Actually, I have a noname32.ini file and a mame32.ini file in the INI directory and the same noname32.ini file and a mame32ui.ini file in the main MAME folder.
--- Quote ---Do you use the Mame32 version of NoName Mame or the command prompt version?

Normally I run command prompt thru EmuLoader under Win98. For you, I am testing NoNameMAME32 under Win2K, but the mouse isn't recognized at all (but the tab menu does show up).
--- Quote ---Currently I have only had it set in the "MAME32.ini" file .... maybe I need to set it manually in the "NoName32xp.ini" file as well?
--- End quote ---
I would think that would be a good idea.
--- Quote ---Maybe you can tell me which version of NoName mame you are using and what you complete NoName INI file looks like .....
--- End quote ---
NoNameMAME 0.80u1.08 (Mar17, 2004). See attached, renamed .ini to .txt (I hope).

Agreed.
Try to play Centipede with the windows mouse. If that works go from there . . .

Mine and your INI file locations are the same, although I am using the "NoNAme32xp.ini" file instead since I am running on WinXP.
When I get home (I am at work now) I will try manually setting the "mouse" option in the NoName32xp.ini file and see what happens
BTW: I noticed in your "NoName32.ini" file that the "inipath" option is commented out.

Nope, it came that way.
--- Quote ---PS: If your up to it, maybe you could download the NoName Mame32 version 0.81.0.9 and see if that executable gives you the appropriate Mouse menu settings after pressing TAB. If it does, then I guess my problem is a WInXP specific problem. Also, in order to test a later version of NoNameMame, you can simply download the ZIP file, unzip it into a temp directory then try to play Pong (since you need no Roms for that game so no setup is really required) and see what happens. Of course you need to generate an INI file via "-cc" and place it in a INI directory.

Okay - I got that working - sortof, but it wasn't simple.
Here's what I did - downloaded 0.81.09 for XP - wouldn't even open although I thought 2K and XP used similar cores.
Downloaded the 32 version for regular Windows. Copied the NoName32.ini file to the main .exe folder. Started PONG, no mouse options, but I noticed that if I went into controllers (in the MAME32 GUI) and checked "Use Mouse", it wouldn't keep the setting - i.e. open the menu and it is unchecked again.
Created an ini folder and moved noname32.ini into it - No luck.
Opened NoName32 - Selected options - directories and told it where the INI folder was. No luck, but I did notice a mame32.ini file showed up in the INI folder. Edited this to say Mouse 1, BINGO - New Mouse Axes tab when I launched PONG.

When I ran my NoName32xp.exe, I selected the "Controllers" tab then set "Enable Mouse" and "Enable Lightgun" then clicked the APPLY button .....
