Mouse Not Working in Mame v.55 or v.36
Minwah:
Try copying mamepp.ini to mame.ini.
Kremmit:
Ok, I just installed mame32 0.55. The only things I did was point the roms path at my existing roms directory and the samples path at my existing samples directory. Then I clicked to enable mouse input in the default games setup.
I fired up Super Sprint and the mouse controlled the blue car only, right-left movement for steering, and up-down movement controlled the throttle. The control mappings in the tab menu don't indicate that the mouse is mapped, but it is.
Mark, have you actually tired to play the game, without worrying about the tab menu? I wonder if maybe it was working all along for me, and I just got hung up trying to do the assignment in the tab menu, but never actually tried to play- I can't remember for sure anymore.

Okay, I did this first.

And then I tried this. Sure enough in Super Sprint the blue car is controlled by the mouse X-axis even though it does not show it being mapped when I TAB into the settings menu.
Thanks for helping me fix this first problem guys.
My next question would be, how do you change the mapping from the X axis?
Kremmit:
I have gotten nowhere with that. There's gotta be a place somewhere that defines how the mouse gets mapped to the analog controls, but where?

Pretty sure, but I don't think you can do this with older versions unless you recompile.
You can do it with newer versions though, just verified with .99. Remember when mapping the mouse, sometimes you have to give it a good wiggle or two and wait a sec.
Edit: Correction I thought you couldn't, but just tried .83 and I could so maybe I'm wrong.
