--- Quote from: unclet on May 16, 2005, 11:09:08 am ---Basically, if you never clicked APPLY, then you really never changed anything and the "MAME32.ini" file would not be created. When you went to click on the "Directory" tab and enter an INI path and saved that, then this is when the "MAME32.ini" file got created, since you made a change. Do you think this is what you were doing? --- End quote --- No, I'm sure I clicked Okay, and maybe apply, but I would have thought Okay would have worked. I think it probably has more to do with running the program under 2K with user rights but not admin rights and no access to the registry. --- Quote ---PS: I know I never did step (1) and I know my "NoName32xp.ini" file does not have "mouse=1", so I am anxious to see how these changes work together...... --- End quote --- Pretty sure from latest testing that mouse=0 in either file is enough to kill it. --- Quote ---One more thing ...... I just noticed that a lot of the options which are in your "MAME32.ini" are also listed in your "NoName32.ini" which you posted. Seems like a lot of the same settings are set in both INI files, so perhaps I need to set other things as well. Maybe that is the problem in WinXP, is that the "MAME32.ini" settings are not maintained in the "NoName32xp.ini" file. Just a thought .... :) --- End quote --- Worth checking out. |

Ok, my computer at work in Win2K, so now that it is lunchtime .... it only makes sense to play around .... I did get it to show me the "Mouse Axes" option after hitting Tab, however, I do not know what I am doing different. |

As soon as I get a power supply (should be tomorrow), I'll be able to set up a decently fast Windows machine and start coding my MAME derivative again. However, there is no way that computer has enough power to run Windows XP, not that I'd want to anyways. Newer versions did not require an XP specific version anyways, they worked just fine on both. Also, as for 2000 not running the XP version, that is expected. The XP version actually checks for Windows XP. |

IT IS NOW WORKING!!!!! :o It seems like I performed the same steps as before but this time it works. Seems like there is an order which must be followed in order to get it working, however, I did not test each different scenario out. Here is the order which I performed the setup and after this it worked: - Create the "C:\Mame32\ini" directory (if required) - Delete the "C:\Mame32\ini\MAME32.ini" file (if existing) - Delete the "C:\Mame32\MAME32ui.ini" file (if existing) - Unzip "noname-0.81.09-mame32xp.zip" into "C:\Mame32\" directory - Open a command prompt and go into the "C:\Mame32\" directory and perform the "noname32xp -cc" command manually. This created the "noname32xp.ini" file - Edit the "noname32xp.ini" file and set the following Analog Plus options: ### Analog+ options ### singlemouse 0 switchablemice 1 switchmiceaxes 1 splitmouseaxes 1 resetmouseaxes 0 lightgun2a 0 lightgun2b 0 multimouse_winxp 1 - Move the "noname32xp.ini" file into the "C:\Mame32\ini" directory - Double-click on the "noname32xp.exe" file to start the application. This should create the "C:\Mame32\MAME32ui.ini" file - Go into the "Options/Default Game Options/Controllers" and check "Enable Mouse Input" and "Enable Lightgun Input". Go into the "Options/Default Game Options/Miscellaneous" and uncheck "Use additional Game artwork". Click OK button. This will create the "C:\Mame32\ini\MAME32.ini" file - Go into the "Options/Interface Options" and set "Skip Disclaimer" and set "Skip Game Info", click OK button - Start up a dual mouse game (ie: Pong, Warlords, etc..) and click TAB and then go into "Mouse Axes" menu. NOTE: For some reason, the settings which are made inside the MOUSE AXES menu section are not saved after exitting the game and returning. As a result, I need to reset the mice everytime I want to go into a new dual mouse game. I can live with this, but it would nice to know if other people have this trouble ..... Anyway, I am now happy and have actually played my wife PONG ..... Thanks for your help !!!!!! Regards, UncleT |

I'm glad you got it working. In future versions I'll make documentation and testing higher priority. Previously my main priority was getting everything together and than released as fast as possible. |
