Back on topic.... About the 49way ->4way and how to make it work better.

I have always questioned if the 'matrix' was static.

Dear Andy's "Mom",

Please enlighten your "son" as to how deliberate denegration of competitors products, jumping into announcement threads for those same products with inaccurate negative comments,  veiled insults, and condescending comments  like "Unfortunately, as I suspected, just like one of those Rottweilers that, when you pat them and say "nice doggie" they bite you on the leg, things turned nasty."  is very likely to cause someone who is not enamored by his supposed "prowess" to very possibly jump down his throat.

Thank You,
RandyT

In addition, how else would you interface a steering wheel, pedals or other analogue device without using a gamepad in Windows? Yes it's a gamepad interface, but primarily an interface for analogue controls.

Well, thank you for validating my earlier points.

You said the A-PAC was in development months ago, and the GP-Wiz thread didn't exist, but only about a month ago, (in the GP-Wiz (not GP-Wiz49) thread) Andy stated that gamepads didn't work well in MAME as an interface.  So he was saying they didn't work well at the same time he was developing (or getting ready to release) a product based on the concept.

Andy are you gonna take that?  He just questioned the very nature of your upbringing.  He's basically saying your mom is inadequate as a parent.  I think you should respond for the sake of your family.

Actually, you missed it.  I'm sure Andy's Mom is a nice lady (as is mine, believe it or not) It was mrdriver who I was responding to, apparently taking the role.  See meaning of "quotes" around things.

Ahh well...if you have to explain, it doesn't work......
