Games won't run out of Hyperspin

I can't get any games, MAME, N64 etc to start out of hyperspin. They were previously working and then I had an OS crash. Got the new OS going, even started completely fresh with RocketLauncher 1.0.1.5 & Hyperspin 1.4. I felt like I had a good grasp of what was going on with all of this until this issue and I've been banging my head against the wall for a couple of days and can't figure out what I'm missing. Here's my hyperspin log

Thanks Agent47 (love that by the way) I can run all games from Rocket launcher ui and the mame emulator directly by itself. No errors come up, just what looks like success from the log? I've fully updated to .171 and using mame64 and mame emu's .171. Have tired with romsets .161 that worked as well previously. I know i'm missing something easy, just have been looking at it too long. Thanks!

I've used multiple MAME emulators even and everything works out of RLUI. I feel like I'm missing something with Hyperspin but can't put my finger on it at all.

How can you tell that? If you're assuming that because there's no extension after the game name in the log, there's never an extension when using RL. HS just passes the system name and the rom name, no extension. You only need extensions set in HyperHQ if you have the Roms Only filter enabled.

True... but if they load fine in RL and not HS then I assume it's a HSHQ setting that is wrong. And there is not that many settings in HSHQ!

Says he's using fresh RL+HS1.4 so yeah, probably path to RL not set correctly.

All great feedback thank you guys! I do have HS set as active and default. I see all my emulators on the left side of the screen in RL. Just as a side note I've followed simply austins tutorials, which are great! They all worked until the OS crash. Fightcade is the only thing working out of HS (which probably helps 0%). My RL path in the RS settings.ini - is E:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe. I'm going to format both drives again, start from scratch with downloads and everything and post back results in a couple of hours. I really do appreciate you both taking your time and helping me out.

Loaded up windows 8.1 first and the same thing happened .. Didn't care, upgrade to windows 10, opened up hypersync and installed .net with it's requirements, opened hyperspin and played multiple games in mame instantly ... The only thing I can attest this to is I was screwing around with Street Fighter IV a ton with Steam and GFWL .... F** them now. Was just trying to expand out the arcade! Thanks for the discussion and input gentlemen.

I'm new and I have spent several days trying to figure out why I cannot get games to launch from HyperSpin. The games play from the Mame emulator 0.171 and from RocketLauncher, but they won't play in HyperSpin. I've followed the tutorial video on this site. I'm using RocketLauncher and HS 1.4.

I followed the tutorial video exactly. Installing HS 1.3.3 and then replacing the files with the HS 1.4. I edited the settings.ini like the video showed. I have read some forum posts that said to delete HyperLaunch.exe and rename RocketLauncher.exe  as HyperLaunch.exe. Others have said that is not necessary. So I'm not sure which is correct. None of the videos said to do that. Thank you for your help by the way.

this is an outdated and NOT RECOMMENDED fix for HS version 1.3.

 

Hyperspin 1.3  will only look for hyperlaunch.exe,  it cannot use Rocketlauincher.exe directly.  a quick and dirty fix is to rename Rocketlauncher.exe to Hyperlaunch.exe.

again its not recommended and it's only to fix a limitation found in Hyperspin 1.3

 

Hypespin 1.4 does not have this limitation because it  has the ability to look for and find Rocketlauncher.exe

First thing I'd try, as a sanity check, would be to re-apply the 1.4 patch to see if that fixed it and just to be absolutely sure antivirus didn't intercept and quarantine part of it during the initial installation.

I was thinking something along those lines. Thanks for the heads up. Wanted to make certain I didn't derp the video lol

Hi everyone

 

I just wanted to post the issue that I had on the chance it might help someone. I was having similar problems with my MAME games working fine from the MAME emulator and from Rocket Launcher but not running from HyperSpin. When I would click on the game in HyperSpin, nothing would happen...

 

Turns out that the problem was very simple. The path I had in the settings.ini was:  Hyperlaunch_Path=E:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe but the problem was that the name of the folder was Rocket Launcher with a space between the two words. All my problems were due to a simple space between words in the folder name but not putting the space in the path. 

 

Make sure you have no typos including spaces. It will save you bald spots from pulling your hair out  :)
