Roma do you see this? Can it be fixed? I'm going to try it tonight

Roma do you see this? Can it be fixed? I'm going to try it tonight

yes , but i use an old version of hyperlaunch that placed at root of hyperspin directory , i don't know if the new versions of hyperlaunch can be placed on any folder that user want or just HyperLaunch\ hyperlaunch.exe.

can somebody knows the answer ?

Sorry but i'm not interested to test now the new version of hyperlaunch, and i need to know that in order to fix it...

[arshesney]

No dice, can't get the latest version to work, if I copy hyperlaunch.exe in the root hyperspin folder the Create Databases hangs around 10%, if I remove the copied hyperlaunch.exe, hypersearch complains that the ini is corrupted.

[r0man0]

Ok , i've fixed the path for hyperlaunch to be at root or in HyperLaunch\ of hyperspin folder.

Please tell me if it solve the problem.

here is the fixed HyperSearch.exe :

U should go to hyperlaunch 2 it's amazing and soooo much better. RocketLauncher is in beta, has some bugs but I'd be surprised if many folks were on hyperlaunch 1 still considering all the amazing features and it just works better.

Back to the question at hand though, hyperlaunch needs to be in this folder, it shouldn't move or be renamed.. Can this happen?

..hyperspin/hyperlaunch/hyperlaunch.exe

Can't wait to test this. Oh also I think hypersearch needs to be able to be saved anywhere since it will act as an emulator withing hyperhq and ran as an exe. Good luck, looking fwd to trying it

The fixed .exe does not need hyperlaunch.exe in the main hyperspin folder, now it works as expected even with hyperlaunch beta.

Regarding the create database issuse it was because of some comments in one of the xml files, when i deleted them the database was created succesfully.

Thank you

edit:

another minor issue: the fullscreen mode is set to 800x600 which messes up all the other open windows, is there any option to set the fullscreen resolution?

Ok , also if possible i would like to see your xml file or a part of this to know how to increase compatibility with non-conventional xml-list.

About screen resolution , for the moment it will only be available for 800*600 , others resolutions will be added later.

I will try to fix problem with open Windows tomorow and if possible update main post.

the package have been updated with the fixed hyperlaunch path at same adress :

Hello, I also get a hang when I load the exe. I'd say it's stuck on 25% in creating a database. My main menu xml is clean without comments. Within my database folder in each system folder, I may have a folder named old. Do you think the sub folders would mess it up? I also have a lot of genre xmls

Hi , thank you for testing HyperSearch , HyperSearch don't use xml genre list to create database , just the main list (atari 2600.xml , amiga.xml .... that are placed in the same name folder and also on the databases folder)

If your database creating stay around 25% , not sure but maybe that could be one of your main list xml that is not compatible , but to know witch one , i have to check all of them...

For this just send me all your main list xml or if you prefer a part of them from the header to the first game of each list

I'll hope that you don't have too many systems, and also find a solution for you.

Here is the xml that was blocking the database creation:

Thank you arshesney for your xml , the problem of this xml was the info lines like <!-- information --> , i don't use this kind of information for my xml

For better compatibility , i've made database creating skip those lines not really needed for hypersearch & hyperspin , i've also fixed the problem of Windows placement with screen changing resolution.

You can re-add your xml ,delete your old Hypersearchdatabase.dat file and retry again, with this new fixed HyperSearch , it will be ok for you :

http://hypermachine.free.fr/HyperSearch-fixed-v2.zip

Ninja2bceen : try also this new fixed hypersearch , maybe it was the same problem than arshesney.

edit : I've updated main post with new version package to download and instructions

[ninja2bceen]

i'll be honest, I'm becoming a little frustrated.

when I loaded the exe, I was able to select everything except within the lang dropdown I can't select anything other than English (fortunately I can speak that lang ;-* also I can't select anything from the list field dropdown, it just keeps displaying item list when you try and select from the dropdown. So my work around was to use an old version of hypersearch to create a ini file, then override the old hypersearch with this new version. I fired the new version up and I still get the hang at the same old place. I'm on windows 7 64 bit if that means anything

Can you create a log file to see whats making the hang happen? I'm not familiar nor comfy with the software mentioned above to figure out where the hang is. I will say though that my xml files don't have any notes in them. They all follow this format below and the main menu looks like the below as well

hi , it seems to be more difficult for you than i expect , i understand you're worried about that.

Hypersearch is a beta version and in order to increase compatibility your help is really usefull at this part of development.

For the moment , no log file will be added. But with your comments i can define and change the problem.

If you're still ok to test HyperSearch , download this new Hypersearch fixed executable :

HyperSearch-fixed-v3.zip

then delete Hypersearch.ini , and replace old HyperSearch.exe with the fixed one.

