HyperSpin/RocketLauncher Questions

[jasynergy]

I have just recently setup HyperSpin/RocketLauncher on my PC following a few of Simply Austin's YouTube videos.

I have been able to wrap my head around quite a bit of the file structure and setting in HyperHQ/RocketLauncher however, I've hit a few road blocks and I want to start out by clarifying one detail.


In RockeLauncher under the General Settings tab, on the RocketLauncher tab, under Paths, what should the Default Frontend Path be? Also in the same section, under base settings what should the Default Plugin be?

I ask because in one of Austin's videos it directed to set them to RocketLauncher and in another it directed to set them to HyperSpin. I haven't noticed a difference between the two settings however I'm having other issues and want to ensure this is not the cause of everything.
 

 

For reference some my current (related) settings are:

HyperSpin - Settings.ini
D:\HyperSpin\Settings\Settings.ini is configured for Hyperlaunch_Path=D:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe

RocketLauncher
Default Frontend Path - D:\HyperSpin\HyperSpin.exe
Default Plugin - HyperSpin

Thanks for the quick response.

I'm trying to figure a few things out including troubleshooting bezels, fades and genres however I'll try and do a bit more research first.

Very confusing all these different conflicting tutorials around.

Don't forget we have an ever growing tutorial section.

The RocketLauncher wiki here would be a good place to read up on that stuff since fades and bezels are RL features.

 

Thanks, I'm pretty sure you just resolved my issue. Austins video directed to create bezel and fade folders in the HyperSpin directory and they were not being recognized. I was wondering why the RocketLauncher directory already had bezel and fade folders when I was being directed to put them in the HyperSpin directory.

I just found them last night. Now I want to try a fresh build on a recently formatted drive.

Will installing HyperSpin / RocketLauncher / Emulators (primarily RetroArch) on a 2nd drive (E:) cause any conflicts with them already being installed on a the first drive (D:)?

I really liked how Austin's videos had a download for RetroArch that was already configured however, I'd like to install the most recent version and learn a bit more about configuring it myself. I mainly like (from my understanding) that is can have different configurations for each system.
