demonseed Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Is there a way to filter a game list in HS that has Wheels AND videos?
demonseed Posted December 15, 2015 Author Posted December 15, 2015 Maybe they can add it in future. With the video previews for games when there isn't one it shows generic one. Can I make a generic video but made to each system ? Or does hs draw the generic missing image from one spot? So I'd like to have for example generic nes video for games I am missing video for a generic snes video etc... I hope this makes sense.
gigapig Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 You can filter by wheels only in HyperHQ. Your generic video will need to be named after each game in the xml or make a new "No Video" video which will play whenever you land on a game with no video. Place that in :HyperSpin\Media\Frontend\Video
demonseed Posted December 15, 2015 Author Posted December 15, 2015 The no video is defaulted to every system though? No way to have different no video per system?
gigapig Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Actually I've never tried naming a video "default" and it show up if you don't have one named after the game. Give it a try, I don't think it works but maybe?
rastan Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 using a default video in a system's video folder doesn't work. making a video and renaming it to the game's in your XML is probably the best bet but honestly if it's a system like NES (popular systems known for full romsets) you probably could easily find the video snaps for those (GOOGLE) I didn't like the generic default no video so I renamed the commercial for Xarcade and used it as my no video default video... I thought it was cool because I plan on getting the tank stick from them.... but now that I have full videos for all the systems except PSP and TriForce (which I'm working on) the X arcade commercial seems a little lame now and I may change it back to either the static or the FIX ME OUT OF ORDER.. because they may go better with the overall flow of how my Hyperspin is set up now. Best bet would be to track down the videos for those systems/games because unless you have a handful of games that require videos.. the time it would take to rename a video to each game in your sets... you could have probably found what you're looking for via GOOGLE and or youtube.
kylecp1979 Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 I think you can filter some out in hyperHQ
rastan Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 I think you can filter some out in hyperHQ you can filter out games that don't have a wheel... i'm not sure if you can filter games without video? but to me the ones without video aren't as bad as games without a wheel.
rastan Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 I always set my stuff to WHEELS ONLY... on systems like NES and GENESIS I may have a handful of games that don't have a wheel but they're games I'm never gonna play or just suck to begin with and with full sets I don't even notice them not showing up. I noticed when I did that with MAME.... I actually found more games I do play and it cut out a lot of MAHHOG or whatever crap
rastan Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 right now Future Pinball is the only thing I don't filter because I don't have ARTWORK for everything.
gigapig Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 right now Future Pinball is the only thing I don't filter because I don't have ARTWORK for everything. Isn't all that available on the pinball sites? Pinsim or vpforums?
