Need some help with JoyToKey
« on: November 12, 2003, 05:41:50 pm »
I could use some help with JoyToKey.  I need to use it so that I can use MameWah(I did a gamepad hack).  Anyways, If I hold the joystick going one way and then stop pushing it that way, it acts like I'm still pushing it for a second or so.  It's really annoying.  Buttons don't always register either.  Should I just get another frontend and forget about using JoyToKey?  Is there a setting I'm missing?(in either mame or JoyToKey)

I had the same problem with a playstation joystick I was using with an PSX-USB adapter, but it happened without JoyToKey as well. I'm using JoyToKey now with a pair of USB gamepads without any trouble.

  • Resistance is... probably a good idea.

I did a little testing and was able to reproduce your problem. I think it you adjust your "threshold for input" under the "others" tab it may fix your problem. I have mine set to 50% if I set it to 0% (default I believe) I get the same problem.

Hope this helps!  ;D

About to go try it, it's currently set at 0%.  Thanks for the tip!

To everybody else, I was using Gravis Gamepad Pro's(gameport version) and they worked just fine before without JoyToKey.

I'll respond after I've tested it.

Just to satisfy my curiosity, did that fix it?

No, it seems like it may have helped a little, but it's still funky.  :(

I really don't know. The only other thing that comes to mind is adjusting your "automatic shooting" setting. Good luck...sorry I couldn't help more.
