New member here and hoping someone can help out/lead me in the right direction. I have everything setup the way I want for RocketLauncher and HyperSpin. The last piece I am trying to figure out is how to get the "Loading Start" and "Loading Complete" audio to play when I launch games. I checked the Media Fade folder and there are literally no mp3's in the folder. I have searched my whole hard-drive to make sure they weren't stashed somewhere else and I get no results. I have done numerous searches trying to find the mp3 files to download and have come up empty. Would someone be able to post the files so I can download them or point me to where I can get them from? Thank …

So, I upgraded the PC for my arcade cabinet. I had to also upgrade to windows 10. Now When I launch HyperSpin, it freaks out. It lags, the wheel just keeps spinning out of control. What is going on? What do I need to do to fix this? Will it work in Windows10?

Hi, I have looked everywhere, on the fora over here, at Rocketlaunch and elsewhere but up until now i haven't found a working solution. I am using Hyperspin 1.5.1 with Rocketlaunch 1.2.0.0, both the latest versions if i am correct, to launch MAME Roms. The roms start, this is working fine so far. I am using MAME 0.198, and as far i can see i have set all the things that i can find correctly as described in the fora and internet, like the plugin settings within mame.ini, enable the hiscore support within Hyperspin, etc. But it doesn't work... When launching outside Hyperspin/Rocketlauncher, using MAME itself or another front-end like GameEx hiscore saving wo…

So I am having trouble with my bezels for the majority of my consoles. They are not taking up the full screen. The width seems fine yet the height is short. My MAME bezels do however. Not what I am missing? Any ideas?

I dont know where to start. I was on here yesterday. Long story short I ordered a plug and play 2 player multicade pedestal with 2 steering wheels and track ball. I not knowing what i was ordering. My fault, but i got it and it doesn't work correctly. Im playing gaming system example: n64 or sega player 1 and player 2 buttons are different. Example nba Jam player 1 buttom 5 is pass, but player 2 button 5 is shoot. If that makes sense. Not sure why steering wheel only works for a handful of games. Cant play player 1 vs player 2 in driving games. Game sometime just goes black. On driving games that do work you turn the wheel right and the object goes left on the scr…

Hi all, bit of a noob question regarding system and software updates. Had an arcade cabinet built that's running Hyperspin on a Windows 10 (64 bit) PC. When I got it the guys said not to update windows etc as it could mess up the system. Cabinet is great and running well, just like things up to date. It's running on an unactivated version of Windows and I know there are updates available for that as well as the GPU (GeForce GT 1030). Looks like Iam running the latest versions of Hyperspin (1.5.1.0), Rocket Launcher (1.2.0.1) and Rocket Launcher UI (1.0.1.10). Other then the windows not being activated (which I am happy to do) is there actually any issue wit…

I bought a custom arcade pedestal built from someone on Ebay in Hyperspin with two steering wheels and trac ball. Huge MISTAKE. I was to trusting and got it shipped to me. It came damaged no guide to setup. All the usb ports all unplugged. Buttons for player 1 and player 2 don't have the same values. And steering wheel goes the wrong direction. I know nothing about this stuff. Does anyone know somebody I could pay to come fix it?

Hi all. I need to create a hotkey or something that will make the “enter” key hold down for say 4 or 5 seconds when pressed. I use enter for starting a game from the hyperspin menu. One of the guys on another thread figured that if you “hold” the game select game key down for a few seconds it eliminates the problem of the game sound videos being played in the background after a game loads. It also eliminates problems with led blinky, as sometimes when people are playing my cab they press the enter key multiple times, or waggle the joystick while selecting a game. This sends led blinky nuts and also creates the sound problem mentioned above. If you hold the ga…

Hi Guys, Just need some AHK help if possible I am sure this will be basic for most people here. I need 2 AHK scripts to do the following: script 1: When I press and hold button "x" this then presses and "holds down" button a + b + c for the duration of the hold of a. So a sleep command will not do here To put it in practice, neogeo king of fighters i hold down x to allow the abc function to change power for fighter or when i play ssfiv and use x to function as a LP+MP+HP to perform super move, the script will fulfill both potentially. script 2: When I press and hold "a" button down as a function key then press direction right it throws butt…

I’m new to hyper spin and to this forum and it seems to be a wealth of knowledge around. I have hyperspin setup and everything worked fine. I was playing Sega genesis games the other day. I got done and turned off my PC. Now, every time I try to select a game, it freezes. It lets me get through all the way through, and freezes at the “now loading” screen. I can see the wheel at the bottom right hand corner still spinning but it does so for as long as I let it before I force close the entire program. What could have changed to cause this?

