Abqshark Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Hyperspin was working fine, then I think I tried to start a bios file or something like that on my wheel and whammo, I can't enter any game now. This is for MAME. I can enter and exit a wheel with the keys I set (enter) and (esc), but not a game. Any idea of how I broke hyperspin? I'm not sure what log to post on here for help. I read something about a fade in error, might that have something to do with it? Thanks for any help or advice you can give.
danwelsh Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 I'm not a pro at HS yet but have you gone back into RL and checked if your games load from there? I'm lovin my arcade
danwelsh Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 When I change any settings I just do one change, test it and then either revert back or keep the new settings. A big mistake I made when I first started was changing a bunch of stuff at once, then I was unsure what was throwing the error..... I'm lovin my arcade
Abqshark Posted July 3, 2016 Author Posted July 3, 2016 I'm not a pro at HS yet but have you gone back into RL and checked if your games load from there? They run fine from RocketLauncher.
danwelsh Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 I would check what the fade is set at in RL settings.... I'm at work and can't remember which tab it is I'm lovin my arcade
danwelsh Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Run it again and copy the error down exactly as it is and post it here I'm lovin my arcade
Abqshark Posted July 3, 2016 Author Posted July 3, 2016 Here is a run through trying to get ms. pacman to run. HS starts fine, I go into the mame wheel, but nothing happens when I try to start Ms. Pacman, so I exit out of HS.

danwelsh Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Are you using the latest rocketlauncher?..... It's looking like there's something wrong with HS path to your RL exe I'm lovin my arcade
danwelsh Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Check over your settings in hyperhq for the mame wheel, make sure all your paths are correct I'm lovin my arcade
Abqshark Posted July 3, 2016 Author Posted July 3, 2016 Yout log shows that the Hyperlaunch_path in your HyperSpin/Settings/Settings.ini is incorrect, so it reverts to using HyperLaunch. Make sure that the Hyperlaunch_path is pointing to your RocketLauncher.exe and you don't have any typos. I think my settings.ini file is correct, although I was curious about that hyperlaunch error my self. Here the top part of my settings.ini Main] Menu_Mode=multi Single_Mode_Name=MAME Enable_Exit_Menu=true Enable_Exit=true Exit_Default=yes Exit_Action=exit Version=1.0.0.0 Last_System=MAME Hyperlaunch_Path=F:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe\
Abqshark Posted July 3, 2016 Author Posted July 3, 2016 I figured it out. As I suspected it had something to do with trying to start the bios file as a game. It was remembering the last game I tried to start and was somehow stuck on that. I went into HyperHQ and went to Wheel Settings>MAME Wheel> Navigation/Themes tab> Wheel Entrance Options and unchecked the "Return to last game" box. It was caught in some kind of loop trying to start that Bios file as a game. Thanks for all your suggestions, as going through the things you mentioned helped me narrow down what was wrong.
Abqshark Posted July 4, 2016 Author Posted July 4, 2016 You shouldn't have that extra backslash at the end. If you do and it's launching games then chances are it's using HyperLaunch and not RocketLauncher. Okay, I'll change that. Thanks for the tip.
