Hello, I have one game in PC launcher that's giving me a bit of trouble (War Thunder). It launches fine (a launch window of the game comes up to play), the game starts but the RocketLauncher screen comes back. I have to alt+tab to bring the game back to the 'active' screen. Is there a setting somewhere in the RL PC launcher config window to prevent this? thomas

Hey Guys **SOLVED*** So I was playing my HS setup today and noticed in gamecube, many preview videos of the games flash on and off and show grey verbal lines so the game can not been seen?

Hyperspin was working great until recently. It appears that when I launch it it will show up on the taskbar and hang indefinitely. https://gyazo.com/5d1b448baf896659bc72121b859fc8a3 https://gyazo.com/ca43ae3dacec00f22f7d7ca656e4e2ae https://gyazo.com/af10b40a5b75eaf90ee91a42d41fa77c Any idea why it would be doing this? It worked fine earlier, then I unpacked some Videosnaps into one of my MAME emulators video folders, and it stopped working. I've since removed the video files and still no dice Edit: I'm an idiot, I was double clicking the backup of the EXE i placed on my desktop when I was updating it to 1.4... Disregard this thread and I apologize. I'll…

Hey Guys, So I have not been on the forums in some time… this weekend I fired up my HS setup and noticed that Rocketlauncher said I had to update modules. I did not update anything yet.. I am afraid. The last time I did the updates it messed every emulator. Just wondering if I should update? What benefits does it have? It has been at least 6 months +… maybe closer to a year since I updated. Also should I update any emulators? I am concerned about having to reconfigure things again... Thanks Jim

Hi everyone. First time post here. I have been slowly chipping away at a mame cabinet build, and have recently built a mock up control board to test joystick and buttons through an encoder. I have everything set up in HyperHQ and Rocketlauncher, and when I launch I can navigate hyperspin, but when I get to a game and launch it it gives me the error that keymapper is recognized but cannot find the joytokey.ini file. I know there are issues with this being related to the read only unset on the hyperspin folder, but I can't for the life of me unset it. I have tried the attrib -R +S in the CMD menu and everything. If anyone has experienced this and found a solution then …

For some reason, after setting up exodos, hyperspin is looking for the wrong name for the config folders? pics attached to explain. Is there a setting somewhere to use these short names instead?

So I have been watching the videos of Simply Austin and now I'm stuck and lost. For some reason in He MAME wheel I guess one would call it the ROMs work perfect. But now I setup NEO GEO wheel and I can't start a game. Sucks too I have videos and carts setup looks so nice but wish it would start a game. Is there anything I should check first ? I don't get any errors the screen just sites and plays the demo video. And here is the log file as one can see trying to start games a few times.

Guys i have been doing work for about 6 months on my Hyperspin drive,updating it etc.....I recently built a bartop arcade and placed my Hyperspin Drive into it......HS runs fine but when i play any game it seems locked to 30 FPS in all games? The PC is fine as it runs Mortal Kombat Komplete at full specs in 60 fps.... Does anyone know what can be the problem......all my Drivers seem to be fine Update: When using the Launchbox frontend, everything runs at 60 fps.....same emulator, same game......the only deifference is its fullscreen rather than using a bezel in HS

Hi guys. I am in the process of redoing my setup because of a failed drive. I am having trouble getting my joystick working in HyperSpin. I had it working before somehow, so I know it's possible. It is working in Windows and also working in the emulators. It is also recognized in HyperHQ no problem. When I launch HyperSpin my log shows "Error intializing joysticks". I will try to list my specs, but if more info is needed, I'll be happy to give it. Thanks! Windows 10 HyperSpin 1.4.16 Blissbox 4-play (joystick)

Hi All, I have been using HS flawlessly for a while except for one big issue.. when i leave my HS running after about 2-3 days idling on the menus it starts to get slower and slower to respond and input becomes very laggy, eventually after about 4 days of continuous idle in my arcade cabinet HS becomes unusable due to the slow performance and i am forced to reboot HS to fix the issues.. but inevitably it will happen again after a few days. I recently updated HS to latest 1.4 beta to try and fix the issue as i thought it might be a memory leak.. but this has not helped. Any tips?

Hello I have a home made arcade cabinet with hyperspin installed and one day randomly everytime I try to launch a game rom on any emulator I get an error message as follows (see attached screenshot): No Default_Emulator found in "D:\Arcade\RocketLauncher\Settings\D:\Arcade\Mame\roms\tripool.zip,CHD\Emulators.ini" Please set one so RocketLauncher knows what module to use. Looking at the error message, it looks to me like a problem with mapping relative paths (since D:\ appears twice). I can't find anywhere in RocketLauncherUI, HyperHQ, or any of the various .ini files to change this behavior. Any help would be very appreciated Chris

I am embarrassed to be asking for help, but I am totally lost. I can get Hyperspin to work just fine, but am not able to get a single ROM to work. I only have a handful, as I am currently trying to be legit about which games I get. I am guessing based on what little I am learning that I have the wrong version of the ROM for the MAME version I am running. What is the best way to handle something like this. I am pretty sure my ROMs aren't even all the same version, so I am stuck and getting frustrated. I would appreciate any help anyone can give me. Thanks Bigdogkc

I've delved into many support topics on this website and through reddit with no clear definitive answer to my issue. I have installed HS 1.4 and RLauncher and went through all the tutorials very rigorously. I can open and launch games inside RocketLauncherUI but I cannot get games to open inside of HyperSpin. I can select my way through the Console selection but when I get to game selection it simply won't load anything. I have no duplicate processes running. Every .exe has adminstrator access. How do?

I have an Ipac and I have an exit button plugged into 2A on the Ipac, which registers as Tab. When I go into HyperHQ when I try to set the exit key, and I hit my exit button (or Tab from the keyboard) it Tabs rather than registers as an exit key. Is there a way I can override this?
