| VERY stupid question: How do I select my Trackball in MAME ? |

OK, this will probably be the most stupid question of today, but what the heck: I've wired up my Suzo 5.72cm (sorry, metric sizes used here ;) ) trackball through an old Optipac and it works beautifully in Windows. Now, how do I get it to be selected in games like Marble Madness, Centipede and Missile Command ? It is still using my joysticks now. I'm using plain command line MAME with Mamewah as front-end. I've looked for the settings but can't figure out how to actualy select the mouse (which this is for the system I guess ?). This has to be a no-brainer but I'm just overlooking it I guess.....and I want to play Marble Madness the way it's supposed to be for the very first time in my life :):):) |

Try looking at your MAME.ini file in your MAME directory. In this .ini file, look for a setting that looks like... mouse=0 Try changing it to... mouse=1 Not sure, but maybe Mamewah also has this option under the Mamewah.ini file. Look for it in the Mamewah directory. I really can't remember the Mamewah .ini file on this. I don't think it has this (I think it relies on your MAME.ini file), but it's worth a look-see. I hope this helps you. |

It's in the mame.ini in your main mame folder. Come on rookie ;D: ### Input device options ### mouse 1 joystick 1 lightgun 0 dual_lightgun 0 offscreen_reload 0 steadykey 0 |

OK, thanks guys... I'll try it, play a few games and then go hang myself in shame ;D ;D ;D |

Also, if you dont have a mame.ini ( i didnt) you have to type mame cc at a command prompt. I believe that is the right syntax, if not I am certain someone will correct me :) LOn |
