Sadly not, I swapped the microswitch over and still getting the same problem, now I really have no idea apart from trying to re-program the minipac again to see if its that.

Kaytrim:

Don't forget to check your MAME config.  I had a similar problem with another control and that is where the problem was.

Razor:

Hi its not working at a windows level, even before mame.  I tried the alternate method of programming the minipac using "Cntrl-Alt-P" and when trying to program the "right" direction it wont even allow me to do that, which would point to the microswitch in my eyes, but as I said ive swapped it around with a brand new one  :-\

Razor:

Okay ive just totally wiped out all registry entries to the minipac, and reprogrammed from scratch again, still wont let me press right to even program it.  I tried a third microswitch, just in case it was possible I had 2 duds, but still no joy.  If the wires are working okay and the problem doesnt lie with the microswitches, does that mean its the minipac?  If so I dont understand how, ive checked the minipac over just in case, I cant see anything thats broken, or any bent pins.

BobA:

Since you have gone over the switches and the minipac multiple times and still have a problem with the right switch on the jstick you might want to check the wiring again.  If you connected to the microswitch with connectors maybe the crimp has come loose and the wires are not making good contact.  If you have a connector on the minipac end maybe a wire has come unseated there.  To check from joystick to minipac you could use a dvm or multimeter to measure the continuity across the switch by measureing ohms between the connector pin that the right joy stick contact is on and ground.

Did you make your own cable or did you purchase the ultimarc cable?
