Just got done after spending 2 days renaming my full psx set with don's renamer to find out that complications run much deeper than expected. I've noticed that while it did correctly rename a few hundred releases that needed renaming, the .bin files do not match the database name, and that seems to cause some complications. As just one example, lets take Tomb Raider (USA).7z, which inside the archive has Tomb Raider (USA) (v1.1) (Track 01).bin - Tomb Raider (USA) (v1.1) (Track 57).bin I will get a "CD not usable, failed to open file" error, unless I go in and manually rename all the .bin files to Tomb Raider (USA).bin / Tomb Raider (USA).cue ....and since this has…

Just bought a new laptop and copied my existing hyperspin set-up over to it. Upon starting hyperspin all the video snaps are garbled. At first I thought I must be missing the necessary codecs, so I downloaded the recommended codecs listed on emumovies, and when that didn't help the situation I downloaded ffdshow. Problem remains. I went to the video snaps using windows explorer and test ran the videos using Windows Movie Player. Low and behold the videos worked just fine. I looked to see what the default video player was and it was Movies and TV. So I test ran the videos in that application and they worked just fine there too. So I am kind of stumped as to why the vid…

Okay, here it goes! This is my first post to the forums. So far all the threads I have read have been really helpful and I have gotten most of my setups done with ease! When it came to Popcap games most of the threads were hard to follow and only answered a specific question. There were no videos on the web or a start to finish guide. After failing a few times I was able to get it running really..i mean really easy with no editing of scripts or compiling. I am sure you can if you want to add special functions but this is a guide for an easy install of popcap. 1. Create a popcap folder in emulators folder C:Hyperspin\Emulators\PopCap Within this folder I pasted all …

Hello Im just getting back into using Hyperspin and i used the tutorial on setting it up and everyone works perfectly but the only problem i have is that when i end the game i cant start another game because HyperLaunch is still going in the background. When i end it I can Start another game but i dont want to have to do that in my arcade cabinet as its very annoying. Ive been searching the web and everywhere and nothing seems to work on trying to fix this problem. I was thinking maybe its windows 10?

I have windows 7 64 bit OS I am using a wireless keyboard to navigate the HS wheel, cursor keys. (Latest, correct drivers installed) I am clicking on and off of the hyper-spin window onto the desktop, HS is in windowed mode atm. I've been working on the wheel hence the clicking on and off of it in windowed mode. I have a few controllers plugged in for the emulators, snes, mega-drive et cetera but I do not have any joysticks enabled in HyperHQ, they are all disabled- unselected. The wheel sometimes spins like mad and will only stop (99% of the time) when I press the window key. I have read the other posts but nothing appears to directly relate to my problem.

As im learning the in's and out's of this system, im trying to figure out whats the best way to sync 100+ systems with my controller setup. Currently I have a 4P joystick setup, plus 4P xbox360 wired controllers. I currently dont have RetroArch setup, and i was wondering from those in the community that do, does retroarch streamline the controllers across all the systems it supports? Or will I still need to do a configuration for each system within retroarch? Is it easier to setup each controllers individually in each emulator, or to create joy2key profiles for each system? The goal is to have both Joysticks and gamepads functional across all systems, that way I …

I am getting the following errors after set up of PS1 games through RL, Using the RetroArch Emulator. I have completed the RL set up and trying to run the games within RL, as following along with Simply Austin's youtube tutorial. There was an error waiting for the window "RetroArch ahk_class RetroArch". Please check you have the correct version emulator installed for this module, followed any notes in the module, and have this emulator working outside your Frontend first. Also turn off Fade to see if you are hiding your problem. After that closes I get a windows error that reads: Runtime Error! Program Z:\Hyperspin\Emulators\RetroArch\RetroArch.exe This appl…

Currently I am working on MAMEUIFX 0.151 with working roms for that version. I am able to launch the games without issue through MAMEUIFX 0.151 Emulator. However when I try to launch through RL it takes me to another screen (See attachment). From there I can't navigate to the game I chose and will not launch the selected game.

