Hyperspin opens minimized when autostarting from sleep
« on: April 23, 2020, 07:04:22 pm »
So, I recognize that this may not be the best place for this post, but it seems that the Hyperspin site has been down for a few days (it's not just me, is it?) also the front end support section of this forum didn't seem to have a Hyperspin thread, so here I am.

Definitely redirect me if appropriate.

Anywho, Hyperspin runs fine when opened up normally (in Windows 10). I followed some online guide on how to autostart when waking up from sleep mode --long story short, my laptop monitor is smashed and I can't get into the BIOS to set it to turn on with power-- when it wakes up from sleep, I hear the Hyperspin intro video start normally, but nothing is displayed. I assume it's running minimized. Are there certain parameters I should tell windows to run with the hyperspin.exe?

Just spitballing here but it might be more beneficial to turn off sleep mode to never sleep and then just turn your TV monitor off when you are not playing.

I run HS and have freeze problems if HS is running when the computer sleeps. But again, I just turn off the CRT and have a trackball and shifted buttons to use mouse clicks.

Sorry that I am not any help with this.
