joychoose issue
« on: September 17, 2013, 09:30:32 pm »
hi all,

FINALLY getting around to adding switching 4/8 way sticks but am running into a small issue.  FYI, i am using ultimarc's excellent servo kit (installed on a U360).

first up, andy's software JoyTray works just fine.  i can test and select 8 0or 4 way and the arm spins in the appropriate direction.

same thing with the joychoose mala plug in.   when i load it from within mall and test, all good.

now i get to selecting a game.  first up, donkey kong.  the servo spins when starting and exiting the game but it spins in the SAME direction.  so basically, the servo is stuck trying to spin but it can't.

i have mala pointing to the contyrols.ini file, i'm not sure what's going on. 

any help?

See "When game ends" section at bottom.  Set to Don't Use.

i just tried this and it still behaves the same.  in fact, it was already set to "don't use" but i tried switching to 8 way, quitting, restarting, same thing.  set it back to "don't use", quit, restart, same thing.

any other suggestions?  can't wait to get this up and running!

What are your settings in joychoose?

(Program called for 8 way and 4 way and arguments, if any)

Can you post a screen shot of the joychoose setup?

ControlChoose emailed to you. See if you have the same issues with it.
