MAME multiple mouse support

Pages: (1/4) > >>

Derrick Renaud:

XP - PS/2, serial, and USB mice can all be indivually selected as controllers.

Win98/Me with DX7 and up.  USB mice only can be selected as individual controllers. 

Actually my Win98SE test system did not work with DX7, but did with DX8.  That might have been due to some remaing parts of Logitech Mouseware.

Logictech Mouseware drivers should not be used.  They disable multi-mouse support.

[EDIT] Mouseware seems to not cause any problems on XP.  But it will bugger other versions of Windows.  DO NOT report bugs while mouseware is installed.

Kremmit:

That's great!  It's a fix that's been needed for a long time.

Question:

Two mouse limit, or more? 

3-player Rampart wants 3 independent trackballs.

Cananas:

Again, thanks, Derrick.

Working great on my LapTop with Windows XP2 with 2 usb mouses connected. (Even works on Mameplus ;))

Jake Stookey was supposed to get co-credit on this part, because I based the code on his raw_mouse.c code.  I feel bad that it was not.  And the readme should be fixed for next version.

Of course. Also many thanks to Jake.
And thanks to all the people tried to implement in mame out previously.

in src\windows\input.c

MAX_MICE = 8

Make it 53 and recompile if you want.  ;D

So no, there is no 2 MOUSE limit.

Lilwolf:

SWEET!  I'm starting my 53 trackball control panel when I get home... SWEET!

Now I can finally try runing 25 marble madness windows at once and one centipede on one system for those BIG parties where everyone wants to play at once!
