Configuring MAME to use a spinner...
(1/1)
Sinner:
Is there a special version of MAME needed to set up a spinner??

Here are my options...I have an opti-pac and could build or buy a spinner to attach to it...

The other option is to buy Slik Stik's Tornado, which has a USB connection...

Either way I assume, that I need to configure MAME to recognize the spinner, or to use it for a specific game...I looked in the configs, and I didn't really see anything...I assume I would want to be able to adjust sensitivity and stuff too...
Can someone suggest where I can find this information?? (I did some searching on the board and I don't see what I need)...
Thank you,

Matt

fire up TEMPEST/Centipede/Missile Command and use your mouse for now. You'll see the Sensitivity setting when TAB is pressed under Analog settings. MAke sure mouse =1 in the INI file.

Thanks...would that be the same for all games???  I tried using a mouse for Arkanoid once, and it wouldn't work...
Lilwolf:
Yes thats it.

You may have changed the configuration for a given game to use the arrow keys (for instance). 

You also can't configuration the mouse buttons when paused (which can give the illusion that the mouse isn't workign)
