Taito Type X and Hyperlaunch 3.0

langersld · July 14, 2013

I just wanted to get clarification that Taito Type X is working fine in the New RocketLauncher...

In the PC Launcher.ini...I am pointing the script to the bat files

eg:

[super Street Fighter IV]

Application=C:\Hyperspin\Games\Taito Type X\Super Street Fighter IV\Super Street Fighter IV.bat

AppWaitExe=game.exe

I seem to be getting an issue where the game starts fine but after 20 seconds closes and the Hyperlaunch "now loading page appears"

Any help appreciated

You don't have to, setup something else, play some games, have a hot candlelit bubble bath and listen to some Kenny G.
It will all still be here tomorrow.

i'm stubborn mate I know I should walk away and think eh oh I cant do this, but I get a buzz when it works ya know what your right balls to type x for the time being but as Arnie said on more than one occasion "I'll Be Back!!!!"

sucramjd · July 26, 2013

i'll come back to this system at a later date hopefully by then someone will have walked us all through it, just like to say a big thank you to Gigapig for all his help and djvj for his guidance, I wouldn't even want to know what goes through his mind he's a god of some sorts:) anyway iv'e a life besides hyperspin and also i'm going to play me some of my systems that are working relax time oh and who the hell is Kenny G????

@djvj -
Noticed this today... The ..Modules/DXWnd/DXWnd.ini file as pulled from the dropbox has the System (rotation type) for all games as "Vertical". However, when editting that file using HLHQ, it uses "Vertical Rotation". When it is set as "Vertical Rotation", that's when "standard" appears on the logs... Could this be the source of rotation issues for some?

Its not mine, I'm having other issues, but this appears out of sync...

Hope this helps...

Thank you! This would definitely cause a problem. What's odd is it still rotated my monitor (as you can see from my log above). This is the reason I never caught the error in the ISD. Sorry guys.

Can confirm that this is now working... thanks DJVJ & wahoobrian... Im sure there is going to be a lot of happy Gamers.......

only issue im getting is with both raiden games ... they load and rotate but remain aspect ratio... any ideas on how to stretch them full screen:beer:....

gigapig · July 27, 2013

Thank you wahoobrian and Mr dj.

Looking forward to testing when I get home. Good job.

gigapig · July 27, 2013

Wahoo, I would like to thank you again, as you would have read some for us have spent a lot of time on this, there have been many late nights and heads banged on various surfaces.

If these are indeed working we can start getting some guides together.

Thank you Sir.

It's not working for me, not sure what I'm doing different but its loading the same as before only now when I exit, hyperspin is rotated, and when I exit hyperspin I have to rotate my desktop back to normal and I have to change my resolution to a smaller one then back to my usual resolution otherwise my task bar is stuck half way up and to the left of the screen, wtf!!

Edit

I now have it working the way you guys wanted only hyperspin loses focus when I exit the game.

I hadnt added the game.exe to dxwnd, doh

Now to find how I flip it.

Will you need to change the rotation from 90 to 180 degrees?

Will you need to change the rotation from 90 to 180 degrees?

Also been trying to visualise your setup. Do you have a verticle monitor in a cab, one that rotates at the touch of a button or is it on a desk?

Just curious.

Just trying to find where I need to change it, I'll have a nose in the module itself.

Homemade rotation system, rotates automatically using ahk script

I found how to bring focus back here in the module:

;    Sleep, 500 ;Uncomment these 2 lines if HS doesn't regain focus after closing a vertical game, sloppy but it works until 

something else is thought of
;    Send, {ALTDOWN}{TAB}{ALTUP}

As it says, remove the comments. I know we're not supposed to edit the module but it works

Edit

I needed to edit the module to change rotation to suit my setup:

If system = Vertical
{    If verticalMethod = iRotate
       Run("iRotate.exe /rotate=90 /exit", moduleExtensionsPath) ; another option to rotate screen
   Else If  verticalMethod = Display
       Run("display.exe /rotate:[color=#FF0000]180[/color]", moduleExtensionsPath) ; Switching to [color=#FF0000]180[/color]�
   ;Sleep, 200
}

Another one ticked off

Massive thank you to all of you who got this sorted

Next up, Homura

connorsdad · July 27, 2013

Djvj, would it be possible to add the postlaunch/postexit abilities to the global settings for dxwnd.ahk ?

The only way I can think of getting my monitor to rotate at the moment is changing the name of game.exe to gamevertical.exe, and having an ahk to listen out for process gamevertical.exe which then fires off the rotate monitor command. Once the process is killed the rotation is reversed.

wahoobrian · July 27, 2013

For you folks that are/were having the vertical issues, how are things looking now with the fix DJVJ made? The only game I have "working" is GigaWing Generations, it rotates fine, but I get the extra-fatty version of that one - It stretches all the way across my 1920x1080 dimensions.... Are you guys seeing similar behavior? I can't even get the others to run... But I'm trying to focus on one at a time...

sucramjd · July 27, 2013

we have a winner almost, it launches uses dxwnd rotates but its pixelated how do I change the resolution?

Visitor Q · July 27, 2013

What verison of DXWnd are you guys using? Are you using the version from djvj's ftp dir?

wahoobrian · July 27, 2013

What verison of DXWnd are you guys using? Are you using the version from djvj's ftp dir?

I'm using the version specified in the module - v2.01.90

sucramjd · July 27, 2013

I use the latest one v2.02.27

Visitor Q · July 27, 2013

I use the latest one v2.02.27

There is a .28 out

wahoobrian · July 27, 2013

we have a winner almost, it launches uses dxwnd rotates but its pixelated how do I change the resolution?

