I have a 2 player cabinet I'm building that has a single trackball (Ultimarc optipac interface) and two joysticks (Ultimarc ipac 4). It seems like a lot of folks are having trackball issues but this one is a bit different - hoping someone has a suggestion as gamers keep wanting to use the big glowing trackball in the middle of the panel. I've got the trackball configured and it works as a mouse in Windows. When I use it in HyperSpin, though, it has very odd behavior. Under some threshold of movement nothing happens. Above that the wheel starts spinning and won't stop until I roll the trackball back - so it's kind of "roll up to start spinning wildly, roll back to stop…

Stupid question but I've added capcom play system no issues, logo shows up in rocketlauncher... But How do you write capcom 2+3 in hq? I tried capcom play system 2, no dice logo doesn't show up in rocketlauncher system list like capcom play system. Also tried capcom play system ll (2 L's) that did get the logo to show up either. Every other system I've added the logo has shown up upon HQ setup.

Hi All, firstly i'm a complete noob to this so if this is a silly question i do apologise for that. so i have followed simply austin's guides in installing hyperspin and rocket launcher and have got MAME and N64 working but i have an issue with Sega Genesis. after selecting the game i wish to play from within hyperspin i get about a 20 second delay and then a black screen with an error. There was a error waiting for the window "". Please check you have the correct version emulator installed for this module. followed any notes in the module and have the emulator working outside your frontend first. also turn off fade to see if you are hiding your problem. …

Cant figure out what I'm doing wrong. Been going through the Simply Austin tutorial and everything works except the Dolphin screen is windowed as seen in the attached picture. I have tried various things in the Dolphin Graphics area. Use Fullscreen doesn't do anything, and when I reopen Dolphin it is unchecked. Tried changing the backend between OpenGL and Direct X 11.

Any chance someone can post a database that is matched to the ROM sets currently available for the Atari 2600? I have yet to find one that matches the database that comes with Hyperspin and would prefer not to mess around with the tool application if I don't have to. For some reason this has proven to be the most difficult console to configure. Thanks in advance! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

RL v1.1.1.1 HS 1.4.16 MAME .178 As you can see, I am new to HS, but not MAME. When I try to launch a MAME game, nothing happens. I have included the logs. They don't say anything tho. If I grab the path from the logs and run it via CMD line, it works. I can also run from MAME itself. Also, and I don't know if related, if I launch RocketLauncher.exe it asks to pick a game to test, my NES is in there, but not MAME. Log File EDIT: I turned on Debug for RocketLauncher. Here is the log file. It looks like it is getting it. Thanks!

Hello HyperSpinners! This is my first post here, so bear with me. Not sure if this has been fixed yet, or not, but I found a relatively painless way to get problematic video snaps to play properly (with both sound AND video) in Hyperspin. In short, what I did was use VLC to convert my .MP4 snaps to FLV, and this makes them play correctly. Here is what I did, in detail. Keep in mind I'm on a linux machine, so for windows users results may vary: Open up VLC media player. Click the "media" menu button, select convert/save. In the window that pops up, click the add button, and browse to one of the affected .MP4's. Bottom of the "open media" window, click the tiny arrow, n…

Hi. Not sure if I'm the right place for this but.. I've got the default red joystick on my mame menu, and "next system" text, but I want the blue one and want it to say next game, previous game etc and nudge left and right as the red one doesn't. In the artwork settings in hyper hq I've turned off use default for artwork A and then the blue joystick appears, but the text is in I think Spanish?? Can anyone help me hear please?

Hi, I'm new to the website and just having a hard time finding my way around. I went through Simply Austin's tutorials on youtube, which turned me onto Hyperspin. It's really an awesome front end. I started setting up a cabinet with a crt monitor, which is 4:3 aspect ratio and all the themes I downloaded from Austin's tutorials are in 16:9 ratio, but I really like them. I joined this website to see what was available and I can't seem to find many system themes or main menu themes. For example, I can't find 1 NES theme in 4:3, which I thought was the normal aspect ratio Hyperspin is based on and thought there would be lots. I must just not know how to get around t…

