Hyperspin not launching games

iclowl · May 21, 2015

Hello

I did a clean install of Hyperspin 1.3.3 and the latest rLauncher is set up using tutorials on Youtube. Everything is working except I am not able to launch a MAME rom from Hyperspin.

I am able to load MAME in rLauncher and start roms from there. But if I try to load a game in Hyperspin, I get an error saying

No Default_Emulator found in C:\HYPERSPIN\RocketLauncher\Settings\<ROM NAME>\Emulators.ini

I guess it has something to do with the syntax for loading the rom?

Here is the log output:

Please help a newbie :-)

We had the same problem yesterday. Why RocketLauncher is looking for the emulator "ssf2" is a mystery. Unless you provide detailed info on how you set it all up I think you'll need to start again.

Did you set up Mame in RocketlauncherUI? Did you use the transition tool?

iclowl · May 21, 2015

I set up MAME in RocketLauncherUI. Sorry if this is a dumb question but do I need to use the transition tool for a fresh install of HS1.3.3 and rLauncher 1.0 ?

gigapig · May 21, 2015

Because HyperSpin 1.3 is looking for HyperLaunch then I think you need to use section 3B of the guide.

Back up first.

Maybe others have had the same issues? http://www.rlauncher.com/forum/showthread.php?948-RocketLauncher-v1-0-Release!

iclowl · May 21, 2015

I ran the transition tool. Now I am able to launch the rom, it starts to load but then just exits back to the HS MAME menu.

Hi Guys....thanks for all of this info on here. I have been running into the same problem. I just stumbled upon Hyperspin/Hyperlaunch recently and installed everything by using some tutorials that I'd found online. Everything seemed to be working and linked correctly, however when I tried launching a game (using MAME) from Hyperspin, nothing at all would happen. I wasn't getting a message or anything. I could scroll through and see the games that I'd loaded but that was it. I saw a post on here last night regarding the transition tool and ignored it because I'd never had Hyperlaunch, I've only had Rocketlauncher. I deleted both softwares from my PC last night before I saw the post anyway. I'm getting ready to do a fresh install right now but just want to see if that might be my issue if I run into it again? Basically, should the transition tool always be used, regardless if you've had Hyperlaunch or not? Thanks in advance for the feedback.

Same issue, guys over at RL suggest all my settings are in fact correct.

Also HS is not even opening RL, no logs are created in troubleshooting.

ive done 2 clean installs, transitioned HS1.3 only.

Hyperspin just wont open a rom.

The PATH when in CMD works fine.

All I can assume is that the parameters in HS HQ are not being passed correctly:

"MAME" -f "C:\HyperSpin\HyperSpin.exe" -p "HyperSpin"

com line preview:

"C:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe" "RomName." "MAME" -f "C:\HyperSpin\HyperSpin.exe" -p "HyperSpin"

Did you have any luck?

Open up, HyperHQ (the green logo) make sure HyperLaunch is ticked under wheel settings

rocketlaunch team are saying not to do that

Well that fix worked for me on a few systems instantly.

Shame. I can get MAME to run that way, but no other consoles

I might need to find a copy of Hyperlaunch and wait out the beta to HS1.4

make sure you follow everything that is written here:

http://www.rlauncher.com/wiki/index.php?title=HyperSpin

you most probably have wrong settings defined on HyperHQ.

I've had Rocketlauncher dev tell me that its correct, followed that guide

Thanks Bleasby, I saw your RL response.

demonseed · June 13, 2015

I am suddenly having issues too.. Games in RL and HS loaded fine before.. now nothing...

dbdecker · June 13, 2015

I got mine working thanks to bleasby

Run HS as administrator

wrufai · July 7, 2015

I got mine working thanks to bleasby

Run HS as administrator

So after running HS as an administrator, you were able to select a game? I'm having the same issue with HS 1.4 beta and will try this out when I get home tonight.
