GaryMcT's 2-player generic control panel layout

Pages: << < (62/70) > >>

Bender:

with the guide lines on there it's easy to see

Not sure how moving the joystick solves the problem (the wrist hitting the button, right?)

I think you could move the thumb buttons up (though that would mess up your defender layout)

GaryMcT:

The high-level idea is that I within a player, I need to move the thumb button and the joystick apart from each other on the X axis.  Moving the player 1 left a bit gives me a bit more room to work with. 

Moving the thumb button up a bit might help since it may help to clear my hand.  Might want to move it even more to the right.

I've decided to go with a special control panel for Defender/Stargate, so it's okay to move the thumb button away from the joystick.

Here's the problem:



Here's a layover of the last sketch to see where the button falls.  Still looks like it may not fix the problem, but it is close.  I may move the thumb buttons a touch more to the right to be sure.



On a different note, Bender, have you played Mad Planets on Benderama?  This game is new to me, and looks pretty darn cool. .  I don't have the right controls for it yet though.  Looks like it needs exactly what you have already!  Also, are you able to play Frontline on Benderama?  And lastly, you got my PM/email from a week or so ago, yes?  Just want to make sure. :)


Bender:

AH, I see!

that is tight, up and to the right, and make sure that button isn't mapped to anything

I got Mad Planets working perfectly (that is a fun game)
Front Line in mame is looking for 2 joysticks I want to set it up for 1 joystick and 1 spinner but can't figure out how to do it
Is there a way to edit what controls are listed (not the editable ones in the TAB menu)



GaryMcT:

I think you'd have to modify code to make a spinner work if it isn't already there. I'll put that one on the backburner too.

If you ever decide to sell u360 mods for your topfire mod, let me know!  :)

Bender:

Leapinlew did it for Gryruss and Time pilot so cool!
I'd love to do that on a few games

I'll trade you
some game mods diffs for a U360 mod
