Upgrading to HyperLaunch 2.0

[BladeZX]

OK I currently have pretty much all of my systems up and running very well with HL 1.0

I am a little scared now to mess with it because all code right now is working nicely but I would like to upgrade to HL 2.0 to be ready for the future release of HS 2.0.

Can someone please point me in the right direction for a painless upgrade? Is there a step by step for upgrading the HL 2.0?

Thx

Nothing more than the main post. Most modules can be downloaded from the HL 2.0 exe when you run it, or they are found in that thread.

[Dreygor]

I like the individual modules instead of packing everything into one huge file. Much easier for trouble shooting when something goes wrong.

[Dazz]

No compiling necessary unless you make changes to the main script. Also, no IF/Else statements to worry about.

Backup your old HL script in case there is a system you have working you can't live without that hasn't been ported to 2.0

[BladeZX]

Wow a lot of work but most are done and working.

I still have Daphne to do (which is a royal pain in the butt)

[Dreygor]

Heh, hasnt been to bad. So far the only one I can't manage to get up and running in HL 2.0 is Makaron for Sega Naomi.

But, chillinwater is the man when it comes to scripting!

I actually use the Stella one from this post. It works really well.

My first guess is if you are you using "daphne loader.exe" DONT.
Point HyperHQ to use "daphne.exe" (its the cl version)

Post your "working" Makaron HL 1.0 script and I convert it and test it for you. (may be one out there already)
There are so many different script versions and variations for Makaron, I dont know which one you want to use.

[edit] I have a bare bones no frills version for Naomi Makaron t12-5 if you or anyone's interested in that.

[Sn4tcH]

Wrong post.

Move Along.

[Dreygor]

Chillin, I'll take your bare bones no frills Naomi Makaron t12-5. I pretty much only use Naomi for the fighting games so I don't need a screen rotator or anything fancy.

The script I was using was for HL 1.0 was from one of your threads. When I switched to HL 2.0 I dumped / deleted my old set up completely so I don't have it anymore.

Will MAME work properly and save hi scores now using HL 2.0?

[chillinwater]

I remember reading somwhere that Mame does save hi-scores usingi HL 2.0
Havent tested for it but pretty sure (99.9%) it does.
And Dazz is always telling people to move to HL2.0 when they have troubles saving in HL 1.0.
(btw it is possible to save using HL 1.0, hoop, jump)

For Naomi Makaron,
Start with this...
Its easy enough to add other features if any one else wants them.
I personally like them but just wanted to put out a simple script that can grow with everyones different needs.
Just compare the working feature-filled HL1.0 scripts and add away to this HL 2.0 script for those features you want.
- hideDesktop() isnt enough blackscreen for my taste (yes its in there twice).
- since there is nothing in this script to write to any configuration files...
you have to have Makaron running the way you want it. i.e. for fullscreen before using it in HS!
- tested with T12-5 but dont see why it wouldnt work with other versions.
(maybe the sendinput keys in closeprocess are different)

[Sega Naomi.ahk]-Naomi Makaron T12-5


;----------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Sega Naomi
; naomi.exe (Makaron T12-5)
; chillinwater
; .5
; Notes:
;seed module, add other features from other HL 1.0 scripts, i.e. screen rotate, nvram, controls and other settings.
;----------------------------------------------------------------------------
hideDesktop()
Run, %executable% "%romPath%%romName%%romExtension%", %emuPath% ;, hide, UseErrorLevel
Process, waitClose, %executable%
winactivate, Hyperspin
ExitApp

CloseProcess:
hideDesktop()
sendInput, {f8}
sleep, 1000
sendInput {ALTDOWN}{f4}{ALTUP}
return
