Title: Joytokey issues with Rocketlauncher/Hyperspin
Post by: JudgeRob on November 13, 2017, 04:44:52 pm
Hi there,

Strange issue with joytokey.  When I enable it in Rocketlauncher, I get the following issue.  When starting a game in Hyperspin, the game will launch but it launches in the background.  The screen flashes but goes back to Hyperspin screen while MAME runs in a separate background window.

I've set joytokey to open and run in minimized mode, so it does not open its own window.  And if I disable joytokey in Rocketlauncher, everything seems to work fine. 

Any ideas about why joytokey is causing this behavior?

Finally came across this:

I have no idea why, but setting the logging level to "troubleshooting" fixes the problem.  I can't imagine what the connection is.  I just hope it isn't an issue leaving it at this setting forever... ?

FYI, in case anyone else has this problem, there is a better fix.  Enable fade in Rocketlauncher.  I had fade disabled and had the problems with the focus, etc. when joytokey was enabled.  For some reason enabling fade allows joytokey to work fine.
