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

We picked up a hard drive from a friend and when we start Hyperspin it seems it was set up for an Xbox controller. When it starts a screen pops up with Xbox controller instructions. Does anyone know how to get rid of it or where the options are within Hyperspin to remove this. Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone. Sorry for the noobish topic but I had a question about HyperHQ. I am going through Planet Geekdoms setup tutorials and he mentioned the HyperHQ would not have any settings in a fresh install. The install I download from the hypserspin website has preset up emulators and wheels already set up. Was this an upgrade to HyperHQ or is something weird going on? It prevents me from adding any systems into rocketlauncher. Thank you everyone for your help.

Hello I'm new to this so I have a hard drive that only works on my older laptop. I bought a new laptop to run the dolphin emulator and everything seems to open as far as hyperspin/hyperlaunch on both pc's but I can't open emulators or games from the new pc. The drive path is set to E: on both computers and everything is the same what am I missing? I installed directx on new laptop and both are running windows 10. Any help would be appreciative also please speak in stupid since I don't understand much of the abbreviations for things thanks.

Hi, I went to the trouble for registering to this site so that I could even try out "Hyperspin" 1.5.1 release - which greets me with the warning that there are many scams trying to sell hyperspin. Saying during the download process "TURN OFF YOUR ANTIVIRUS IF YOU HAVE TROUBLE INSTALLING" when the antivirus is the bog standard Windows 10 Defender and it detects 2 trojans immediately upon extracting your program that are core executables is not a valid solution. Sorry but I'm not going to trust some gaming website over windows defender, but you basically forced me to register to even find this out so I figured I should tell you about it. the trojans it d…

So, I switched from a xin mo to an IPac2 controller, but I'm having issues with Ipac2. the IPac2 is configured the same as the settings in Hyper HQ for player 1; When I load up hyperspin, the joysticks aren't responding when I try to select the wheel up or down. sometimes I'll get the quick search letter?(not sure what it's called) to quickly jump to games beginning with, say H. the keyboard works just fine when using it to navigate. If I run word or note pad, the corresponding letters are entered when i press a button or move the joysticks. Is there a setting I'm missing in the settup? do I need to tell rocketlauncher or hyper hq that I'm using an IPac2?

I haven't messed with HyperSpin for at least 1 year. Last time my family had kids over they didn't quite understand how to operate my MAME cabinet. One of the issues was the Pause button. They'd push it and get sent into Rocketlauncher's pause menu and couldn't back out. And I'd have to come upstairs (where the arcade is located) and fix it. no problem really. But this year, since my wife and I are hosting Thanksgiving, I thought I'd take out the Pause key option. I went into RL, Global Setting, then Controls, and erased the "P". I then noticed the "disable Hotkey" for the Pause button, so I checked it and put the P back in the field. I thought that would…

I understand Hyperspin isn't the most friendly with USB controllers and it requires unique configuration through the emulator, rocket launcher and joytokey. But I was wondering if anyone has utilized USB Gamecube or N64 controllers for their setup and point me in the direction of how they configured it properly. If there is already a tutorial on this I apologize I am new to the forum and while I have experience with emulators, not so much hyperspin and rocketlauncher. What I've experienced so far for my N64 controller is that it works just fine when the controller buttons are mapped in Project64, but button 10 (start button on N64 controller) is set to Exit the e…

I have installed HyperSpin and everything works great with the exception of navigating in the main menu. All I want is to use the joystick to move the wheel up and down (both for the Systems and the games within the systems), and then use the first button of that joystick to select a system/game, and have another button escape out from games to systems or systems out of HyperSpin. I've been searching these forums and YouTube videos for a couple days trying to figure it out. I'm using a Paradise Arcade Lono2 with run-of-the-mill lollipop joystick and regular concave pushbuttons attached to it. I've downloaded Xpadder, but can't find any tutorials of how t…

Good evening, I'm almost through my setup and I'm having an issue with the themes showing up on the wheel for MAME. It's putting the game names in the default font rather than the artwork from the theme. See screenshots for what I'm seeing and my Media folder setup. I've had this working before, but I'm doing a fresh install and it's suddenly kicking my ass. Am I missing where I tell HyperSpin where to look for this artwork/theme? Thanks for any help!

I know I said I wasn't going to do so due to space constraints but recently I was able to get my hands on a larger flash drive so no longer had any reservations about using it. After having gone through the installation and setup tutorials by AV TV on youtube, I'm still unclear as to how I'm supposed to actually use RocketLauncher. Running RocketLauncher.exe simply opens up a window that looks exactly the same as HyperLaunch.exe, and the RocketLauncherUI.exe seems to be only for settings. Do I simply run HyperSpin.exe as normal?

Hello, I use HS with RL and when HS start, it keeps on the background and joysticks (configured with xpadder) don't work. To resolve this problem, as I didn't find another real solution (so this topic), I need to click once with the mouse, and then everything works well. Could you help me finding a real solution ? Thank you !!!

Before anyone mentions it, I don't want RocketLauncher. I also understand and acknowledge that I am using an older and no longer supported version of HyperSpin. I did so on purpose because It's super tiny, I have limited space to work with, and doesn't contain the unnecessarily complicated set up that RL did. I did try RL. Was never able to actually see any improvement with it over HyperLaunch. In fact, I didn't notice any changes at all and it took up too much room. I only have 30 gigs on my flash drive to work with and I need all the space I can get for my arcade set up. (I have my own personal reasons for using a 32 gig flash drive) If I came off as arrogan…
