badboo Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hi, I was trying my Sega Dreamcast collection last night and when I load a game through Rocketlauncher, it runs fine, but when I load the game (or any dreamcast game) through hyperspin, it runs in window mode and the window is hidden behind the bezel, so I have to press alt+enter to set to full screen but it goes over the bezel. Also when I want to exit a game, the esc key doesn't exit the game.... again, when is through rocketlauncher everything is fine. I am at the office, so I don't know if a log is needed to submit now. P.S. I have had running my sega dreamcast system for almost 2 years and never had this issue before so I was pulling my hair, last night, trying to figure it out A different question to the topic, what emulator do you guys prefer to use for dreamcast? just in case I have to use a plan B.

badboo Posted April 26, 2017 Author Share Posted April 26, 2017 Well, I had to switch to NullDC. Is not my favorite but I am not getting that annoying windowed mode on hypespin. The only thing I am not getting to work well is the reshade on NullDC. I read it is something related to the Z-buffer but still not working.

Metalzoic Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 You might want to tell people what version of DeMul you're using etc... It works fine here (Win 10, latest updates, not sure what demul version), but I don't run Dreamcast games at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofers Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Can anyone here use bezels in the new version of Demul mine stays in the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougan78 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 That is not surprising, they probably changed the window name a little bit. You will probably need to update the module with the new window name. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badboo Posted October 27, 2017 Author Share Posted October 27, 2017 @MetalzoicI will check but I think it is one of the latest ones. I am using win10 too, RL updated as well. I don't know the reason but it was working for a long time since I started using hyperspin, then one day just started this issue. As far as I remember, I didn't change anything to the module. @goofersyou mean the Demul screen goes behind the bezel? because that is what is going on with me. It is pretty much the issue exposed on the RL forum: http://www.rlauncher.com/forum/showthread.php?1638-DEMUL-Full-screen-AHK-script-help I asked over there too, but I think is not very active there. I tried using NullDC but now is crashing, anyway I don't like that emulator, I prefer Demul but I don't know why it goes behind the bezel, unless I press ALT+Enter then it shows up over the bezel. If I run from RL directly, it works perfectly. I don't know what is the problem with hyperspin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffin518 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Yeah I have no issues on the latest version of DEmul. Maybe something else is going on. Bezels work as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badboo Posted October 28, 2017 Author Share Posted October 28, 2017 I just updated the demul version to build date OCT/2017 and still the same I even deactivated the bezel and yes, it goes fullscreen and seems to be ok, but when I try to exit, I have to do ctrl+alt+del to close emulator What I can tell is a conflict with the hyperspin frontend, because when I run it on RL only, it works well.

goofers Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Strange eh I gave up with HS and ended up just using RL to boot games, which defeats the purpose of having HS it's needing a good update starting to get annoying now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something else is going on, then... HS really has nothing to do with RL. If it works in RLUI it should work just fine when launching via HS.

I feel that way too. It is so annoying. The weird thing is it use to work properly for a long time and suddenly this happens and I have tried whatever I can to fix it.

Yes, you are right, except in this case for me (or a few people). I think some of the HS settings files may be corrupted (due to what I mentioned above), but I don't know which one would be.

goofers Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 It worked for me too then all of a sudden this, no support over at RL anymore either not that there ever was any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badboo Posted October 29, 2017 Author Share Posted October 29, 2017 Yeah, this is frustrating. I will keep trying to fix it. If I find a solution, I will post it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badboo Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 Thanks for your comment @agent47, I see that this case could be considered almost as isolated, as there seem to be only a few people with this. It is not the end of the world, of course, it still works somehow. I see if I find a way to leave as before, maybe deleting and creating some setting files for the Sega Dreamcast, as I believe its files have been corrupted.

Dabil Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Isn't demul a Retroarch core? Probably would work a lot better through retroarch. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badboo Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 I think it is, but I don't find retroarch that good with 3D games, albeit I love Retroarch. I will check how they are doing with that part though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badboo Posted December 9, 2017 Author Share Posted December 9, 2017 ok... so I just installed the latest Demul (from Nov/2017) and now it is working fine.... my god, what a headache, and I never found out what it was. I hope it doesn't mess up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tancrede987 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Hi, I have this issue with the nov/2017 version. It works fine with RLUI but it stays in windowed mode and lose focus with HS. I don't use any bezels or whatsoever. I tried editing the .ahk file by adding a command ( KeyUtils.Send("!{Enter}") ), it works, Demul goes to fullscreen with HS (and so, switchs to windowed with RL) but HS stills have the focus. I have to manually catch the focus. edit:problem solved. I have just increased value at line 449 in the .ahk file : TimerUtils.Sleep(1000) to TimerUtils.Sleep(2500), also KeyUtils.Send("!{Enter}") is no longer required for switching to fullscreen.

badboo Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 Oh, I guess my comment was deleted on the previous outage. Well, if I remember what I said is that I built a new PC for the Arcade cabinet I am working on. If I am not wrong, I tried Demul though hyperspin and it was working well on a fresh installed windows 10. So if that happens again, I will come back to this coment.

fire10 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Seems to have done this again with the latest demul :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmbouth Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I solved the problem buy making the file "gpuDX11.ini" Read-Only !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honosuseri Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Not tried it myself yet as predominantly I'm on Android with the Shield TV but... On PC, RetroArch has a Reicast core for Dreamcast and Naomi. Atomiswave games converted to Naomi work with it too. Might be worth you guys checking it out if you're having issues with demul and nulldc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
