src720 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Hello all, I am trying to set up ColecoVision on HyperSpin using MESS (MESSUI). I can configure MESSUI to play Coleco games independent of HyperSpin, but when I point to the messui.exe emulator in HS (using HQ) and try to load a game, I get the following message "Could Not Find Your Emulator/Application: R:\arcade\emulators\mess\mess64.exe. The path in the error is correct, but the executable is not. I checked the Coleco .ini file and the executable and path are fine there. I am not sure where it is referencing "mess64.exe". Thinking that maybe the UI version is not compatible, I downloaded the command line version, with the same results. I have attached a screenshot of my configuration in HQ. Am I doing something wrong here, is there a compatibility issue? Interestingly, if I select "Normal" under Emulator > Execution, the games in the wheel aren't selectable, they're just appear faded, and trying to select them doesn't trigger the error... not sure if that matters, but just a side note. Another issue (see screenshots below)... I notice that when I select Roms Only in HQ, my games don't show up on the wheel. By not show up, I mean that when I select ColecoVision as my system, it bumps me back to the system select with no games displayed. I used this option before in MAME to only show games I have, but I am not sure why it's giving me a problem here. I double checked that my roms path is correct in HQ, any thoughts? Thank you all.

Spawk Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 A couple of things here: If you want to use the executable path in HQ then you must set to "Normal" otherwise it will ignore what you put here and use hyperlaunch. HyperLaunch itself is very old and has now branched off to it's own application : "RocketLauncher". I highly suggest you upgrade to it. The rompath is still needed if you want to use the "roms only" filter. The problem is probably just the "space" in the path. You could try putting the entire path in quotes ""... or just remove the space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
src720 Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 Thank you. I actually have Rocket Launcher UI and can play my Coleco games from it. Do I need RL and HyperHQ to get those games to play in HyperSpin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spawk Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 If games play from RLUI then it should be exactly the same in HS. Check the settings in this post to make sure HS/RL are connected properly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
