Game Port Question

<< < (2/6) > >>

SavannahLion:
Oh you have a gameport? Ok I didn't see that. I still stand by statement above though.

IIRC the sidewinder mode isn't supposed to turn the controller on/off I believe it changes how the pad is utilized eg analog or pseudo digital though I do recall ramapping it to a sort of start button. Can't recall how I did that though. It's been years since I've used it.

Did you check ms support site for sidewinder drivers? I recall the sidewinder software and drivers have a lot of configuration options. Way more than default drivers.

boardjunkie:
Ok, I guess I don't remember correctly then. It was 10 years ago......

Jack Burton:
If you take one of those sidewinders apart you will be pleasantly surprised.  They have nice holes in the pcb that are labeled for all the connections.  It's perfect for hacking. 

D_Harris:
Well, I can't hack it until I'm sure it will work with MAME. It seems to work perfectly in Microsoft SideWinder game pad properties. (See about image).

But what do I have to do to use it with MAME?

And can an adaptor be used with one of these in a USB port?

Thanks.

Don't you have to calibrate Gamepad devices EVERY DAMN TIME?
