Ever since I upgraded to 1.5.1 I'm having a strange issue. On my main menu wheel set, I have three wheels that aren't being displayed. Instead, only text shows. They are HyperSearch, Playstation 1, and Game Cube. Now here's the strange part. When I enter one of those wheels then exit, the proper wheel image shows up, but only once I enter then exit. I have over 100 systems installed and it's just these three that do it and they do it consistently, too. Any suggestions would be more than welcome and appreciated. Thanks, --J

Trying to get started with HyperSpin on a new fully updated windows 10 install... which of course didn't work at all due to the windows 10 update/HS bugs resolved in 1.5.1. Now hyperhq launches (very slow start for some reason) and hyperspin launches (Win 7 compat, run as admin on both). Woot! I can press a key to skip the intro video annnnnddd... that is the end of anything from the keyboard responding, I have to hit ctrl+alt+del and end task hyperspin (alt+f4 might work, haven't tried). I can alt+tab off and back on and it makes no difference. I am able to map controls in hyperhq, the ini files update and list codes next to keys when I change something but this seems to…

It was working fine right before the update. Now it won't start at all. Running as admin isn't helping either. RocketLauncher works.

I have a weird problem... For whatever reason, Mame has started requiring two presses of ESC to close. This is fine if I was launching direct from RL all the time. I'd just press ESC twice and it wouldn't matter. But I use HyperSpin and need it to close on just one press of ESC. I have my UI Cancel button (closest thing to an exit button) set to ESC in Mame and I have my exit emulator key in RL set to ESC. I can exit all other emulators just fine with one press of the ESC key. I have no clue what to do here and really need some help with this one big time because Mame is played more than anything else on my cab. Right now, only one game can b…

I'm having a problem getting Mame to save hi files. I'm trying to get HiToText working, but have failed miserably. I got a high score in Galaga, entered my initials, and then exited out of the program (launched via RL) by pressing esc which is my exit emulator key. The hi file wasn't created and the next time I loaded Galaga my score wasn't displayed, just the default scores. So I can't test and don't know if it is working because I can't get Mame launched via RL to save high scores. What can I do about this? Also, not in this guide, but in other instructions, I see where I need to edit hyperlaunch.ahk, for some exit wait command o…

Sorry if I am repeating a question already asked, but has anyone built their own USB Controller from an arduino MIcro? only reason I ask is, I've recently finished my cabinet and I'mm set up with an original xbox, but, I want to put my hyperspin machine in the cab instead, i already have the controllers etc wired on the micro for the original xbox but they aren't recognised in windows. any ideas or can someone point me in the right direction, google has yielded a few dead ends so far

Hi, I have HyperSearch set up as a wheel and I'm able to search for games fine, but when I try to run one from the search, I get a Rom not found, no valid rom extensions error message. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, --J

I've downloaded pretty much all the Mame themes I can find but for whatever reason, about half of them just simply don't load. Others load fine. I have animate out/reload both checked in HyperHQ and I'm sure the themes are "good" and placed properly. It's just that a lot of them don't load when I'm on the wheel. I've tried a few different Mame databases, too. I don't know where else to look?? Thanks, --J

I have a dozen+ systems in my HS setup, but 90% of the time, launching a MAME game results in the game launching but the frontend sounds can be heard running in the background, with the other 10% loading normally and HS losing focus like it should. None of the other systems exhibit this problem, only MAME. At first I thought that it was an issue with bezels (my MAME games are the only ones with bezels) slowing down loading time and breaking RocketLauncher/HS's obscure magicks, so I moved bezels out of their folder and tried again but the problem persisted. I've tried different MAME versions and launching without themes/bezels with no luck. The maddening part is it's just …

So I have hyperspin 1.4 and I have it going now, and it all works on mame (only one I've set up, at least in part).... Except when I spin the wheel backwards (only backwards) through the alphabet of games and hit "vs raid on bungeling bay". When it hits that game it stops, gets stuck on it, n I either have to play it, or back out of mame. Now when I go back in- black screen n stuck there. Stays that way til I close the program through the tray. And also stays that way when I go into mame unless I do the following- rename the mame media folder to hide it from hyperspin, it allowes me into mame again, n I can scroll, albeit no art. So with that I'm assuming I hav…

