Cannot launch mame trough hyperspin

[fadafwet]

Hi

 

I am really new to all of this so please me kind to me

I have watch dozens of tutorials and reads dozen of guides but none of them asnwer my questions so this is why I am reaching here for help

I building an arcade with a laptop in it,

On this laptop I have done this :

Installed Mame 0.222

Installed a rom set for 0.222

I installed the latest version of hyperspin 1.5.1

I installed the latest version of Rocket Launcher 1.2.0 (and did the updates)

I set up hyperspin and rocket launcher and mame

I can run roms directly from mame

but when I try to run roms (I tested this rom from mame and it works) and emulator from hyperspin I have this error

"There was an error waiting for the window "ahk_class MAME" Please check you have the correct version emulator installed for this module followed any notes in the module and have this emulator working outside your frontend first. Also turn off Fade to see if you are hiding your problem"

 

I am really confused of what whould I do to make this frond end to work with my mame installation. I hope you can help me.

I have followed these tutorial which they says are depricated but I did not fnind anything more up-to-date and as detailed as these

Newer versions of mame need an updated module, you can find it HERE.

Hi

 

I have download the MAME.ahk in the link you provided

and replace the one in the folder

HyperSpin\Modules\MAME\MAME.ahk

 

But I still have the same error when trying to launch using hyperspin

Any idea are welcome

 

thank you very much

Should go in:

RocketLauncher/modules/

Not:

HyperSpin/modules

That is the spot for old HyperLaunch modules.

I fought this for a good long time. The hyperspin config file was looking for hyper launch. This has been replaced by rocketlanucher. I manually change the hyperspin config file to point to the rocklanucher.exe.

 

Do note, I had no problem running games from rocklanucher, hyperspin just would not run them.

 

Also make sure you get the mame emulator for 0.222 and the ahk file for 0.222.

Mame is completely different from other emulators, the game rom files change sometimes from version to version and the newest version on mame is not always the best version for your name rom set. It's kinda backwards compared to other emulators.

Hope this helps.

P.s. I put the ahk in every spot that had it XD. Always make backups before you replace a file, a simple .7z or .zip of a file before overwrite will save you should you need to undo something.

Yeah I think they mention that in the video guide

I do not how to launch the emulator from rocket launcher i'll check into that

I use the mame emulator 0.222 and I replace the ahk file with the one Spawk recommand me using but I don't know which version it's for

Yeah I user a romset 0.222 with mame version 0.222 to be sure I had less issue possible

I do a backup before replacing any file

thank you for the help
