Hmm ok. Should I unmap all the diagonals then? Unmap it in general? |

Test Results - When I test a button in notepad (including the up/down/left/right), the MOMENT i hear "click" the item happens immediately. When I set button 1 or left or anything within mame (config panel), I will hear the "click" sound and about 1.5 seconds later mame changes my button. Now I know there isnt a 1.5 second lag within the games, but this issue of not throwing a fireball consistently could be related. I took a picture of my joystick and I did notice (thanks to Randy), that there is "wiggle" room in the joystick before the "click" sound. I am not sure if there is a way to tighten this. Actually joystick 2 is worse than joystick 1. P.S. here is a picture of my rig too :) |

You are in luck. You can adjust the metal levers on those switches to take out any slop. You can do this by pushing the lever all the way down until it's flat against the top of the switch body, and while holding it there tightly, bend the metal lever up just a bit. Do this until you have it so that it just makes contact with the joystick actuator when centered. If you do this on all of the switches, it should tighten up the action. Also, before you start tweaking the switches, make sure you don't have the actuator upside down. The larger end is the one that should be against the levers. RandyT |

RandyT --- End quote --- Umm i think it may be upside down. I put this together about 6 years ago and I dont remember how to put them together and take them apart lol. Here is a picture. The larger area is not touching the metal levers... the smaller area is. |
