For now, that shouldn't make a difference since MAME doesn't see any mouse devices yet.

First get MAME to recognize mice, then enable multimouse if you want/need to isolate the mouse inputs.

Not sure if it makes a difference, but mine doesn't have the ".;"

I don't see anything else in there that might cause problems.   :dunno

--------
If there's a "centiped.ini" file, delete it, launch Centipede again, and try mapping the mouse controls again.
-- In the "Controls (this Game)" menu, does "Track X Analog" show up as "Mouse X" or something else?
-- Can you remap other controls like P1 Button 1?

--------
If that doesn't work, you might need to delete mame.ini and generate a new one using "mame -cc".

--------
If that doesn't work, did you download MAME from MAMEDEV or is it a GUI build like MAMEUI or MAMEUIFX?

coppermouse:
multimouse 1 did not help. I downloaded mame64.exe from mame dev. I deleter centipede config and it still will not map

Titchgamer:
Hmm
What track ball u using? Though tbh ime running out of ideas?

Is it just centipede u having trouble with or any game?

PL1:
Try these 4 steps:

1. Delete mame.ini, generate a new one with "mame -cc", and only change mouse to "1" in the new mame.ini. (fresh ini file with only one change made = best chance of success)

2. In the "Controls (this Game)" menu, does "Track X Analog" show up as "Mouse X" or something else? (tests if MAME recognizes that mouse is supposed to be enabled)

3. Can you map a different keystroke to P1 Button1?  (verifies that MAME can remap controls)

4. If so, when you exit MAME and re-launch it, does it retain the re-mapped key? (tests if MAME files are set to "read only")