Don't get me wrong, I really want this to work! I used the new file but it continues to hang at maybe 10% loading the databases now.

Can you tell us exactly how this is working so I can troubleshoot? I have no idea what to tell you in terms of fixing the hang. The gui works now without error prior to getting to the loading database

My root is on an external hard drive, could it be you only allow for c?

Having a log file of simply just saying aae database found would be helpful so I can see where the hang is. What else do u need from me as this post probably isn't very helpful for you

Well , your hard drive installation can be witch one you want , doesn't matter.

For the rest , i've PM you in order to not flood forum with all your xml.

[ninja2bceen]

Testing.... Please fix these and thanks!

You can't click with your mouse in both the fields, tab works though

If you click all genre, all system, or all years to uncheck the checkbox you see more options appear but they aren't with a white background so it's hard to see the options

When I click all favorites, it shows no results found, try a different keyword or options. I want this button to crest a favorites wheel. Basically I sant it to look at all my favorites from my system and create one ultimate favorites wheel. Outside of this request, how do you use the show all favorites button now?

When I try and start a game from the results wheel, the emulator doesn't start or the game doesn't run, it just stays on the theme display. Notes that in hyperhq I have Pc game enabled and executionis set to normal

When you select go a pop up comes. I see a chech box for select to select your games. Get rid of the check box to display games and just by default display it

I want this on a complete hyperspin setup, therefore I don't like and I want to hide the param. Button and donate button on the digital keyboard. I don't want things to leave this screen. Can you put a donate link at the beginning of this post instead? I think most hyperspinners here will agree that it takes away from the arcade feel

When you create a genre aka custom wheel, the game themes stick however the MP4 /flv and or png doesn't display in the video display within the theme. It's because the naming convention in the video folder of hypersearch is not correct. I'm finding this to sometimes work. So far I think the only ones that does display videos are Nintendo and Nintendo 64 and Super Nintendo and 3d0 and Atari jaguar and atari 2600 and atari 7800 and mame and swag game gear and sega genesis and sega master system and Atari Lynx and nec turbographix 16 and sega cd and sega dreamcasts and could be others. Some systems did work

When you are selecting games for a new wheel, I see a list of games, it would be nice to have two columns here. One for the game name and one for the system name corresponding to the game. This is particularly helpful when you search all systems

within the result genre results, and in the resultant genre xml, I see at the top hypersearch, your name and !!!!hypersearch!!!! As part of the wheel. I tried to delete it but it crashes the result genre wheel and hyperspin. If I add the info back to the result xml things work great but I'd like to not have that random item in the result wheel

What's the option add do? How is that different from edit?

When you select save in the dropdown I see a outline of an invisible dropdown that I can't click. I can tab to it but can't see what I type

When selecting games, I sort of want to press and hold shift to highlight multiples quickly. Clicking each one works though!

I'd like to use xpadder with this aka need to be able to run this through hyperlaunch within hyperhq I think. How can I do that?

I had created a Zelda wheel then I had to edit it. When I did it actually deleted the wheel

I created multiple wheels but they are not in alphabetical order

Alphabetize games in wheel by system the by name

[r0man0]

You can't click with your mouse in both the fields, tab works though

Left Click works well, but right click works not verywell because of Hypersearch status Windows alwaysontop --> not fixed

If you click all genre, all system, or all years to uncheck the checkbox you see more options appear but they aren't with a white background so it's hard to see the options

Color white was the problem --> fixed

When I click all favorites, it shows no results found, try a different keyword or options. I want this button to crest a favorites wheel. Basically I sant it to look at all my favorites from my system and create one ultimate favorites wheel. Outside of this request, how do you use the show all favorites button now?

Button All favorites checks all your favorites.txt on every systems and also on hypersearch , if you plan to save them on a genre list , select "save" before.

When I try and start a game from the results wheel, the emulator doesn't start or the game doesn't run, it just stays on the theme display. Notes that in hyperhq I have Pc game enabled and executionis set to normal?

Problem was the spaces on romName , space are replaced with another symbol --> fixed

When you select go a pop up comes. I see a chech box for select to select your games. Get rid of the check box to display games and just by default display it?

I prefer let this checkbox before copying results , because if there is too many results you can cancel or edit them ,instead of abord copying by exiting hyperspin then relaunch.

I want this on a complete hyperspin setup, therefore I don't like and I want to hide the param. Button and donate button on the digital keyboard. I don't want things to leave this screen. Can you put a donate link at the beginning of this post instead? I think most hyperspinners here will agree that it takes away from the arcade feel

Ok , now donate link button is on options panel , and an option key/button to open option panel can be defined. --> fixed

Some systems did work

I'm not sure but hypersearch use the option "Use Parent vids and themes" , you need to check this option.

