I cant choose another game at all.. hit enter or in my case Player 1 button.. nothing... keyboard, joys etc.. same result... Exit HS, then its fine. Anyone ever see this? Thanx in advance guys.

Spawk Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Sounds like a classic "focus" issue. Next time try clicking with a mouse somewhere and see if the controls become responsive again. RocketLauncher has a setting called "Restore FE and click" that may help if this is the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firebat138 Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 ohhh ok, im not using Rocket Launcher, just hyperspin.. what the advantage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
32assassin Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 think of it this way Hyperspin is just a GUI , a pretty display that lists all your games Rocket Launcher : Launches your games, Closes your games. if this is a hand me down system (you got it from someone else) you might be running HyperLaunch2.0 or (Hyperlaunch3.0 ----> renamed to Rocket launcher when it started supporting multiple Front Ends) Without Rocketlauncher or an older version your Hyperspin set it will not launch any of your games.

Firebat138 Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 EDit... Well not an edit. lol I just changed the setting from Hyperlaunch to Normal. I am really only using it to play mame and dont have all the other emulators and files installed anymore.. I just got tired of using regular mame to launch games. lol I have been out of the scene for a long time, but now im back. I appreciate all your help and if Rocket Launcher is the new thing, im in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
32assassin Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 if you have a 12 year old set up then you are worse off, you more then likely have Hyperlaunch1.0 in witch case you have to compile a new Hotkey based module when ever you add a new emulator. I doubt their is more then a handful of people using this system. If you open HyperHQ and change the launch option from Hyperlaunch to Normal. The majority of emulators will not work. MAME is the exception to the rule given that its a command line emulator. add something like this to a batch file and a mame game will load "mame.exe" "gamename" the majority of emulators need scripted commands to load and to do a proper exit. this is why you need modules usedby RL or HL. But if you are only using MAME , it looks like you solved your problem. and FYI, MAME and MESS have merged. if you want to run other systems supported by (MESS) the new MAME. Consider using that version of MAME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
