I'm not sure what was going on with your setup... the update was just a drag a drop (replace). The problems you describe sound like you weren't using RocketLauncher before this. If that's the case, you definitely would have needed to go through that migration, which has nothing to do with HyperSpin (other than changing the HL path). Good luck!

I get this question frequently enough that maybe I should just update the description to include it.

You need to be a supporting member... it's in the platinum download section

Welcome back! I'm familiar with your situation... I hope you're able to get some sleep. If you're interested, you might start with my "best of MAME" xml (check my sig). That'll get you most of the way there, you'll just need to layer in trackball and lightgun games. I do the same thing, where I only keep the ROMs I want in my setup (though I keep the full set off to the side). I've switched to non-merged, which makes this a LOT easier since you don't need to keep parents + clones. Something to think about.

Here's an idea to extend the topic... how about a list of MAME games with interesting dip switch variants? For example, you can set a dip switch in NBA Jam to make it 2-player (and so, kind of like a clone).
