Lose control of Hyperspin in Mame Menu

[dreamerawoken]

Hi,

I have been trying to figure this one out on my own, but throwing in the towel.

I am currently running Hyperspin 1.3.

I can control the hyperspin wheel, make selections, and leave the menu wheel on every system installed but on Mame.

As soon as I enter the Mame submenu I lose all controls, and have to lose focus of hyperspin - then go back to focus in order to regain control.

At which point, I lose control all over again if I navigate to any other game selection in the Mame menu. If I leave the Mame menu, all is right with the world.

I have tried disabling Mame themes, Mame Videos, LEDBlinky - and even disconnected my control panel and tested with an ordinary keyboard.

No dice.

I see a thread here that recommends the user upgrade to Hyperspin 1.2 -- I have upgraded to Hyperspin 1.3 and still see the issue.

Any help would be appreciated highly,

Anthony

I know this is an old topic but I can't find any other mentions of this issue.

I'm run into this myself with both v1.3 and v1.3.2.0.

Unfortunately I can't contribute a solution right now, but let me ask: did you ever find a solution?

In my case, the keyboard works fine. Using my Logitech F710 (either with or without Xbox 360 software installed) yields a similar issue to what you described, but emulators other than MAME continuously spin through the list until I use the keyboard.

Hyperspin 1.0 works fine as far as controls go.

I'll test again using my X-Arcade/PS3 controllers with SCPServer and report back if that's OK.

No control at all in HS using the PS3/SCPServer setup, which in theory is just an Xbox 360 controller, on a separate machine. Since I use the PS3 adapter to do the exact same thing on the X-Arcade, I assume it would yield the same result. If you want, I will hook it up and report back.

Joystick 1&2 and Trackball are enabled. Spinner is disabled.

disable trackball.

disable spinner.

disable joystick 1.

disable joystick 2.

Use the hyperspin startup script as your startup program in HyperHQ until joystick controls and mouse movement controls are officially fixed.

Thank you! I'll try it tonight.

Works wonderfully. Many thanks!
