HyperMarquee

[sevenseal]

Altough I am a hyperspin noob (<Month) I figured out a solution for this just now. I extended my displays as i normally do so in the monitor settings it was to the right of monitor 1. I launched a game in fullscreen just now from rocketlauncher and noticed it threw a piece of the rocketlauncher program onto the 2nd monitor (It pushes to the right). So I went into the display settings and was able to put the 2nd monitor above monitor 1. I then moved the hyper marquee into the new window and launched HS. Now it works perfectly ! I assume some systems push things to the right or left when they are launched because they don't fit on the desktop anymore but now that my marquee is on top it don't matter anymore.

glad your problem was solved

Is there a possibility of themes containing .swf graphics being supported in a future release?

Thanks

Yeah right sevenseal! I like that post too! The only problem is that I have spent hours trying to find a way doing this with .net without success (HM coded in .Net). There are a lot of plausible ways but none of them are conclusive.

My last option so far is to create (convert) new themes with .mp4 or .flv instead of .swf, which is a relative 'big' price to pay. Anybody ready to pay that price? if the answer is yes, then I maybe write a converter (not real time) and read modified themes.

 

NB: Transparency is also an issue since .net doesn't support alpha blending videos. (i can do a transparency key, but not as nice as using alpha channel)

 

Users to let me know.

see that like of your post was on purpose... but probably need to do some more r&d on that for the project

I'm not trying to stir up trouble! Only providing feedback. I wish I knew enough about coding to be of help. But sadly I don't. I'm glad you guys already have the gears turning on a way to make it work. I can't thank you enough for the gem of an application you've already provided.

Thanks

Hi, I'm having trouble getting this to work.....i'm running the latest version of HS and rocketlauncher, windows 8.1 and the latest version of hypermarquee. I setup EDS and HM as per instructions and videos but it isn't working, what I was getting is the game screen itself flashing on the other monitor for about 1 second then disappearing.....hypermarquee isn't showing up whatsoever.....

Is it possible to use HM, in pair with hyper speech,eds,and LED Blinky? The reason i ask is i see you rename some files to a fake LEDBlinky. I already did that for hyper speech so how would i get HM and EDS to work?

Hyperspeech does work well in 1.4 at least the bios dont

all work together just what ninja2bceen said is the bug due to hyperspeech needs to be updated

could paste the code of your eds setting here? and please provide the names of the labels you used in hypermarquee

[danwelsh]

my eds setting application=hyper marquee ipc method=pipe(cli)  parameters= false MAME-Marquee_Artwork [game] [system]  pipe id= MAME-Marquee_Artwork  Event Filter 1,3,9 Close Filter 2,4,6,11

 

labels for Hypermarquee is MAME-Marquee_Artwork

 

Hope you can help me get this going I've been nonstop working on it since last night.....you're more than welcome to do remote assistance if you would like. Also, when I click try in EDS....HM does not appear so I obviously have something wrong

[sevenseal]

i am fine doing rremote assist if you want, just pm your info

[sevenseal]

parameters= false MAME-Marquee_Artwork [game] [system]

 

needs to be changed like this parameters= false MAME-Marquee_Artwork "[game]" "[system]"

is all i can tell with the little information you have gave

 

normally a copy of the setting.ini for eds is pasted or attached the file, but i should have been clear about that

same for hyper marquee but the file is in your setting folder of the program with the label name..

[danwelsh]

I want to send a big thank you to sevenseal for getting this up and running for me.....I wouldn't have had it going for 6 months, everybody that has HS should have HM too, it looks insanely awesome

[Reefboi16]

So what would be the process to get all three to work together? What files need renamed and too what?

[sevenseal]

in hyperspin's folder, you would need to enable LEDBlinky in HyperHQ, the opition are under the "TOOLS" tab and select where EDS is, instead of the actual real LEDBlinky is. *Note: you should have rename an .EXE as LEDBlinky.exe in the EDS folder

 

In EDS, click the application entry for LEDBlinky and select where the real LEDBlinky.exe is at.

for Hyperspeech, you would need to add then copy the line entry exactly the same as LEDBlinky entry in eds, only different is that your are selecting the hyperspeech program instead...

Ah ok I already have led blinky set up and going just need to do it to EDS thanks a lot Sevenseal!

eds is your main goto,... but got to keep this thread focus on it main subject.

this is the hypermarquee thread, not the eds thread, anything mainly related to eds; please discuss on that thread

im wondering how do I layer things.....what I want to have is a background(static) behind the wheel art and scrolling text along the top.....how would I achieve this?

in the generall tab, there is a background line there, pick your background,

what text are you talking about?

[danwelsh]

game info from the database.....like the info that shows on the main screen with the year, manufacturer, etc.

you have setup a new hm config as text, select the location of your databases, theres another line for your game info database from rocketlauncher

[danwelsh]

okay, thanks sevenseal.....I'll be home in an hour from work and see if I can get it going.
