Hi,

New to HS, and am having a weird problem. Have been customizing and tweaking my setup (HS > RL > RetroArch), when suddenly HS won't launch games anymore :/ The games work fine when I launch them from RocketLauncherUI.exe (using mame2003_libretro),  but when I try from HS, it just doesn't do anything when I select a game!

The log suggests that my RocketLauncher integration settings are ok?

Your rocket launcher path seems fine, have a look and see if your modules are setup correctly in rocketlauncherUI and check your frontends under rockertlauncherUI to see if you have the correct plugin

Could it be that Rocketlauncher is still running in the sys tray and you have not rebooted.

Yeah I thought that too, but still no fix after rebooting :/

I've included screenshots of the main config windows - any more places to check? Would pasting the RocketLauncherUI log be of any use?

Run hyperspin as admin?

I've noticed you make this suggestion on another thread, is it just to rule something out or another reason for doing so?

I recently set Hyperspin to run as admin but once you do so you need to set everything else related as admin which just became annoying. Eventually I reset everything back as it did not help in my case.

If rocket launcher is set to run as admin or user doesn't have privileges to run the emulator... nothing happens

Ok cool. He or someone else would have to have set RL to admin though.

Yeah or he downloaded an emulator that didn't have the permissions set correctly, or put it in a location where admin rights is required. (this happens sometimes)
