Hey everyone! We've been making significant progress on improving startup speed in HyperSpin and optimizing cache performance. Internal testing shows that startup times are now 3-4x faster, and cache rebuild times have been reduced to just 2-3 seconds, which is approximately 10x faster. Fixes and Enhancements Emulators: Fixed an issue where the launch button on the edit screen only worked when using default directories. EmuMovies: Resolved an issue where high-quality settings were not working correctly. Cache: Added a "Sync All Media" option. Cache: Revalidation now shrinks the database and builds much quicker…

Over the past week, we’ve refined the UI, streamlined performance at startup, and tackled key bugs affecting game lists. You can now rely on CRC checks for systems to get real-time status updates, and the newly refreshed UI design ensures smoother navigation. We’ve also addressed issues with RetroArch integration, resolved duplication errors, and consolidated logs for easier troubleshooting. Here’s what’s new: HyperHQ Emulators Launch Bug Fix: Resolved an issue preventing games from launching properly after editing an emulator. RetroArch Improvements: Fixed RetroArch core settings. Fixed a bug where custom RetroArch insta…

First off, a huge thank you to everyone who’s been testing, reporting bugs, and sharing feedback. Your input has been invaluable, and I really appreciate the patience as we work through everything. I know we didn’t have a launch last week, and I wanted to address that. Some core systems—especially the cache system and UI updates—needed more work before they were ready. Rather than pushing out something unfinished, we took the extra time to make sure things were in a better state before releasing. It’s still a beta, so expect some rough edges, but we feel this build is in a much better place than it would have been last week. Over the past two weeks, we’ve overhau…

We’re back! Thank you all for your patience while we finalized the new cache system this week. After a long week of travel, testing, and refinements, we’ve made significant improvements, fixed some stubborn bugs, and introduced new features based on your feedback. A few of you already spotted the early release, but here’s what to expect: Cache System Improvements The _cache folder is gone—freeing up space and eliminating unnecessary files. No more waiting for cache rebuilds in the wheel manager! Full cache rebuilds now take about 20 seconds per system. Smaller, more optimized cache files for better performance. Full support for ove…

Hey everyone! First off, a huge thank you to everyone who reported bugs, shared comments, and threw in suggestions over the past week. I’m doing my best to keep up, but it’s clear we’ve got an amazing group of testers who are leaving no stone unturned. You all rock! So, it’s been a week—where’s the next beta?! Well, here’s the scoop: we went back to the drawing board on the cache system. Based on your feedback and the discussions here, we realized we needed something more robust and foolproof. The good news? The updated cache system is in internal testing right now. During the final round, we uncovered a few extra things that need fixing before it’s ready to rol…
