Title: Placed my order, now a question...
Post by: Gromet on July 08, 2003, 02:25:07 pm
Ok, Placed my order for everything from Happs, American Gaming (D9200) and Unlimarc.  Now for a question.  My plan for my controll panel will incorporate 4 8-way Joysticks, 1 4-way Jaoystick, 1 original Tron Joystick, 1 Original Tron Spinner, and 2 2 1/4" Trackballs.  I went with the i-pac 4 player 56inpit interface, Optipac, and ArcageVGA cards from Ulti... I understand the Player 1 side of the Opti can handle 1 Trackball, and 1 spinner (whichever one is touched first takes controll), now how do I go about getting the trackball for Player two working for games like Marble madness, Etc... What OS/Mame Combo should I use?

Thanks

To get 2 trackballs working you need Win98 and MAME Analog+. U_Rebelscum really owns that whole department. That's his baby. You can google search for "mame" and "analog" and find it, though.

you need MAME Analog +, Win98 or WinME, and both sides of the Optipac need to be USB.

If you have the serial optipac, you need DOS MAME, and the optimous drivers from www.mame.net, and it's a lot harder to set up.