When you are selecting games for a new wheel, I see a list of games, it would be nice to have two columns here. One for the game name and one for the system name corresponding to the game. This is particularly helpful when you search all systems

Ok , now you can select , sort and edit as you want : game's name , description , years , genre , clones .... --> fixed

within the result genre results, and in the resultant genre xml, I see at the top hypersearch, your name and !!!!hypersearch!!!! As part of the wheel. I tried to delete it but it crashes the result genre wheel and hyperspin. If I add the info back to the result xml things work great but I'd like to not have that random item in the result wheel

Ok , now the hypersearch's wheel will not appears on genre results , to relaunch hypersearch just come back to main wheel. --> fixed

What's the option add do? How is that different from edit?

Option "Add" is to add new results to an existing list genre , "Edit" can be used to change game's list order and/or delete games.

When you select save in the dropdown I see a outline of an invisible dropdown that I can't click. I can tab to it but can't see what I type

When you select "Save" a field appears , where you have to enter the name to use for the genre saved list. This field still appears when selecting another option , now --> fixed

When selecting games, I sort of want to press and hold shift to highlight multiples quickly. Clicking each one works though!

Well , now it is possible , i've added 2 more mapped buttons in order to emulate Ctrl+Click Left and Shift+Click Left with joystick --> fixed

I'd like to use xpadder with this aka need to be able to run this through hyperlaunch within hyperhq I think. How can I do that?

I use it also , that's why i've added in option panel program selection with parameters to launch on Hypersearch start and exit. For example :

select the c:\program files\xpadder\xpadder.exe program , and type on param. the profil to launch : "c:\program files\xpadder\HyperSearch.xpadderprofile"

I had created a Zelda wheel then I had to edit it. When I did it actually deleted the wheel

"Edit" function have been updated , this problem don't seem existing. --> fixed

I created multiple wheels but they are not in alphabetical order

Genre list are now in alphabetical order. --> fixed

Alphabetize games in wheel by system the by name

Use "Edit" to sort games by alphabetical order by genre,description,year,game's name,manufacturer,clone...

Here is the link for the Hypersearch v9.4 fixed (you need to delete Hypersearch.ini) :

Thanks for your help,

[ninja2bceen]

Thanks I'll try and test tonight

Something I don't think I saw was when you create a genre and you select games currently it just shows names of games. Can we get a second column in this list to display the system name so that we can distinguish what games are what if there are similar names across multiple systems before. Adding it tot the wheel?

[r0man0]

Yes with this version it is possible.

[ninja2bceen]

Amazing friend, I'll test as soon as able

[ninja2bceen]

Great improvements. Things that are still busted

Unable to launch any game from the created wheels.

When I click add all favorites I get an error saying change my criteria. I want to compile all my favorites from all my systems into one wheel. How do I do that?

Videos as previously stated don't display for the systems mentioned above. Hyperhq looks fine. I'm finding this to sometimes work. So far I think the only ones that does NOT display videos are Nintendo and Nintendo 64 and Super Nintendo and 3d0 and Atari jaguar and atari 2600 and atari 7800 and mame and game gear and sega genesis and sega master system and Atari Lynx and nec turbographix 16 and sega cd and sega dreamcasts and could be others. The videos just arnt displaying in the video folder.

When I created a new wheel called teenage mutant ninja turtles the wheel got created but the wheel art is missing for all games and themes and videos are not displaying. Other wheels are fine maybe the name is too long?

How do I utilize xpadder? I get you want my to add xpadder exe to start up option here but how do I get it to load a custom control setting when this runs as an executable from hyperspin and not through hyperlaunch. How do you get the huperspin profile to come back after you close hyperseach

I'd like to add multiple system wheel into one. For example, all handheld games. I think you should be able to search amd add with keywords as blank and allow to select your systems. If no keywords then by default display complete wheel

I've got the same problem when i search for tmnt , i've recompiled exe , and this error has disapeared , maybe was the same for video -> need to test new version fixed

For xpadder :

to load a profile when hypersearch start :

select xpadder.exe then on param : type "Fullpathofprofile\nameOfYourProfile.xpadderprofile" ---> don't forget the " "

same thing to launch a profile on exit.

The only limit for search result is at least 1 filter activated (game keyword or manufacterer keyword or year or genre or system) . that will give you a maximum of possibility.

For favorites , you need at least 1 favorite game added to any system in a file placed on databases\%systemname%\favorites.txt ,

if you save your favorites in other place they will not be recognized.

if videos problem persist , send me your hyperspin settings folder.
