[SOLVED] LED Blinky + Demul + RL

[Endprodukt]

Hey, first post so thanks to everyone who helped making all this possible. Awesome!

I recently upgraded my whole system and ran into a couple of problem that I solve one after another.

Right now LED Blinky does what it's supposed to be except for Naomi/Atomiswave. Since it works in Mame and other emulators, I feel like it might have something to do with Demuls module or something RL related but I'm not sure.

I read a thread about the "4 -> exit" problem with hyperspin. I think that's exactly what's happening with Demul and Atomiswave. Example:

I start DOA, it has it's own LED Blinky settings. The game will launch and LED Blinky will blink the buttons that have to be used and say what they are. So far so good. But after it did that, the buttons will go back to the Hyperspin setting. This is just happening mit the Demul 0.7 module.

Now what's strange about all this is how HS behaves when you start a game, too. This is my example log from hs:

Rocketlauncher starts DOA2. LED Blinky does so, too. When I start the game though I can see how Hyperspin spins up by ONE. That's the "crzytaxi" line. It's the game above DOA2. I have no idea why Hyperspin does that.

Might this all be a focus problem?

I really hope someone can help. If I should rather go to the LED Blinky forums, let me know - I'm not so sure this is an LED Blinky problem to begin with.

Thanks again!

Olli

Does the same behavior happen when launched from rlui?

I'm afraid it's not. I activated LED Blinky through rlui and launched DOA and it worked. Having LED Blinky activated in rlui + hyperspin would result in 2x blinking the controls for the game, than going back to hyperspin. I don't think that rlui or hyperlaunch is the problem but them working together or something. I don't know. Looking at the HS Log launching any Naomi/atomiswave game makes it behave strangely. Whish I'd understand a little more of how everything works to get a little further on something that worked so good before.

Okay I have absolutely no idea why, but it works now. I really didn't do anything. I activated LED Blinky in rlui, also fade in. Dectivated it so LED Blinky is beeing controlled by HS again. Works now. As much as I like that it works I wouldn't know what to do if it stops working.