What game(s) specifically? You having any luck with Raiden III, IV, etc?

sucramjd · July 27, 2013

Just gigawing so far, i'm just updating the module so will let you know shortly.

Visitor Q · July 27, 2013

I can't even get it to run the game in HSHQ via DXWnd. Any ideas what is wrong? I try to run it in HSHQ and all it does is open windows explorer and DXWnd, gives me that error and never runs the game. The game runs outside of DXWnd if I run the bat file from djvj but it does not run when I try to from inside DXWnd using the game.exe

				;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
				; Notes:
				; DXWnd is a windows hooker that intercepts DirectX calls to make fullscreen programs run within a window.
				; It can be downloaded here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dxwnd/
				; Extract it to your "Module Extensions" folder
				; Read the notes in the ini for further settings to help with rotating your monitor for vertical games
				; Vertical games are windowed, rotated, windows hidden (taskbar/start button/desktop), then the correct resolution is calculated and the game's window is maximized. This gives the look of a fullscreen game, but it's actually in a window.
				; You may have to set Skipchecks to true in your HyperLaunch.ini, otherwise HyperLaunch will error looking for a rom if your exe/bat/lnk is not the same name as you have in your xml.
				;
				; Taito Type X Instructions:
				; 1. Backup your game.exe and typex_bindings.bin for each game (only if you want to have a backup)
				; 2. In HyperHQ, use the Wizard to create a new wheel, name it Taito Type X
				; 3. Download everything you see on the FTP, keeping dir names/structure and empty "sv" dirs.
				;
				; Taito Type X Notes:
				; - IMPORTANT *** Requires files located in my user dir on the ftp at /Upload Here/djvj/Taito Type X/. I hacked every exe to save its config/logs into the sv subdir. If you use my exes, make sure you create an sv dir so the game can save its settings. ***
				; - IMPORTANT *** Edit the dxwnd.ini file and update the dirs to where your games are located, or update the paths in dxwnd itself. ***
				; - IMPORTANT *** Do not attempt to run TTX games off an SMB share, they won't work.
				; - Make sure the game's folder and bat files in each game's dir are named the same as the database's game name
				; - Every game, except Arcana Hearts, saves config and logs to a D or Z partition. Arcana saves everything in the registry . I hacked every game.exe so you do not need D or Z drives. Instead you just create an sv dir inside each game's root folder and it will save all configs/logs in there instead.
				; - The controls bin only needs to be made once, then copy/paste your control bin into each game's dir, overwriting the existing one.
				; - Arcana Hearts I had to hex edit the controls into the exe. I provided a txt with info where (in hex) and what the controls are (CHANGE KEYS.txt). (Note, with the updated loader this is no longer necessary and works as a standard game)
				; - Taisen has no way to change the keys afaik, you are out of luck on this one until a solution surfaces.
				; - Raiden 4 is very buggy, but I finally got it working 100% everytime on my PC. If it starts crashing when it worked prior, reboot your PC.
				; - Raiden 4 requires a trick to get it to work correctly, otherwise it crashes everytime. I hope someone finds a better hack one day as the one I use I feel like it might not work everytime. There have been reports it doesn't work on every PC...
				; - All the games should exit with the ESC key except for Arcana Hearts which the script will send Alt+F4
				; - Some systems iRotate might not work, try commenting the iRotate.exe lines and uncomment the display.exe lines instead
				;
				; - Homura and Shikigami no Shiro III use custom d3d8 and d3d9 dll files, these fix the the games from going hyperfast. I did not make them and they create a wahwahwah.arc file when you launch the game. Edit this file in notepad and change InitProxyFunctions to 0 and PartOfENBSeries to localhost. Save the file, then change it to read-only so it doesn't get restored.
				; - If SF4 is locking up during the intro movie, copy the 2 d3d dlls to your SF4 dir. This will fix it.
				;
				; - If your KOF98 UM came with d3d9.dll, d3d9d.dll, or d3dx9_36.dll in its root folder, remove all these for the game to work.
				;
				; - Lastly, every PC is different, so results will vary. Try playing with sleep timers if you think the script is working too fast for your PC.
				; - Also if you have video issues or odd things are happening in game, play with vsync and try updating to the latest video card driver, or revert to an older one.
				;
				; - If you have any further issues, please consult the discussion thread at http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13627

Homura too now fast as hell though, I know theres something written somewhere about that, oh and as for it filling the whole screen point dxwnd to game.exe not the bat file

Homura too now fast as hell though, I know theres something written somewhere about that, oh and as for it filling the whole screen point dxwnd to game.exe not the bat file

Oh ok, I didn't realize I needed to "configure" anything within DXWnd. What did you do? I added GigaWing Generations and added its game.exe, but there was no real change to the behavior. Still had the extra wide version... But there were a ton of other options in there.... Do you have to set a desired resolution in there?

sucramjd · July 27, 2013

no I didn't change anything just pointed it to gigawing generations folder game.exe, then use hyperlaunchhq opened dxwnd module settings using irotate and rom to vertical

wahoobrian · July 27, 2013

Just to be clear, I was referring to the Emulator DXWnd settings, not the Module DXWnd settings.... (just to confuse matters more, both have seperate, independent dxwnd.ini files)....

Raiden III wont work keeps telling me theres a missing rom path I've checked and can't see a problem
