I can launch my games in RL and through the emulator itself. However, when I try and launch the game in hyperspin itself, nothing happens. I have watched the install, emulator and adding roms tutorials more times than I can count. I am sure I am missing something very simple. Advice?

First off.. forgive me if this has been asked a million times before as I'm sure it has came up but anyways... are there any plans for a global favorites type of thing so you can have favorites from multiple systems? and are there any workarounds other than say... trying to merge wheels (especially ones that can be run with the same emulator) using alternative emulators?

Hi, I'm experimenting a very strange issue using hyperspin. When hyperspin plays demo videos (flv arcade games), the cpu temperature raises until the pc shutdown. If I run flv videos using vlc the temperature doesn't increase. Is it possible to change the default video player of hypersipin? Regards,

I have a strange issue right now. Last i knew i had a working installation of HyperSpin. Over the past few months i have been focusing on a LaunchBox implementation. I don't think I have done anything to my HyperSpin folder but when I checked it today, for some reason my sub wheels won't load. HyperSpin loads fine, but when I choose one of the consoles, Nintendo 64 for example, its wheel won't load. Just comes right back to the main menu wheel. It does it for any of the consoles I select. I have gone through every setting in HyperHQ and examined every INI file that appears relevant. Not sure whats going on. Anyone seen this before? Can't understand w…

sorry for the newbie question....but what in the lord's name is a rom extension? I ran all the rename tools and the system found many of my ROMS. However, they are still in red on the audit list in RL. I don't have the ROM extensions box filled in on the emulator section as I do not know what it is. I am on day 2 of set-up. I have put in some serious time...(8 hours) just to get here. Worked around issues quite a bit. I don't like to quit and I would love to see a working NES game. But I'm starting to think I bit off more than I can chew. Thanks Clayton

I realized a few Official HyperSpin systems doesn't have RocketLauncher module or emulator. For example: MiSFiT MAME, ALF TV Game, Acorn Atom, Casio Loopy, Konix Multi-System, VM Labs Nuon, etc. Should it be removed from the Official HyperSpin systems? Or should we ask to the RocketLauncher developer to create modules for this systems? I know @craiganderson created a lot of modules for this kind of systems. Maybe we could push RocketLauncher developers to include his modules? (If craig wants). @Avar what do you think about?

Ok, I've installed HyperSpin on my PC with no problems at all. But, now I'm installing it on a friend's PC and I'm having a major issue. I have tested every system in RocketLauncher with no problems, they all run fine. But, when I start HyperSpin, I choose a system (no problems), then when I choose a game (be it with start on my xbox360 controller, or on the keyboard, it will not load the game. And yes my path is correctly set (g:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe) Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Oh, I used Simply Austin's video for installing HS and RL, I installed HS 1.33 full, then used the 1.4 update. And I installed RL 1.2 along with the RL Media Base …

Hey everyone, I'm trying to add the translated version of Mother 3 to my Gameboy Advance XML. I've opened the XML with Notepad++ and copied the format to a different game and renamed the name as what matches the rom file but it still won't show up in the library. Does the CRC have something to do with it? I am totally stumped and would love a bit of help.

Hi all i am new to all this and I have hit a bit of trouble. I had a hyperspin setup with sega genesis set up fine in RL all roms ran fine. I added to HLHQ and when I ran in hyperspin 1.4 it was fine. I then did the same with snes all fine in RL but when I go to select snes it just reloads the system menu and doesn't go to the roms. I did a fresh install of HS incase it was the snes that was the issue and it's now reversed snes fine and genesis now doing the same. I even tried added nes but that also just loops the the system menu screen. Please any advice would be great also anything I need to give you all let me know. Sorry I'm a noob at this and I have see…

Hello, I am a new user as of yesterday. Forgive me if I missed something stupid, but I watched all the tutorials from this site and browsed the forums. I tried everything but no go. My issue is I cant get any game to show up in HS. I can launch through RLUI but not through HS. When I click on NES or MAME (the only 2 I setup) in the wheels, it "tries" to open MAME or NES but just goes back to the systems menu again. If I click on a system I HAVE NOT setup, it views the games!! why? something must be wrong setup in RLUI? Here is my setup and everything to answer any basic questions: * On local C drive I have a HyperSpin folder and a separate Roc…

