To anyone following my posts lately, I have been working in modifying HyperSpin so that it can run all modern versions of RetroArch. I know that some of you have been waiting for it since 2019. Well, the wait is finally over. Download: HyperSpin_v0.1.8_HyperSeeder.apk: https://mega.nz/file/uNx0gQQA#f5ktYDOV6nMAWxatrlg6XAYz14ZMdYlkWg994s-1WDg MD5: 4692846e4fe9a90bd0da3a6cd9f10ed3 SHA512: 2f5db6b625983c189b9f82c574bf48781921780825a38ceaf9c1094bd113545f9abdd06c5b4ac8707093e3e2ac0fc1185b9bc939f30f5ee830a41689c68e5b21 How to configure your Settings_Android ini files: Main APK from RetroArch's website and Google Play Store Version: exe=com.retroarch/com.retroarch.browser.retroactivity.RetroActivityFuture RetroArch's website 32bit version: exe=com.retroarch.ra32/com.retroarch.browser.retroactivity.RetroActivityFuture RetroArch's website 64bit version and RetroArch Plus: exe=com.retroarch.aarch64/com.retroarch.browser.retroactivity.RetroActivityFuture Have fun! FAQ: Can I mix and match multiple RetroArch distributions? Yes, you just need to set different exe values for different systems. For instance, you can use the 64bit version of RA + Dolphin core for GameCube games (Nintendo GameCube.ini): exe=com.retroarch.aarch64/com.retroarch.browser.retroactivity.RetroActivityFuture parameters=cores/dolphin_libretro_android.so And the 32bit version of RA + MAME Core (MAME.ini): exe=com.retroarch.ra32/com.retroarch.browser.retroactivity.RetroActivityFuture parameters=cores/mame2010_libretro_android.so Will it load separate configuration files for 32bit and 64bit versions? Yes, it will always load the default configuration file for each version. Default configuration files are in /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/[package name]/files/retroarch.cfg For example: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.retroarch.ra32/files/retroarch.cfg Can I make Hyperspin launch my own custom compiled version of RetroArch? Yes. As long as the package name starts with com.retroarch everything should work. Can I configure HyperSpin to load retroarch.cfg from a custom location? Not for now. I find that I can accomplish what I want with the default config file + settings overrides. If you have a specific use case that would benefit from this feature comment bellow and I'll see what I can do. How was this implemented? I reversed engineered the original Google Store APK using Apktool and JEB. You can find the two lines of code that I've modified bellow. You can use APK Studio to verify my changes. Has it been tested? Barely. I tested it with my NVIDIA Shield 2017 and 2019. It worked with all mentioned distributions, RA versions 1.9.0 and 1.9.1 How can I help? Test it and let me know if it works :). If you know someone able to get my two lines change integrated in the official build and published to the Google Play Store, please point the person to this topic. Acknowledgment: Many thanks to@zerojay, @yarrick and @Honosuseri for "hacking" their own versions of HyperSpin. While this version is my own work, I couldn't do it without the information that you all made available to the community.

Not to self promote, but I already did this with RocketBlinky, via the LEDBlinkyControls.xml, to the point that Arzoo now includes it w LEDBlinky downloads. Might be a faster solve for those who find this thread

I had either the same or a similar issue. I double clicked HyperSpin.exe and I could see the background process (HyperSpin (32 bit)) running in the Task Manager's Processes tab, but no window would ever come up. I had placed sxs.dll in my root directory as recommended here: https://hyperspin-fe.com/forums/topic/42440-hyperspin-not-loading/ When right clicking HyperSpin.exe and going to Properties, I had checked "Run this program as an administrator" in the compatibility tab. I had turned off Windows Defender *in the control panel*, and added an exception for HyperSpin.exe anyway even though that shouldn't matter with Defender turned off. So I still had the issue with all of that done and I decided to double check myself. I used the Windows search blank next to the start button to open Windows Defender settings again expecting to be take to the Control Panel again, but instead it offered a different window. This time it launched the Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security window. It said Defender was turned on, so I turned it off here as well. After that, it FINALLY WORKED! I just double clicked HyperSpin.exe and the program launched in full screen. So if there are any steps I did here that you have not done, please give them a try! Good luck.

