I would like to use wheel collections that span many systems such as Metalzoic's GnGnG collection. Is there a guide on how to best accomplish this with Retroarch? Some things I'm stuck on.... *Do i need to create my own Module? Whats the best approach? *Can i use an existing module/ahk such as Gigapigs? How do i edit the .ahk? *How to setup each game to use a system specific config file rather than the default retroarch.cfg? I have had some good and bad progress on this and figured I should just ask and see what you guys may have come up with.

I have everything set up, and i'm using the MAME 172 no Nag, Forced direct input version .. What i would like to do, is use one button on my control panel for Pause, but also, if held down for a few seconds, for it to bring up the MAME master volume control.. I've tried sorting this out via Rocketlauncher and JoytoKey, have made the profile with:- "Switch based on press-duration" selected for the button ... but it just does not work, the Pause works fine, but held down. the button does not acknowledge the ` key for the mame volume ... . Am i floggin' a dead horse. ...does it simply not work with MAME? or do i need to sort it out another way somehow

Let me start by saying I am a NOOB. I'm setting up an old Core 2 Duo to act as a game base for my kids (and so i can get rid of the wall af cartridges that I have now...). Ok, nuff there. I have a fairly complete rom set for SNES and genesis. However, the only xml file that I can find is missing a bunch of them. Like over a thousand for SNES alone. Is there a way to create an XML file for my romset? I tried Don's tools, but that just matches my ROMS to the downloaded XML file, which excludes a bunch of games. I'm running all x86 programs (as opposed to x64 - the computer doesn't like 64 bit). Running Hyperspin frontend with Rocketlauncher and Retroarch. Thanks i…

What is F.T.P., what does that stand for, and where the hell is it? I see all over the place people talking about getting art from F.T.P., working with it, etc. I even see a forum talking about how to log on to it. But I haven't seen any link to the site (if that's what it is), anything explaining what it is. So, please, as if I was a complete moron, what is this thing and where is it? I'm a platinum member, so I should have access. Thanks!

Hoping someone can give me some assistance with this. I would like to run demul shooter with the Sega M2 emulator from Nebula with hyperspin. Obviously I would like to launch it in the background automatically which needs to be via a comand line (or so I am led to belive) Has anyone done this and offer some advice to me how to do it? Many thanks.

After a year or more of smooth running I am all of a sudden getting what seems like very low frame rates when i start Hyperspin. It happens about 1 in 20 start ups (ish) the rest of the time it runs great its just the odd time it goes bad. I've created an exception in my AV (Microsoft Security Essentials), I am running in windows performance desktop, have app quality set to high in HyperHQ, and have system specs well above required (i5, GTX970 etc) This has began happening just this week (after a video driver update and a RL update but not immediately after either, so i cannot draw a cause to it being either of those) I have also had this exact issue whe…

I'm not planning on uploading a video for each game, so that black video preview box is just sitting there for each game in the wheel. Any way to get rid of it?

Hi everyone I've been away for awile after building the last HS system and am now working one for my own house and with 1.4 and rocket launcher it seems like some things changed. I cant seem to find where to slow down how fast it brings an image (like a cart or box art) out. It comes out so fast its disorienting and I would like to slow it down as to be able to read the wheel art. Ive slowed down the wheel to low in Hyper HQ althe way to low but don't see any other thing to adjust speed besides Special Art, and those are flash art things right? Any help would be great, thanks.

is my months of Hyperspin work lost forever?? I was putting GameCube functionality on for use within Dolphin and everything was working great - but when adding Ishiiruka as a 2nd option for starwars i noticed an odd error when the Dolphin.ahk had turned red and an error about tampered Dolphin.isd was reported. Games now no longer opened successfully except whilst using Dolphin outside of hyperspin. - so........ i replaced the Dolphin.ahk and Dolphin.isd with the files from the rocketlauncher installer and the errors went away but to my horror - when i try to run a game - i get a little box FULL of Errors. Error: Call to existent function. Specifically: HideApp…

I tried to find a solution on here, but no luck. I am working on getting my system set up, and I ran into a weird issue. I have the SNES emulator set up, but when I go into a game from the wheel, it opens the emulator, but not the game. I am not using any other launcher, and I remember this working before when I set it up. Is this something simple, or do I need to use another program to get it to launch into the game? I am using ZSNES.

New to Hyperspin and I don't think I am going to be using all of the stock consoles that are loaded on the Main Screen wheel of Hyper Spin. How do i remove a console like " Dreamcast" from the wheel?

Hey Guys, When I go to any Mame-SNK game, the videos appear corrupted in HS. I can hear the sound and the video had a splash of grey on it..... the video pops in and out a bit.. only does this with SNK videos. I went to the ftp and re downloaded the 480p version set and it still does it. What is odd is in Windows the videos work fine?? Anyone else ever have a similar issue? thanks Jim

Hi! I'm a noob when it comes to Hyperspin And I'm wondering how do I configure my eight button SNES USB controller to run with HS? If it comes down to it all just open Hyper HQ a bunch of times and (very)slowly make adjustments to the button mapping... but if anyone could tell me what exactly the buttons do, it would make it a lot easier to map out. Here's a picture of my controller and a somewhat confusing Hyper HQ joystick mapping Menu.

Ok, I've heard people mention using games from different emulators on one wheel (like a favorites wheel for multiple systems) games from mame, PSP, NES, etc. My question is do you have to copy all the media files for the games or just simply setup the XML?

Hello there! Mame version: 154 JoyToKey version: 5.8.2.363 This issue/behavior seems to only happen when I configure JoyToKey. No issues when JoyToKey is NOT configured. With JoyToKey configured: Upon start of HyperSpin, all of the buttons on my Arcade stick seem to function properly. I'm able to browse via Main Settings wheel > Mame Wheel > and I'm able to launch games and exit out of them. Although after testing 2 games (always 2), on my 3rd attempt to try and launch a game, MAME seems to run in the background while HyperSpin still shows up on the screen. I'll try to exit out, and that's when I receive this error. (Attached screenshot) Looking a…

Hey guys, I have an arcade cabinet setup and would essentially like to run different Controller Configurations based on the game I launch. For example... 4 Button Controller Config - Run this config when 4 button games are launched such as Capcoms Dungeons and Dragons 6 Button Controller Config - Run this config when 6 button games are launched such as Capcoms Street Fighter series Default Controller Config - Runs this if any of the above does not apply Anyone done similar? I'm pretty sure I can do this by making a new System and XML for each of the scenarios above. But I would rather not break up my MAME list like that. I'm hoping a combination of RocketLauncher and …

Hey Guys, i am setting up mame on my Hyperspin setup, and i think i am going crazy No matter hwat i try, i cannot get MAME showing HLSL when i launch a game in Hyperspin/Rocket Launcher. If i launch the game directly in MAME(UIFX), i does work. I tried everything; coppying mame.ini files to different locations, pointing the ini path to the ini folder in RL, change the module setting in RL to ini or true,. change the video setting in RL to ini, tried different emulators etc. nothing works. I also removed mame from my systemslist in RL completely and reinstalled but to no avail. I really hope someone can help me out.
