Pole Position 1&2 Need Help..Problems
« on: April 21, 2010, 11:09:07 am »
hello everyone
This is my first thread here, I write here, since I see that this forum is very professional, and many problems being solved here so I hope It will work for me too.

I have really big troubles with POLE POSITION 1, 2

I recently bought steering wheel for my PC, and most of the driving games are working just great
OUTRUN, RAD MOBILE, CHASE HQ, CISCO HEAT and many more just made my childhood dream cometrue, and I can play this game like in the arcade  :applaud:

Keep in mind that I am not new to MAME, I play in this emulators for a few years now, I am familiar with MAMEWAH, and other frontends

How ever two great games make me a lot of trouble: Pole Position 1 & 2
Now I will write all my problems with this games, this thread will be a little long, and I really hope you will help me with this games.

FIRST PROBLEM: Controlles
1. POLE POSITION 1, 2
the problem with this game is that I just cant make Mame work good with my steering wheel, for some reason it seems to be that when I move the wheel even a little bit, the car just move TOO FAST to right or left, I tried to enter the MAME menu using TAB and change the values of the DIAL ANALOG CONTROLES, it just way too sensitive

I cant play more then 30 seconds without explode, it makes this game unplayable with analog controles, how can I fix it.

Can anyone please post here his analog values for this games?

Second Problem: English Version
POLE POSITION 2

Pole Postion 2 have 3 version:
   A. Pole Position 2
   B. Pole Position 2 (Atari)
   C. Pole Postion 2 (bootleg)

the first version is in japanease, I want to play the Europe\World\Us versions (so i will see ENGLISH on the screen), the problem is the the Version B, C just don't work, the game seems to load, and it gets into infinite loops of resetting the games.
I downloaded all the versions again but it still didn't work
I tried many versions of MAME and Only really old Version of MAME32 loaded this versions (B,C)
I really prefer to work with only one MAMEUI32 version, have anyone managed to make versions B,C work?

Third Problem: Sound
I told before that I managed to play both Pole Positions versions Under old version of MAME32, But when I played Pole Position 1, 2 in the new MAMEUI32, it seems that when the car make a sharp turn, there is really bad sound which sounds WAY TO BAD COMPARING TO THE OLD MAME32 VERSION

This is it, that's my three big problems with this games, I can play this game with no problems with GAMEPADS, But I want to Play this games like in the arcade with the analog feel

Hope you guys will help me...
waiting for reply...
