I'am trying to finalize my MAME 0.153 setup... this is by far the system that takes my more work to understand and make work but is obvious as they are many machines and games covered by it.

Sometimes the simplest problems are the most frustrating... I'm converting from a Mala cab to a Hyperspin cab and so far I am awestruck at how easy it's been. But I'm having a problem getting Nestopia to act right. It works perfectly on it's own, it works perfectly from Mala, but when I run it from Hyperspin, it starts fine but immediately loses focus to Hyperspin. I'm on the NES wheel, select the game, the screen goes black as if the game's starting, then I'm looking at the NES wheel again. Nestopia is running in the background. I can alt-tab to it and it's running fine. I just can't figure out what's making it lose focus. The command line Mala uses is the plain vanill…

Hello everyone, I am having trouble setting up a few of my nintendo systems. When launching a system that uses Nestopia in Hyperspin I get the alert "Nintendo Famicom Disc System is an invalid system name or nestopia.exe isnt supported yet" The system seems to launch fine in Hyperlaunch. Any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong. Cheers

I'm using Demul 0.5.8.2 to emulate Dreamcast games. Every time I launch a game, controller 1's LCD video emulation screen also appears, usually in the middle top of the screen. Is there a way to either hide the LCD video window or always set it to draw at, say, the top left corner or something? Thanks!

Guys Im fairly new to the scene. I have built a cab, got MAME up and ru8nning in Hyperspin and everything that side is great. I downloaded all the wheel art which again is fine. I have downloaded the game themes and this is where I am having issues. Do i unzip each and everyone to their own individual folder in the media folder? I cant seem to get the themes to change. The default one works fine, i have tried deleting the default theme, but all that does is leave the wheel, and take away my videos. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong please?

I know what you're thinking; "he's got the rom named wrong". But I don't. I even went as far as to copy from the xml and paste it into my rom name. For whatever reason, there are a couple of games on dreamcast that won't show up in my games wheel. So far I've noticed that Skies of Arcadia and Street Fighter III - 3rd Strike aren't showing up. The version I found of skies was a 2 disk so i copied the xml code and made it 2 disks in there. Here's where it gets weird, the disc 2 version shows up in my wheel, but not disc 1. Street Fighter doesn't show up at all. Here's the xml code that I'm using: <game name="Street Fighter III - 3rd Strike (USA)" index="" image=…

Hey everyone, I just installed the new demul. But when I try to use hyperlaunch to launch a game, I get a message saying it's missing the gdrimage.ini file. Is that found on the FTP, or does it need to be created? I didn't see it anywhere in my demul .57 setup, but I'm sure I could be just overlooking it. Thanks in advance

Hey everyone, I think the basis of this question was answered, but I was looking for a little bit more info. I have keep aspect turned off, and currently all games are stretched. How can I make it so that some games keep original aspect and some do not? Take darius for instance. When I go to the game and look under video options, all the different available options still keep the game stretched. Do I have to edit the actual ini for the game? Thanks

Hi Everybody, One Simple question just to be sure understanding well... when you set your keys with xpadder and save your profile (eg to use for Hyperspin main menu), then select the profile via Hyperlaunch HQ, does the Xpadder needs to be run at windows startup or is it automatically launch by clicking Hyperspin program? I looked the perfect tutorial video but it seems it's not mentionned Thanks Darage

I've been having this issue for a while now and decided to re-download Hyperspin and start from scratch. I've looked around the forums and most of the threads state that the issue is not having a sound driver installed. I can hear everything Hyperspin is doing and upon clicking "Games", which is the only sub-wheel I have added, it returns to the Main Menu. Now all I did aside from what the default installation did was create a new database folder called 'Games' with the original 'Main Menu' xml renamed to Games inside of the folder. I used HyperHQ to make the only thing on the Main Menu the 'Games' sub-wheel. And there are no current filters set, such as only wheels with …

Unless someone knows a simple solution to stop the prosystem emulator from making horrible attempts at sound, I am interested in knowing a way to shut off the sound for good. i have been troubleshooting the sound for the last 5 or so hours with no results. the emulator seems to skip with the audio, the roms work fine, loads, and runs fine, just doesnt sound pretty. So does anyone have an idea how to permanently shut the audio off? I have also tried using both emu7800 and mess with no good result. i use an x-arcade controller which i have set everything for the default keys already, so emu7800 is out due to not being able to maps keys. Mess was just an absolute Mess to …

I just dived into hyperspin and have read through posts regarding the 360 wireless controller and using a keymap program. I bought xpadder and started working on it and thought to myself sure someone has allready configured this and done the emu specific profiles. Has anyone posted these are the profiles available for download? Can anyone with a 360 wireless setup zip up their \Profiles\Xpadder directory? maybe and any relavent configs. Yes I am lazy, I am willing to host the files on my VPS or S3 for others though. Edit: found this after more searching, anyone have the rest ? http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?29048-Can-t-use-Xpadder-in-Hyperlaunch-H…

Hey guys, Noob question. Im trying to get my VMU working on NullDC, and after doing some reading, it seems I need to get to the screen that would load if there were no game in the console i guess. My problem, is that NullDC autoloads the last game I play, and normal boot doesn't seem to change that. Any thoughts?

