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.

I thought there was a thread on this, but I couldn't find it. I want to launch flash games on HS. I seen it in videos on youtube. What is the best program to launch the flash games, preferably with fullscreen/stretch capabilities, that will launch the flash games. Not internet based, but the actual flash file?

I'm trying to setup Game Boy and Game Boy Color on my Hyperspin. Very new to the software but managed to get a few emulators up and running just fine. However I'm running into a problem getting the Gameboys setup. I have everything running fine, I can see the systems on my wheel along with the game list. When I choose a game it opens and starts to play but then Hyperspin gives me an error saying something along the lines of waiting for Playguy to open and to make sure I have the correct version of the emulator installed. I hit ESC and go back to Hyperspin where I can exit the program and my emulator will still be playing in the background. Any ideas what I should be doi…

Hello Everyone, My friends and just finished building a 4 player arcade style pedestal that was manufactured by Monster Arcades. Everything is hooked up, but we're having trouble mapping the controls to the emulators that are ran through hyperspin. Is there software we need to be able to map these controls? We're having a hard time trying to figure out how to map each emulator so we can play some games! I appreciate the help, sorry we're newbs.

Having an Issue after moving my Hyperspin environment from a laptop using Windows 7 to a DELL PC running Windows 8.1. Hyperspin comes up fine with videos and everything but the controller board keys won't do anything. If I end-run around Hyperspin and use MAME directly or Daphne directly, then everything works fine. Controller is an IPAC4 setup, it's all wired right and everything, works great. So, based on the PC and Windows O/S change and this is the only thing broken, I think, something is wrong in a setting or lib that is keyboard related in Hyperspin. Any folks know what I need to upgrade to fix this??? Anyone have some source info on the problem? Thanks for y…

Reply here......... Hair removal facts Hair is composed of protein. Hair appearance can be a sign of one's age and health. Hair protects the skin and head against trauma and ultraviolet light. Hair insulates the skin against temperature changes and is a barrier to foreign objects and insects. Removing hair is almost always done for perceived cosmetic or social reasons. Certain hair-removal techniques can damage the skin and produce dark spots that may last a long time. Depilation is hair removal above the level of the pore (follicular opening). Epilation is the damaging of both the hair and the hair bulb below the level of the skin surface. What are the differen…

Hi everyone, I have read the Mr Do's step by step on how to compile mame with diff files to make the high score work. I keep looking around the mame site and i cant seem to find the Mame0146.diff files at all. I found the 147 diff files. I read a step by step that even showed the Mame0146u_1.diff, mame0146u_2.diff, and mame0146u_3.diff files but i cant seem to find those anywere. Can i use the mame0.147u_1 and mame0.147u_2 on my mame 1.46? Also i "Think" i was able to compile a mame 1.43 as a test but i never saw a "new" mame.exe once i am done with the compiling (using mamecompiler64) what do i need to copy to my main mame folder just the mame.exe that it should ma…

Hi folks, Got a very annoying problem i'm trying to fix. All of my system and game wheels are working great. Videos play correctly whenever I go into any system. Except one. I added an Atari ST wheel myself, wheel artwork, video snaps etc. Before each video plays when scrolling through the wheel, it plays about 2 seconds of static, then plays fine. The video files do not have this static at the beginning. At one time I did have a static video as my 'no video.mp4' file, but I have changed that to a rotating Hyperspin logo, which works correctly when there is no video found. I REALLY want to get rid of the static that plays before each video, just can't seem to find the …

Hi guys I'm contemplating adding newer style systems (n64/dreamcast/ps1) on my cabinet but I'm wondering if I can still use my xarcade controller w/ mame and older systems and use a wireless Logitech style controller for The newer ones? Reason being is obviously the analog stick controls etc. Makes it really hard to play with just the buttons almost not worth it, but love a lot Of those old games. Is it possible to do this? I'm guessing xpadder to set it up?? Hopefully I don't have to switch manually and I can just have the emulator automatically use the wireless controllers? Cheers!
