Xin-Mo Dual Controller and MAME

Sat Aug 03, 2013 12:43 pm

Hi,

I bought the Xin-Mo Dual Controller

http://www.xin-mo.com/?page_id=34

which is recognized during booting of the PI. But inside advMame or MAME4All I am not able to configure the joysticks or buttons.

Are there any prerequisites I need to setup or to configure to make them work inside MAME?

Thanks!

Its seeing the device but the drivers are probably missing/not on your system. In AdvanceMAME some drivers are included for Linux. In the settings file (advancemame.rc, its in the hidden folder /home/pi/.advance) try altering -

device_joystick auto to: device_joystick raw

This may help depending on the requirements of said device

The output of running "jstest" with the joystick is quite important for debugging.
