hey everyone. It's been about 3 years (having two kids and finishing grad school) since I installed and set up Hyperspin on a custom arcade cabinet. A lot has changed since then. With the new and separate Hyperlaunch features I feel kind of lost trying to set everything back up again. I'm starting my HyperSpin setup from scratch since I bought a new computer for my arcade cab as this is a project to hopefully set up a system so my kids can experience the awesome 80's and 90's video games had growing up. I have a couple of questions: 1. To create a custom game lists for each emulator is Don's Tools still recommended. Since its no longer supported is there an alternative?…

Took me a while to hammer out the details of actually getting an NES game to load. Now though when I click on the game to load it, it works... yet it opens up in the tiny default Nestopia box size (almost as if to taunt me lol). I've tried maxing the size on Nestopia while I've got it open via HS, but it just boots back to the game-select-wheel for NES. I also tried opening Nestopia on it's own, full screening it, then exiting... and proceeding to open via HS.. Same issue, boots back to wheel. The screen sizes on my desktop, HyperHQ, and Nestopia are all set at 1600x900. Anyone got the solution?

Some of my PS2 game have multiple CD's that require you to "insert game disc 2" etc. How do I set up HYPERSPIN and HYPERLAUNCH to automatically load multiple game disc when the game is selected.

My system crashed and the arcade no longer starts up in hyperspin. What must I do to make it go into hyperspin? It normally boots into Windows 7 then boots a few seconds later into hyperspin.

Hi all sorry for being a newb but I finally got my MAME cabinet together today and it looks sik so far (just need some decals) will post some pics soon. I have one probally simple question that I can't figure out. When I run a MAME game how do I create a shortcut to the controls to exit out of a MAME game and back into the main menu. Currently I have to slide out the keyboard tray and press ESC on the keyboard but I figure there must be a way to map an exit key to the control panel , thanks for any advice in advance.

Hi guys! New user to HypeSpin, and so far I'm loving it! After many hours, I've managed to get my NES ROMS & emulator to working as intended, but have run into an issue with my Super Nintendo emulators/ROMs. I've been hunting high & low on these forums & have seen issues regarding a bug with the having speakers unplugged, but that doesn't seem to be my issue. I've checked over my settings in HyperLaunchHQ & HyperHQ, and everything to me seems to be setup correctly. I've checked both zSnes & Snes9x, and they both work outside of HyperSpin. I've also made sure I am using the correct module, with the correct version of each emulator. I know it's prob…

My new build (trying to make it pretty compact, so basically after the machine and Hyperspin are started the keyboard/mouse can go away) only has a USB joystick available. Everything seems to be a go at this point... The question I have come to (without wrecking everything I have just done by screwing with the settings), is do I need to have xpadder and the Ghutch startup script? Will the startup script allow me utilize my USB joystick for controlling hyperspin and then when I start a game control MAME, or do I need xpadder installed with Ghutch code to allow me to do that? If both, I would get the xpadder up and running and then the script? If I need both, wher…

It's been a few years since I had my machine up and running (not much me time with a new little one running rampant). But I decided a couple of months ago to go with a new build with updated software (so this is a new machine totally new build - not trying to just update the old one). I followed to the letter on the build guide - http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?29481-How-to-install-HyperSpin&p=279515&viewfull=1#post279515 installed MAME, have all my ROMS and video, etc. have been in MAME and am able to play games, but when I launch Hyperspin I can't actually get it to launch the games. The games all show up, the videos play for each as I scro…

Never had this issue before but I recently copied everything over to a new hard drive. When I'm in Hyperspin, I can select a game and launch it just fine. The screen goes black for 2 seconds and then goes back to the hyperspin menu. Oddly enough the emulator did launch because I can do an Alt-Tab to select it. Once I bring the emulator back to the front, I get a black screen for 2 seconds and then the game starts and plays just fine. Hitting escape brings me back to hyperspin just like it's supposed to. This only seems to happen with two emulators, BlueMSX for Colecovision and Nestopia for NES. Seems like a timing issue but I'm not sure what or where, any ideas?

Hi everyone. I am trying to set it up so that I can launch Steam games by creating a wheel entry for the game and then having hyperlaunch launch a shortcut to the game. I am able to launch the game, but the audio from the game's preview video in Hyperspin is playing over the game audio. How can I stop this from happening?

Unused music samples from the original Donkey Kong game 1981. It might be a cool idea to add/replace these sound samples with either Donkey Kong II or Donkey Kong Pauline Edition. Just a thought. https://tcrf.net/Donkey_Kong_%28Arcade%29#Unused_Music

Good morning beautiful people. Im so close to finishing my Hperspin setup I can taste it so a big thank you to the helpfule community. I'm just having one more issue lol and was hoping for some suggestions. 1) Im using the X-Arcade stick on my cabinet as the controls and have it setup to controll Hyperspin with no problem. But....when I plug in an extra controller to play say either Playstation gamecube etc (I have a ps controller a gamecube one and a wii controller) an error comes up in my Hperspin saying to setup xpadder and then I can't control the wheel with the X-Arcade stick. My question is do I have to setup an xpadder for each controller in order to use the e…

Hi guys, my setup has been flawless for about 2 years when I fired up Mame and none of my xbox 360 gamepads are working ( They work in the Hyperspin Menus as well as all the other Emulators ) I closed out Hyperspin and started MAME up on its own and all my controllers work fine, Custom cfg for them is being used. Reload Hyperspin and same problem, I hit Tab on my keyboard and I can configure each game for the controllers and it will save the settings. This is very problematic due to how many games I have and some of the custom configurations aren't saving propely. What could cause Hyperspin to not load my MAME controller config properly when it loads fine outside of Hyper…

Howdy all, I have almost got all my emulators working and videos/pics loaded now for Hyperspin and I am so pleased with the fast and helpful response from the forum members I just have two questions if I may: 1) I know this may be an xppadder issue but when I run xpadder with my X-Arcade tank stick it doesn't recognise it. No matter how many times I disconnect and reconnect it doesn't show up. It shows up in my device list so it is connected because I can play MAME games on it fine. Has anyone used one for their arcade machine? If so is there a work around? Thanks again for any advice, I get my cabinet next week to start putting my machine together can't wait ha…

Hi guys, I've been doing a fresh install of hyperspin on a dedicated console system and have been getting no end of trouble with getting my controllers to work. Im using 2 x DS4 controllers with Inputmapper and Xpadder. I'm only focused on HS for now although I've loaded zSNESw for testing purposes and getting a similar issue in there (although I haven't test that thoroughly). I originally tried ghutch's Hyperspin Startup Script but I had a glitch where the dpads wouldn't kick in for 20 seconds. I couldn't work through that so now I'm still using the script but instead using xpadder to map the keys (Joysticks_Enabled=False in the script). This works great for p1, but I …
