gunit Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Hi, would I need to install the PC game first before setting these up in HyperSpin ? the only reason I ask is my operating system for this project has been setup on anohter drive to be installed in the bartop arcade.

gunit Posted September 23, 2015 Author Share Posted September 23, 2015 * I have a separate drive for my roms, should I just install the games onto this ? - ( its not going to install any random crap onto my PC operating system ? as this will not be in the arcade bartop if that makes sense) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So for example if you install the game onto a separate HDD and then plug that HDD into a different computer that game will not run because it's missing those hidden files/registry entries. When I built a new PC for my cab and moved my H: Hyperspin files over about half (more?) of my non-Steam PC games quit working. Steam games also seem to need to be on the system drive and have their hooks into other files too. Because of this I now keep all PC games (Steam and non-Steam) installed on my OS/System C: drive and I keep everything else Hyperspin (HS, RL, all apps, all emus, all roms, all CHD's, all ISOs, all media etc...) on a separate H: drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunit Posted September 23, 2015 Author Share Posted September 23, 2015 thought so thanks, think I will work on the PC games for Hyperspin once I have built the Bartop Arcade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
