Hi, new to the whole setup, Sorry if this is the wrong place to post. I am using rocket launcher with retroarch 1.60. I have a paid copy of both xpadder and joy2key piece in the utilities/joy2key and utilities/xpadder directory, and the RL path is set to them in the UI settings. I can create and edit profiles for each of my systems, and they work provided that I live either xpadder or joy2key open. Rocket launcher will not switch profiles or launch either software if they are closed. I looked through my log and I don't see any mention of xpadder or joy2key when I launch the game. The module says its version 1.36, but that is the most recent I could find.…

Sorted out most of HyperSpin I think, well, the basic parts anyways. Using it with RetroArch for most emulators and have a few systems added (NES, SNES, N64, MAME). Still having a few minor probs I'm hoping someone could answer... 1) When I exit a game, it seems to take me to RetroArch, not HyperSpin. 2) I'm testing now with a PS3 controller via USB, since my cabinet is not built yet. when I go into HyperSpin, the controller doesn't work. I use the keyboard to launch a game, and when I come out of the game the controller now works in HyperSpin, though no matter how I setup the mapping, I can't seem to use the PS3 controller to start/execute anything. 3…

I'm having a really annoying issue I just can't figure out. I have my trackball setup to spin through system wheels and then my buttons wired to my u360 joysticks to advance through the wheels and select games. I have 3 systems so far, MAME, SNES, AND NES. Everything works great for MAME and SNES when selecting and backing out of wheels using button 1 and 2, but for some strange reason it is really difficult getting the joystick buttons to advance only when trying to select the NES system. I have to button mash for a good 10 or 30 seconds until it finally advances to the games. Sometimes I need to back out with the keyboard and go back in to get it to work. Afte…

I am not sure if anyone has run across this issue, but I wanted to use a horizontal layout for my racing cabinet. It just seemed more logical to go side to side when navigating games with steering wheel. than up and down. Anyway, the spinner works just fine in the normal wheel style layout, but when I change it to pin or horizontal it doesn't. Not sure if this is a bug or if I am missing something.

Still (slowly) playing around with HyperSpin. Was playing with LaunchBox as well, but through forum chats, finding that I may be out of luck with a lot of the themes because designed for 16:9 and don't resize well for 4:3. I went for a 4:3 Samsung 204B 1600x1200 5ms monitor... mainly because was cheaper and since 99% of the games I have are 4:3 I figured I'd go that route... didn't think about themes. How's HyperSpin for 4:3? Problem with LB is I can't test any out without buying a membership, and the theme downloads often don't mention if they work 4:3 or not so, hate to pay and not like anything available. I believe it's the same for HS though still very …

Ok, so I have added like 10 PC games to my HyperSpin, but I dont how to make media packs for them, and I couldnt find any online. Like, I have the PC versions of Final Fantasy V, VII, IX, X/X2 HD Remaster... But I have no clue on how to make the wheel logos, or the artwork, or theme, or video snaps for them. Yes they do run through RL and HS, just want to make them look pretty. Are there any tutorials on how to do this? Thank you for your help.

Hey guys, just looking for the best way to keep things organized. I have a 1TB drive... was thinking of making a partition, maybe 60GB for Win10/Hyperspin then have the other partition labelled GAMES and no folder with sub-folders, just the drive with a folder for each system. That way if I need to format, I can just format the C:\ and not touch the games. Not sure if that's a good way to do it, or just 1 partition, and a folder named GAMES with sub folders for each system. Ideally I'd get an SSD for the software and games on the HDD... how much space would the OS/Hyperspin/Emulators take?

Hey guys... been playing with a RaspPi/RetroPie for a few months, fun but a bit more limited and just not the same as a cab so, decided to build a full cab and go PC based. Past few weeks I've been playing with LaunchBox, which works fine, but doesn't seem as flashy as HyperSpin, plus you need to pay for premium for features to unlock, and pay for BigBox for themes, etc... so before I commit any money I wanted to spend some time with HyperSpin and compare the two. Downloaded it last night, and for now, will be testing on my desktop PC which has better specs and a widescreen, but just easier to test with. Before I get started... is HyperSpin free? I see you …

I knew the option was there and I've heard people speak of it but I was a bit confused by the process and didn't even give it a shot... I also thought it would require me to move/copy my roms like I had to move or copy my media files.. which was another reason I never bothered but I didn't realize that all it would require me to do was to add the rom paths in RL. I just merged the xmls I wanted (PC games, Mame, NES, SNES, N64, PS1, PSP, Sega Model 2, Sammy Atomiswave, Genesis) and basically used my favorites.txt for each system as a guide so when I add the games under alternative emulators all I have to do is search for the games and add them... to make it less painf…

Anyone want to help a brother out? Turned on my cabinet tonight and the computer inside (which normally turns on) did nothing. I had to manually turn it on and got a bios screen. I didn't know what to do there and so exited out. Went to start windows normally and was able to get things started. The resolution on everything was all wrong. Tried to go into windows but it was very buggy. Can still get things going but something's obviously very messed up now. Anyone have any ideas here? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hey folks. Some help would be great. I have finished my Hyperspin setup but am now just trying to hide the windows 7 startup. I have hyperspin starting at bootup and I used Windows7bootupdater2 to give me a plain black screen at startup. However inbetween the black screen and Hyperspin startup I am still getting the blue windows 7 screen and then my windows desktop before Hyperspin starts up. Does anyone know how I can get the black screen instead of the blue windows 7 screen and get hyperspin to startup before my desktop appears. Thanks. Bruiser.

This error has recently started to come up when I try to start a game. Specifically, I'm trying to set up my Atari 5600 wheel in hyperspin. I'm using MAME/MESS emulator. RetroArch seems to be a complete failure anytime I try to set it up with an Atari System, and MAME throws me into a black screen of death. MAME/MESS emulator starts the loading process, and get's me to 100% loaded. But then it hangs and gives me an "Error waiting for the window "ahk_class MAME" to be come active" message.Can anyone offer any guidance or insight? Thank you for your help. A Google search suggests that this problem has existed with other persons, but no clear solution seems to have been arti…

Hello all! I recently tried my hand at installing Fix it Felix to my Mame wheel with mixed results. I got the game icon to show on the wheel and the intro video works as well. The game launches flawlessly when I launch it from RocketLauncherUI (I launched it successfully when going through the audit game window), but when I get to Hyperspin and click the wheel icon for the game it will not load. The error window mentions something about closely named files. I feel like I am overlooking something simple, any ideas what could be going on?

When you hold the arrow button or is your joystick to the left or the right this will activate the hyper spin search function however I've noticed on two systems and on the main menu when I hold the arrow button it will not bring up the letters this only happens on two systems, NES and SNES all of my other systems the search function will work. Is there a setting in hyper spin or in rocket launcher I need to set so that these two will also search?

All I want to do Is to launch one application using PCLauncher and that is a Jukebox I made an XML file. Called it it Jukebox since that is on my Hyperspin wheel . I set Up the Global Module Settings and Test it from RL and it launches The Jukebox Program. But when I gohyper spin and try and launch the juke box I get this error.........You have not set up Jukebox in RocketLauncherUI yet, So PClauncher does not know what EXE, Fade Title and /or Steam ID to watch forWhat Am I missing here?

Ok, so I downloaded some video snaps for the Atari 2600 (just to test it) from Emumovies... Now I'm wondering where you put them to get them to show up in HS. I tried G:\HyperSpin\Media\Atari 2600\Video\Adventure (USA).mp4... but nothing happens on the game select screen of HS. Any advice?
