Hi All,

I'm trying to get an Ultimarc trakball and spinner working with their I-Pac Ultimate I/O board connected to a Raspberry Pi. I'm watching Maverik Arcade's video, and he simply says to edit a line in mame.ini. I can't find mame.ini anywhere, and I keep seeing "look in C:\mame" everywhere - Raspberry Pi is not Windows.

Thanks

PL1

Mame.ini isn't created automatically when you install MAME.

Run your MAME executable with the "-cc" (create config) software switch to generate mame.ini. i.e. "mame.exe -cc"
- You only need to do this once.
- You should find mame.ini in the "mame" folder or "ini" sub-folder.
