[rd7281]

ok hi, so i go to download hyperspin and i notice that the file page says its broken (because broken lol). i tried to download and install it anyway but am having no luck getting it to run.  what the deal is the file really broken or what?   thanks RD

Not sure, but 1.3.3 is the old version so maybe they removed it.

Did you try the 1.4 link or Gigapigs "HyperSpin + 40 systems" download?

Although you may need to me a Platinum member for that one.

hey thanks for actually checking it out. .    i personally never really had an issue dl-ing it. getting it to run on my pc was my issue, so i was just wondering. no huge surprise though as my pc is made of old, and suck.  i did (finally) get it to install and run though.  

 

i read a tutorial, watched a couple simply austin vids. and im muddling my way through quite nicely now. the issue im now stuck on is hyperspin will not find rocketlauncher.exe no matter how many times i change and save the path in hyperspin's settings.ini according to the log it just keeps following the old path to hyperlaunch.exe like i never even even touched the file.    i know it must be something small ill missing but still      any ideas while im muddling here?

 

obligatory no idea what im doing log post

THAT WAS IT!  i somehow goofed and patched the .exe with another copy of 1.3!  not really surprising considering how many times i downloaded and unzipped both files. but still I WOULD HAVE NEVER FOUND IT.  thanks for saving me a couple days frustration. the nes game loads now! its loading in a jnes window on top of the still visible hyperspin, but at least its progress! probably jnes isnt an ideal emu for hyperspin or a rocketlauncher setting or something. ill try to give myself a couple days to fix it before i come back crying for help.
