Title: Issue with spinner
Post by: Abomination on November 02, 2005, 05:02:44 pm

I have a slikstik tornado spinner and it hooks up through my PS2 port on the PC.  Its seen as a mouse and I can actually use it on the windows xp desktop to move from left to right but its not working in mame.  I used TAB in game to pull up the settings but there is so many different options I am wondering what I need to do to enable or setup my spinner?

Anyone help?

Did you enable mouse in teh mame.ini file?

I think its just a -mouse flag in the command line if you want to enable it only certain times.

Also, the default for some games is using buttons instead of the mouse so you would also have to change the game configuration (TAB key).

for future reference it was in mamewah.  I had to adjust the ingame spinner controls, it had none.  Wierd part was I couldnt set it with the spinner I had to use the connected mouse to move left and right on the x and y settings.  But works fine now and I'm happly getting my butt handed to me in tempust
