problems with mame

[terminator2k2]

Hi there ive set up mame 0.59 i think it is , and it worked fine, but this is the 2nd time this has happend. Hyperspin or mame will not see the roms or will not unzip the roms. Mame works fine with the roms if i run mame outside hyperspin.

All the paths to the roms are fine, but i get error messages saying unable to find the roms.

Last time i just moved the roms to a different location and adjusted the path in hyperhq. But this time no matter what i do it dont seem to unzipping the roms.

Anyone had this ?

Make sure all your wheel image names and rom names match the mame.xml file EXACTLY. Have you audited your games in Hyperlaunch?

hi there, no ive not done any of the above, will take a look.....funny thing is though it was working....

ive never come across a way audit roms in hyperspin hq or launcher

[Fromlostdays]

You need to do the audit in HyperLAUNCHHQ. Not HyperHQ. What version of Hyperspin and Hyperlaunch are you using? In HyperHQ is your mame wheel set to execute normal or hyperlaunch?

You don't unzip mame roms, mame is able to read the zips.

Your obviously not using HyperLaunch HQ.

hi there, im using hyperspin v1.3.3.0

which is from the downloads section...it came with hyperlaunch and hyperhq

I used hyper HQ to set up the parameters and hyperlaunch to test rom and emu launches.

as I have said...all my emus and roms work for other emulators.

even mame was working until I tried it last night and get the error....Required files are missing

all rom paths are correct.

mame emu audits all games ok.

games run ok from mameui64.

its as if it hyperspin is no longer unzipping the roms

Did download and install HyperLaunch from HyperLaunch.net?

[terminator2k2]

no it came in the downolad

[gigapig]

Ok, So I suggest you head off to http://www.hyperlaunch.net/forum/downloads.php?do=cat&id=2 and download the updated HyperLaunch.

Follow the How to install hyperspin guide, or watch my video

including the guide related to the HyperLaunch Beta

I've started a thread about the HyperSpin 1.3.3.0 due to the recent issues.

ok ive downloaded the new hyper launch and made a start.....is there any old files or folders that need to be deleted before I continue?

[Fromlostdays]

You can delete the old hyperlaunch.exe and the hyperspin/modules folder if you have one. But I'd wait until I had a handle on all the newness before I started deleting.