I am using an external screen (Sony HW40ES projector) connected to a USB port on my laptop. Running Windows 10, HS & Rocketlauncher. Use mirror mode so that I can use the big screen to play games. Seems to work fine. Problem is, it doesn't work for some particular emulators - for example, the NES emulator (which in my setup uses Retroarch with the Nestopia core). When I load an NES game via HS, the loading screen appears on both screens fine, but then the external screen goes blank and the game only appears on the laptop screen - with the external screen then returning to the HS menu. When I exit the game, both screens return to the HS menu again. Any help h…

Hello all. Hopefully, for the final time, I beg assistance. Spent the last few months setting up what I wanted on Hyperspin and finally just doing random odds and sods now where I have to design from scratch without any tutorials or packs. I cannot see I need emulators for this last primitive batch thus no need for Rocketlauncher I think. In most cases they are one lone game and their .exe's. I've set up wheels through HQ, im using Hyperom to create a wheel database XML even thought theyre not really roms as such. All is labelled identically. I was following this in a romless PC game method which is working for me but elsewhere its not succeeding.…

Hi! Can someone please point me right here? If i launch games from the Retroarch app (on Nvidia Shield, Android), it correctly loads my Nvidia Shield Controller autoconfig, and all is fine across all cores/emulators and games. BUT, when I launch the same games from my Hyperspin (which ofc uses retroarch), retroarch launches game with Android Controller config, which ofc is not what I want. In what settings/config file can i force retroarch (launched through Hyperspin) to always use the Shield Controller autoconfig?

Hey guys! I got a Tankstick today and it's working great, minus one issue. Player two will not work on the second player controls. I have them mapped to use the second player, but whenever it is the 2p turn, the controls only work on the 1p side. Clearly I've missed something! Anyone have an idea?

Hey guys, I am brand new to posting on this forum but I recently bought a custom hyperspin 2 player cabinet, and ive had a couple issues that I cant seem to figure out. 1. If I open hyperspin and start playing right away, everything works fine. But If I open and leave it on for 10-20 minutes as you can see in the video, it becomes unresponsive to anything. I have to forcequit and open again. 2. As soon as I open hyperspin to run, all of my fans automatically kick in to overdrive including my 850 watt corsair power supply it would seem that my computer is definitely powerful enough to run this with ease. I put pictures of #s before opening HS and #s…

I have an issue that I am having difficulty explaining. MY setup was designed as a cabinet with swappable control panels (CPs). My CPs are a X-Arcade Tankstick and a custom CP with a flight stick for tron, two zippys, two spinners and a U360. I was running HS on my i7 running Win 7 pro, with HS installed on the portable USB drive and set up to run MAME 168 only (so far) with the full ROM set. I was have two major problems with the setup: (1) sometimes when I select a game in MAME, the game would not start. I would hear the vocal game description and button description from the LEDBlinky routine, but the game would not start. The sequence would just repeat over and o…

I was able to set everything up rotated clockwise. The only thing I cant seem to rotate is the wheel info when in a system menu. Press start, etc are all the original orientation. Anyone know how to rotate these to the right?

Hello there! I got into the emulation scene a few months ago and into hyperspin two weeks ago so I'm quite stumped here. Here's the thing, I'm currently working on my Nintendo DS wheel. I still need the video snaps and the box artwork but I want to fix my current issue before moving on. I have my game list and most of the game logos, there's just one that won't show up. It's the Phoenix Wright - Ace Attorney - Justice for All logo that won't show up on my wheel. Every other logo is there except for that one. I double and tripled checked that the name was axactly the same on RocketLauncher, the XML file, the logo image and the 7z file. I downloaded another png logo im…

Hi there! While running any Dreamcast Games, I get (on all games) an error message about the imgreader_win32.dll plugin... something like : "unhandled exception while initing image reader" This happens only in Hyperspin... if I use nullDC emulator alone, all Dreamcast games works perfectly. Anyone has any ideas? Thanks!

Howdy! ive been following simply austins tutorial as best I can. I am now supposed to rename the dxwnd file in the module extension folder... but I don't have one! There is one in the rocket launcher dir. I checked the download of HS 1.33 and there isn't a module extension folder in it either. In the Simply Austin video installing HS and RL he does not have a module extension folder, but in the next video (mame part 1) there is now a module extension folder (amongst other new files/folders). Obviously I missed something. Any suggestions? Thanks!

So I have configured hyperspin and joytokey. Initially I have no issues with these 2 and my controls work fine with the jpac. However recently, joytokey seems to auto close the moment I select a game within HyperSpin. When I open hyperspin, joytokey is active and minimized. However whenever i select a game from hyperspin, joytokey auto switches off. this happens whether it is mame, sega, nintendo or any console. Any type of help is welcomed.
