I have a SlikStik, so that explains why none of the buttons on it are actually mapped to <Enter>. Anyway, the X-Keys stick was delivered today!!! I'm hoping to try it out tonight, but we'll se if I hve time. I plan on reporting back to everyone, as I think this could be a good alternative to wiring up extra buttons to remaining inputs on an Ipac. We'll see. . .

Pasqualz,
Any update on how you like your X-Keys Stick?

It'd make a good Space War controller. 8)

Well I have had exactly 30 minutes to mess with the x-keys stick since Friday, but I installed it and programmed 5 of the keys for the following functions:
ESC (quit)
TAB (menu)
ENTER (enter)
F3 (test mode, i think)
F11 (show FPS I think)
I'm having two issues right now:
1 - Sometimes the game doesn't respond to the first keypress (I have to press maybe 2 or 3 times.) I have pretty much the same issue in the games when i use the 1player/2player key combo to exit games, so i think thia may be a MAME32 issue??? It's not a big deal, and I'm pretty sure this can be resolved by messing with the key repeat property on the X-keys macro application.
2 - My USB spinner stopped working. I think this may have to do with the fact that the x-keys software installs 3 different virtual USB devices (keyboard, mouse, game controller.) I already have a USB trackball, and a USB keyboard and mouse connected to this computer, so I think it's way confused. The spinner also has a PS2 connector, so i have to try connecting it with that. Bottom line, i may also just have to disconnect all USB devices, then recommect them one by one for troubleshooting.
If anyone wants more info, let me know. If you can assist with either of my issues that would be great too! Thanks!
