As someone whose last console was a Sega Genesis back in 1993 (I've been a PC guy ever since), I have to ask, at what point do you stop applying CRT filters? Right now I have them applied up to the Saturn/Playstation generation. I find that the N64, GameCube, PS2 and Dreamcast look better without CRT filters. I also can't remember what DOS games looked like on a computer CRT monitor despite having used one for years. Do you apply CRT filters DOS/ScummVM games? Just trying to tweak everything to look proper. Memory is fuzzy. Any input on this would be appreciated.

Running MAMEUIFX 172 and currently using GLSL as the shader type. Everything works great for both Horizontal and Vertical games except for a few Bally-Midway games. They display differently than the rest. They look like GLSL is doubling the number of shader lines making to many "pixels" on screen all squished together. Doesn't matter which specific shader (HQ, MQ or LQ Geom. Lottes etc...) they all squish to tight. It only happens on certain Bally-Midway games in the '80 - '84 range. Spy Hunter, Xenophobe, Rampage, Arch Rivals, Blasted, Discs of Tron, Max RPM etc... I was thinking maybe it was because Bally-Midway used a weird monitor/resolution during this period, but…

Hello, I'm having a cabinet built, I'm not sure how this all works, I know I will have a 500GB SSD for quick bootup running the OS, but I'm not sure if Hyperspin is placed on the SSD or if it will be on the secondary 6 TB drive that will hold games. I also see those WD white label 6TB drives for $159.99 which are 5700rpm and 64MB of cache, or the 5700rpm 128MB version which is $179.99. I'm worried that 5700 isn't fast enough and I would need 7200 for newer PC games, can you confirm if 5700 vs 7200 or 64MB Vs 128MB will make a difference or how it is setup. Potentially I would be playing newer gen PC games or PS2, but mostly arcade classic emulators. Thanks

hi guys! well since i change to W10 and updated HS with RL i had a couple of troubles to get everything to work again, just a few systems nothing serious, but now i'm having a lot of troubles with SSF emulator. i found out that i didn't need a SCSI virtual drive to play the games, i can use a DT virtual drive as well but i had the idea that i only can use SCSI with HyperSpin, anyway now when i push enter to play a Saturn game it doesn't do anything, i can see the RL logo on the task bar and then it close itself, the emulator works fine by itself and launching it through RocketLaucherUI it does mount the games and launches the emulator but this doesn't happen through Hyper…

Hi guys! i need help, so i have Daemon Tools Lite 10.2 licensed of course, as in download section says that i have to set the path to DTAgent.exe that's what i did and nothing happens when i try to run SSF, is the only emulator that i have that needs to use DT, running it alone without Hyperspin works fine but of course i have to mount the image in a SCSI drive, the thing with this Daemon Tools is that is not like the older ones where you can create a virtual device, in this DT only creates one when you mount an image and when you close it the drive dissapears, i have windows 10 so there is no way i can use olders DT because the SPTD install file that uses those DT is not…

I have a Mame cab that I got from someone running advancemame/advancemenu on linux. Works great for now, but advancemame is years behind mame and I had really planned for a different setup, so I'm in the process of collecting all of the latest files and graphics I need to do it the way I want. I plan on using Hyperspin for my front end after some serious evaluation, just signed up last week and downloaded a bunch of artwork and themes, now I just need to figure out what to do with it all! Anyway, I posted a question on the BYOAC forums about Mame clones, wondering if anyone had a list of clones that were better or different enough from the parent. I have all of the ro…

Hi; I need a little help, I have Hyperspin up and running but I've notice some of the emulators(NES,SNES,and Segea Genesis) are running real slow/sluggish and the sound is real choppy. My MAME and other emulators are running perfectly but I can't figure out what's causing these emulators to not working correctly. Can somebody point me in the right direction. There has to be a setting that I can adjust or something. Thanks! Damon

Just wondering what emus you guys use for neo geo. I like winkawaks but I can never seem to get it to run properly through hyperspin. It seems to crash on start up or not boot full screen when it does. Though it runs brilliantly on its own and seems to be really compatible. So I currently use Nebula which runs well through HS but seems to be temperamental setting up controls and nearly always displays a error message while launching a game. Also the compatibility is not as good as winkawaks. So does anyone have any fixes for winkawaks or recommend another emulator that is better than both the above?

Hey all; I'm still a newbie at HyperSpin. I have it all set up and running but I've run into an issue. I'm using a 40 in Samsung TV as a monitor with a very powerful graphics card(GTX 1080). My PC is a full gaming rig but I wanted Hyperspin on it also. After doing some research I realized that my display setting is way to high for some of the emulators such as MAME, NES, and SNES. so I have to manually go into my display settings to change it from 3840 X 2160 to something like 1366 X 768 screen resolutions before entering Hyperspin. Is there some where I can set to do this automatically? I found some information where you can do it through HyperHQ using the STARTUP/EXIT…

My question in short; Is there a way to extend the time in which Hyperspin moves to the next random game in the list? -Or- until the video snap has finished playing? Why? I would like the Jukebox section to playout a video clip in full then randomize to the next video. P.S. Hyperspin still rules after all these years!

Almost done my 32X pack! I've been releasing a ton of packs lately as you've seen. Just been in a creative mood as of late. What took the longest for this pack was the exclusive Megadrive 32X Pal and Japan cases as well as 2 out of 3 of the known prototypes. Didn't find good quality art for protos and had a tough time getting good scans for pal exclusives. I made do and ended up trying to create a template for the Pal ones that stayed close to the original so i'm fine with it. Here are some samples, thanks for your time!

Hi everybody, I've been collecting roms for a while with the intention of setting up a fancy hyperspin fe based retro gaming station. I do however have a few requirements I couldn't find obvious (best) answers to: 1) While I appreciate most hyperspin users being English speakers they would only want the official database to include games playable without knowledge of Japanese, but I'd like to include all Japanese versions of games, even if they exist in English. From some research here, it seems the best way to do this would be to set up separate Japanese systems. Can someone confirm that, and any tips on achieving that? 2) Would I still be able to maintain my co…

I have two pretty recent versions of MAME (167 and 174). When I attempt to launch a game (specifically all the Metal Slugs) directly in MAME I get the standard red box notification of missing CHD or parent roms. Which, I believe I have. However, when I launch any of these games directly from HyperSpin it starts no problem. I am just curious if anyone knows how and why that could be? An XML thing? Thanks! Matt