Hey, I just did exactly that and I started off using this guide here: https://gameroomsolutions.com/setup-hyperspin-mame-hyperlaunch-full-guide/ It's for MAME but once you've walkedthrough that you'll be bale to figure out the other systems.. I've also created a playlist of videos that i've found useful on Youtube that you can access here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb4JfnF9Bg93c8an5XRLwlMAIYavgSK8_ Hope this helps!

Working version: Testers are welcome. Cheers,

Great links there, thanks for those.

Hours gone but problem solved. Thanks Spawk! I was fuddling along with multiple issues and this last one stung me for a lot of time. It would appear that new system build is up with 1 working system...

Another thing to mention is that not all video formats work. Even 2 files that are both MP4 and made with the same codec, one may work, the other not. Maybe the bitrate is too high on one? Not sure of the specifics but the bottom line is, videos that don't come from EmuMovies aren't guaranteed to work. Check filenames first though, just open RLUI and run an "audit", it will display a list of every game in the xml. Also, just to be clear, don't confuse the RL media folder and the HS media folder. Just saying, the folder structure is very similar but RL uses very different media for different purposes.

If I may Spawk, Make sure ALL your media files are named the same as your roms. one little "." or number/letter off, won't call that certain media file.

Update, I followed Spawk's link to the ssx.dll and it fixed the issue (for me, at least).

DONE!!!! --- Admins can lock this thread please Ive created a MAME Game text list on the following link thats missing from the LEDBlinky Colors.ini file. I intend of filling out LEDBlinky with as many games as I can. Just take a quick look at the list, and if you recognize a game and know how many buttons it uses, put the following below the game: B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6 etc After I know how many buttons each game uses. Ill create a new Colors.ini after I customize the colors. And add it to LEDBlinky, and share the file here for everybody to get. This is purely a list of ONLY WHAT IS MISSING FROM THE COLORS.INI FILE, And represents the MAME.xml based on whats playable.

No, HS does not support subwheel. You can do it using multiple istances of HyperSpin. EXAMPLE: the main HS launch the HS with console games

Hello! Can someone little help my switch project. How i get the switch games for PC? And any tutorial to add all RL? What is the minimum pc specs to run switch? Need games video clips too. Thanks

you rock! testing it out, might finally make an update to the video now that there is some good news to actually share XD

A little later than expected, but here you go Bandit. I've tested the modified version with 2019 No Clutter Classics. RetroArch 64bit + flycast_libretro_android is working great. I'm also launching RetroArch 32Bit + mame2010_libretro_android from the same build without issues. BTW, I use "different" nicknames around the internet. I'm the person that recently reached out about Turok's artwork. Your collection is great. I hope to see a refreshed version soon ;).

Progress so far: To anyone looking to make it work with modern versions of Retroarch I could do it by changing two lines in HSFENativeActivity. In launchEmulator I had to change the line: if (pkgclassName[0].equals("com.retroarch")) { To: if (pkgclassName[0].startsWith("com.retroarch")) { And in setupLibretroIntent I had to change the line: launchIntent.putExtra("CONFIGFILE", "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.retroarch/files//retroarch.cfg"); To: launchIntent.putExtra("CONFIGFILE", "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/" + pkgName + "/files//retroarch.cfg"); I'm still testing it and as soon as I'm sure that it works for all versions I will release an APK, just leaving this registered here for users that arrive from Google in the future to know how to fix the issue :).

So this is a hard subject but I will try to be as clear as possible. We are HyperSpin. This is THE HyperSpin website, there is no other website and we NEVER sell content. To be clear, what you have is not from us. We didn't have anything to do with it. Once again, We do not sell and do not support third party drives. It is clearly discussed in the top left of the forum directory: " Beware of HyperSpin Scam Sites We continue to get complaints from people who buy HyperSpin hard drives and set-ups that are upset because they don't work or don't receive promised support. To be clear, there is no one out there selling HyperSpin that is in any way affiliated with us. We urge all of our members to avoid these sites or sellers who pretend to be related to HyperSpin.
