Atari 2600 Driving Controller with MAME
#335345 - 12/21/14 07:50 PM


Has anyone got an Atari 2600 Driving Controller to work in MAME for games like Night Driver or Circus?

USB Adaptors are availble to connect these to the PC and I managed to get the Atari Paddle Controller pair to work but not the Driving Controllers.

It registers under Game Controllers. Spinning the knob makes the + cursor go up and down. Pressing the button registers as button #1.

maybe it is something to do with what you have set in mame.ini for the below.. you would need to change the related line to joystick ..

#
# CORE INPUT AUTOMATIC ENABLE OPTIONS
#
paddle_device keyboard
adstick_device keyboard
pedal_device keyboard
dial_device keyboard
trackball_device keyboard
lightgun_device keyboard
positional_device keyboard
mouse_device mouse

I was thinking this also but I tried several of these and couldn't get it to work.
