Mame analog joystick mapping vs. u360 firmware mapping?
Ummon:
Wait a minute. I thought that MAME would only apply mapping if the stick was in analog mode. This ain't so? Hmmm. Obviously it's not coded with the U360 in mind....but still.

I think mame sees the u360 as an analog stick regardless of the loaded map.

instead of the generic 8 way map, could you apply a generic analog map? the reason for this would be to make sure that the mame map never overlaps the u360 map.
if so, do you know the code for the analog map?

That makes sense.

Yeah, I always assumed this as well.
Neverending Project:
The way I understand, the U360 is always an analog joystick. The difference in firmware mapping is that for any given position it will either output its exact position (analog map) or a quantized position (digital map). But the computer (and hence mame) will always see it as an analog joystick.
