reznnate Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 The .ini file is easy, but here is a start on the dbase "Game and Watch.xml" file.

mihaliousa Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 That black space should be your game and watch wheel. Have you created a wheel for this system and placed it on main menu media/images/wheels? If you put one there, it will show up in your wheel - just make sure you name it exactly as it is in your xml list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sting Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Go to hyper HQ and type in (Game and Watch) not (Game and Watch), then go to (Hyperspin/media/main menu/images/wheel) and change your (Game & Watch) logo name to (Game and Watch). Now start Hyperspin, you should now see your logo. All you have to do now is rename the rest of your media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sting Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Yeah doesn't recognise (&) unless you put it as (&) don't know the reason why, I just know it doesn't. You may find some of your database .XML files contain (&), in which case Hyperspin will only read to that point. Example if I had a game called Batman & Robin, my game wheel on that system would stop there, and I'd be unable to see anything beyond that point.
