Title: Mamehooker 5.2 on the way.... request for help
Post by: Howard_Casto on September 12, 2017, 12:01:54 am

I've got a new version done but I hesitate to release it because I haven't tested the new force-feedback code (my wheel is inaccessible atm).  Is there anyone out there that uses the ff for outrunners or one of those few rumble-enabled games that would be willing to help?  If not I'll have to release the new exe as-is and perhaps keep the old one up as well.

I would help Howard, but the cab is inaccessible ATM (not at my place for fast and easy testing).

I'm a little under the weather.... not sure what happened. 

I think what I'll do is go ahead and release it this week as-is.  If you guys want to try it then it'd be great but it might be a while before I can fix any issues.  A mamehooker release is long overdue and I want to get something out the door.

Thanks for all of your efforts @Howard_Casto!
I will soon be ready to test a new version with my brand new G29. Any news on it?

BTW: I read, that the new version includes Ultimate-IO support. I have one in my cab too, which I could test.

Yeah I've just been sick as a dog with an ear infection and we just recently had a death in the extended family.  (I'm sad about it, but he was 93, so it isn't like it was unexpected.)  I'm pretty much ok now, but being sick towards the end of October threw off all my winter prepping so I have to do that and I've got a funeral tomorrow.  I had planned on making some example display files for a few of the new features, but it looks like that is out.  I'll try to slap together enough for a release soon.

Looking forward for a release, but health and family always come first, so take your time!

I’m sorry for your suffering. Please accept my deepest condolences.  :(
