View Full Version : Having problem getting Trackball/Spinner working via HyperSpin->MAME

Hey folks -

I recently wiped a cabinet down and am rebuilding. Have things mostly working, but for some reason I cannot get the trackball and spinner to work inside of MAME - they do work fine in Windows, and in HyperSpin itself.

I tried adding "-mouse" to the parameter entry, but it doesn't seem to stick - I don't see it in the preview, and when I go into something like Attax, the trackball doesn't work. It does work if I run MAME manually from a command line and add "-mouse". Any suggestions?

Bonus newb question: some of the buttons on my cabinet are set to mouse buttons. When I try to change the MAME default key controls, I can't figure out how to input "MOUSE 1" or whatever the nomenclature is. No love on the MAME FAQ either - appreciate any tips there, too!

Thanks again!

Check in HyperHQ if the execution is set to normal or HyperLaunch. Mine is set to normal and works fine.

create mame.ini with mame -cc and edit all options in there

check which mame.ini is you mame using cause it can be in mame root folder or mame\ini folder and it can be mame.ini or mameui32.ini etc depends what version of mame you have (gui or cmd line)

i had the same problem - mouse worked in mameui but not in hyperspin, editing right mame.ini solved the case
