Launching an android app from the main menu?

I recently sideloaded Ducktales Remastered to my shield tv.  I've been trying to get it to launch from hyperspin's main menu but after choosing the game HS crashes to the dashboard.

 

 

this is what my exe command looks like:

 

 

[exe info]

path=
rompath=
userompath=true
exe=com.disney.ducktalesremastered_goo/.DuckTalesActivity
romextension=
parameters=
searchsubfolders=true
pcgame=true
winstate=HIDDEN
hyperlaunch=true
 

 

 

I also tried a version without the activity added:

 

 

[exe info]

path=
rompath=
userompath=true
exe=com.disney.ducktalesremastered_goo
romextension=
parameters=
searchsubfolders=true
pcgame=true
winstate=HIDDEN
hyperlaunch=true
 

 

 

Neither of these seem to work, is there something I'm doing wrong?

At the moment, it's designed to run Android games from an Android wheel (with the dbase .xml defining the list of games).  

In settings .ini, you set: pcgame=true

 

I've never tried launching individual games in the primary wheel and so I'm not surprised there is a problem.

 

You CAN make the Android wheel your only wheel, so the result would look similar.

In this case, you set:

 

Single_Mode_Name=Android
Menu_Mode=single

Ah ok I must have misunderstood. So in the xml for the android wheel do I have to put com.ducktales as the game name for it to launch correctly?

Happy days :) Only the game name needs to match, the description in the XML file is how the title appears on your wheel :)

Yes works perfectly thanks, trying to find other games that support bluetooth/HID controllers so I can add them to my android wheel thanks!
