spotUP Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Hi! When enjoying Hyperspin and playing a bunch of games you always run into a lot of crap games that you never want to see again. Wouldn't it be really handy to be able to hide games in the list with a button combo? They could go to a Disabled category or something and if you change your mind you just go into the disabled list and activate it again with the same button combo.
gigapig Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Hi SpotUP welcome to the forum. Sounds like a good idea, or you could just jump straight into your favourites folder and never go back or even trim the xml with Hypertools.
Styphelus Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 What I do is have the games display by wheel art availability in HyperHQ and just move those particular wheels to a different folder.
Fromlostdays Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Yep. Just take the wheel art out of the wheel folder and go into hyperHQ and set it to display "wheel only". Alternately, you can just edit them out the xml. It would be a pain I'd imagine to have this as part of the gui, so I can see why they left it out, but these two methods should be everything you need. Walter:beerglass:
spotUP Posted October 14, 2014 Author Posted October 14, 2014 Yea, that is a solution i guess, but what happens when i sync the art with hypersync? All games are back!! O_O I like the idea of browsing games by system so having all systems mixed in a favourite menu is not a good enough solution for me. :/
jviegas Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Hi everyone. I had already thought in something like that. I think a good idea is to have some combo button like "shift + Del" or "ctrl + Del" to delete the rom. Imagine that you have a full collection but when you start wheeling and playing around you decided that you don't want to have that game anymore in your collection. So in Hyperspin when you are wheeling all you have to do is press a combo button so next time you enter on that wheel the game is gone. This should work only on sub-menus, I mean this should't work on Main menu. Instead of delete the roms directly, it could go to a Backup folder or something like that so if you delete it accidently you can always recover it. Of course you can always go to the Roms folder and delete the games unwanted (I think that right now this is the only way) but thats a manual process, I'm suggesting a automatic and more funtional one. Do you think this function can by add to next release? Best regards jviegas
brolly Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 This feature was planned for HS2.0, thus the enabled tag you see in the XML files which is useless for HS1. So yeah don't hold your breath for this and better use some workarounds as suggested.
spotUP Posted October 16, 2014 Author Posted October 16, 2014 Aha, nice to hear. What's the status on HS2? Any ETA?
