1. The scraping of media has to improve immensely.... Sega Naomi for instance uses mame roms... and not one game has a logo. 2. How do you add media to a collection? Metal slug collection for instance... These dont recognize with the media manager and therefore nothing can be created... Id like to add a wheel for it... as well as a theme. Or is this something being added later.

Where do the video themes go exactly? They cant go in the same video folders right? C:\ProgramData\HyperSpin\media\Systems\_overrides\Arcade (MAME)\EmuMoviesVideoMedium <--Wouldnt it just think its a regular video? Since this is overrides... hyperspin knows to use this folder over the cache folder? And even if it does use it... it projects the video to the full screen? Not displaying in the system theme? Also... having a copy of the video in the regular client folder... then copying it over to cache... and having another video in override.... is a bit nuts. 3 copies of the video for the same game? Plus snaps? We should be able to delete the ones we want and turn off syncing... every time hyperlaunch starts... it just starts grabbing the same files. Taking up huge amounts of space. Thanks

I know whats causing it... Adding Intro videos breaks hyperspin. Even just 1 breaks it. (Just tested it) I removed them and everything came right back. Also if you choose blinky... And leave it disabled. It starts anyways.

I think I corrupted my database file somehow... Starting fresh. :(

HLHQ works fine... the data and all my settings seem to be intact.... But its literally just a big grey screen when I launch hyperspin

Need help. Rebuilt my Wheel Cache... Now I get a grey screen. No hyperspin... How do I fix this?

Beside details... you should be able to delete games from the systems directory.... Currnetly you got to click details... click the ... Then choose delete game.

Theres one to many clicks.

Theme.json has an entityID... this is used by hyperspin to identify which game the theme is for.

Incorrect.. Even the themes are locked down. They have a code as well.. more information below All the themes have to be made on the Website... you cant just sub in your own art. Why? Cause theyve assigned a code 0a2a1637-bfca-4828-9bc6-08dc3b328f31 <--- Like so... To each and everything logo, theme, cart art etc. Meaning that you cant even use the same code for the same game. And you cant use the same theme, for other games. So technically... every piece of art... has to have a unique code, predefined by them... in which you make the art on their site... you pick the game... the code gets assigned to that art... its downloaded and used on the setup. So basically they control every step of the process. Because the codes are baked into the Hyperspin.exe or theyre encrypted into one of the databases that get stored on the C drive. The only things that dont have codes... Seem to be the videos. But I cant seem to add my own videos anyways. (I believe you can with mame... but the others im not so sure... Having trouble doing it.. still learning) I also need a way to turn off syncing... It keeps trying to sync with emumovies at random times.

lol wtf.... Sympathetic.... Everything they did here says the opposite... They all probably laughed after he left...

Databases are encrypted and stored on the C drive. Best thing to do... if you want to use your own media... your gonna have to hunt down the exact hash and swap in your own media manually...

Not sure what to tell you.... I got a load of things working... Ive added about 25 systems and theyre all launching now... The naming is what im concerned about.

Getting this.... I havent been able to launch hyperspin.exe at all.

"Atari Lynx" %rom.path%

ALl the videos download to the C drive? Dafuq? C:\ProgramData\HyperSpin\media\Systems\Arcade (MAME)\EmuMoviesVideoHigh\ Can this be changed? I dont have a big C drive.

Set the name of the wheel before the rom name... If theres spaces... use "" marks.

Ive got a bunch of things running through Rocketlauncher... which is good cause the backend has all the settings... directories, bezels and other stuff. However... And even with the new naming... I wish there was dummy files. Theres a bunch of files that get stored on C drive as well. Caches and databases etc. Im playing with this...learning is progressing... Also... How do you delete roms? I dont want to remove the game from the database and refresh. Scraping isnt the best