Hi there, I am trying to complete my ZX Setup, i have a TOSEC set of ZX Spectrum, but have no idea what file format i should be using with Spectaulator 8.0. Is there a difference in the quality of the games depending on format. I really have no idea. So far i have manually renamed 50 or so of the 4828 games on the XML i have. I cant use Dons renamer with that XML for some reason, it errors out on me. Can i use CMP somehow to rename them to match the XML and media? I dont fancy manually renaming 4700 odd roms Any help would be greatly appreciated, Ross

Ok let me start explaining my setup. I have build a really cool bartop. I thought I just be quick by getting a 2TB disk from someone and use that so it would save a lot of work. Well it does not and I am getting really frustrated ! I have watched a lot of tutorial videos in setting in up, but nothing seem to work. Emul upgraded from 5.6 to 5.8.2 since it performs better in my setup. I used to same folder structure as the original, but for some reason it hangs on the hypersplash screen. What I did is I renamed the old folder to "Atomiswave_old" and made a new folder for Atomiswave. I used the same AHK file... is there something I forgot? I just do not understand wh…

Hello, I would like to know how the release pace of MAME Plus is, MAME 0.153 was released about 2 weeks ago, and almost all front ends got up to date but not MAME Plus, I converted all my romset to 0.153 so while most games still play some don't. Just curious if they follow the main numbering. -I also have some questions. On MAME GUI I could remove joystick support on GUI, can I do the same with MAME+GUI? I can't see anything on options. -How are default keys configured? I edited the file default.cfg inside the cfg folder, but everytime a game crashes (for whatever reason), the default.cfg file is blanked and a custom game .cfg file is created, overriding any future def…

Hi all, A few days ago my hard drive died, the boot drive of my Hyperspin pc. Luckily, I have most of my Hyperspin setup and emulators on an external hard drive. So, after installing a new boot drive (upgrading from Windows Vista to Windows 7 in the process) I got my setup running again. Most of my emulators seem to be running just fine, even though a few needs setting up again. So far so good. But I have a problem with MAME that I just can't solve. I can't use my HLSL settings anymore. They worked fine when using my previous boot drive (Windows Vista). But after my new Windows installation nothing happens when I turn on HLSL in the MAME ini file. I know MAME reads the i…

I saw that in the hyperlaunch module the graphics plugin is by default 11. I had to set it to 10 because otherwise it would run slow when I set the internal resolution to x2 (which in my opinion is a must in this emulator). (I use a quadro 600 on Win7x64 so there shouldn't be any issues really). This is no biggie except that on DX10 when I set the ratio to 4:3 (for display on my 16:9 TV) the ratio I get is more stretched than that, like kinda 3:4 or so. Can someone confirm or/and tell me how to change this ratio manually? I'm using last version. Thank you!

Hi All I have been setting up hyperspin for the last week and got most games working, I have just come to set up the sega saturn emulator SFF, I renamed the roms using the rom renamer which renamed the bin cue's and put them in individual folders, I tried to run them from hyperlaunch and they run fine but when I try to run from hyperspin it does not seem to see them. If I take the bin cue's out of the individual directories and rename the bin and the cue to the same (game name from hyperspin database) hyperspin then sees and launches the game, is there a setting I need to set so as to leave them in there own folders otherwise its going to take me till Christmas to ren…

Finally got around to setting up my Spectrum games but I'm having issues with Spectaculator 8. After a few minutes of play, the game will freeze and spectaculator will minimize to the desktop. I can still press Alt-Tab or click the taksbar icon and the game will resume. I'm using Windows 8.1. I've tried compatibility mode and running as administrator, uninstalling and re-installing Spectacultor and nothing seems to solve the issue. This happens outside hyperspin as well so it's not an issue with hyperspin. Does anyone have this problem? Also, is there a way to reset the emulator settings to default or delete the config file? Seems like after re-installing, it still ret…

Hi. I'm relatively new to setting the software so please forgive me if the question is relatively simple. I've setup Hyperspin (MAME only) with approximately 150 games. The themes, ROMs etc are perfectly fine and when connecting a keyboard all function as they should. Based on this I'd say MAME and Hyperspin are performing as they should and setup correctly. Next step is connecting my Mini-Pac to the controller I've made. Once again quite simple compared to others. It has 6 buttons, a Mag Stik Plus joystick, Spintrak spinner, Player 1 and 2 buttons and a single coin button. When all connected and checking against the interactive designer it would appear they are all conn…
