connorsdad Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Any chance you could fix hss to work with the amiga emulator winuae and atari 2600 retroarch emulator ? Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

I unfortunately can't address what an emulator might do to HSH. If it's clearing out other monitors content I can't force the program over it. Would suggest reaching out to the creators of the emulators to address. Info on HyperspinHelper Software: http://hyperspinhelper.wordpress.com.

connorsdad Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 The emulators work fine, winuae shows a black screen instead of hsh. With the Atari 2600, say I was running hyperpin with a dmd/backing glass on the second monitor beforehand, that would still show when running the Atari emulator (Retroarch) Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
KMHamel Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Is there some sort of log for troubleshooting this program? I still can't get Mame or Daphne to show system controllers. I even tried setting up some for roms....they don't show either. the only thing these two emulators have in common is the fact that they each only have a single word for the system. I am running windows 7 home. The program runs great otherwise. edit: Add PopCap to the systems that wont show controller image.
chernandez Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 Just wanted to say thanks to or8ital for his hyperspin helper program Awesome program I would have never went this way on my build with a 3 screen arcade until I saw this thread Heres some specs and pics of the build lg m2900s marquee 32" display 7" monitor for controls Im not complete yet and theres stuff im going to change but Im having a superbowl party tomorrow and wanted to have it look some what done I barely set it up and marquee needs adjustment and also seting up controls monitor Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Lewman Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Thought Id share my cab using your fantastic software or8ital. Went for a Dell U2913WM 29 Monitor for the marquee at the top. Very pleased with the results!

evh347 Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 First of all, thanks or8ital for this awesome app! I'm so close to having this work exactly like I want it to work, (maybe I missed it) but I have one question: Is there any way I can get the marquees to cycle appropriately per the appropriate "SystemName.png"? On the Main Menu, as I cycle through the available systems I think it would be cool if I had the option to display the system's marquee. I'd also like to be able to choose to continue displaying just the system's marquee rather than cycle through the wheel images. Some of the wheel images are grainy when blown up to size on the marquee monitor and I'd almost rather display a larger hi-resolution system marquee.
connorsdad Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 The answer to your 1st question is at the moment this isn't possible as he has nothing to hook into. As for your 2nd question create a "marquee" folder in your media/images folder and place a copy of the systemsmarquee.png in there. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Sneetch Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Interesting. Created this thread just over a year ago. Time flies. And I am so glad that you did! I am really having fun with getting this setup. Still have yet to figure out a couple things like why my marquee covers the main monitor and hyperspin/emus no matter what order I set in xml... And why marquee is overlapping into my second monitors versus actual pixel dimensions 1920x360. But I will get it for sure. Been enjoying the learning curve and look forward to getting it working, cuz this is one of the coolest things I have seen with HS. I have an LG M2901 arriving tomorrow because of this awesomeness. Thanks again! My Pinball Cabinet Build Thread
or8ital Posted February 20, 2014 Author Posted February 20, 2014 Double check the resolutions you have set in HS and the emulators. Matching those to your main monitor usually resolves most issues.
