Title: Help with custom mame build.
Post by: JesterDEV on June 13, 2003, 07:58:01 pm
For the first time I compiled my own version of mame, and all I did was comment out a few lines so when I start I game.. Well it just starts and I dont have to type in OK. I did this cause my Ipac has been giving me trouble..

Anyway, now when ever I run a game the controls shift to the left. I cant move right no matter how hard I try.

Anyone have some ideas as to what I did wrong? I made sure I only commented out those few lines, and none of them led anywhere dealing with anything but those first few screens..

Well I seem to have fixed it. I did comment out something that I wasnt supposed to: init_user_interface();

Just have to try it out on my cab now. Works fine on this machine.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you can disable all that stuff with -skipdisclaimer or something in the ini, right?

Like some one else said , you can dis-able the nag screens in the last couple releases of mame.


as far as the controls being stuck left I had the same exact problem after compiling a while back. It has to do with mame  thinking theres a joystick installed and there's not. either plug in a joystick and calibrate it, or tell mame you don't have a stick. I was using a psx pad and direct pad pro driver but I had the pad unplugged.
