X- Arcade trackball help PLEASE
(1/4) > >>
skyblast:
I'm trying to figure out how to get my trackball to work on my xarcade.  It works fine as a mouse but not with Centipede or any other trackball games.

Any ideas

Vista
Maximus
mame32 0.106.0.0

Thanks

you need to alter your mame.ini file

trackball_device          keyboard               'change this to mouse'

ok, sorry to ask for more detail but I'm still a bit confused.

When I open up the ini I see lists like this

mouse           1
joystick          0

etc.

Should I add the word       trackball_device        1

....like this?

It doesn't look like I even have the word keyboard in my list?

Thanks for all of your help
