MAME and controllers

Hi,
I am trying to use MAME 0.213 and a SlikStik CO2 unit. I have a slikstik_co2.cfg file in the ctrlr folder that's been in there for ages. I used to use the SlikStik CO2 many moons ago but stopped. I tried monkeying around with it today but can't seem to get the unit to work with MAME.
Here's the command I am using: mame gamename -ctrlr slikstik_co2
The game loads with no errors, but the controller will not load. Also, when I exit the game, I get a ton of these errors:
Input: Dropping invalid input token KEYCODE_NONE
I also have a slikstik_co2.cfg file in the ctrlr folder but I suspect this file is out of date and needs to be edited or replaced
I'm assuming that MAME's controller handling changed at some point and I just need to understand what changed and if I can get this unit to work with the current version of MAME.
Can someone please help me get this controller working with MAME again?
Thank you very much,
Jason

Have you got under # CORE INPUT OPTIONS in your mame.ini, in the "ctrlr" setting, have you put "slikstik"?.

Yes, I've tried both slikstik and slikstik_co2 but still nothing.

If this configuration it's not working anymore, all you have to do it's to create a new one. Run mame > configure options > general inputs > player 1 controls / player 2 controls.
After you finish mapping your joystick, copy the file default.cfg to your ctrlr folder and run some tests loading the file with mame game -ctrlr default.
After you done messing with it, name it whatever you want. To make it load with every arcade game you have, add ctrlr default(or whatever name you choose) inside ini/arcade.ini file.
