Have u tried the new puae core??...u should because it plays cdtv, cd32, and hdf,adf, and whdload games...give it a try and has full controller support for cd32/cdtv and keyboard and mouse and joystick for amiga

As far as msdos goes...its best to load them via conf files....basically the conf file has all the settings and what will be the c drive and what will be the d drive if applicable for cd based games...they also need to be on internal drive as I had errors loading from my hdd....scummvm is a bit tricky and needs subfolders...basically each subfolder will hold the game plus a .scummvm txt file inside which is what u will use to launch the game...the xml must also reflect the subfolders (I have the notepad++ code to reflect the subfolders)....amiga u can use uae4arm or puae core in retroarch...myself and ransome have tested alot of games and all seem to load good and puae has on board keyboard or u can use a bluetooth keyboard...keyboard is also good on scummvm and msdos.....

I havent tried studio2 but I got many many mess systems up and running...the hardest were the old russian computers and basically I had to either watch videos on the actual games on a real pc or try 2 download instruction manuals for the games...basically did that to configure the buttons ...that's basically what u gotta do unless u already know the keys

Check other systems if it does the same....if so that means u have the shield setting turned on to kill all apps upon exiting....if u leave hyperspin to jump on an emulator, technically the shield sees it as if u left that app so it will kill it....when u exit the emulator, only place u can go back to is shield main menu

The uae file may be incorrect...even if u click the file using a file explorer, that will auto launch the emulator to the game if all is correct...

Did u set those folders in the directory settings?....it seems like u didnt because when u 1st opened the menu it automatically pointed to the default location in hidden files section...I can confirm that I'm using hyperspin 1.8 retroarch3264 and using retroarch 1.7.6 and also using retroarch64 1.7.5....I changed all important locations that I personally use to edit things like configs folder, overlays folder downloads folder and info folder....did it for both retroarch apks...also changed the open menu buttons to start +back and exit left and right thumbs....did it twice on both apks...1 for standalone apk and again after hyperspin launched both apks....everything is confirmed working as it should

My fault....I had the shield button enabled to kill apps if not currently using...turned it off and all is working now as normal 🙂

Hey everyone... quick question....I had to reset my shield TV because I downloaded a shady apk that was causing my shield to act up and it would restart regularly on its own....so anyways moving forward , I installed the 1.8 Hyperspin apk and everything seems to work as far as my bezels per game and controller configs and even loading my own custom cores within the downlaods folder...my big issue is now now matter which apk I use (retroarch1.7.6, or retroarch64 1.7.5) when I exit out a game it restart hyperspin.....it doesn't exit back to the game wheels but instead I get the hyperspin startup video then the main menu wheels.....anyone experience that or is it just me?

Yea the index file can have all the same info except core name...I think the 1st line is date then space then like a crc type number space then core name ending with zip.....the date and crc number can all be the same when editing the index file

To split cores it's done on the PC using gsar.exe and a batch file....its not a str8 forward tutorial on retroarch forumns though because u need to know the official core name and when renaming I beleive it must have the same amount of characters as the original core....took a few tries b4 I successfully split fba core...then like thatman said it must be imported which is a gr8 tutorial but depending who is following it, it may get confusing as we all know not everyone is super proficient on android...as far as amiga goes, I gotta check on my stuff because I can launch the hdf on my phone with no issues but when I tried on the shield it crashed

In retroarch forumns is the instructions to split a core and rename it to something else...basically for the purpose of using to of the same cores but with different properties so they dont clash...I did it for neogeo aes and mvs...same roms but different cores ...1 says insert coin and the other says press start

Zerojay thanks bro for editing the apk....I can confirm that everything is working gr8 now and I can use retroarch64 for gamecube and any other core that works better than retroarch32...now it's time to just investigate what cores should be used in 64 and or 32 ...I've heard that ps1 works better with retroarch64 but haven't looked into it yet

I did the hyperspin apk alter and it works BUT I went back to regualr hyperspin apk....reason is I have alot of split cores and a few customized cores that dont work on retroarch64....I didnt even check to see if retroarch64 has the same amount of cores but what I do know is that the regualr retroarch cores will not work on retroarch64.
