Build 0.8.0.0 was just released and is usable as a FE out of the box after you set your paths. You don't have to do anything else to it if you don't want to. --- End quote --- Does it just run VP and Daphne by setting one path each? |

If you know how to script for AutoHotKey then you can add anything you want. VP isn't included with the standard setup in HyperSpin right now, but it is easily added. I have asked Bill to add VP into the official HyperSpin release, so hopefully soon it will be. But in the mean time someone has already integrated VP into the launcher and it works great. If you would like it I can zip up my VP settings/folders for HS and post it. Daphne is a cinch to setup as long as your framefiles are correct. I have every Daphne game setup (including Roadblasters) and each game has its own theme. |

And what do you mean by someone has integrated it in the launcher?....I'd think that means I can just follow the normal process and set a path or two and then it runs, right? --- Quote ---Daphne is a cinch to setup as long as your framefiles are correct.

I just point to Daphneloader and it runs - except it doens't with most FEs. Even with MaLa, though I tried, it was much more effort than that and then it didn't work so I just gave up. One-click or death for me. |

I've tried Mamewah, MaLa and GameEx so far....but I'm gonna give Hyperspin a go soon as well. Mamewah was good but when I tried it, lacked alot of zazzy features. Simple but effective. And some customization. GameEx was good, but too heavy in the features department. I felt like it was Windows...too much that I didnt need in my arcade cab. And not the easiest to setup. And its not 100% free. ;) Well it is free...if you can put up with a 15 second nag screen at the beginning. MaLa so far has been the great middle ground. It has features you can implement if you want, but if not you don't have to...and you dont have to look at them. And it took me almost no time to get my own simple theme setup and running mame. Hyperspin from what I understand looks really cool, but I've yet to give it a full on test on my arcade cab. I'll be giving it a try this weekend for my fighter cab. I've gotta ask about Hyperspin though...I've got only Fighters in my cab. About how long would it take me initially to set up Mame & Naomi and a couple of pc game to have all the themes, videos and whatnot? |
