RocketLauncher launches games, but Hyperspin Does not.

How's everyone,

 

I just installed the new Hyperspin release with Rocketlauncher a couple of days ago. I have everything pretty much figured out following SimplyAustin's instructions which are pretty much dead on. When I installed Mame and loaded the roms on rocket launcher and launch after auditing everything works fine. I have Windows 8 on the computer I bought to build the system. I ran into some issues when it updated to 8.1 so I reverted back to Windows 8.

 I do know that the rom path has to be accurate in order for Hyperspin to detect Rocketlauncher and run the rom.

 

On my computer all the files are not labeled as .ini or.exe, so all the files just have the names of the file without those at the end. If I do add the .ini or .exe everything does not work correctly.  

 

The launch path for me is A:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher, but when I used that at first it could not detect rom path. I deleted everything and replaced all of Hyperspin and now it does not do anything when I press enter to open the rom selected. I know the buttons are configured correctly since I can hit Enter and go into the different emulators on Hyperspin.

 

When I do go into the Settings to change the launch path to A:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe and try to open a Mame rom I get a message saying CAN NOT FIND A:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncherUI\Databases\MAME\MAME.xml

 

If I change the RocketLauncher file to RocketLauncher.exe then the RocketLauncherUI does not work.

 

I appreciate all the help I can get. Before I decided to write this post I exhausted all efforts to get it to worked. I followed other forum post and still nothing.

 

Thanks

Wow,

 

After all those hours of troubleshooting and doing different things it was that simple. I should of known also, makes perfect sense but you get side tracked and blind after a while of messing with it. It is working perfectly now.

 

Thank You

Ok so this is really weird... I'm now having the same issue, but the only thing I've done is copy my install from one machine to another. I've confirmed the path, plugin, etc. Still won't work. Everything launches fine from RocketLauncher, and it still works properly on the first machine. Does anyone have any ideas? My logs are below.

nevermind... I solved it. For some reason my gobal settings front-end path got reset. This is really weird. Thanks anyway!

 

Edit: ok, so here's the scoop. I've copied everything across my home network (vs using a USB drive) and for some reason Windows 10's homegroup sharing prevents me from seeing/copying the Global Bezel.ini, Global RocketLauncher.ini, and RocketLauncher.ini files. So everything was getting reset as RLUI was recreating them at "first execution". What a huge pain! I dug my USB drive out and am re-copying everything now.

Can you post your HyperSpin log? It's the log.txt file inside your HyperSpin folder.

RocketLauncher is properly connected, although you should really have it installed on the root of a drive instead of your desktop to avoid those really long file paths. For the database error follow the instructions in post #2.

Think you very much all good

Hi,

First and foremost I am a newbie and I have been researching building a cabinet for some time now, more so the programs behind the build. So I started on getting the programs installed (HS/RLUI) and all new updates. Everything works fine on RL but when I load up HS and find the game and hit enter nothing happpens. On RL general settings I do have the default front end set to the path of Hyperspin.exe and have the default plugin set to HS. I've watched countless hrs of videos read forums and I'm not the type to ask for help but I've tried everything and I'm sure it's something simple. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is my log of HS and I know I should have HS in the root of the drive

Hi,

Yes I figured it out right after I posted that I knew something was wrong with it, it just took me awhile to see it. I appreciate your help.
