Dumb Question- Turning on TBs/Spinners

Pages: (1/4) > >>

eyal8r:

Running Analog+ w/ 2 TBs and 2 Spinners. I believe everything is wired up correctly here- I just don't know how to turn on the things in Mame!  I know I go to the Tab menu- and I can get to the part where you tell it, say, which buttons on the keyboard go to which on the CP, etc- but on the trackball part- it says trackball x and trackball 2, tracball 3, etc.  I hit enter to change the setting (currently shows nothing in there)- how do I tell it to recognize the other TB and spinner?  It recognizes player 2 TB just fine, but not player1's. Can someone tell me how to turn on each TB and Spinner in Mame?
Thanks

This is a very interesting question im currently at the point of putting my trackerball together wiring it up looks tricky but not even thought about configuring it guess i just thought it would automatically work  :(

Bones:

Isn't a trackball just identfied as a mouse by Windows & Mame? I thought it was just a case of selecting mouse control?

Tiger-Heli:

MAME32, right?

Status Bar - Options - Default Game Options -  Controllers Tab - Check "Enable Mouse Input"

- - -

Commandline MAME - run MAME -cc from the C:\MAME> prompt, then edit mame.ini to set

Mouse    1

Dang- I keep doing this- I gotta be more specific here...  lol!

Nope, running Analog+ on XP. I have the 'enable mouse input' turned on in options- but, I think the problem is in the Tab menu. Trackball X has something like Up Arrow + J1 button, and the same for the other Trackball X feature, and nothing set for the Trackball 2 and above features. I think that's the problem, I just don't know what to type in there to tell it to turn them on. Maybe U-Rebel_Scum can help me out? lol...
thanks guys!
