Hey guys, I'm running into a small issue with Hyperspin not loading my MAME ROM's. I have read other people having the same issue and I have followed what people have suggested EXCEPT using the renaming tool to remove the file extension on the rom's. I wasn't sure if I should still do that with seeing that the forum date was over a year ago. Also the two videos I watched from from game room solutions and Simply Austin doesn't mention doing that. I have also included a few snapshots of my .ini files just in case I screwed something up. The rom's also work in RocketLauncher with no issue. Let me know what it could possibly be and thanks guys for the help.

Hi there, yesterday I was downloading media for the Atari 7800, and when I downloaded a Dig Dug ROM and tried to open it in HyperSpin, the emulator opened but not the ROM. I can't understand what went wrong. I gave HyperHQ the directory to the BizHawk emulator and my ROM folder, and did the same with RocketLauncher. I checked that Bizhawk supported the .a78 extension in both applications. For some reason, this has only happened for the Atari 7800 - on every other system I use BizHawk with, it works fine, and when I opened the ROM manually, it worked perfectly. Is there anything I'm doing wrong that can help solve this problem? Help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys, Losing all your Hyperspin data can be a scary thought. I have been backing up my Hyperspin folder religiously. it's about 300gigs without disc games. It takes so long to backup..... What is your method for backing up your data? Is it Fast and efficient? Any program you use? I use sync toy but lately I have been having errors with it and my MyCloudEx4 NAS. Thoughts? Thanks Steve Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Right now I have my Hyperspin configured with default wheel randomly spinning after a period of time and stopping on a system that will play the intro video that system. Only after choosing a particular system will that system start spinning picking random games and displaying a sample video for that game. My question is there a way to make Hyperspin spend a certain amount of time at the main menu wheel spinning through systems and then automatically choosing a system to open that systems wheel? And then after a certain period of time exiting back to the main menu wheel? As to keep cycling through games through all of your Hyperspin systems you have configured. …

I've been searching for specific instructions for a few hours and found nothing clear enough to help me out I have minipacs (virtually the same as ipacs), I want to configure them in emulators and i'm pretty sure there's some instructions out there. The easy part was to setup MAME for my 4 players and it worked but for Retroarch, Epsx, 4DO, Nestopia, NullDC, i'm pretty sure there's some TEMPLATES out there or tutorial on how to do it :| I use Hyperspin and RocketLauncher Any help is welcomed

Hi everyone, A quick question - I'm running HS/Rocketlauncher on Windows 10. Everything works fine, but after I initially run Hyperspin, the very first ROM I attempt to execute (regardless of the system) always takes a very loooooong time to load - sometimes as long as 20 seconds. I hit the start button -- and Hyperspin just sits idle for a lengthy period -- and then all of a sudden, Rocketlauncher takes over (as expected) and boots the ROM. The funny thing is -- this only happens the very first time I launch a ROM. After I launch the first ROM, exit back to HS, and launch other ROMs, everything works as expected (i.e., no delays whatsoever). Initiall…

Tempted as you are to answer this question with the first thing that comes into your head I hope you can help me. I've just started using hyperspin and I'm setting up a system with Mame, Daphne, Spectrum etc. I've got Daphne working fully and I'm trying to get the ZX Spectrum set up. I've downloaded some .avi video snaps but not sure where they go? I've also downloaded an .mp4 that I would like to use on the main menu to show an overview of the system - does anyone know what path that goes under? And... while I've got the attention of someone who knows what they're talking about... my last question is, where do I get the nice graphic for ZX Spectrum on the wheel and …

Im sure this has been an issue already but I cant seem to find a solution. I just bought a spintrak and it works GREAT in MAME! Id like it to control the wheel as well as the joysticks. When I "tick it" in HyperHQ it works fine when moving in wither direction, but when I stop it just keeps moving the wheel in the "up " direction about 2 moves per second. The only other controls im using are Ultimarc USB joysticks and the keyboard. Any Ideas?

I'm having a terrible problem with Visual Pinball 9 tables. Some of them work fine, but a lot of them load in the background instead of coming into focus. If I do an alt-tab I can get to the game, but this just won't work in a cabinet. I've searched and searched and just cannot come up with an answer. I can't figure out why some work and some don't. The game launches fine, but in the background. It happens about 30 to 40% of the time. I'd really appreciate any suggestions because I want to build a cabinet and not even hook up a keyboard. Thanks, --J

Hi All, Something which would be good is the option to toggle on and off background music in say mp3 format for game like on mame whichb have no music. i have loads of sid tunes and remixes which i think would be cool to start from a random playlist when games start. not for all games though as some have music already. A key combo to toggle on and off would be cool. thanks

I downloaded the latest db from the db section of this forum (not hyperlist) and the latest WHDLoad rom set from PD. However, there are a lot of rom names that don't match. The artwork and video is even worse. I have about 980 wheels, 2D cover, 3D Covers and carts that don't match the naming of the latest DB. I tried using Rom Renamer on the video and artwork and even the roms themselves but without any luck. It just won't rename anything properly. Does anyone have a solution for this? Manually renaming this massive amount of artwork is out of the question.

I have installed DEmul emulator and I can start and exit games from Hyperspin, but when I run a game the theme from the game and the frame from DEmul emulator is still visible. I use DEmul for Dreamcast and it does not have this problem. When I launch a game I can still see the theme behind the bezel and game image it doesn't fade to black. The screen resolution is 1920 x 1200 the bezel is 1920 x 1080 I resized the png and ini file to 1920 x 1200 but it made no difference. I tried turning off the bezel in Rocketlauncher but then the theme is still visible behind the game. Am I missing a file somewhere?

Hello, sorry if this question is a bit "noobish" i just downloaded a merged Mame software listROM set (.182 and an accompanying CHD set(softwarelist combined both files contain almost 2 TB of data I am completely unfamiliar with what these software list libraries are as I was more used to a single archive of MAME ROMS (zip files and any accompany CHDs. I guess what I am looking for what can I do to test what I have downloaded to make sure the tim I just put in to get them was worth it? If someone could pleaseoffer me some suggestions I would appreciate it Thank you

I've finally figured out how to get Future Pinball working on its own and how to launch a table and play it within Future Pinball and that's all working. I set up Future Pinball and downloaded the official database in RL plus I downloaded one additional game in addition to the Sci-Fi sample it comes with. It properly audits both games but when I launch either of them, the keyboard doesn't work. I've attached my log file. I have no clue what to do next. I simply pointed the module's exe path to the exe and selected the rom path as the table directory from within the module. I had to set the program to run in XP compatibility mode to get the ke…

They say a picture is worth a thousand words... On the left side is one of the Time Traveler .m4v files playing in Windows Media player. On the right side is Time Traveler as it plays in Daphne/Singe when using the .bat file to launch the game. So the question is: Why are the blacks so washed out in the Daphne emulator? The same video file is certainly capable of true blacks, as seen in Windows Media Player. I checked my Nvidia settings and playback is set to full range; 0 - 255. There must be some way to set Daphne/Singe to display full dynamic range right? How can I fix this? This port will never be fully 3D of course but with the true black bac…

I have hyperspin fully set up and working on a horizontal 4:3 screen. I am switching it out for a vertical 4:3 screen next week. What are the steps I need to take to get hyperspin to continue to work that way? (Even windows, not sure how that will work once I have a rotated display hooked up) I know there have been some vertical themes made, etc and I will look at those but if someone could point me in the direction of steps to take first that would be a huge help. Just not sure where to start even after doing some initial googling. I appreciate it and if if this has been fully covered somewhere just point me in the direction.
