Joystick Trouble in MameWah

[GoldenBear]

Wondering if there is a way to set the buttons for navigating Mamewah to gamepad buttons without assigning each button a keyboard letter/number.

Thanx in advance.

Feel I should add that I am using multiple Gravis USB Game Pad Pros and Mamewah doesn't seem to react to any of them.

I think that Mamewah is keyboard code oriented.  As long as you can generate the codes you can assign buttons and joysticks to any code.  I do not remember any joypad type support.  You would probably have to have your USB joystick generate keyboard codes to get Mamewah to recongnize it.  This is only my understanding from running Mamewah.

Minwah is a regular user of this board and I am sure he will answer your question.  Why not leave your question in the Mamewah .95 thread?

I assume you mean the .95b release thread.  I will paste a copy of it there as well.

any luck getting it working? im having the same trouble also.

if you got it working please explain how.

The only way is to use a program which remaps PC Joypad/stick button presses to keystrokes.

I haven't done this myself but the most popular program for this seems to be Joy2key, try a Google search for it.