Hey all! Ok so, I've got my hyperspin running and Mame figured out. However, when I scroll through the roms for MAME (which is the only emulator that I have right now), there is no artwork or small movie displayed of the game. To me, that means I have no artwork or themes. I've followed simplyaustin's tutorials on setting up hyperspin and everything, but I can't figure out hypersync, and this is where I believe I have a problem. I've set up hypersync, but for some reason, maybe I did not set it up correctly. When I try to Sync (with MAME selected of course), instantaneously I get the notification that it's completed ("updated"). Nothing was loaded, I've got no…

Hi! I'm using PCLauncher to launch Mad Dog McCree and it starts fine but in windowed mode. How would I send an "f" keyboard command after fade to go in to full screen? There are no options to stay in full screen within the exe. It also looks like the key remap of the left and right mouse buttons using AHK isn't being received by the exe but works in keymapper test. Thanks for any help!

I just noticed that sega/nintendo classics have no videos. Is this correct? seems that all the other classics have videos. Emumovies only shows 1 file each for sega/nintendo classics. Is there a quick and easy way to transfer video's for just the games that are in those classics from the nintendo/sega media/video directory over to the classics directory? Could someone also please explain to me how to correctly default the emulator in classics? Right now the default appears to be mame for everything and nothing is working

Sorry for making several threads but I again have more questions and issues. If these posts are causing too much spam or causing any issues here please tell me. 1 How do I stop the fade-in and fade-out of the controller buttons so that they remain permanently? 2 Is it possible to add 4 players all with their own controllers instead of only having Player 1 and Player 2 in Hyper HQ? 3 For my NES system I have the rom path set in both Hyper HQ and rocket launcher, all games are recognized when I audit inside of rocketlauncher, and I have all the artwork for each rom. However, when I go inside the NES wheel only 4 titles appear? 4 I have scanlines checked in …

Hi all welcome I have a problem with my custom theme for the new games and other games. The problem is with smooth playback flv or mp4 in Hyperspin. When the same video I turn on Windows Player or VLC player is fluid and smooth at 60fps. When video file I add to Hyperspin (C: \ Hyperspin \ Media \ PC Games \ Video) is not smooth, and lost frames. To convert video files I use AVC Converter. Other movie that game downloaded from the section "download" page or Emu Movies run more smoothly than those that I do. What is wrong?

Hi all, new user and first post! Every theme that contains an element with "flag" animation doesn't load properly, everything just freezes until the flag animation stops (longer the animation, worst it is obviously) then snaps back to normal, the first themes that gave me this issue were Castlevania Dracula X and Wario's Woods for the Snes, then i managed to recreate the problem with a custom theme. Are there any fixes for this?

Choosing a path for a rom folder in HyperHQ causes an instant crash. I've been told this is a known issue with HyperHQ running on Windows 10 but is there anything I can do about it now? Any hot-fixes or planned updates for HyperHQ to fix this? Otherwise my Hyperspin setup is completely broken :/ I did try compatibility modes just to see if that would help but Windows XP - Windows 8 all still had the same issue.

Hi, I'm suddenly having a problem when my MAME wheel starts up directly to my favorites. I select the MAME wheel and the screen goes black. I can hear sounds and can blindly select a game, but then returns to a black screen. I can select the GENRE of ALL GAMES, which displays correctly -- but if I go to VIEW FAVORITES again black screen. I checked the FAVORITES file and it looks ok -- I even removed all but 2 games just to make sure the file wasn't somehow corrupted. This has been working fine -- not sure what would have changed. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi There HyperSpiners! So I'm almost done setting up hyperpsin and I've started mapping keys using JoytoKey. My questionis regarding profiles. Once I create a MAME systems profile and verified that it works I would like to create a copy of that profile under different systems in rocketlauncher. Is there a way to do that? Or do I need to recreate it each time?

Hi all, Am testing all the Famicom Disk system games for the latest database and am struggling with (albeit very few) games that span multiple disks. Has anyone found a way of CHANGING the disk when prompted, via any emulator? I can change between sides of SAME disk no problem, its in the very few instances where I need to remove DISK 1 and then insert DISK 2. Every emulator I have tried reboots to the Bios when a NEW disk is inserted. Thanks,

Hi All, So I'm half way through building a G1 transformers themed cabinet, and while it's getting sprayed up I wanted some advice on how to made some Hyperspin customisations. I've been on the Hyperspin train for a few years now kinda messing around with themes/wheels/movies etc etc but would like a few tips on where/how to do some, transitions? Basically my idea is using a video of the old transformers cartoon logo transition - which is when the cartoon story moves from focusing on autobots, to decepticons and it does the black screen with logo that comes out as autobots and then spins to decepticons and fades (or vice versa). I wanted this in place or the fa…
