Can someone please help me? I am new to the community and cannot find any current information on how to set my backgrounds up for my arcade system. It seems as i have tried to do what is suggested for set up, but all of the posts i have read are 2-3 years old. I have 5 versions of Mame on my computer, and im not sure which 1 to use for my backgrounds on Space Invaders and Asteroids Deluxe. Do i put the zip files I downloaded from Mr Do's arcade in Mame, Rocketlauncher, artwork, bezels or Backgrounds? Im totally confused, can anyone please help me! Thanks!

I am fairly new to Hyperspin and currently rebuilding my 3 year old arcade System. I am familiar with many aspects of the program itself but recently noticed a quirk in the behavior. As I was setting up the new system I often had to quit the game by using unconventional methods (Ctl/Alt/Del, task manager, etc). After I do that I noticed that when I restart Hyperspin it jumps right into the sub wheel that I was in when I quit the program. For example, if I was under "Arcade Console" Hyperspin would start with the arcade console menu. My question is: Is there a way to force Hypersin to ALWAYS start at the top level menu/wheel? Thank you!!

probably a topic thats been covered multiple times but i just cant find the answer... im trying to launch my Wii U games. i was getting errors in RL so i am now trying to launch them without RL. when i select a game it appears nothing happens, but ive figured out that Cemu does launch if i look in the details section of Task manager. the program does not show up on my computer though. Cemu works fine if i double click the EXE. does anyone know why this would happen? is it just my PC or is it hyperspin? the log seems fine. but ill add it anyway. HS launch.txt

Hello, The only download I can find for Nintendo DS Roms has them all numbered and they don't match the database. The Nintendo DS.xml file I have, has CRC info, but when I use Don's Tools to try and rename, it doesn't find a single match, not even for one file. I tried the fuzzy scan and that doesn't come up with any results, either. I can't find a good NDS rom set to download that is HyperSpin ready, so I don't really have a choice but to download what I'm downloading, but if I can't get them renamed, I've wasted a ton of bandwidth and time. It will take me days to download this set and I'm only about 10% complete but wanted to try to rename the file…

hi guys, I have a problem with the epsxe emulator. When I start the emulator, the display automatically turns on if desired. if I choose hyperspin the emulator and then the game remains off analog and I can not activate it with f5. epsxe shows it to the analogue on but this does not. an example of gran turismo 2 started on hyperspin can not be steered neither Dpad or joypad.

Okay this one is a little odd - is it possible to have HS running on two displays and the video for the game chosen to keep playing while the other display is used for playing the game? I guess technically one screen would be running MAME after selecting game while the other screen would still be showing video in HS... Thanks

First, I apologize that I wasn't able to find the answer to this basic question - I *did* search first before posting (but perhaps not well)... I have everything working great currently except controlling the HS UI while in the MAME wheel. I have the following setup: - Two players consisting of 6 buttons each. Controls are mapped using a J-Pac, so I'm not using any other translation software (such as joy2key). I have modified settings within the mame emulator, but I can't figure out how to modify the HS wheel controls. For instance, I'd like to map P1 B2 to pull up the favorites list. From what I've read, it's not a good idea to use the…

Hi, I have a problem. For some reason my "HyperSpin.exe" is missing, it doesn't show up in my antivirus quarantine section or anything. Normally it wouldn't be a problem, but the thing is that i'm using the 1.2 version, I know it's quite outdated but I've set everything up exactly how I liked a long time ago, and if I got a hold of the file I know it would solve my problem instantly, I'm really happy with my setup as it is. I've searched everywhere I could think of online, (and in a backup I had, too, also missing that file for some reason) and I've still haven't found it, is there a chance someone could send me just the "HyperSpin.exe" file, it would help me so much…

Hi all, I've had Retroarch setup for a week or so and have only just got round to actually playing some games. I loaded up Metal Gear Solid and decided to use the games in-built save facility rather than save states. All was working fine. Created a new game, played it for a few minutes and then saved it. Quit out using a joypad combination and had some lunch. About an hour or so later I launch the same game and the saves aren't appearing. If I look in C:\Hypersin there are two .mcr files: Metal Gear Solid.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.0.mcr and Metal Gear Solid.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.1.mcr I can't seem to find any .srm files anywhere (interestingly, about a minut…

Just set up Monkey Island series. Database is listed as per chronological order of release 1 Secret 2. MI2 3. Curse 4. Escape 5. Tales Shows up in Hyperspin as: 1. Escape 2. MI2 3. Tales 4. Curse 5. Secret I know there is a setting/workaround in RL to change this to force it to list in the order of the xml DB as I have done it for the Broken Sword series but have gone blank on where to find it/how to do it. Any tips to help jog my memory appreciated.

Hi to all, I have some troubles with MAME version 0.139, because can't run in PC (Hyperspin 1.4.0.0 with RocketLauncher 1.0.1.7 and HyperHQ 1.3.0.0) for some reason and I don't know how to fix that. I was looking the .ahk availables and I think that the problem is this, because MAME.ahk was created for versions .160. I hope that someone with knowledge about Autohotkey could create the MAME.ahk for 0.139 (and all neccesary archives) and share here in this thread. Im buildng a dual HDD with Hyperspin for PC and Android. I really need that MAME.ahk for MAME version 0.139, because if not, then will be neccesary duplicate the MAME media files and roms an…

Can I get some opinions on which system would be the best performing for a dedicated hyperspin PC build? I have a pre-built Dell with a I3 7300 (dual core) 3.9ghz with integrated Intel graphics, and a homebuilt I5 6600k (quad core) 3.5ghz base, 3.9ghz turbo with a Radeon 7850 (2gb). Thanks.
