Hi everyone, I have House of the Dead 2 PC version installed on my computer. I can't figure out how to play a local 2 player game. I mean, I don't know how to "press start" for the second player. Yeah, I know, that's a stupid question, but I just can't get the second player to activate. Any ideas ? Thanks for the help.

Accidentally posted my question in the "HyperSync Support" area, meant to post it here yesterday. My question is: Just as the title states, the (D) Drive is missing in the Disk Management section, but shows when I click "This PC". I am using Windows 8.1 btw. Any ideas, or recommendations on how to fix this? I've even tried "Minitool Power Data Recovery". I need it in order to use Hyperspin from my external dive, or is there an alternative way to install it via the external drive? Is it possible to copy hyperspin to another drive other than D since it is missing? I only want to play from the external drive, not copy it to my hdd drive. Any help would be appreciated. Thank…

So I'm installing Hyperspin and I've downloaded the frontend update files. Kaspersky keeps deleting Hyperbrite as a virus. I can't workout how to stop it being deleted again once I restore it from quarantine. Do I really need Hyperbrite, or more directly will Hyperspin run if it is not present in the install folder. As far as I can gather it's something to do with LED displays or am I incorrect Thanks guys

I spent a few hours trying to track down this information but eventually got the Xarcade tankstick trackball working with MAME inside of hyperspin. I noticed a lot of people had the same problem I did in that the trackball worked in mame but not in hyperspin. The steps I went through to make it work were as follows. Using Mame - Version 0.156 Hyperspin - Version 1.3.2.0 HyperlanuchHQ - Version 1.0.13.0 Windows 7 64 bit Pre-configuration - Verify the trackball is working by attempting to use it in windows to move the mouse cursor. If the cursor dow not move your trackball isn't confiogured or working properly. Fix this before proceeding. - Verify mame i…

Ok after reinstalling due to dumb ass user error, (i overwrote GRRR), When i launch HyperSpin it starts, i see the start up video, and when its done i see the wheel with all the default systems. When i select Mame nothing happens, it just kinda starts the selection process again. I i have the Emu and Rom paths correct in HyperLaunchHQ. I set them in HyperHQ, select the MAME wheel, and set the rom path and emu path. Should i be checking anything else in this area? Like i said i get nothing when i click mame from the wheel. i doesnt take me to the sub menu/game list. I tried it will Atrari 2600 and stella as well. Nothing. Thanks for the help.

After I start up hyperspin, and move inside a wheel such as mame. I cant exit back out to the main wheel to select another system. All it does is asks me to exit completely from the program. I had a backup of hyperlaunch, and restored it, but the problem persisted. Am I just braindead? Or is this the way the new hyperlaunch is supposed to function? Chris

Installed RocketLauncher.1.0.0 Hyperspin boots up fine, games run perfect. Just can't open the Hyperlaunch.exe in the HyperLaunch folder without getting the error: Cannot find C:\Users\Arcade\Desktop\Hyerspin\HyperLaunch\HyperLaunchHQ\Databases\Systems.xml There is not database folder in my HyperLaunchHQ folder. Hyperlaunch.exe opens fine in my previous Hyperlaunch build. Just having issues with the BETA. BTW...I've already added Hyperspin as my Default and Active frontend in HyperLaunchHQ under the HyperLaunchHQ tab. Thanks in advance

Hello All, I have only just recently downloaded Hyperspin but have spent the last several hours trying to get it running on my computer. I followed the install guide and have been able to launch Hyperspin and map different emulators to it. My issue is that when trying to launch a game from Hyperspin, pressing the start button does not have any effect. I have been trouble shooting this and gone through several other tutorials. One issue I have noticed is that I do not show any systems listed on the left hand pane of HyperLaunch. It only shows Global. I try to add new systems to this section through the green "+" sign but after going through the wizard, it does not add an…

