No JoytoKey ;-(


OPM

Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello everyone I have now been trying for the past day to get JoyToKey to work and although I thought I was close I still have a few issues.

 

1) When I first load HS and choose my required emulator i.e Neo Geo go in and select a game and press the button everything works fine. The Joystick works fine the buttons I have mapped all work fine even my genre and favourite buttons work and even if I hold down on the Joystick for 2 secs I can select a letter from the alphabet to choose. 

 

So everything works up until this point but its when I exit out of Hyperspin and then re-load it I have a problem. The JTK icon is still displayed in my task bar. So once I load up HS again no controls work at all unless I close JTK  before re-opening. 

 

So  on the 1st time I open HS everything works fine and I can navigate everywhere using Joystick and buttons its just that on exit and re-entry of HS I can not use any controls to navigate I have to press the Windows key on the keyboard and close down and close JTK from task-bar.

 

The picture attached also shows another problem I can't seem to fix. Why is my FE called RLUI and not HyperSpin. I followed Spawks cool tutorial but I can't seem to sort this out.

 

Thank you everyone for all your support.

I think you may have missed something in the tutorial. That first profile you made in JtK is what is being loaded when you first open hyperspin. This is only needed because RocketLauncher is NOT loaded yet and cannot control any JtK profiles yet! This is done from RL only when exiting an emulator (ie you neogeo), then it loads the HyperSpin profile... but yours is named RocketLauncherUI not Hyperspin!

 

Does it contain the proper navigation controls? (check by clicking edit in the lower window)

 

If yes, try this: in RLUI, under "General Settings", KeyMapper", "Frontend Profile Name" --- insert "RocketLauncherUI"

 

Now see if it loads that profile when exiting an Emu

Before I try this can you please  tell me what settings I need in RL, RLUI tab under frontends, maybe this is conflicting I am unsure what the default settings should be?

 

So in RLUI under the RLUI tab you can choose frontends then you can edit them by double clicking on them

 

RocketLauncher UI

HyperSpin 1.4

 

After double clicking you can then choose the following I need to know what I need to select from these drop down boxes.

You should have some sort of exit batch when closing Hyperspin to close any unnecessary programs, this would probably solve one of your problems

I have a "exithyperspin.bat" set in my HyperHQ as exit program, cause I use Hypersearch and have a AHK script to clean out my temp folders.

One of the lines in this batch is (taskkill /f /fi "IMAGENAME eq JoyToKey.exe"), don't include the brackets tho, this will kill the JoyToKey program.

 

Both of the plugins in RLUI should mention Hyperspin.

Other than that  I have 3 JoytoKey profiles in RLUI, one for Hyperspin, one for Rocketlauncher to be able to control hyperpause, and a _default one which has no mappings set what so ever.

 

I hope this will aid you in solving your problem.

No need to edit these, the default values are fine. Just set Hyperspin as "Default" and "Active" here

I do have them set as active and default its the options I need to know when you double click on them and another window opens up so you can choose from the drop down list?

For RocketLauncher:

 

Under RL UI plugin mine says "Auto-Detect"

Under RL plugin mine says "Default"

 

For Hyperspin:

 

Both are set to "HyperSpin"

 

Again, you should have not needed to touch these in the first place, that's why I didn't include it in the tutorial.

 

As for closing, like I said, try adding the same command in the EXIT PROGRAM section in HYPERHQ as you put in for the START PROGRAM section. RL does not handle the closing of programs when you quit HS, so RL is not the culprit here HS is... or possibly an incorrect option selected in JTK itself.
