As you know, a lot of the early games had Japan, US and World versions, and the US version relied on the parent version to run. If I only want the US version to show in the wheel, can I just do what I did in HP1 and create a new folder for the Wheel ROMS to be in, point HyperSpin to that folder, and remove the parent versions? Or is there a way to select what games versions you want to be on the wheel in HyperHQ? I placed empty rom files (takes only 1k of disk space that way) in the following directory and pointed HQ1 to that folder as you can see in the image included. C:\HyperSpin\Media\MAME\Wheel ROMS

Need some clarity on the following: Override Folder/Getting Systems to show up in Hyperspin

Override feature 1. I can add media to the override folder, And it seems to populate in HLHQ... but it doesnt show up in Hyperspin. Is there a way to manually populate it in Hyperspin? (Wheel media for instance) 2. I added "Dice" as a custom system... and was able to add some wheel media. As a test. In order to add the Mainwheel. Im assuming it would go here? \Media\Systems\_overrides\MainMenu\MainMenuWheel\Dice.png <---- Is this correct? Cause this isnt showing up either. 3. \Media\Systems\_overrides\MainMenu\MainMenuTheme\Dice.mp4 <---- Say I wanted to add a full video theme for Dice. Im guessing it would go here? Custom Systems Ive added a cu…

Hi guys. Remember in Hyperspin 1 there was a problem with some arcade parts and you had to use a script for the controller in which you registered the buttons and joystick, or use third-party programs like xpadder or joy2key. At the moment, HyperHQ detects Xin-Mo controllers, but it works incorrectly. When setting up controllers in HyperHQ, the buttons are detected and binding, and the joystick only understands pressing down and to the right... But after launching Hyperspin, Xin-Mo Joystick work press down and to the right, but the buttons do not work at all... I would really like support for arcade parts like Xin-Mo and the like.

HI - I am still testing and will keep having questions/issues so will try and consolidate in seperate posts. I have installed latest MAME and pointed at rom sets. Some questions: 1) Searching/returning in large lists: I heard in the live stream/updates full searching is coming - GREAT. Will you also be addressing some minor issues like: when switching from list to artwork view, it returns you to the top of the list. Ideally context should remain. 2) Mame defaults: I installed latest MAME through HQ and great it all installed and metadata downloaded - but it seems the high score plugin is not available by default and 'nag' screen when launching games still …

1. The scraping of media has to improve immensely.... Sega Naomi for instance uses mame roms... and not one game has a logo. 2. How do you add media to a collection? Metal slug collection for instance... These dont recognize with the media manager and therefore nothing can be created... Id like to add a wheel for it... as well as a theme. Or is this something being added later.

Another question... not sure I have seen this yet: There are a number of excellent self contained external (not NoIntro) projects like ExoDOS (dos games), ExoWin (windows) and the Commodore Amiga / 64 (r0man0) which already have GameBase or other custom sets of roms/games and matching media already ready to go. These currently work amazingly with the usability provided by Hyperspin - you can drop them in and automate them with pre-build RocketLauncher scripts. Some of these projects are so far ahead in terms of breath, hard drive images (to prevent disk swapping etc) and matching media it would take years for other projects to catchup. Will HS2 event…

Hi, Still processing a lot of the Hyperspin 2 changes after viewing the stream. One thing I have always liked about Hyperspin has been the ability to movie it to another windows machine in a portable manner (file system copy). Havin had a quick install of V2, have noticed that it is tied to a windows style installer/uninstaller and shows up in the Add/remove list in Windows. Does this mean it is no longer portable and needs to be installed and setup each time and is tied to a Windows install? Appologies if this question has been answered, I couldn't find it.

Mapping the xbox controller. When I back out to exit. The "Exit" question pops up. At this point, it won't accept my commands from the controller. I have to go back to the keyboard and select enter there.

In my haste to get this program going I accidentally nuked my own setup. Not a big deal because I have other setups now. So I quickly setup NES and I was very surprised at how quickly the games ran, and just started working after point to the folders. It was a far cry from the old days. I liked that very much! Honestly great work team! Couple of issues I'm having on this Windows 10 system: - The new HyperHQ seems to but opening multiple instances in the task manager. And does not close properly unless I go in and "End Task" them. - The startup time on Hyperspin loading roms and assests is slow. No biggie for NES but I'm curious how long …

This is the startup/exit menu in HyperHQ for Hyperspin Is there a way to add something like this to Hyperspin 2 so it allows us to add a bat file etc to exit HyperHQ.exe and Hyperspin.exe completely, rather than it being stuck in the Task Manager ? FYI, When HyperHQ is closed theJoy2Key.bat file below kills Hyperspin.exe,HyperHQ,Joy2Key and anything else you want to close.

Since the last update to .35 all the themes are suddenly looking grainy when previously they were not (see below) It looks like there is a fine shader covering the screen for every system.

I uninstalled HyperHQ I deleted my HyperHQ folders on C:\ and D:\ (because of the multiple install bug) I deleted HyperSpin folder on D:\ When I reinstalled HyperHQ, it still had my login info cached, and the MAME system was still there (which I'm having problems deleting because of the auto-import rom bug) Where is the cached configuration hiding? Why can't all the configuration settings be stored alongside the app and basically be portable like every other front end system? Honestly, this is a straight deal breaker for me. When I click "uninstall" there shouldn't be any configuration left.

Hi guys. I have a question. If I don't have a platinum membership on EmuMovies, do I get no video previews? Even the worst quality ones won't be available? I usually have a basic membership, and you could download some amount of video clips from the site for free in SD quality. If you don't allow regular users to download videos in HyperHQ, then maybe you could at least put screenshots instead? We're back to the problems of membership, synchronization, and the inability to use your media manually..... I have ALL the video prewievs for the systems I need, some downloaded from EmuMovies, many other videos, for Japanese ROMs I made myself or found on other site…
