CPViewer Support

[Mad_Skillz]

I am not sure whether it is supported or not, but the program CPViewer http://www.cpviewer.emuchrist.org/index.html
is something i would like to see implemented. I am building my first cabinet and HyperSpin is the only FE i would like to use, and having CPViewer support would also fulfill another one of my goals in building my arcade machine. Thanks and hopefully you can look into it :)

I'm sure we can get that to work, I need to add support for something like that soon.

It should work.. Cpwizard by Ben Baker should also work.

Yes any FE with a launch before/after type command line option support can work with CPWizard :)

Well I guess were in good shape.. Thanks for the wonderful program.. :)

I'm sure Dazz was a CPWizard fan, so maybe he's tested it with HS. Will have to see how it goes.

For other emulators it does need to have the name sent via command line but for Mame it doesn't need any command line sent at all as it detects the ROM name from Mame's titlebar.

Also CPWizard can export your CP design as a set of bezels which you can view when you pause Mame (just need to apply the bezel patch from the CPWizard website). Using bezels means you don't have to run CPWizard at all as the CP's are bezels viewed as overlays in Mame itself.

So there is no doubt in my mind that it will work with HS.