Hey Everyone! Having an issue using my trackball in HS. I've created the ini file in my MAME folder and changed the mouse, lightgun, multimouse settings to 1. I linked this ini in RocketLauncher, everything seems fine. It's not until I enable the trackball in HS that the joysticks become unresponsive and I can't even properly exit HS. Any suggestions here? P.S. Also having issues getting Don's tools to identify my roms and say "yes" on the game list. Bonus points to whoever can figure this issue out too. Thanks!

Hey, I am very new to the Hyperspin community, I have recently acquired Hyperspin, and have gotten it working with the exception of the controllers. I have xpadder(Have no clue how to use it) and trying to map the controllers to use hyperspin, as well as for each emulator. Can anyone assist or walk me through the process. Xpadder asks to set up a profile, you can even load them but I don't know how and then how to get that to correlate to hyperspin. Any assistance would be great, thank you :-)

I'm having a major problem with HyperSpin. First, sometimes Mame games won't exit. I can go into a game from HS and exit and sometimes it will work and sometimes it won't. Also, now once I start HyperSpin it will "HyperSpin" the games down, scrolling down down down even without any input from any of the joysticks or gamepads or keyboard. I can press "up" on a gamepad/joystick/keyboard and it will register and allow me to go up, but as soon as I let off the up button, it starts scrolling down uncontrollably again. This is without any delay and I'm not talking about the normal scrolling that happens if you don't press a button for a while, although it does scro…

On my arcade cabinet, I don’t have enough buttons for exiting games so I have a button combination set. When I press 1 and X at the same time, my mame game exits and I’m returned to the Hyperspin wheel, just as I expected. Strangely, though, when I press 1 and 2 at the same time, I’m also kicked from the game and sent back to the Hyperspin wheel. Where could this setting be coming from? It’s really annoying because 1 and 2 are my player 1 and 2 start buttons so it’s really easy to hit them both at the same time in-game. It’s worth noting that if I open mame directly from Windows, it works as expected I only have the problem when using HyperLauncher…

I was working on my setup last night. Making changes, adding systems and other misc configuration work. When I exited RocketLauncher and went back in I am now only showing 58 out of the 95 systems that I originally had as emulated systems. My question is what happened? Did I delete a file? Is my database corrupt? I don't recall actually deleting any files but I did make some emulator changes in HyperHQ, for a lot of my setup I had to change the path to where the emulators point too. They were listed wrong in HyperHQ. The other thing I have noticed besides having half of my emulated systems being deleted is my hyperspin wheel is set to a background called …

When using HyperHQ, is there a way to switch controls around for the 'horizontal' wheel setting? When the wheel is horizontal, I feel like I need to press left or right to cycle through the wheel but it's still up and down. Is there any way to change this?

I have a problem I hope someone can help me with. When I press enter to launch a game, nothing happens for about 10 seconds. It doesn't matter which system I'm on or which emulator it's using. After about 10 seconds, finally, the fade in screen will come up and it will start launching the game. I want it to do "something" immediately after I press enter, though, because other people using my cabinet think it's broken and I see them press the enter key over and over and over again, thinking something is hung up or not working, when all they have to do is wait 10 seconds. I just think 10 seconds is way too long to have to wait before something starts happe…

Hi there, I just started putting together my first MAME setup about two weeks ago. I've followed videos and forums on setting everything up. I currently have MAME .161 as the only emulator, Rocket Launcher 1.4 upgraded from 1.3 as the engine, and Hyperspin as the front end. I am waiting on shipping of an external hard drive before downloading a full rom set(not enough space on internal, so just to get things set up I downloaded 3 individual games. All games boot 100% from rocket launcher. The games also show up properly on Hyperspin when I configure to show only available games. But when I go to start them in hyperspin I get this error code: C…
