Issue with Mame132 and X-Arcade Tankstick
slik50:
After talking with X-Arcade I did what they suggested by re-installing Mame132 from scratch again. The issue I am having is with Mame not recognizing my Player 2 controls/inputs. I have used the X-Arcade test utility and have tested via output to notepad and the player 2 controls are recognized yet when I open a game and review my mapping settings they are all accurate to the correct setting X-Arcade uses, however, "Player 2" is blackened or greyed out for some reason from within the gaming menu. I've also switched the Numlock back and forth to make sure that was not the issue. So, when attempting to play a 2 player game even though the game settings for the player 2 x-arcade are set to the defaults both the joystick and buttons have no response. For some reason when player 2 comes up it is playing through the Player 1 defaults or Player 1 joystick/buttons.
Is there a file i need to edit so that Player 2 controls/defaults are recognized?
Thanks,
Justin

addtl info:
Mame132 actually includes the X-Arcade.cfg file and had the options pre-populated under Controls in Mame.

Can you post a screenshot of where it is grayed out? I would like to see it, might help.

I am thinking it has something to do with editing a particular file so Mame can recognize?

Epyx, I will try and get a screenshot posted later tonight. It has all the other players listed in "white" text but Player 2 is "grayed or darkened" out. You can still select and edit the settings but Player 2 still remains darkened out.
example:
From using "TAB" and reviewing controls
Player 1
Player 2
Player 3
Player 4
Player 5
Player 6
