Problem getting X-Arcade Tankstick Trackball working in MAME- Please help
-
Guys,
I have a X-Arcade Tank stick with trackball. When plugged into my PC it acts as a mouse. When plugged into Recalbox. I cant seem to get it to work at all. Joysticks and buttons are fine. Can anyone help ? I would love to play Cabal , centipede , and arknoid with it. I have both USb cables plugged in also btw

@implode99 hi
Imn not sure those cores handle mices. Anyway, it's probably a good thing to check the retroarch inputs. I have a tankstick too, and never ever tried to make the mouse part work
-
@substring its wierd. I had centipede working for very short time with mame4all (read it was supporting mouse). But some reason it stopped and i cant get it working again . Tired every combo, looked in .cfg files etc
-
@implode99 a simple look at core inputs in the retroarch options is necessary
-
@substring though the .config file or the GUI interface ?
-
@implode99 the gui i guess. Retropie has a wiki on it, but this may be colplicated tonapply tonrecalbox for nulerous reasons. But you may get the general idea

Retropie
I am kind of surprised its not implemented as standard within the configuration for X-Arcade sticks, since they are so popular( I say this regretfully) .
-
@implode99 because no one ever asked so far for any help on this ? And anyway mouse support in retroarch is very new
-
@substring ah ok. Well I will do some more tinkering. I found this page. I will try some of the ideas:

@implode99 t's the one I meant. I should be able to do some testings this weekend if you need help
-
@substring thats great thanks. I will keep you posted. I also found this link might be helpful -
