mdfdisc Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Just reinstalled Hyperspin 1.4 and RocketLauncher, went through all the tutorials, but I can't get my joystick and buttons to work in HyperSpin. I configure it in HyperHQ and enable Joystick, but whenever I go to launch HyperSpin the buttons are out of whack and the joystick doesn't work at all. Can anyone help me out here please? Really Appreciate it!
gigapig Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 First off welcome to the forum. Secondly, what controls are you using? I'm guessing not something like ipac. If you have definitely copied over the 1.4 update then the joystick should work but it's not perfect. Are you using analogue or digital?
mdfdisc Posted August 27, 2016 Author Posted August 27, 2016 I built a cabinet and purchased a button/joystick kit that included a Xin Mo 2 Player USB Kit. I've double-checked everything, including connections and the joystick and buttons work just fine in the games. But on the actual HyperSpin Frontend, there is no response from the joystick. Any help would be appreciated!! Also, what do you recommend for a MAME emulator? I'm using MAME64, but it seems most of my ROMS do not work. I'm just confused on the whole matching the versions and all that.
gigapig Posted August 27, 2016 Posted August 27, 2016 Lots of our members have had trouble with that joystick encoder, maybe someone has it working with 1.4 which was meant to fix the joystick bug. If there is no way to get it working then you will need to use joytokey or xpadder or you might want to try the Start up script from the downloads section. As for mame, if ROMS are not working I'll guess that you don't have a matching ROM set. If you download the latest 0.176 and your ROM set is 0.144 for instance then a lot of games won't work. You'll want to also grab a compiled version of mame which has the nag screen removed. As I right this there not not one available for 0.176 yet so try 0.175 perhaps, you can update it later when our kind members release a compiled version.
ND4SPD Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 I've been trying to get an XBox360 controller to work with the Hyperspin front-end and haven't had any luck either. The controller works fine once the games start, but in the front-end, whatever button is used for the select/start works fine... but directional controls don't work. Maybe in the next release?

Did you set it up in hyperhq? Use the hyperspin startup script or a joypad to keyboard program like xpadder or joy2key? I wouldn't count on a next release
