The HyperSpin community has been ravenously hungry for quality tutorials like these for YEARS. Tremendous accomplishment Avar. Can't wait for HyperAI to further streamline the entire experience.
2 videos in, this one and how to install HyperSpin and RocketLauncher...such a great help! Tried doing it without watching any videos a while back and had no clue what I was doing.
Holy crap this must the most professional sounding narration I've ever heard in Hyperspin related video or probably any kind of MAME or gaming related subject for that matter! Kudos! Edit: Noticed I'm not the only one who thought so! Great job!

at the 2:36 minute mark the files you are selecting are way different on the site than they are in the video. i m not sure if I should follow or just move to the next video in the hopes that this is just a run down of things I can look forward to doing later. however so far this series is super awesome.

I prefer that spinning wheel front end GUI (whatever it is) of games and systems but how well have they kept up with this like if i used it now how would it handle as Id want to put this into an arcade cabinet someday and think it looks the best compared to some of the ones retroarch uses nowadays but they might have better running ones. So if i could get the looks of this with better running emulators in the background id be set
Can you make a video on how to configure the control panel buttons on a DIY arcade machine please.. I tried joytokey but its not working, it recognizes both joysticks but wont let me map them, Im using an easyget arcade buttons kit.
downloading hyperspin right now for my bartop arcade cabinet and i have a butt load of games nes snes genesis gba mame n64 ps1 dreamcast and im running hyperspin on my windows 7 pc will that work
Hi. Thanks for the awesome tutorials. I have a bit of a problem and hope you can assist me please. I have Windows 10 and managed to set up HyperSpin with about 15 systems thanks to the knowledge you've shared with us. Everything worked well until Windows updated itself this past Tuesday. Now when in HyperSpin I can't get the games to start. All systems and all games...They work fine through Rocket Launcher though.
HyperSpin is still set as Default and Active Frontend in RocketLauncherUI. I can choose a system but when I select a game and press enter the little Free Play and Joystick icons/overlays move off screen for a second or so then it comes back. Other than that nothing else happens. This applies to all my systems. I will re-install the software you've requested and I'll let you know. Thank you again for taking the time...
I've re-installed HyperSpin 1.4.15 over my current install with no change. I'm a bit worried about installing HyperSpin 13.3 and RocketLauncher over my current setup because I'm afraid I might lose settings, etc. I'm contemplating starting from scratch with a complete fresh install if all else fails
The .net frameworks and such is beyond my level of expertise for the moment. I'll look into your HS forum suggestion. Thanks again for all your assistance and for taking the time. I'll be sure to let you know if/when I come right.
Hi, I know it's been a while for this video, but could make a video on how to add a reicast Dreamcast emulators (or similar MAME4droid APK) for Android Shield TV? Or a video that covers an Android box? I've been having a really hard time looking for a video for that.
Great video series. I followed things closely, all seemed fine, but cannot get MAME to launch. In reviewing the MAME Module notes, I'm a bit confused by the 'MAME BIOS' information. About all I can find online is some reference to the file called '3dobios.zip' - am I supposed to unzip this one specific file within the ROMS subfolder? Also, the notes state that MAME.exe should be in the ROMS subfolder, which also seems to vary from how things are normally arranged. Any tips you have on this topic would be very appreciated!
hyperspin and hyperlist websites will not load properly so i am unable to login. is there something wrong with the site? i tried 3 different browsers and none will load the site properly. all other links work fine
Hello again i use HS and RL UI and if i loading game normal not HS and RL games working but if i load game in RL UI game not load I go back to the emulator and I can not run game not found missing rom but early working fine. Helps reassign the roms folder but by the time i try to run rom via RL UI back problem I will explode, yesterday everything worked and today no longer, same problem returned with the visibility of the roms in the wheel and nothing changed ;((
NOW their showing up; i regressed and found that my under my rocketlauncherui menu i did not have hyperspin as my active frontend. Thanks, and your videos are awesome!
I tried to follow your instructions set by step and got almost everything done but when it came to setting up the emulator like you have i get a error. so i ran as admin and still got the error. It says when i hit the Exe app it say "the program can't start because d3dx9_43.dll is missing. reload and try again. I went through the entire video again and i can't seem to find what i'm not doing that you are doing. Plus you seem to have more folders in your Nestopi zip like cheats and others all i have is language. Please help if you get a sec it would greatly be appreciated
The AV Archivist ok thank you I'll try to go thru the first setup again make sure I didn't miss something once I get home later tonight. thank you again for a fast responce and great video. I just got to get a little speed under me you go fast but I'll catch up. 😎👍
Two Videos in and I don't know how to launch MAME. I will agree that this is professionally done, but its WAY WAY WAY too much detail. This needs to be distilled down to the bare essentials.
