Greetings programs,
I am a HS user (several years now) and I have a friend with a 7 year old who wants a simple, small arcade setup. I d/loaded Mala yesterday and got it all set up with his own customized arcade screen and about 75 Mame games, all working great. Piece of cake.
I have an Atari 2600 USB plug-n-play joy that I will be giving him for his arcade.
Getting the joy to work in Mame was simple and it's all running perfectly.
Now, I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the same joy to switch through and select a game in the main Mala menu. I've tried setting up the different settings in OPTIONS, KEYBOARD, and JOYSTICK but when the field turns gray (ready to accept my keypress) nothing happens when I push directions on the Atari joystick.
I'm sure this is an easy fix but I feel I've tried next to everything I know to try.
Any help for this (likely simple) problem I'm having would be awesome.
Thanks, you all rock!!
