mattblue Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Thank you for the quick reply, but that did not work either. I have teh .ini file in the same folder as the exe file and did everything else. Any other ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Which Golden Tee game are you trying to get working ? After some quick testing here on my end the first Golden Tee game doesn't use the trackball, it uses a joystick but Golden Tee Classic does use the trackball and the settings I posted do work and through LB.

mattblue Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Thank you. I am using GT 2K, it works with the trackball in Maximus Arcade just not through LB/ BB. I am using the X-Arcade Tank Stick. Should I delete MAME and reinstall it? Any other suggestions? Just so I am giving you all the info, I have Mame64 running with retroarch and Launchbox/ Big Box.

Lordmonkus Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I haven't used Maximus Arcade in a very long time and even then it was only briefly, does it have its own configuration files for emulators like how RocketLauncher does ? or does it use the emulators config files ? Every one of my trackball games work through LB using the standard command line version of Mame. My HTPC has a Tankstick hooked up to it with a full Mame rom set and all the trackball games work.

Lordmonkus Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Just tested this out on my main system and the mouse works perfectly when loading through Launchbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattblue Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Ok I am going to reinstall Mame and see if that works. And send an update in like 2 hours. And I did not do any config work with Maximus it just worked right as I plugged it in. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattblue Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Not sure what is going on with my reply, but even after installing MAME again It is not working. What can I show you to see if someone can help me. Do I need to reinstall Retroarch? Would that screw up all the info I have downloaded?

Lordmonkus Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Oh, you are using Retroarch ? I think RA handles all that in the core options but i'm not sure, I only use the stand alone Mame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattblue Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 So you go directly from Mame to LB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Yeah, I don't like the Mame core in RA for a few small but personal preference reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattblue Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 So maybe this is my issue. Is there a video on how to set this up directly without RA. I was told to use by a friend that set it up but I do not care as long as everything works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Does RA MAME even support trackball I've never even tested something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does but I cant remember exactly where it's all at, it could be in the core options in the quick menu or maybe in the Tab menu, i'm not sure. 5 minutes ago, mattblue said: Is there a video on how to set this up directly without RA No video that I know of but I do have a Mame guide here: Just set it up like I have laid out in that guide and enable the stuff I have said here in this thread.

mattblue Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I am working on it now. When setting up the Rom path, I have a lot of different folders like Sega, Mame, NES and so on. They are all under the E directory and that is all that is in this directory. Can I just point it to E or do I have to list each subfolder?

DOS76 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Just played some Centipede with my mouse help turning up the mouse speed for me using logiteck k400r but it definitely isn't as good as having that trackball would be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to do each path, you can add multiple paths by separating them with a semi colon ";" and you should probably surround the whole thing in quotes. So for example you will want something along the lines of this: rompath "E:\path1\to\roms;E:\path2\to\roms;E:\path3\to\roms" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattblue Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Thank you. Now how do i set up games from other platforms like sega or nes? Do i need other emulators? Thank you again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I would recommend other emulators for consoles, Retroarch and the their console emulator cores are best for those. You can do some consoles with Mame but that is a bit more advanced and takes some extra effort to do because of bios and command line requirements and Mame emulation for consoles for the most part is not best though that does vary from system to system.
