Iām trying to get my mouse / trackball setup in MAME and/or MAME2016.
In MAME2003, with no additional configuration, the mouse/trackball just works. Here is the MAME2003 config controls menu for duck hunt. Here is the MAME or MAME2016 config controls menu for the same game. No matter what I do from the GUI, Iām not able to get MAME/MAME2016 to recognize thereās a mouse connected.
My mame.ini shows mouse enabled and lightgun should be controlled from the mouse:
CORE INPUT OPTIONS
coin_lockout 1
ctrlr
mouse 1
joystick 1
lightgun 1
multikeyboard 0
multimouse 0
steadykey 0
ui_active 0
offscreen_reload 0
joystick_map auto
joystick_deadzone 0.3
joystick_saturation 0.85
natural 0
joystick_contradictory 0
coin_impulse 0
CORE INPUT AUTOMATIC ENABLE OPTIONS
paddle_device keyboard
adstick_device keyboard
pedal_device keyboard
dial_device keyboard
trackball_device mouse
lightgun_device mouse
positional_device keyboard
mouse_device mouse
Iām assuming this is somehow hardcoded into MAME2003? What am I missing to get mouse / trackball / lightgun enabled in MAME/MAME2016.
