Title: Mamehooker and cannonball
Post by: baritonomarchetto on March 25, 2021, 01:33:35 pm

Now that cannonball is back with rumble support, I am trying to have it working at it's best on my cab. I know that outputs are supported by cannonball, but I am not sure how to interface it to my hardware: does mamehooker support cannonball?

afaik outputs aren't supported.   It's been a long time though so I could be wrong.

I am sure they are Howard. Not only they are present in the code ( this doesn't mean they are actually working, I know) but Chris wrote me that they are used in a cabinet with a pi prototype hardware

Well then the code is probably controlling a pi's gpio pins directly.

AFAIK, there's not a direct control, but a wrapper that reads outputs from the game (from a "consolle", as Chris wrote answering to a question of mine on github) and pass them to the pi... and you are the king of wrappers Howard!
