  1. HQ -only mame launches from hq -for all my current setup systems there are multiple instances of several games i.e. psp shows 10+ instances of 007, mame multiple 10x10 etc... in hq same for all other systems. -Artifacts like .txt files or folders can be seen in database (onscreen in hq). if they are not designated rom extensions per emulator, they should not be seen. -gui- X or the close current window button and varios other buttons get hidden behind "processing" windows/slats so you cant see that you can use escape key -maybe put "processing" slats in its own tab or page -HQ is very slow to populate art (visually in system specific fields hq crashes when trying to create collections -Log-in Constantly have to re-login even though "processing" is still in progress. should only need to log in once while app is running and login again if relaunching Hq. id like to see login credentials saved on exit but maybe theres a reason not to save credentials?
  2. HS 2.0 v0.95.0 -please add fav and genre keys in keyboard settings -main wheel only shows mame but no other systems show. i also have dreamcast snes psp, playstation, model 2, naomi setup in hq but are complete no shows in hs no art on main wheel no art in subwheel, no sounds -mame launches from hyperspin . -moving thru mame wheel by pressing and holding the scroll key, brings up letters but only works once. then they never appear again and wheel freezes. different games can be launched but you cant see where you are on wheel. -loses focus between game launches. -window pops up (too fast to read) between exiting game going back to HS. somtimes after launching game. should be hidden and shouldnt cause loss of focus. not sure if thats the cause. -need choice to exit HS. exit? yes/no -cant leave mame wheel once entered
  3. Just installing 2.0.95.0. currently migrating artwork. I had a few random systems installed ie mame of course, snes, psp, model 2 and a couple others. Do you need any specific testing done or just everything? For me pSP has never completed its audit or become playable in earlier HQ's we'll see after the migration ends. beed at least 20 mins now.
  4. Cant argue about the frustration but I always know somthing is happening. Alot is to do with art which seems not interesting but is the main draw of Hyperspin. It is THEE standard setter that all other FE's strive for across all platforms. (pc, retropie, launchbox...etc). Another big area is troubleshooting and that is where you should focus. If you announce bugs, in a constructive way, youll probably get a response or at least get their attention. HS 2.0 is the art, the setup and the launch all in one. So be frustrated but be patient.
  5. Wow, ya know how long we waited between HS 1.0 to HS 1.3? and then HS 1.3 to HS 1.4? and then HS 1.4 to HS 1.5? We waited and waited. Many not so patiently. Many, including myself, decided to contribute while we waited and it Helped blossum HS to what it is now. Many have donated their time. effort and love without pay and obviously not much gratitude. Though the times have changed some toxic attitudes have not. Such a shame. Your free to speak your mind as we ALL are. But remember, speech works both ways. Here is my "Constructive Criticism" Try being a littlle more gracious and patient not so entitlled, leave politics out of this hobby and lobby. The belittlement of the "woke" youngsters who are trying to provide you with a new exprience is not going to give you the desired effect your hoping for. This redesign, revamp, starting from the ground up overhaul is going to take some time. Somtimes without updates. Who was it who said "When its done"? To coin another, term this one from HS 1.0 tagline, "This aint gonna be your Grandms's, Grandmas's Front End!" So from one oldster to another, (I'm 65 yrs young) an oldster like you should know this.
  6. I dont know for sure the real reason for the long names but i do remember a discussion with BadBoyBill in a hotel room at Cal Extreme maybe 15 years+ ago. He wanted to add to the old HS, "crc" naming to all art, making it unmistakably official and counter-intuitively easier to match rom names to it without all the fatmatch, fuzzy match hoop jumping.
  7. hmm, i was setting up atomiswave this week and had errors because i didnt have the roms. 1 error said " this module doesnt support atomiswave" and i knew it did. got the roms and bingo. coink-a-dink or how did you know? hmmm! im back up to 60 systems in old 1.5 HS. working out controls and other little tweaks then ill start f'n with 2.0 and give some feedback. some feedback already is i cant get new hyper hq to download art or acknowlege my rom sets...for any system. by the way do you still have a pc game theme for "cortex command" i asked you to make for me long long ago in a....?
  8. Congats and koodos to all involved. So glad to see this come out after all these years post Cal Extreme hotel room days lol
