I have it running using Steem. I could not get Hatari working and Steem was easy, so I chose that one.

Some of the games do not boot directly to the game. Some you have to double-click the icon to start them. But the game icon should be on the screen when it boots:

Also, launch the emulator and go to the Machine Options. Be sure the Monitor is set to Colour (Low/Med Resolution):

If this does not resolve the issue, please post your HyperLaunch log as described in this post:

I just seem to get the ST desktop. I think its something to do with the file type?

Could be.

If your roms are zipped, be sure and enable 7z in HLHQ. What are the file extensions you are using (inside the zip files)?

Thanks,

My roms zipped all works in HyperLaunchHQ odd game goes to atria st desktop the only thing now is the joystick I have xbox controller but only allows 1 fire button I had this prob when I tried Amiga years ago that is my next emu for hyperspin. Games like Turrican (1990)(Rainbow Arts) think only way to play is keyboard and joystick unless any one no of a other setting

You'll have to use xpadder or joy2key to assign controller buttons to different keys for each game that needs more than just the fire button, which will be a right pain to sort out. Probably easier to just have a small keyboard handy.

This reminds me that I spent many a happy hour playing Simulcra with one hand on the joystick and the other poised over the function keys.

Mine are in .ipf format. I think they need to be in .st format to work ok? I have .st type games too but they are not labeled correctly :(

ipf should work just fine. Most of mine are .st, but I do have some that are .ipf and they work also. Just be sure and add that extension in your GLOBAL Emulator settings.
