[TheChopman]

Guys, It's been asked a bazillion times I'm sure...but... I am able to launch roms from Rocketlauncher but cannot from Hyperspin. When I press enter to keyboard to launch the game nothing happens. Can someone help me please. Below in an extract of my log file:

You are still using hyperlaunch, update the path to RL in 

Hyperspin/Settings/Settings.ini

Hi Spawk,

The settings already have the correct path to RL:

[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=Sega Genesis
Hyperlaunch_Path=E:\Hyperspin\RocketLauncher.exe

Just cannot work it out, I'm sure its something simple.

I am away from home atm but there should be a "default frontend" or something option in RLUI. Make sure HS is selected.

Tip: its not the one with default and active profile. There is another one under general settings.

Ah... well its clearly not finding RL and still using hyperlaunch.

You have your RL folder inside HS folder??? I know hyperlaunch is usually there but RL is ideally setup in its own folder now.

Just beat me to it Spawk. That path does't seem correct, if it is you will probably have more problems to deal with.

As Spawk advised be sure RL is in its own folder so you don't have settings conflicts.

I bet you are copying simply waffle on how to set this up

As said you should have it outside of hyperspin, if you are copying his waffle, also hyperspin should be in it's own directory so

e:\Hyperspin\RocketLaucher\RocketLaucher.exe

If you have moved the exe file, rather than using a short cut rocket launcher will not know where the file is, even a short cut can be dodgy, as that is a different file extension.

Also you have the following

11:55:11 PM |  Launcher Command Line is: E:\Hyperspin\Hyperspin\HyperLaunch.exe "Sega Genesis" "Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle (USA)"

You shouldn't have hyperspin\hyperspin your directories are all wrong.

Hope this helps.
