Why is the genre names listed in the hyperlist XML for MAME different than the genre artwork names? I created some genre xml's using Don's Tools, but I realized the genre's listed in the XML's doesn't match the genre artwork names in Hyperspin. Is there a better way to get artwork that uses the same names? Or maybe the Hyperspin Genre artwork is supposed to be more generic since it could be used for any system, not just MAME. If that is the case, does anyone know where to get genre artwork that matches the genre names in the XMLs?

Is there a way to disable windows shortcut key inputs either during emulator use or in general? I realize that I could remap the emulator settings but as I am coming to the end of setting up everything, I have no desire to go back and redo all of the controls for every emulator. As a result I am looking for a solution that will simply disable things like alt+tab. Does anyone know of anything like that?

Hey there, I'm going through my ROMS, sorting out and getting everything in order. I'm trying to narrow things and make it easy. I have files both .zip and .7z. Which is better? I can keep both. I don't think RocketLauncher will have a heart attack. What are your thoughts?

Hello guys! I'm new to the forum and became a platinum member recently! I have everything working perfect except I wanted to filter out the games I don't have in the database. I saw the "Rom Only" feature in HyperHQ. When I enable it, if I press enter on Super Nintendo it does the outro transition as if it's going to go into it but instead just goes right back out to the main wheel. It does this whenever I use that checkbox for any system. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance Cheers, Jon

is anyone using a IPAC 2 or IPAC ULTIMATE with windows 10 pro or windows 10 The selection wheel just keeps spinning and the video resolution goes low with slow video when I plug any of these two boards in. Both boards worked fine with retropie and both board have no switches wired and all inputs DISABLED with IPAC software. If I use a keyboard all works fine with a reboot so looks like a compatible problem .both boards are late 2016 versions and firmware 1.33 & 1.30

Hi, I have Commodore Amiga CD32 setup using Winuae and all loads up fine and controls are fine etc The only problem is that most of the games have the bottom of the screen cut off and won't fit correctly on the screen Seems like it is going 4:3 and not widescreen and that is where the bottom of the screen is lost (just an observation) I am playing on a normal widescreen monitor on Windows 7 Ultimate. I have literally changed ever setting I can think of but still no luck Has this happened to anyone else ? If so any ideas of what settings I could change to resolve this issue ? Thanks in advance

Is the 'Big Fish Games' XML meant to direct players into their Big Fish accounts to play, similar to Steam, or do people use cracked versions of the games?

Hi guys. Have done a lot of searching but haven't had any luck. Looking for a Default PC Games theme. I have only found a Main Menu theme.

There are a few games on the Apple II that require the use of the Escape key. Some are not a big deal -- it may just be used to access an unimportant menu. One of the games, Taipan, actually requires you to press the "Escape" key to start the game! All of my Hyperspin stuff uses the Escape key to exit back to the menu (actually it is a multiple button press on my cocktail table) and I wanted to keep it uniform. So basically, I modded the game so you would press the space bar instead of the Escape key to start the game. I thought I'd share this with others so that you could do this also if you are a big fan of Taipan. First, I googled Taipan and found a site …

Oops... so i used hyperspin checker to rename some zipped files in mygames folder. I failed to realize i am supposed to only use this program on unzipped files. So now my issue is the zipped file shows up in the xml database, but the file inside still needs to be renamed. My main question Is there a tool that can rename the contents of my zipped game file to match and be the same as the name of the zip file its in. Or am I better off starting over with a fresh download, new folder of files to unzip , rename, and re zip each file 1 by

I haven't tinkered around with my arcade in quite some time, so I thought I would try and play some of the light gun games. After a bit of frustration, I've realized that the aimtrak guns work perfectly when I launch Area51 from MAME directly, but they go bananas when I try and launch it through HS as I would any other game. For example, the aiming is a bit shaky, and the first time I shoot off screen, the crosshair goes away completely. Has anybody else had this problem? Area51 has worked correctly many many times, so I'm not sure what happened! Furthermore, all other gun games seem to work just fine.

Hi all, I'm having an issue with a certain rom, Slap Fight (slapfigh.zip). When I tick the "Parent Only" option in Hyper HQ, Slap Fight disappears from my list in Hyperspin. There are 3 or 4 variations of Slap Fight but it seems as though it's not recognising any of them as parents. Any ideas? Thanks.

Gents, I'm trying to configure Atari Lynx for Hyperspin via RL and apply a bezel. When I hit F1 to enter the RA menu it automatically goes full screen and I can adjust the view point to center within the bezel. I've edited the Atarti Lynx.cfg through the retroarch menu as well as manually and it continues to blow up full screen once the RA menu appears. Is this core designed specifically to run in Fullscreen? My .cfg is attached. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!! Atari Lynx.cfg UPDATE: Just FYI when I configure other systems/cores I get the green RetroArch menu. For this particular system is comes up blue as if I …

I have been configuring HyperSpin after the initial setup and it is going well. MAME is fine and have all of the games I want. However, when I went to put NES on there, the emulator pops up in another window. I have the setting in HyperHQ that says "Execution: HyperLaunch", but it goes out of HyperSpin and then gives control to the Fceaux window instead of keeping in within HyperSpin like MAME does for the games. The games come up fine, but is this an issue with the emulator settings that I can change or the HyperSpin settings where I can get it to spawn the way the MAME ones do so it doesn't look like there is 2 windows open? Attached a screenshot to make it more c…

Hi guys! I'm calling on the experts here. Upon recently updating HL-3 to rocketlauncher I have noticed that the "filter roms only" feature in hyperhq seems broken. I am aware that during the rocketlauncher update some of the hyperhq settings regarding the launcher were changed. I can get the rom filter working if I re-enter the full path to the roms and put in the rom extension (for only ONE rom extension). However it doesn't work if I put in 2 rom extensions (e.g. tape and disk extension for spectrum). I am separating the extensions in hyperhq by a comma and it still doesn't work. Rocketlauncher seems to use both extensions at once. Has anyone got a fix? …

Hello again, I am in the process of updating my .xml database files and i am finding that some emulators are not recognizing as may roms as the old .xml files. Is this a naming issue, or are the entries just not included in the new .xml file? if it is a naming issue, are there tools to rename roms to match the names in the .xml file? Thanks in advance

Hi guys What needs to be done to have wheel sounds play? I have a NES wheel with a couple of hundred mp3 files in this folder: D:\HyperSpin\Media\Nintendo Entertainment System\Sound\Wheel Sounds The sounds play fine in HyperSpin. If I remove all of those sounds and replace with some WAVs I have created myself, they don't play. If I delete the WAVs and just pop in 1 or 2 of the original MP3 files I don't think they play. If I re-save the WAVs as MP3s they don't seem to play. Is there any documentation about this? I must be missing something or being daft! Do you need a certain number of sounds files in the folder? Do they have to be M…
