I have 2 sets of pedals so I'll be using J1Y and J2Y for the side 1 and 2 respectively.  Will this work?

Is there a better way to get 2 sets of pedals iinto mame?  Could I hack a dual strike and re-map the one axis?   thoughts anyone?

Should work, especially if you don't plan to unplug and re-plug in the pedals (gameport loses calibration).

If you are running Win98, be sure to wire a momentary button to the gameport so you can calibrate the pedals.

There's DaveB's AKI - http://dave.bit2000.com/

But that only gives you one set of pedals (I think), or you could hack a gamepad joystick for one set and a dual strike for the second, or two dual strikes . . .

The AKI actually has 5 axis inputs, so it will run two sets of pedals, or one set of pedals with an x-y-z yoke.

Not sure if it interests you, but I wired up some pedals as from the BYO wheel/pedals site...

I found that even in XP, I was losing calibration, and the cursor in the Control Panel test screen was pretty jittery...

I tried a Gameport > USB converter that I had lying around, and it fixes it a treat!  The cursor doesn't jitter around, and the calibration stays spot on.  Oh and incidentally, I don't ever disconnect the pedals as they are a permanent fixture in my cab.

I also have 2 AKI's for other controls, and I must say they are a lot easier and work a treat also :)
