problem:2 optical rotary sticks (happs) plugged into optipac (have tried both on a different axis on one mouse and as 2 mice) but it either make player one spin only, regardless of the stick i turn, or it wont move 2nd player at all. Player one almost always works.
I am using analogmame with windows 2k with all upgrades.
any tips? I can get a mame.ini listed up here later, but my cab isnt plugged into my network at the moment. when i have the mice setup as one mouse, i can control the mouse outside of mame ala-etch a sketch, but player two gets no movement.
any ideas?

The newest version of regular MAME has better mouse code; have you tried using that instead of Analog+? I think you can configure your mouse axes right in the tab menu, without messing with .ini files.

I too suggest the current official mame. You'll have to remap player two.
One thing with win2k is you'll have to have the optical rotaries on different axes. No one has been able to get seperate mice on w2k, including my analog+ & current mame. :(
If you want analog+ for some reason, you'll also have to have the rotaries share a mouse with different axes. Then enable -switchableaxes, and remap in game in the non-mame change mouse.

does that mean no dual trackballs or lightguns? i was thinking of getting light guns in the future, but i guess ill pick up a copy of xp, in fact, im pretty sure i have like 2 licenses laying around...

The latest mame works with dual trackballs/lightguns with XP.
