HyperSpin Startup Script 1.08

[drewjbx1]

Thanks will give it a try..

[godinster]

I am breaking my posting cherry to say thanks for this.  I spent all day today and part of the day yesterday trying to get JoyToPad or xpadder to work with as little nuisance possible and to play nicely with Kodi, Windows and leave me alone otherwise but neither was able to do it.  This script took about 3 minutes to get working (including to have Kodi remaximize when closing HS) which was a bonus.

So yeah, thanks dude!

[godinster]

To add to my previous point, I actually have a question and it's likely just due to my lack of understanding of the terminology.

 

Currently I have the script minimize and maximize all my other windows when it loads HyperSpin.  However, sometimes the load order isn't necessarily the way I want it to be.  I'd like for HyperSpin, when it's exited, to seamlessly kick back to Kodi.  I see there's an option to close and re-open applications when HS is respectively opened and closed but is there a way to only maximize one window (in this case, Kodi) when HS is closed using the script?

 

It's certainly the end of the world if not as I normally only have Kodi and/or HS running anyway in which case it kicks back without issue but sometimes if I have Chrome open, it's one extra trip to the keyboard/mouse that I'd love to avoid if possible

[ghutch92]

You could try closing the chrome process when hyperspin starts (i.e. Process_Name_To_Close_1=chrome.exe)

you could write your own script to maximize and activate the kodi window and have the startup script run it when hyperspin closes (i.e. Program_To_Run_Target_1=C:\Hyperspin\Utilities\my script.ahk)

Hey ghutch,

 

I have an issue with the start-up script being unresponsive or finicky. Almost as though there is input lag, I press up or down and it registers late or as two or three presses. If I restart my computer the issue goes away but returns after a few opening/closings of hyperspin. I've checked explorer for multiple instances of the script running as I thought that may have been the problem. Got any ideas? :Let me know if there is anything I can do to further clarify.

 

Best,

 

Steve

No idea. Is there any more information you can give?

Like cpu or ram while the app is running?

Is the keyboard still responsive in these cases or is the keyboard also finicky?

How many openings and closings before the problems start occurring?

[xHyperSteve]

Keyboard functions better. Absolutely perfectly. i3 3240 with 8gb of ram. I'll see if I can get video next time it occurs brother.

Anyone here having issues with this script and Windows 10?

 

After upgrading I stated getting error. Fixed the paths and everything started up fine but now scrolling doesn't work with the game pad. The buttons work but I can't scrool up and down. 

[xHyperSteve]

Hi ghutch,

I think I may have solved my own problem by disabling my third party key mapper. I think it have been running at the same time. I'll let you know if this was the case after extended use.

Thanks for your time,

Steve

found a sound bug where if you press 1 in my case I can change the volume. Only thing is if I adjust it, I see the volume bar move back after I stop adjusting it and it sets back at the volume the master volume control is for my pc so really the volume adjuster in hyperspin doesn't really allow for adjustments.

Can you post your HyperSpin Settings file? It's called Settings.ini in HyperSpin's Settings folder. Thanks.

Nevermind fellas I answered my original question by double checking the startup script ini file.........Although xpadder loads the fronted profile now,it wont load system profiles...I hate xpadder....hahaha

Here is the following error i'm getting at startup.  The sctript startup seems so sort of work.  I'm using the Ultimarc Ultimate I/O board and with sanwa arcade sticks.  I mapped everything per your instructions in the startup settings link (I hope) and i'm still having issues navigating the wheel in Hyperspin.  When I press down on the arcade stick the wheel spins like 20 systems then stops.  But it's random.  Sometimes it spins more, sometimes less or just keeps spinning.  The buttons work fine just the navigation portion is the issue.  Do you have any advice you could just me?

 

My PC is a i7 core 24 ddr3 ram memory.  I have a gtx660 Graphics card.  OS is on a solid state and hyperspin runs off a 7200 RPM 3Tb internal hard drive.

Increase the deadzone to something greater than 20. I personally like 25. Also increasing the delay might help.

Hi there,

 

I'm using this script as a workaround because I always run into serious lag issues whenever I use the built-in HyperSpin controller support. However, when this script is enabled it causes an issue where every time I launch an emulator, it goes right back to HyperSpin within a few seconds. The emulator launches successfully and I can see it in another tab but it always goes right back to HyperSpin immediately after launching. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've the same issue sometimes. Any ideas?

Glutch, I was using your script for months now without any problem, but today something weird happened, I don't know what happened, but now it's not working anymore, it gives me this error.

One thing that I should point out is that strangely today I had to point Daemon Tools and some other third party programs, such as xpadder because these settings were blank, and now I get the above error, is it easy to fix?

 

It's a windows 8.1 64 bits machine.

 

Thanks Glutch.

 

 

EDIT: I didn't notice Glutch hasn't been active since october, so I had to try solving this myself, and I managed to.

 

What I noticed is that it had something to do with the main settings of Hyperspin, that Settings.ini that is under Settings folder in the root HS folder, I have a backup of the Settings folder, so I copied that settings.ini from my backup and I don't get the above error anymore, now the script works flawlessly.

 

For those who face this problem, here is my settings.ini, it can help you if you face the same problem as I did.

Hi:

 

Nice script.  It's really the only thing that worked for me to get my u360 analog joysticks working in Hyperspin.

 

Anyway, I am seeing an issue where LEDBlinky and HyperSpin Startup Script don't seem to be playing nice.

 

If you go into LEDBlinky and configure JDR mode for the u360, it will load a map file to the joysticks when a game is selected from the wheel.

In my case, I have LEDBlinky setup and turned on in HyperSpin.

 

Anyway, with the JDR u360 option enabled, during game launch it seems like random joystick movements are sent to the HyperSpin UI causing the wheel to move at the same time RocketLauncher is bringing up the emulator.  I have also seen HyperSpin jump to my 'FAVORITES' screen in addition to the random wheel movements.

 

Needless to say, this tends to screw things up as HS doesn't really think it's a background application anymore, etc.

 

If LEDBlinky is configured to NOT send the map files to my u360s on game launch, this problem NEVER occurs.

 

So, there is some interplay between setting the maps in the U360s and the startup script.

 

The other thing I should add is that if LEDBlinky IS configured to update the joystick maps and I have NOT configured HS to run the Startup Script, then the problem NEVER occurs as well.

 

So it looks here like the HyperSpin Startup Script is the odd man out.

 

I'm really surprised that I haven't seen any comments on this elsewhere.  I find it hard to believe that I'm the only one running this particular Hardware/Software combination.

 

Is this something that you could look into?  I think it's the script behaving badly in this case.

 

Thanks,

Dave

Wow people say you don't need this anymore with 1.4 but I found that 360 and PS3 controller works like crap in the menus.

 

I just found this via YT and it works perfect for both my pads.

Anyway, I am seeing an issue where LEDBlinky and HyperSpin Startup Script don't seem to be playing nice.

 

If you go into LEDBlinky and configure JDR mode for the u360, it will load a map file to the joysticks when a game is selected from the wheel.

In my case, I have LEDBlinky setup and turned on in HyperSpin.

 

Anyway, with the JDR u360 option enabled, during game launch it seems like random joystick movements are sent to the HyperSpin UI causing the wheel to move at the same time RocketLauncher is bringing up the emulator.  I have also seen HyperSpin jump to my 'FAVORITES' screen in addition to the random wheel movements.

 

 

Just for the record. I have this issue too and I'm not using this script.