Hi all. I’m just using mame and hyperspin with rocket launcher. The problem I’m having is if you press the launch game key (enter) and move the player one joystick around (mainly when the kids are playing) you get the game wheel sounds running in the background while playing a game. This is a known issue on hyperspin.... however, if you press and “hold down” the launch game key it stops any other unwanted key presses which cures this problem. I’m wondering is there a way to get rocket launcher to do a 2-3 second key press of the enter button? I’ve looked at the iPac utility and all it will do at best is create a macro that does multiple key presses rather than one lon…

Hi, quick one I hope.. can someone please tell me where the 'theme' files are for the hyperspin main menu wheel? I can find the location of all the system themes, but not the one for the main wheel itself. With the theme I currently have (and am otherwise happy with) , an image appears on every wheel selection at the bottom, like a page footer.... see pic. I just want to replace (or remove) that footer image as it has some control instructions on it that are no longer valid for my system. cheers

I was recently turned on to HS and decided to give it a try. I am migrating from a Mala cabinet paired with an Ultra-Stik 360. It is a single joystick cabinet. I paired the latest version of HSpin with the latest version of RocketLauncher. I was excited to see native support for UltraMap programming. Unfortunately I cannot find documentation that demonstrates how to use it with HSpin and RLauncher. Ultimarc's website has no documentation for this. My questions: a) The question that confuses me the most is why Joy2Key is a necessity on most installs I read about. Is there a particular reason why native joystick control is not working in HS? If I program the…

Hello, A newbie here concerning Bezels. Whenever I enable Bezels on any of my systems, the Bezels never appear instantly as soon as a game loads up, it always has a delay of about 5 seconds 'til it appears. I've looked through all the settings but I can't find anything that might give me the option to make it 'Instant' I have included a small video of how it appears. Many thanks. Vid.mp4

Hi all, I'm looking to sell my N64 and Xbox and put everything onto my laptop instead. I'm looking to play games in my living room and had a couple questions on what anyone would recommend on the best way to go about this. Basically, how would you set this up if it were you? 1. I have a new laptop and a few older laptops. Which should I play off of? I only use my new laptop to travel everywhere while I don't use the older ones at all. Should I install the emulator on a USB stick? How big should this be? Should I save the Emulators on a different stick? What size would be recommended? 2. Where can I find a bulk of roms instead of having to search one by one?…

Hi, sorry if this has been asked before but I've searched the forums and haven't found a solution so here goes: I'm trying to make a custom xml database for psx as some of the games aren't listed in the most recent database update(PAL versions of the point blank trilogy for example). However, when I try to generate a new database in RocketLauncher UI it doesn't detect a number of the games in the my roms folder. Adding the entry to the xml manually doesn't work either as the new entry appears in the newly generated list but the rom isn't found when I run the audit. The file names match, the roms are all in the same folder and the proper format, and I have the neccesa…

Hi, hoping someone can help, feel free to ask for whatever other info you may need to diagnose the issue. I have a bartop cabinet I bought off someone that i've had to get working as it was a right mess, most things seem good now due to trial and error but Mame seems to take a good 15 seconds to start a game which is very frustrating, is there something easy to fix this? any other thread i've seen on this does not seem relevant.

As described the wheel moves up, and plays the theme for a different game, when I launch a game. Using joytokey with an Ultrastik and have tried all sort of thresholds levels and settings in joytokey to no avail. I've disabled the trackball, spinner and joysticks in HyperHQ and all the usual fixes. Pretty sure it was working fine before I added the Ultrastik and joytokey to my setup. Any suggestions? I've trawled the net and can't find any answers. Any help much appreciated! Pulling my hair out.

My hyperspin setup is on an external HD, and I had been connecting that to my Windows 7 laptop for work, until work found out about it and said "no no". So I bought a laptop which came with Windows 10. When I first plugged it in, everything was working fine for the standalone emulators I tested. That felt nice. I thought I would be completed soon, and went on to install the emulators such as Project 64, PCSX2, and Dolphin. My Xpadder configuration carried over just fine. Games were launching, on the old laptop, and on the new Windows 10 laptop. After I thought I had completed my migration, I sat down to enjoy the fruits of my labors. However, I am now unable …

Hi, just wondering which set to use for Sharp X68000 to match the Hyperspin xml file. I have a set that has over 3,000 files and 99% of the names are different than the ones used in the Hyperspin xml file, meaning I can't get hardly any of the video snaps, logos, etc to work. Not asking for roms, just wondering which set I should be looking for, as in naming convention like Good Tools, Tosec, etc. Thanks
