My goal: This is my fist time using HyperSpin. I'm trying to setup HyperSpin with a MAME only wheel, this build will have about 60 mame games in addition to a single PC game: Fix it Felix (since it's going in a Fix it Felix cab) My Setup: I'm running Windows XP on an older Core 2 Duo based system and I'm using a self-compiled command-line MAME with no-nag and high scores. HyperSpin is setup and working to my liking and has no problem launching MAME and returning back to the menu. My First Attempt: I was able to get Fix it Felix Jr to appear on the MAME wheel by editing the XML file and adding it to the list among all the other MAME titles. Since MAME wont actually …

I've been trawling the forums and haven't been able to find someone with the same issue... I've setup HyperLaunchHQ and XPadder as per various different guides but I cant get it right. When hyperspin launches it does not select the correct profile, when a game is launched (znesw) it quits out of Xpadder and does not relaunch it when the game closes. In the Keymapper / Global, I have a HyperLaunch, HyperSpin, Blank and _Default profile (which I pinched off someone offering a solution to someone else also having problems) and they all open and test fine from within HyperLaunchHQ. Under general settings I have Xpadder path setup, Frontend Profile Name HyperSpin, Frontend…

I have a question and a request. Hyperspin will be running in an arcade cabinet with arcade controls (joysticks, buttons, spinner, trackball), an X-Box 360 controller, and 2x light guns. Several systems I have configured to use X-Box 360 controller as these systems "feel" better with the controller such as SNES or the NEC systems. What I would like to do is when a user selects a system say SNES something notifies the user to use the X-Box 360 controller for the system / game. This is especially true with some of the PC Games and TTX games where I have tried to stay true to the arcade feel by using the arcade stick and buttons but other systems either don't function that w…

Hi all, I probably have missed something simple but I have put Hyperspin on the PC and now hyperspin launches into the main menu wheel only. When I press Enter to open up a system(MAME for example or any of the other systems) instead of opening up to the system theme and wheel the screen goes black and then comes back to the main menu wheel sitting on MAME wheel image. Also instead of the ESC button exiting Hyperspin it freezes/pauses the transitions/videos etc on the theme. When ESC is pressed again it unpauses. I have tried changing both keys for esc and enter in hyperlaunch with no success. Currently the only way that I can exit is to use taskmanager to endtask. P…

Hi, I searched high and low and could not find a thread about this... My setup uses an ipac with 2 joysticks. Player 1 controls are 100% fine, but with joystick #2, it's basically impossible to navigate menus in hyperspin. If I tap up or down to switch between systems or games, it skips 2 or 3 almost every time (and basically scrolls full speed immediately). IE: If I hold "down" or "up" for player 1, I hear 2 clicks through my speakers. One right away, and another a second later when it starts going very fast. Player 2 acts as if it is skipping that first click and the delay and immediately just scrolls fast (and you only hear one click in the speakers). Yes, k…

Clone Roms... Can I hide duplicates in Hyperspin? Also, what dictates the games list in Hyperspin? For instance I have MAME .147 and the ROM set that goes with it... but there are a few games in that set that appear when I run MAME but not when I run Hyperspin... the list doesn't reflect a complete list of ROMs I have. So I was wondering how to update that list. Maybe use HyperSync? Dont' know. I use HyperSync to get pictures and movies for my games, but maybe there's a way to update the game list through this UI. Not sure. Thanks for helping me out.

I have downloaded the preconfigured hyperspin project torrent that was floating around. The whole setup seems to be based off version 1.0. Can I upgrade to the newest release and still keep the packaged wheels, settings, and video previews? If not what is the best way for me to get current but retain the artwork and such from this existing setup? Thanks so much

Hi Gang, Long time Hyperspinner here building a Shmup only cab at the moment. I've got my rom list ready to go but I can seem to be able to create an database xml file from the HyperList HyperApp on the site. The generated list only shows 1 enty, the last in my list. I've tried with plain text and via xml file. Am I doing something wrong or is the tool broken at the moment? Is there an alternative? Here's my current games list: http://pastebin.com/36AJGpvL

The filter settings for roms, wheels and themes does not work correctly. Sometimes no games are shown, sometimes some are not shown. Is there a simple way to show only existing roms and wheels?

Hello guys, I suppose this is kinda off topic, but I am having issues with certain programs not functioning correctly after shelling my OS. In particular my issue is with Vjoy. For those that do not know, Vjoy is a program that basically replaced PPjoy. It is a program that simulates having a joystick plugged in and allows you to map the keys to the keyboard. Anyway, I just found out that if I kill explorer.exe, the Vjoy process stays up if it was already running. But if I close Vjoy and try to reopen it, it just pops up in the process list and disappears quickly. The program works perfectly when explorer is running. The program uses the task bar to show its icon a…

Hi, I am setting up a fresh new installation of hyperspin and hyperlaunch and i am experiencing a problem. The control panel on my cab has 6 action buttons. When i launch a game in hyperspin and press 3 buttons simultaniously the screen will switch back to the hyperspin selection wheel. The emulator is still running in the background but out of focus. Sometimes it works the other way around. The emulator is still active on screen but in the background you will hear the hyperspin menu (intro video, wheel clicks). The 3 keys are mapped as A, S and Q. The same thing happens when i press those keys at once on a keyboard. Hint, start a game in hyperspin and try pressing t…

Hi everyone! I'm having the weirdest problem to date in my years of using Hyperspin, Hyperlaunch, HyperlaunchHQ, etc. I think it started when I finally installed a Wireless Xbox 360 receiver I got like 2 years ago... don't judge me lol Well, I was trying to configure Commodore Amiga, CD32, with FS-AUE and WinAUE, WinAUELauncher too.. but here is the problem I'm having. When I start now the PC (Arcade), it launch Hyperspin, I can use my Control Panel buttons to navigate (up and down), enter any game wheel, everything seems to work ok but when I want to start any game of any wheel it doesn't launch the game/emulator. I could hit that ENTER button all I want and i stay …

Hello, I've been working on mapping a 360 controller for all systems with xpadder. No issues until setting up snes9x. When I launch a game from hyperspin I can only move left. Outside of hyperspin launching directly it plays fine with the xpadder profile. The correct profile is loading when played in hyperspin but then my analog right or dpad right are dead. I can exit to the wheel and it properly changes to front end profile and all buttons work and behave normal. Any tips???

I've got the ZX Spectrum and C64 up and running and even played a few games last night. Quite the throw back to my childhood. Herein lies a problem. It seems that the c64 and Spectrum keyboards differ, and often per each game. For example, Summer Games may have certain buttons, whereas Ghostbusters uses directional keys. Spectrum (Skool Daze) uses O and P for left and right. What is the best method for trying to solve this? I've looked at the custom keyboard at the link below, but since I use a keymapper for joystick, I'm not sure if editing the kvm file will solve the issue http://www.lemon64.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=30463&start=7 http://slady.net/Sinclai…

Does anyone have a module for D-Fend reloaded with bezel support? I know the DosBox module has it but I have over 600 games all nicely setup in D-Fend and really don't want to change to DosBox as it requires a mess of things. The dosbox module was designed for exodos apparently.

Setting up hyperspin for about a week now and thanks to the forums and some youtube videos I've had success getting various emulators setup and running, proper XML files created for my romsets, and grabbing videos and artwork with the Emumovies download service. The emumovies service used my XML files to grab only the art and video that I needed but I noticed the wheel art/marquee things were missing. I tried using HyperSync and it seems to be ignoring my XML and simply downloading the artwork/video content for the entire romset, not just the games I have in the XML. Is there any fix for this? What's the best way to integrate wheel art that matches the game list in th…
