Can anyone help! I get this error when trying to open any game. I also had a problem with no into when starting hyperspin. But fixed that when I reinstalled Hyper HQ and enabled the into video on the startup tab. Note: I can launch the games in Rocket launcher UI in the games tab. Although in the emulator global menus all the list has errors. But don't know if this has anything to do with the error I'm getting

I`ve been recording videos for some systems in the last months, as I test them, I let bandicam ready, when I test the games, I recorded the game-play , now I have uploaded over 500+ across systems, most, if not all, aren`t still available at emumovies, I`ll be posting these links there too. For the PS1, most videos are for Japanese titles. Bandicam records them in their original resolution, with the highest quality setting, I encode them later using another software, so the videos end up in something like 9,5 mb per file. I do not record the press start screens, so these videos are probably more a placeholder than anything. PS2, there were some games …

Im trying to create the interface from scratch with all images instead of video etc. Does the system only allow 720p images or can this be changed so it supports 1080p backgrounds ?

Happy Holidays Hyperspinners !!! Just sharing a few updates I made with my fighting wheel. I'll post them in the downloads section for those interested. There was a fighting wheel floating around years ago. I completely re-vamped and cleaned up the database, also adding tons of fighting games from various systems. Hopefully for most, ZERO rom renaming. Most of them are Matching official databases. I set mine up thru the M.A.M.E. Module, simply adding ,"Fighting Games" to system name on the module. If your unsure, make a back-up of the module or re-visit this wheel down the road. The RocketLauncher guys wouldn't be happy with me if they have a flood of post…

I am running MAME64 0.180 with the latest Hyperspin and Rocketlauncher and would like to use BGFX for my shaders. I can get it to work if I launch a rom from mame64 directly, but if I load up Hyperspin, it ignores my BGFX settings in my mame.ini. I'm not sure if this is a Hyperspin thing or Rocket launcher, but if anyone is using BGFX with the two, please let me know how you got it to work. Thanks!

I'm pretty new to the mame scene but just setup a mame cabinet at home. I love seeing the HLSL settings people have posted for previous versions of mame, but I don't see any for the .180. My question is, if I use settings from a previous version, like .174, will they work on my .180 version? If not, does anyone have a good HLSL setting to share? Or a .ini file to share? Thanks!

I am done configuring and testing my emulators and roms so I'm moving on to Hyperpause does anybody know what systems are compatible with Hyperpause? also how do you configure save slots on hyperspin? I plan on building a pedestal style arcade, would it be better to wait and have that built with my control panel so I can set Hyperpause to certain buttons rather than keyboard keys?

Just booted up my PC with Hyperspin installed and for some reason the shortcuts no longer work. They are on my desktop but the icon images have changed for both HYperspin and HyperHQ. Even if I go into the Hyperspin directory Hyperspin.exe has disappeared! There is a shortcut in that folder but that doesn't work. Exactly the same the same thing has happened with HyperHQ as well! Windows is giving the error that the .exe file had changed or moved. I don't undersdtand this..... I've done nothing with this PC since I last used it. So... I decided to plug in my mirror backup drive that I made some time ago. And that is exactly the same! My PC seems to be changing the…

So, every single game that has ' in the title does not display genre, publisher, or year when fading into a game using Rocketlauncher's fade feature. Perhaps this is a Rocketlauncher issue, HOWEVER, after looking at the databases, the entries for the games have ' instead of '. In other words, Fester's Quest will display as Fester's Quest in the xml itself. Bleasby was able to get it working for my NES games with a simple download of a hyperspin plugin (still not working for every other system as far as I can tell), but I don't understand why the lists don't just use ' instead of '. It's causing problems. It's not necessary. It looks terri…

I found it hard searching for this given the command is the same name as the product which is the same name as the website! Sorry if I've missed it. In Hyper HQ > Controls > Keyboard, there is an option called HyperSpin. I've set it to a key on my keyboard but whenever I press that key in HyperSpin nothing happens. Can someone please explain what it is for and what it should do? Thanks - and sorry for asking what might be a dumb question! Thanks

Hi guys, I've been going back and forth with Hyperspin and this error message of "Super Nintendo Entertainment System" Invalid System Name or snes9x.exe is not working". Everything works outside of Hyperspin so its not the emulator. Could someone direct me in the right direction?! Is there something wrong with my AHK files or the database files???? It's been 3 days and I still can't get around this issue! Any help would be appreciated

Hi, I'm building a new machine with a Mame 0.180 romset. Hyperlist had a downloadable 1.6 database so this will not match my romset. I see that Rocketlancher allows me to create a database, which I guess is based on sending -listxml to MAME. Why would I want to use a downloaded old database over one created from the emulator? Not a loaded question, I only want to learn. Thanks, Brett
