Title: Star Wars Yoke & MAME - plug and play interface!
Post by: Daviea on February 19, 2009, 03:00:09 pm: Anyone out there running MAME and have a Star Wars yoke they'd like to hook up via a "plug and play" USB interface? Show of hands, please.

I've got such a device prepared (a prototype version) that I'd like to have someone to borrow for a few days to help me beta test its function and report back.

Anyone interested, please PM me right now.

Try U-HID (www.u-hid.com). It supports all kind of inputs and comes USB ready for PC/Mac.
