there's going to be a button that lets you order pizza, you set it up in the ini, you can pick between pizza hut, papa johns, or dominos since they are the most popular and they have the web ordering thing, then there is a section in the ini for type and toppings and such. So when you are playing if you get hungry you press and hold that button for 5 seconds and the order is transmitted. It'll be good for those who normally order the same thing each time. Interesting feature I think.

OMG

BBB didnt tell me he was adding these features. I cant wait for new version. This will make HS the most flexable FE to date in the arcade community.

I hope he adds support for Wendy's, McDonalds, and BK in future versions.

I bet some are wondering where I been and what Ive been doing, Ive fixed several bugs coming up for the next release, but the main thing I've been working on is a new version of HyperHQ, we need to get over the hurdle of ease of use, and this will make it alot easier. I wanted to wait until i could hear back from the author of HQ but he is no longer around it appears, and hasnt replied to any of my emails. So I am rewriting HQ from scratch and so far its coming along pretty good.

For the next release here are a couple notes:

0.6.0.7

Fixed where artworks display only if theres and xml entry for that artwork. This prevents showing artwork from 2 installed themes for the same game. Now only the last installed theme will show its arwork.

Fixed Exit program not writing to the log when quitting HS not via the exit menu.

Fixed Vertical wheel style starting out to fast and not the normal speed.

Fixed bug with default artworks not clearing when coming to a game with theme greater than 2 games away.

Added HyperSpin fixes all ini files on startup, adding new settings, fixing any improper values, and adds missing sections and keys. So no more adding new settings as i come out with them.

Added LED Blinky support.

Added Option to disable exit menu.



Todo before release still:

Fix last theme not showing up when using the themes only feature.
A couple other small things.

Any plans in the future for adding some u360 mapping support?

cheers!

I think arzoo has support for the ultrastik in ledblinky, so even if you dont have blinky lights you can still use it for the ultrastik support. And since we now support ledblinky then I guess you'll be good to go.

LED and Ultrastik mappings is HUGE! For me anyway. Can't wait. Are you going to allow us mouse support and if so, can I assign mouse buttons to HS functions such as "exit" or will it just be for scrolling through the menu? Thanks again for all the hard work!

Its possible, but might not make it into the next release.
