Help with Johnny5 and a SlikStik Classic controller
Howard_Casto:
Well you haven't posted anything for em to be able to tell.
Post your mame.ini tell me what version of mame you are using... ect
Q*bert:
More details on my setup:
I'm running mame 1.05 and Johnny5 2.6 beta.
Mame.exe is in "C:\EmuMame\Mame\" and J5 is in "C:\Johnny5\".
I am using the latest available for d/l classic "slikstik.cfg" (v1.2 for mame v 0.86+ - dated 8/28/04) and it is stored in the "C:\EmuMame\Mame\ctrlr\" directory.
Johnny5->Options->Viewer->ctrlr is set to "slikstik"
Johnny5->Options->Viewer->Path to Mame is set to "C:\EmuMame\Mame\"
My mame.ini is as follows:

Howard_Casto:
two things stand out, but I don't know if this is the cause:
Your ini path is commented out, set it to "ini" and make sure you have an ini folder (even if it's blank).
Go ahead and close up your paths (c:\emumame\data\roms\ , not c:\emumame\data\roms ).
I surely hope you mean mame 0.105 and not 1.05 because there's no way j5 is gonna support a version that old. ;)

I tried setting the inipath and closing the paths and still get an error 52 message as above.
and yes, I did mean 0.105...
Very frustrating, but I still can modify the std.ini and get it to work beautifully otherwise.
Thanks for your help Howard. :notworthy:
Q*bert:
OK, now this is weird... :banghead:
I used mame's -cc option to recreate the mame.ini file and Johnny5 now finds the slikstik.cfg file and works perfectly.
I visually compared the new ini file to the old one I posted earlier and I can't see any difference. Unfortunately I didn't save the old ini file or I'd do a filecompare and see of there was some odd data in there.
