Recompiling XMAME for Joystick Support
Hi,
I've been playing various games on xmame for a while now and finally broke down and got a joystick. Since I previously used only the keyboard, I originally compiled xmame without joystick support.
Following the directions in the xmame Makefile, I've uncommented the joystick parm in the Makefile (JOY_STANDARD = 1), and run the make.
However, it doesn't look like I'm able to enable the joystick support because when I run xmame, I still get the error message that joytype 1 (standard) is not available. I don't think I've done everything I need to do, but I can't find anything else explicitly listing the steps to enable joystick support in xmame.
Does anyone have experience with this same error or have an idea what I'm doing wrong or missing?
I actually don't have any other apps to use the joystick with, so to make sure it's working and recognized, I've cat-ed it's output to the terminal and it seems to be fine as far as that test goes.
Thanks for any help.
