screen fitting in between the bezels perfectly, just like when I launch through RL but it isn't. It's as if the RL custom viewport settings aren't taking effect or being passed through or something. I don't know if that's it, but again, everything looks perfect when I launch through RL. I have a beta test for my new arcade cabinet scheduled to…

I'm using the latest Hyperspin version 1.416 and i'm updating my main menu system intros from the old .flv files to the new .mp4 ones. I'm using Hypersync to d/l the videos. However, when in Hyperspin i get no sound from some of the new videos like Wonderswan color and Atari 2500. These videos do have sound if i open them in other media players. What worries me is that i also updated all my other game videos as well. Thousand's of files. So i'm not sure how many are affected. Is there a reason why Hyperspin doesn't play sound with some? Edit: Some videos now have sound but no video...

I'm trying to rename my Neo Geo (AES) collection using Don's Tool. The XML from Hyperlist doesn't have CRC values, so it's not matching. Don's Tool isn't matching using fuzzy logic, as it seems to be looking inside the rom zip files. Am I using these wrong? Thanks for the help in advance!

Hi All I started this build 2 years ago but due to illness I had to put it on hold, not much has changed in my build but I am looking at getting a new GFX card, most of the questions I have seen on this were before the 10xx series cards were released. I have a i7 3770 CPU with 16Gb of 1600Mhz RAM What minimum amount I can spend on a card that will do the job, is it worth getting a 10xx or saving money and go for an older card? Thanks in advance.

I never had any issue with ROM manager until i decided to build a C64 and Amstrad set. The Amstrad set has 2k+ roms and when i load the xml in the rom manager and hit scan to check my roms, it stops responding. I leave it there for 5 minutes but it won't show any results. Any idea how to fix this? Or should i check the roms in small batches?

Hi all, Firstly I have to say a BIG thank you to all the support team and contributors to the Hyperspin project. I'm really getting my head around it now and, although initially there's a slight learning curve, once you get a feel for how it's put together it's brilliant!! I thought I would initially just want Hyperspin to access all my emulators from one place but now I've 'caught the bug' and gone a bit OCD with getting wheel art, themes etc to all match and be correct for every rom. As part of this almost fanatical approach I wondered if there was either.... 1) Alternative HS transition animations (when you switch from one game to another on the wheel and …
