Project Temptest V 0.81 and Game Pad

[TeutonicDarkness]

Hello,


 After a entire day of frustration I managed to get
The Jaguar Emulator configure with Mamewah.
Unfortunately I had to revert to a early version
of Project Temptest V 0.81 to be exact.

The newer version had a GUI to set the joystick in which
made it error free


However all I have now is a ini file where I must
define them and I just cant figure out what to
type in this .ini file to get my
snes GamePads working..


Help please,

Okay well first off I'd like to know why you reverted to an older version of PT?

Now I haven't ran MameWah in some time...but it never struck me as requiring certain builds of Emu's to work correctly.

Oh if all else fails you could use Xpadder to bind your gamepad to keyboard keys the emu uses.

 I reverted to the older version for 2 Reason:
 1st being:
I was unable to get it to launch roms properly
When the Emulator came up It only gave me
the Emulator and I still had to go file Select Rom...

I want it to launch flawlessly through Mamewah
 The old one Does but I haven't figured out the
Gamepad Settings just yet.


2: I'm using a Older version of Mamewah that's available on
download page with setup program ...
I know that newer Mamewah has a few more features
but its just to inconvenient and time consuming setting
up. Not to mention for the life of me I cant begin
to figure out how to set up newer version Mamewah.

Whats X - Padder? Is it a software profiler for gamepads?


If so I have tried similar... but The profile software
would not launch because it must run in start up;
which is a no go because I have Mamewah running
on a completely shelled Windows XP


I really want to use my snes gamepads, I'm a firm believer
games should be played as they were designed to:

Games with a stick play better with a stick,
Games with paddles play better with paddles,
Games with a gamepad should be played with
a gamepad.


Any ideas or help is welcome...

Well here is a loader I wrote for GameEx...but with some mild fiddling with MameWah's Emu INI's it'll work with it as well...much like 75% of my stuff.

Code: [Select]

Command=Project_Tempest_Loader.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]" is the primary bit thats important...thats in GameEx format...but everything else is mainly fluff of sorts.

That should allow you to use the most recent build of PT.

Xpadder...tho hold off on that till you get PT launching correctly.

Issues are resolved I take it?

 I just came on here to post my findings actually....

nomatter what I tried with the Newer version
of Project Temptest it would not launch correctly.



I have just 5 minutes ago figure out to
get my gamepad set to work..

However I once again had to revert to version
0.82

(works great with snes gamepads )



So to post my findings and help others:


make a backup of pt.ini
erase everthing and paste this in
or just compare and fill in as needed:

ROMpath         c:/pt/roms
EepromPath      c:/pt/eeprom
BootromPath      c:/pt/roms/jagboot.rom
sound         1
sound_timers      1
sound_output      1
framelimit      1
fullscreen      1
width         640
height         480
boot_from_bootrom   0

sound_frequency      44100
soundbuffer_size   6000
sound_latency      10

joypad1_left      joy1_left
joypad1_right      joy1_right
joypad1_up      joy1_up
joypad1_down      joy1_down
joypad1_a      joy1_button1
joypad1_b      joy1_button2
joypad1_c      joy1_button6
joypad1_pause      joy1_button4
joypad1_option      joy1_button3
joypad1_0      key_numpad0
joypad1_1      key_numpad1
joypad1_2      key_numpad2
joypad1_3      key_numpad3
joypad1_4      key_numpad4
joypad1_5      key_numpad5
joypad1_6      key_numpad6
joypad1_7      key_numpad7
joypad1_8      key_numpad8
joypad1_9      key_numpad9
joypad1_star      key_numpadstar
joypad1_sharp      key_numpadslash

 Maybe that will save others the hours lost and
hours of fustration.. It gave me.
