Need some help with CPWizard and Mame
« on: June 11, 2017, 09:16:21 pm »
We are running Mame 161 and Mala 174 on an HP Pentium H8-1010.

We finally got everything working from a Mala/Mame standpoint. Not being a Windows or DOS person it was a little confusing. Lots of the stuff we read online seemed to assume we knew a lot more than we did.

We would like to enable or install two final things:

We finally got CPWizard working and figured out how to set up our custom CP with our buttons and joysticks. But we still haven’t figured out how to put in the spinner and the trackball.

We would like to use Headsoft’s “ShowCP” plugin to display our CP setups on “pause” in Mame. We don’t seem to have a Mame Plugins folder or plugins.ini file and we don’t know where the exported (as bezels) CP layouts need to be.

Any help the fine folks here could offer would be great! Try to remember that we are not PC experts

Thanks