Hey Guys I was hoping you help diagnose a problem I am having with my Arcade style controls in in hyper spin. In short, joysticks and buttons work fine in games, very buggy in hyper spin. Syptoms: -hard to control wheel spins in Mame, skips several games at a time on the wheel from one push of the stick, - Uncontrolled wheel spins in certain systems like SNES. - Temporary loss of control during any theme animation for games ( this is when the game play video fades in) - Complete loss of control during any game themes downloaded from Hyperspin.fe (I removed these and the problem went away) - Complete loss of control during some system splash page animatio…

I was wondering how this could be performed. For instance, if I launch Blitz2k directly through mameuifx64.exe, the graphic settings of D3D are maintained and the game looks great. If I launch the same game through Hyperspin, the game does not appear to use D3D but rather some other graphic setting with scanline effects. I thought hyperspin is only a front end and cannot alter game settings. I see there is a mame.ini file under rocketl;auncher\modules\mame\ but this had no settings for 3D3. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi guys, I don't speak english so well. Anyway, I need help. The problem is that I have a romset of Atari 2600 with a system name like this, (example with pacman rom) "Pac-Man (1982) (Atari).bin", but the name system for Hyperspin is like this: "Pac-Man (Atari) (USA)". that is to say, "hyperspin" uses only name and country for the file names, and the romset that i have, and that the usual TOSEC name system comes with name, year, version, and so on. Due to this difference Hyperspin cannot find the roms. How I could rename my romsets (not one by one ) for the hyperspin name system, or at least, at where i could find the romsets with the correct names? I have be…

Hi! i've finished to download the dull MAME set (CHD included) and now i'm trying to set the various "CLASSIC" system into hyperspin. (i set all this system to point in the the same rom folder) Started with Konami Classic i realized that there'arent any Themes (or Video) of that system in the "Konami Classic" Folder on the FTP, but the MAME folder it's full of them! it's possible to set a custom media folder for this system? so the theme folder and the video folder will point to a standard MAME folder ... i've searched for it but with no succes... Any ideas? PS Sorry for eventually grammatical error EDIT: for Video i found the solution, just edit the .ini …

Hi guys, I am trying to sort out this arcade new age version of Pacman I have but cannot seem to redefine keys in any of its menus?!. Seems weird. I have made a standup machine with an iPac 2 connected so its reading as a keyboard. Default is the arrows for Player 1 which is good but I cant reassign the game to the keys that I have for Enter / Escape etc so cannot venture into or out of the game without pulling the keyboard out the drawer... Thanks

Hi - as per the title... If I boot hyperspin, then Mame, then say Kung fu master. It is very bright so I press the weird Tilde key (next to the "1) and it opens up a slider/scroll bar at the bottom overlayed on top of the game.. I can arrow up and down through various options which all effect the image in someway (is this hlsl?). Anyway, if I get it right then exit - when I restart its back to the way it was.. All settings lost... however, all key changes etc save fine. Any thoughts? thank you David

I tried 7z and regular unzipped with no success any help would be appreciated Thanks, Vince

my arcade cabinet (hardware part) has 2x6 player buttons, and player1 start button, player2 start button and a "coin" button. currently my hyperspin setup is more or less done with mame and a few other consoles. since hyperspin functions on mainly a esc/enter and most emulators need the esc/enter button, is there anyway i can get by without adding additional buttons on the hardware side. heres what i have tried. i've tried making p1 start & coin button to become esc. in mame/hyperHQ i can use it as per norm but am unsure how to do so in retroarch/pcsx2. when i try holding down coin button to function as "esc", it works decently but i cant get out of the mame game …

Hi HS Forum, I'm currently running Hyperspin 1.3.3 with the 1.4 upgrade patch installed. My Hyperspin has been setup and configured and is functioning fine. The issue I have is with the Mature Games genre not appearing in genre wheel. The Mature Games.xml was not included by default in the 1.3.3 package. I've downloaded the Mature Games.xml from the Hyperlist URL (http://hyperlist.hyperspin-fe.com/genrexml.php?system=263) and have copied this xml file to the Hyperspin\Databases\MAME folder. I've also made sure that the Hyperspin\Media\MAME\Images\Genre\Wheel folder contains the Mature Games.png image. Is there anything else I need to do to make the Mature Games genre …
