Hi Guys, Sorry if this is old news. When I highlight Asteroids theme in the Arcade Classics menu, I get a black screen. Can you please advise on fix for this and any other themes/games this happens to? I believe I am running the latest version of Hyperspin. Thank you in advance!!!

This issue has been fixed a long time ago. It's because the new hyperspin for some reason decided it doesn't like the flag or strobe animations. Goto HyperSpin\Media\Mame\Themes open up the zip file and edit the theme xml file inside, just replace flag or strobe with fade.

If the issue has been fixed, then why is it still on the FTP in Gold Downloads in a broken state that will crash every newbie install it runs on?

Btw, there is no reference to flag or strobe in the xml file, and it still crashes. Fortunately, there is a fixed theme linked in this thread: http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?23368-Asteroids-crashes-HS&highlight=asteroids

OK. This doesn't work. However, here is what *DID* for me. Goto HyperSpin\Media\Mame\Themes then rename the asteroid.zip file. Worked like a champ!
