Please, step by step.

You are complaining about MAME not MameUIFX32, please let's not complicate - get plain mainstream build. Get MAME 131 where I confirmed both spinners work from mouse point of view, and tell me does that work for you or not, we have to have some common reference.

SavannahLion:
To be fair.....

Why ask us to downgrade when you should make the effort to lock step with us? To put it simply, go upgrade your ROM and MAME versions.

Paul Olson:
The common reference should always be the latest version of MAME. It makes no sense to test against code that is not current. You should be able to update the roms with clrMAMEpro.

What code did you change in this driver? You said you already made the needed changes.

Didn't analog+ mame run 720 perfectly?

I have a controller, never hooked it up because I was missing the optics and a few parts could have been updated... And it doesn't fit in my home cabinet.  I then got a refurb kit and never installed it. 

I really should get it out...  I love 720.   Great game!  I used to be able to get all gold medals... but with current controls...  I'm lucky to get a bronze

Current MAME uses the Analog+ code so the game can be played with an analog joystick. Please test the current MAME with your controller if you get the chance. the original MAME code that worked with the controller was replaced with the analog code. It has been suggested that it still works with the controller, but you are the first person I have heard from that has the controller to test with.

If you get your controller hooked up, please let me know if you would be willing to test a build for me. I went back to the original code and modified it to work with the state system (hopefully correctly). I can send you the atarisys2.c file, or a can compile a binary for you, whichever you would prefer. I have it compiled for MAME64 now, but I should be able to do a 32 bit build if you need it.

I am thinking about getting a controller. How deep is it underneath the panel? I am not sure if it will fit in my cp either.

thanks
