Agreed - What you should do is post it on MAME.net.
What I think you have done is enabled analog joystick input on lightgun games. Whether this will probably be added to MAME depends on what the change does when you try to play the games with a lightgun.
It would be nice if either input method could be used (maybe with a command-line flag, or input mapping), but I don't know what that would involve.

The problem is that the cursor is in the upper right corner when the stick is centered.. so its as though its only reading one side of each axis. I think all I did was change the value that tells Mame where to center the cursor ??? That's my guess anyways...

In that case it probably could make it into a MAME build.
If you don't get anywhere with it on www.mame.net, you could also post it (or link to a previous post) on www.mametesters.net (http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=mametesters)
Be sure to test with the latest 0.96 MAME version first though as I think they changed that driver recently.
Lilwolf:
btw, for some games that is as designed.
Starwars originally had if off center until you moved the yoke a few times... Then it centers automatically.
the others... you are suppost to calibrate the controls ingame.
So I believe that your change might make it work better without any changes... But it will be farther away from the original.

I dont think there are that many people using the T2 style guns on their cabs because they take up so much space.. If there were that many people using them then I suppose this topic would came up months ago.. either that or my initial post was too lengthy and A.D.D is preventing people from reading it to the end.. I know I have that problem ;D
