I also request this. Database control is crucial. Lately all the bug request have been about MAME rom filtering settings and missing games after importing roms. Having control over databases would fix all that. Without importing a user created database, how can MAME be updated on a monthly basis? For that matter, how can MAME Software List systems be added? There's no way the shortnames of all MAME roms can be identified with the scaping tool. I'm not just talking about arcade games. MAME is the largest and most consistently updated emulator covering hundreds of systems. None of which can be matched to any media with the current scraping tool. I could only see that working if we could maintain our own databases and could scrape media based off the database game "description" info and not "rom name" info. Maybe HyperHQ could use MAME Software List Hash files to identify match roms to media? Still that would be so much work to set up. The easiest solution is to give us access to creating or using existing xml databases. There's no way to automate this and please everyone. So make it the users responsibility to maintain.

Can confirm is fixed, as 2.053 updated in the correct folder.

I appreciate your comment and thank you for acknowledging my effort to help in the beta test. I would like to point out that I am not being impatient, just responding to other comments that are telling me to "lower my expectations" and insinuating I don't know what I'm doing. I am more than happy to wait for resolution of this issue because I know it takes time to recreate the issue, troubleshoot, make corrections, test, troubleshoot more, make corrections, test again (rinse & repeat as necessary), then release the fix; because I have been in the same boat as you all many times in the past.

This is one that I've reported directly to Fr0sty several times during early alpha. It's a server side cache issue and is supposed to be fixed with an upcoming rework of the cache system.

I'm rebuilding the installer. I'll try to have something for you later today

You'd have to delete every HS/HQ file in the system and hidden. An uninstaller is coming soon.

Are you on Hyperspin v2.0.36.0? Did you also, remove the 2 folders under the user profile?

Atari 2600, 5200, and 7800 themes worked fine for me on HyperHq v2.0.54 . I installed Retroarch through HyperHQ. Try deleting your Hyperspin and HyperHQ files inside your user AppData folders.

Hi, I am also getting this issue

The Emumovies access issue was a me problem. It appears that Nord sees Emumovies as a threat but doesn't like to notify that it is blocking... Issue is resolved. Leaving this up in case anyone was actually watching this thread.

HyperHQ version .49 fixed the issue. THANKS!!!

Just tested and has been fixed in 2.053

This should be fixed now. Please verify from the latest.

Changed Current Status to Fixed Changed Fixed in Version to 2.0.53

I just done some testing with Frosty and he has fixed an installer issue to rectify it on my system. I expect this will get into the next update the way around it is to let the update download and manual grab the exe file from the hyperHQ-updater folder in Users/AppData. Then manually run it in your custom location. Or grab the download exe from the forum and run it manually as above

MAME 274 is working fine on HyperHQ v2.049, Hyperspin v2.0.34.0.

It's any version of MAME. I tried multiple versions.

Found the issue. I'll be out in the next build

Ok, go into the plugins area and tell me what version of hyperspin core you have installed. I think you might have an older version or something.

Here is my log HyperHQ-2025-02-22-10-28-49.log

I also noticed this bug - if the game doesn't have a box and/or cartridge, it will take the form of one standing nearby. I showed it on the video.

Better 4:3 support is in the works. I'll leave this updated as a place where I can post updates as we go. We're targeting Widescreen and higher res for the first round of testing, but its coming!

We're rebuilding the controller interfaces to cover these scenarios. We're adding HID support directly.

I tested my pad and Dpad will not control the HS wheel. HQ only recognizes Dpad Up/Down/Left when configuring but Right will not assign. I have a 2 DS3 pads with a custom driver https://github.com/nefarius/DsHidMini When I have my second controller plugged in both can control HS but only one is detected in HyperHQ

I'll try again today.. I've been inundated on hardware lately. ugh...

This error is removed in the next version. It's a process that cleans up any open AHK instances after the close of the emulator. So not a "real" bug as its just saying there was nothing to clean up.

Just deleted MAME and re-installed it and it now loads as it did before with the same settings on v2.0.43 It's still saying Error stopping AHK scripts: Command failed: taskkill /IM AutoHotkey64.exe /F ERROR: The process "AutoHotkey64.exe" not found but loads the rom now. This is the log it produced ... [2025-02-10 08:16:15.143] [info] App starting...

So it looks like these are all systems that we don't have up to date databases for. We're working down the list, but the next build of HQ will handle this event more gracefully. I'll update this post when the next version is released

Thank you so much for posting videos so I can see the issue! Yes we're aware that the dynamic image calculation needs fixed for themes. This is one of the changes we're going to be making in the coming weeks. I'll leave this bug open to track it.

Also... I mentioned this before... but if you could move the delete button to the system screen please./.. it would make cleaning up roms that you dotn want or that arent supposed to be there much easier. Thanks!

Still stuck on 98% on v2.0.43 It's also still taking 10+ minutes to load Hyperspin every time you use it. Here is the log HyperHQ-2025-02-08-08-26-25.log

Hold off until this weeks build. We have lots of fixes for both matching and for the override system. If you post your logs I can look into why matchmaking was failing for your sets. The next version of the app will also have a log viewer so you dont have to go find them.

Check C drive ProgramFiles also hidden Users AppData folder and there’s another one ProgramData Not at a PC to confirm proper paths. but the above have data and logs etc

-This is BETA software. Please lower your expectations accordingly.

After a few restarts of the computer the problem seems to have fixed itself.

MAME should be the easiest set to add and with Hyperspin 1.5 I have 4,880 working roms on my wheel yet running it through Hyperspin 2 it only finds 2,920 (with skipping anything) This is the same with Launchbox (7 years after it was released) so they are both obviously using the sane crap scraper. We need an option where it imports EVERY rom in the folder you point to like all the other sets (then you can at least use dummy roms for the importing. using MAME 0.273 non merged.

This is coming very soon!

Program files? We dont use that.... You mean program data, right?

It already feels better in .35 btw so not sure if something changed

I have a DS3 pad running SCP Service to present as Xbox controller and DPad is controlling the wheel It was in .27 and now .28 HS HQ .35

I was able to copy and paste 2.0.34 files from the Program Files folder to my existing HyperHQ install. Overwriting the files worked. Then I removed the Program Files install. Not a real solution but it worked.

I had figured that out shortly after reading the post. I changed my reply to updating the cores. which it hung up on.

I believe this was spoken about and the java error was unrelated to controller?
