Bit of a strange one

I've everything setup and my MAME roms launch within Hyperlaunch.

Howerever, when Im in Hyperspin and select a game from the wheel it doesn't launch the emulator to play the ROM.

Any idea where I'm going wrong??

If you're still using HyperLaunch your going to want to upgrade to the latest RocketLauncher.

Once I rebooted the cab and launched Hyperspin it played my first game "88 Games" without issue.

However, when i exited out of the emulator, back into Hyperspin, it wouldn't launch another game.

Go into your Settings.ini and change your RocketLauncher path accordingly:

[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=Creatronic Mega Duck
Hyperlaunch_Path=B:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe

My Hyperspin/Settings/system.ini reads:

 

[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=C:\Users\Arcade\Desktop\Rocket Launcher\RocketLauncher.exe

For whatever reason, your HyperSpin is using a different Settings.ini. Do you have multiple installs on your computer?

Are you on latest HS version? Even if you are you can try just re-extracting the HS install over your current setup. Make a backup of the important stuff it'll overwrite though like Settings.ini just in case.

Also, try tunning HS and RL in Run as Adminstrator from Compatibility.

Still re-install your HyperSpin, as your current one isn't talking to its own settings file. Or run as administrator and see if that helps. But right now the path in your settings.ini is being ignored. Backup the files that'll be overwritten and re-extract HS over your current setup.

Uhhhh not at rig to check but just open the rar up before you extract and see. Actually, better idea, just open the rar and manually only exract the stuff that goes in the HyperSpin root directory, like the EXE and stuff. Make life easier for you.

I've upgraded first to make sure i actually was on the latest.

Now when i launch Mame Roms I get:

Cannot find C:\Users\Arcade\Desktop\RocketlauncherUI\Databases\MAME\MAME.xml

Posted

Few weeks ago

I pointed Rocketlauncher to the Hyperspin.exe file and that solved the xml issue and I can now launch other games without issue!

Thanks for the help
