Title: Hyperspin goes to black and locks when I launch mame
Post by: SmokinGun on April 10, 2010, 07:07:10 pm

I was using hyperspin to scroll to a game in mame, and just before I got to it it locked and went to a black screen.  I pressed ctrl alt del and logged off the machine.  Logged back on, launched mame via hyperspin, same black screen.  I am unable to play any mame game at this point.

If I log off again and launch any other emulator, works fine.  I think the game it locked up on was rockclimber.  It looks like the animation for it makes hyperspin go crazy and lock

Is there a way to tell hyperspin to launch a different game when I open mame?  Maybe if I can get it to work if I get it off that particular game.

I turned on the start on random game option and got it working again.  I guess I'll steer clear of rockclimber...

remove that theme from the
\hyperspin\media\mame\themes -folder
and re-download and install it.
alot of the troublesome themes (from the new format conversion) have been redone.
That may, may be one of them.
