Mame emulator losing focus

[mrstaun]

When I spin the MAME wheel and select a game I sometimes loose focus on the Mameuifx64 emulator, which means the game runs behind Hyperspin.

 

The only way to continue is to use ALT+TAB keys (keyboard) to the emulator.

 

Any idea how to avoid this as the Arcade doesn't have a keyboard attached (only buttons+joysticks.)

 

Is there a way to combine some buttons with JoyToKey, so I can simulate ALT+TAB?

That's weird. You shouldn't have to do that at all.

Are you using Hyperspin as your front-end and a backend manager like HyperlaunchHQ or Rocketlauncher?

It's possibly just a setting hidden somewhere that is set wrong.

Using Hyperspin as Front-end and HyperLauch as Laucher. (tried to upgrade to Rocketlauncher, but that screwed up my entire setup, so that will be another day to setup)

ISo you reverted back to HyperlaunchHQ from Rocketlauncher? If so it's possible that something got renamed/moved/changed in that process that's screwing it up.

I'm dreading having to change to Rocketlauncher.

It's probably because the emulator is swithing screen resolution to 640x480, or any other than your desktop's.

 

If that's your case, put your video mode to GDI, that could solve this issue.
