Title: MameWah & USB Contoller?
Post by: simplygriff on May 06, 2004, 08:54:28 am

I've been trying to nail down which FE I want to use for my cabinet.  I finally got Mame to work through MameWah (a feat for me) but my contoller won't work.  I'm using a MAS systems Playstation 2 stick with a PS2 to USB adapter.  Is this just something Commandline Mame doesn't support or is it MameWah or is it something I'm doing wrong?  Any advice would be great!  By the way the stick works great in Mame32.

DoH!!  I shoulda looked around a little bit first this morning.  I just found Minwah's thread about the possible update to MameWah and realized that it doesn't have Joystick support.  I apologize. :-[

Are there any FE's that will support a USB joystick?

I know at least some of the other cabinet FE's support PC sticks, but I'm not 100% sure which ones so I'll leave that to the other devs...

Just a sidenote to say that I will soon need to be able to use USB sticks also, so I hope to add this feature in when I get chance.  Until then, I will use JoyToKey: http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA016823/joytokey/english.html
