mthompson239 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) Coming over from HS...and having a slight issue. I can run Mame via *.exe and my controllers and buttons work. however, if called via Launchbox or even BigBig <paid supporter>, controllers nor buttons do anything, The drop down for controllers is empty...am I simply missing a config step? Setup: LaunchBox Version 8.2 Mame32 Version .119 No RetroArch JoyToKey (2) Ultimarc ServoStick and 32 buttons w/trackball controlled by iPAC4 Windows 7 64 Edited April 19, 2018 by mthompson239 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 It looks like for whatever reason LB isn't seeing your controller what type of controller is it. EDIT: My bad its there in the title. Since I don't have one of those I have no clue hopefully someone can help you out though I'm pretty sure we do have users that successful use them.

Yeah, everything else seems to be proper. Hrmmm, maybe not directly related due to questioning auto switching from 4 to 8 way setup within LB.

Hopefully the Additional Apps or AHK script can be used to do it for now. Edit: I suppose I could hookup a PS3 controller and see if it see that to further troubleshoot? Possible useful thread(s) to be tested later tonight; will edit if not related/not_resolved: Edited April 19, 2018 by mthompson239 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If no one ends up assisting to get this to work nor do any of the above items I posted gets me to my end result, since a paid member...would a support ticket be suitable?

Jason Carr Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 @mthompson239 Feel free to create a ticket in BitBucket, yes. Does the controller work in MAME if you disable gamepad/joystick input in LaunchBox? I don't believe I've heard about this particular issue before with this particular device, but I do know that there are a number of glitchy drivers out there for controllers that can cause issues. If you can, check to make sure there isn't a driver update available for the stick. Also, I know that a lot of arcade controllers simulate keyboard presses instead of acting as actual gamepads/joysticks, so that could be part of it somehow.

Yes I will be able to confirm the keyboard setting here in about an hour or so...tick toc tick toc. Will keep this post updated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its odd...I have my old mame setup HD within the same new computer...I can call that Mame up and play just fine. But the mame I now have for this build <different HD> doesnt respond to stik/buttons...other than escape button; left this out about. So they "are working" in sorts...apparently missing some mapping config here. Went into LB and tried to set a button to one...no feedback on screen...odd. I currently use an IPAC2 which I'll have a IPAC Ultimate here in a few days...went this route to LED buttons I purchasd as well as plans for other LED lights. Hope to hae this issues resolve by arrival so I can hit the ground running. Been doing the EMU/ROM thing...but nearing the end of that task...#NeedToPlay. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
