Title: why can't i create a custom restrictor profile in UltraMap ???
Post by: swaffar on September 12, 2008, 07:22:13 am

 :timebomb: :timebomb: :timebomb:

so i'm using an octagonal restrictor for my ultrastik 360, and my center is off.  it moves in a slight circular motion with stick rotation, but that's to be expected.  but it usually looks something akin to:

my problem is that i'm trying to create a custom restrictor setting in the ini file like this:

# This is the Ultimarc.ini file
UltraStikIniFileFormatVersion=1.0

AutoScanForUltraStiks=True
UltraStiksRequired=1,3
UltraStiksLastPluggedIn=3,4
UltraStik1Restrictor=4/8
UltraStik2Restrictor=Circular
UltraStik3Restrictor=Custom:6,Octagonal
UltraStik4Restrictor=Custom:9

but when i go to load it i'm still only left with 4/8, circular, and custom(9) as options.  what gives?  the stick is great but in mario 64 i can't hit full analog deflection in every direction...  this is becoming very frustrating.

also it would be nice if ultramap had a calibrating feature...  hit calibrate and spin the stick in place... maybe a 5 second count, and then it finishes, with your center calibrated to an average of the sensed center (with play)

anyway, does anyone know what's going on with my custom restrictor settings?
