Hi Everyone. This is my first post. I appreciate any help you can give me. I'm a complete noob and just built my first cabinet. I’ve got almost everything running, but I’m having problems with my trackball on just two games, Centipede and Millipede. If I play Missile Command or some other trackball game, everything works just fine.
The problem I’m having is the player “fighter” moves along the x-axis just fine, but it wants to float to the top of the y-axis as the trackball slows down. So, if I roll the trackball fast down, it will go down to the bottom. As the trackball slows, the fighter will move to the top even though the trackball is still moving down. The fighter won't stay at the bottom of the playing field.
I’ve looked everywhere and can’t find a solution. I’ve tried to change the settings for that specific machine, but nothing I do fixes the issue. Has anyone run into this? Anyone have any recommendations on what I should try?
My set up is:
Attract mode with RocketLauncher
Centipede revision 4 & Millipede 1982
Mame64 – Mame .185
Ultimarc Trackball running through an Ipac Ultimate board
Mame.ini has mouse enabled multi-mouse enabled
I have set configured the trackball and it works on other games.
It is so frustrating to be so close. Thanks in advance for you help.
