pofo14 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Nice work. My vote would be for media sync. While I agree with your perspective I think there are other ROM mgmt tools we have been living with. Also I think most people have fairly clean sets by now. If we are saying HyperSync is gonna be deprecated get that piece out of beta first and then move onto the next thing. Just my 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll keep you up to date. Edit: I have it working. I'll run it through a few more tests and get a build out to everyone as soon as I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fr0stbyt3 Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 UPDATE: I have sync tested and working for all HBL media types. I will release the new beta in the next few days. A few things to note. You have to do a complete reinstall for HBL. please completely uninstall the previous version before you start. Auto update does not have prompts right now. So if you open the app, it will do this in the background automatically This only happens on startup Emumovies in not tested right now, so it's disabled. Consoles will be added one at a time from the view all screen Rom view will be included in this build. Matching is only by name at this point. More soon. Logging is will be removed for now. I'm writing a new one for those of you that love watching log files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KlopjerO Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Just curious... you have these databases..and all this media..and it has some degree of figuring out how to do what...how much effort would it be to have a search option in the way that hyperxmlspin has? I search for contra, it gives back all entries that contain contra, you pick the titles you want. Dump to XML and gather up available media...or is this out of scope? if it's able to match rom names to titles. then i assumed that it HBL is working of database of somekind..so I figured it could be able to perform such mix and match operations.

It sounds like you want to have the app create custom XML files for you or something. Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right? please excuse my in coherency. yes a global search function. that would enable user to setup franchise (or perhaps even developer) specific "systems" and it's not something I want, or a feature request but rather a thought that I had regarding (perceived) capabilities of this tool.

It's been a while since I used the last beta, will this one come up the up to date databases? Just wondering if HBL is / will be the definitive source for databases or if that is someplace else.

This should have all data that has been uploaded to date. However, the first build will not export XML files for you. It'll just handle sync for now. I'll tackle export in the coming weeks.

Yes, you could - in theory. However, I would prefer that it create genre filters for you to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TL;DR It makes all the things more better. We Sync or Output Media ( wheels, themes, ect.) Metadata Emulators (shh thats totally a secret) Launch scripts (also secret) Other awesome for new things coming out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks You are correct that it should be more descriptive. I was joking with you btw. The whole point of this is so you don't have to be experts on hyperspin to get everything up and running. I want to, as much as possible, give you a shiny magic button for everything you could want. That way you focus on gaming and not on xml formatting and crc checks.

Check out the pack @gigapig put together for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fr0stbyt3 Posted February 2, 2017 Author Share Posted February 2, 2017 I have a very early build available now. One thing it is missing right now is loading animations and progress indicators when adding a system. Right now, we're just testing media sync and overall system compatibility. 32bit: http://hyperbase-live.com/updates/win32/Hyperbase Live Setup 0.0.17-ia32.exe 64bit: http://hyperbase-live.com/updates/win64/Hyperbase Live Setup 0.0.17.exe Setup process: Delete any older HBL installs Run the exe Login In client settings, add the location you have hyperspin installed Go to view all Select the system you want to add Set the path to the ROM directory Wait for it to show on the main screen. (it's doing basic rom matching here) Click the new system Click the wrench in the top right corner (going to clean up placement shortly) Set whatever options you would like and save Go to the main page and click the sync button Please let me know if you have any issues getting media to sync. In the next few days, I will post an update with a little more of a guided setup and some loading animations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