You need the rom names (i.e. 005). Use Don's List Generator for what you are trying to do. http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?25233-Don-s-HyperSpin-Tools-4-2-Official-Release John

to make your own list the way i found to make a good list without spending day of keying in one Rom at a time! you will need 3 programs to do this! Found in attach. HyperROM2XML_1.5_bin.zip (106.0 KB) will make your list from your personal Rom directory the ones you want to run on hyperspin. it will screw up the xml. so hyperspin cannot read it. so you have to fix it with hyperspin rommanager tool. hyperspin_rommanager_1.0-mk2k.zip (143.8 KB) great for scanning errors! as simple as a "&" in you rom list will make your xml fail! refers you to change it to a "&" example line 1009 npp.6.6.9.Installer.zip (7.45 MB) notepad++ to edit the xml created by HyperROM2…

Moved my hyperspin setup from my external hd to my new internal on my new cab... Here is the issue ....having followed all the normal steps for new install, and thought I would test it before shelling it Hyperspin loads fine. Everything is still there. But when I try to use HL or HLHQ it tells me it cant find net framework. The same when I try to load a game. Ive gotten so spoiled by HLHQ I'm not really sure where to look. INI files?

I fired up my arcade cab. the other day and something is not right with HyperSpin. Every time I run it, it goes directly to GameBoy on the wheel when I run HyperSpin. All my other systems are there in the main menu but every time I select one when it should go to the sub menu, it goes right back to GameBoy on the main wheel. Also I noticed when I hit the the key that is assigned to "back" in the main menu it pause whatever video is on the screen. It is the strangest thing! All the keys are sat correctly in HyperSpin and I opened notepad to make sure all the button presses were correctly assigned and they are. What should I check next?

K guys Since git has never worked for me, I'm having to update manually. I've found the proper link and downloaded the source zip from the correct location . I'm very scared of messing this up. How do I extract this? Just extract it right to my "hyperlaunch" folder and overwrite everything? If this is the proper way, when it overwrites everything am I going to lose all my emulator setups etc? That's my huge worry. If only git would work for me, just my luck! Happy holidays! May your holidays be filled with high scores!!

How do I setup themes in Hyperspin? For instance the Nintendo Game Boy. I managed to successfully add the system into the wheel along with the games. Emulator works but I don't have a theme for any of it. Found one in the forums and placed it in the media > Emulator Name > Theme but nothing comes up.

How do you get hyperspin to support jpgs? In the wheels section? Instead of just .png Is there an ini file that I have to update or something?

I'm building my arcade machine primarily for myself but I am also going to let my 4-year old nephew and 6-year niece play on it. There are games that I would not want them to play. So the first idea is: <game name="1941" index="" image=""> <description>1941</description> <age>10</age> <cloneof></cloneof> <crc></crc> <manufacturer></manufacturer> <year></year> <genre></genre> </game> Then I start Hyperspin like this: hyperspin --age=11 HyperSpin will only show games in the Wheel where the age tag is 12 or higher. Is this possible? 2. The other option is to clo…

Hey gang. I've got a home arcade and I've been using the WeMo power switch to turn the games on and off. This is really handy because some of the classic arcade power switches can be hard to get to. I have a few MAME cabs running hyperspin and I'm wondering how I might incorporate them into this system. I can set each machine to boot after power loss in order to turn them on, but obviously I don't want to do a hard shutdown on the machines by cutting the power. I'm wondering if there's some way I can do this so that I'm not using one button on my cell phone to turn on/off my arcade, then manually hitting the switches on my MAME cabs, or motioning through the shutdown pro…

Hi folks: A bit new to Hyperspin, and so far so good - great support and user community compared to other front ends for sure. So I have a lot of MAME games working, but I can't seem to get Pacman to show up in the MAME wheel. I can't seem to find anything here that will help me, so I figured posting for help is my last option. This is what I've done. 1. I have the pacman.zip ROM, tested it in my MAME emulator and it works fine. 2. Downloaded and put pacman.zip theme from Hyperspin Downloads into the Media\MAME folder. 3. Edited the MAME.XML file from the DATABASE directory to reflect pacman.zip as shown below: <game name="pacman" index="" image=""> …

Hello everyone. Today something weird happened to my Hyperspin, so what exactly happened is that in my turbografx 16 section only wheel art shows up. I'm using the default theme from the site. On main wheel I can see the general TG16 logo, art and everything but once inside it shows only wheel art. It was ok before. I was going trough forums and people been saying I need to uncechk "themes wait for special" in HQ optimizer but thats how it was in my settings from the beginning.