@ 4:15 When I go to the Global emulators tab. None of that stuff with the red exclamation Shows up. I did everything u said from last time. What is wrong?
+The AV Archivist hmmmmm that's a good question. I don't think i do. but, I've been having the hardest time with Hyper spin forever. i just need a vid that can get to the point fast as possible. (No offense) maybe i can get some one to help me install through Skype or something 1 day. but anyway thanks for trying to help
Hello, I followed your first video and did everything as you showed, but now when i go on rocketlauncher\global and than emulators, nothing appears. i have zero emulators on global and any of the other systems. Any advice....???
I followed the previous tutorial how to install hs and rl and i thought everything went smooth as i followed all steps carefully. But in this video you have 20 systems found to the left and so do I. But when i click on global and go to the emulator tab everything is empty, there are no emulators. also when i click a specific console to the left there is also nothing. What am i missing?
WooW thx 4 this tutorial but i got 2 Question: - why my Hs not see my all roms, if i click HQ and navigation/themes and i mark roms only my HS not see roms but if i mark themes only see roms + themes ?? Second Question - Is there any counter to Hs that tells me how much I have in the game wheel because I'm not sure if Hs sees all my games. Im new in Hs world and now i configure my Arcade World Cab plis help me, in Hs forum, no one can help me, maybe because I'm not gold, or platinum user :(
If you set "Roms Only" you also need to set the rom folder and extension type in HyperHQ. Whatever is audited as there in RL will be there in HyperSpin unless you've filtered it out.
Omg working early i got same thing and not working and now working thank you very much. Plis tell me, In Hs is a script, a plugin that would show how many games are on the wheel because I'm not sure if Hs all see and counting each wheel will last forever: P
For some reason nothing is showing up in the GLOBAL section. I'm not sure what I did wrong, I have HyperSpin as my frontend checked already, so I have no clue. Any help would be great!
I fixed it, I don't know much on how this works, but there was a ton of other files in the settings for RocketLaunch, decided to delete everything from both HyperSpin and RocketLaunch and just retried, it worked and doesn't take long so it cool.
Please don't harass me but I did a bad thing. I bought a preconfigured hyperspin drive. Just have some questions before it comes in. I'm familiar with most of this but I haven't touched my arcade setup in 4 years and I'm dumping my old maximus arcade setup on my xp gateway computer. It took almost a month last time so I opted for a preconfigured drive since I know the x-gaming tankstick can cause all kinds of fun with emulators. Here's my questions. I'm wanting to add like 6 pc games I already have on my computer to hyperspin including Mortal Kombat X, Guilty Gear Sign, Street Fighter 5, and Killer Instinct. I'm planning on adding these to the pc games wheel but I may make a personal games wheel. Is there a way to easily automap the controls to these games? Not a huge deal as this is only 6 games. Don't flame me, I'll probably still pay eventually to support hyperspin but since I bought a drive I don't have a emumovies subscription. Is there a way to easily add media for these games? Any free sources or a way to do static images for example? When I add games I know I will have to map to the game exes and media but do I have to make any changes to the checkboxs and other settings in rocketlauncher normally? I don't have the drive yet and haven't used hyperspin before but just researching so I can easily be up and running. I plan on tackling this during the thanksgiving break.
Cores are essentially the same as the standalone emulator they're based on. More importantly though, this was filmed several years ago when RA wasn't in the state it is now. It's currently the best thing to use for pretty much everything thigh as it's become very convenient. I'll no longer be supporting HS but future work will encourage people to go with RA. RA also has built in Bliss Box functionality now so it's pretty indispensable.
@@chrismcmillon5510 it still has a modest GUI but with bigger things on the horizon. I'll likely not be focussing much on the FE side of gaming but I believe the next full Kodi release will feature full fledged libretro integration, though I haven't followed that closely. Tbh any of the existing FE's are fine but it's sort of a game you win by not playing, as they improve so much so fast still that whatever work people put in is sorta undone in the short term. Whatever people can live with that lets them actually play their games instead of spending months or years tinkering is, imo, ideal.
The idea of HyperSpin is pretty damn awesome, but why so much hassle, why not just work with the emulator creators and just have everything included in the package. I am now really turned off by this project entirely.
Nothing needs to be this complicated - another example of people working on the same project for too long and forget just how much they know and is unnecessarily over complicating software. Think I'll just run each emulator separately as I need it - don't want to waste 2 days just for a UI
RocketLauncher is literally the single most useless program on the face of the planet. It's just an overly complicated tool used to organize Hyperspin in an overly complicated way. When it's all said and done, it doesn't even do anything. You still have to double click the Hyperspin.exe file to use Hyperspin. So what's the point of RocketLauncher?
your voice quality is very clear and easy to understand. i hate when people make videos and you cant understand them so 2 thumbs up dude:]
That's because most people have shit microphones, or they're whispering to avoid waking up their parents
