Because I like to program myself? And it's free. And It can launch homebrew games from the MAME wheel...

Not sure what you mean by 'homebrew', LEDBlinky will set maps for any game you can launch through Hyperspin without it having to built into a special tab in the app.

Some people enjoy re-inventing the wheel, so there isn't any talking to them.  Most of the "new" and "innovative" hyper-spin centric apps you see were first done by me over a decade ago only I made them generic so they would work with any fe, but people can't be bothered to use google I guess.  (Not this particular device, but the point still stands)

I'm not knocking any of the stuff btw... it all works, and works well.  I just don't understand why programmers in our hobby waste their precious time fixing problems that have already been fixed when there are so many other annoying problems they could tackle.

Can LEDBlinky run Fix It Felix Jr (a non MAME game) from the MAME wheel of Hyperspin?

You gotta be kidding with this one  :dunno

Howard_Casto:
No, sorry I'm not.  Again, use google. 

Advanced filtering system that can put any game from any emulator together on a single list and filter off anything based on any category.  Yup DK's external listgen did that and I made it external so anyone could use it.  The ability to launch problem games... yup had wrappers for that.  The ability to run web-based games.... check.  Pinball launchers, hacks to launch particular pc games.  It's all pretty much been there, done that at this point. 

Why didn't a make one to remap the U360?  Because LEDBlinky beat me to it (along with a command line app) and I take my own advice.  ;)

I'm not trying to be harsh, it's just after hearing the same questions over and over for 15 years or so you'd think people would wise up. Unless it's a brand new emulator or game, your problem has already surfaced and it's been dealt with by somebody.  I don't even direct people to my apps anymore, because when I do they ask me specifically how to set them up for their particular application even though they are well-documented and self-explanatory. 

I just worry about you man.  You are trying to make things so turn key that you've went down the "I'll support individual games automatically" rabbit-hole.  That's a way to burn yourself out.
