Beautiful cab & nice setup. Thanks for sharing.

2 minor improvement suggestions;

- To remove the bottom right visual handle, go in global setting and check off "start in edit mode..."

- If you are using EDS, only if, black pause between image transitions shouldn't occur. Let us know if you are using EDS we can help you to fix this.

Cheers!

Well, I actually shipped this cabinet out already to my buddy that commissioned it :/

I was indeed using EDS but I found that if I didn't close hypermarquee between each graphic there were multiple hypermarquee.exe programs opening. After a few dozen of those bad boys being open at the same time things got a little wonky lol! I'll be doing another similar setup in a few months and would love to know how to correct this issue if possible. Thanks for the feedback!

One more question - I couldn't seem to activate any of the video transitions or animations. What should I look for in getting those going?

not sure, i feel comfortable to give someone support whom sell hypermarquee and eds material without the consent/credit/endorsement to the creator/author

I have been working on this but so far no success , did the settings for Mame as per the guide and set the wild cards already.
Bad luck it seems my EDS cant start hypermarque therefore I cannot test if my settings are correct or not. For this hopefully brother seven will assist me.

Main time Is there any way to test if the artwork display properly on the wide screen? No previews something like that?

Thank you friends

I am having an issue getting the artwork to show in HM. I have followed the installation and configuration video for artwork on the HM download page. I am running HS 1.4, HM 0.4.10 but I do not have EDS installed, is it required to get Hm to work properly?

Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciated.

if you do not use eds, you will need to do some ahk script to run it, or mod some module of rocketlauncher to make it work

Is there a way to use the parent rom name for an artwork file? I only have marquee images for the parent rom and not the clones. If that is not possible, does anyone know of a utility to create copies of the parent rom images to the clone rom names?

I'm launching with EDS Pipe (CLI)

Hi,

Not at the moment, but I guess I can do an easy upgrade within HM using MAME.xml (hyperlist - http://hyperlist.hyperspin-fe.com/). This would be possible using HM wildcard 'cloneof'.

	<game name="jrking" index="" image="">
		<description>Junior King (bootleg of Donkey Kong Jr.)</description>
		<cloneof>dkongjr</cloneof>
		<crc></crc>
		<manufacturer>bootleg</manufacturer>
		<year>1982</year>
		<genre>Platform / Run Jump</genre>
		<rating>AAMA - Green (Suitable For All Ages)</rating>
		<enabled>Yes</enabled>
	</game>

HM already imports Hyperlist, so this shouldn't be hard. Let me know if this ok for you.

Cheers!

That would work perfectly! It would go well with the HyperSpin wheel option "Clones use Parent Themes"

Ok, I have put a new version in the download section (0.4.13). A new wild card is now available; i.e. [CloneOf]. Let me know if you need support to make it work.

N.B.:

- If no 'cloneof' is available, HM will use the passed ROM name.

- Make sure that you point (define) to the proper Hyperlist.xml in the HM database section

Please test and let me know if it works. (not tested other than home test)

Cheers,

Works perfectly on my cab. I greatly appreciate you adding that feature! I owe you a donation!

Good morning! I'm having two issues with Hypermarquee that I can't seem to solve. I would appreciate any help. I'm running Hyperspin 1.4 and hypermarquee 0.4.10.37232.

1. The marquee changes perfectly when choosing games and when I launch a game. When I exit a MAME or Daphne game, hyperspin is frozen and I must press the mouse button to put the focus on hyperspin so it works again. When I turn off hypermarquee, I don't have this issue so it seems like hypermarquee is taking the focus away from hyperspin.

2. I'm using a 21:9 LED marquee. The artwork shows really small in hypermarquee. What marquee artwork do you use and can hypermarquee automatically scale the artwork to an established resolution?

Thanks!

Hi,

Here is the answer to your questions;

Question 1. The marquee changes perfectly when choosing games and when I launch a game. When I exit a MAME or Daphne game, hyperspin is frozen and I must press the mouse button to put the focus on hyperspin so it works again. When I turn off hypermarquee, I don't have this issue so it seems like hypermarquee is taking the focus away from hyperspin. Answer: HyperSpin forces focus on every window that is at top/left position (0,0). Don't know why. There are two easy ways to round that. 1- Put any HyperMarquee window above position (0,0). I.e (1,1) at a minimum, or, 2- Put your Hyperspin window (logical screen) Top Left.

Question 2. I'm using a 21:9 LED marquee. The artwork shows really small in hypermarquee. What marquee artwork do you use and can hypermarquee automatically scale the artwork to an established resolution? Answers: Within HM, you can full size your image, go in HM menu -> artwork -> stretch mode. And for best HQ Marquee quality use; http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/topic/13654-official-mame-high-res-marquee-thread-graphically-very-intense/page-1

Hypermarquee is like the cherry on top of an ice cream sundae

no problems with new beta.

One question, is it possible align marquee image top of the window? I read on ini´s that it could be done with text but I can´t find option for images.

you could align the windows of the art to the top of the screen by resizing the hypermarquee's windows to display

thats the poblem. Marquees dont have all same aspect ratio so in my marquee monitor I should use a bigger height for non ultra-wide marquee. Then ultra-wide marquees center at the window.

it is not a big issue, only a feature could help in config.

you can do resize of the image to fit the windows that you made... you can do a full stretch, uniform... plus more
