Re: Rotating Horizontal Cores?

That’s what I thought. Maybe time to chase down a viewlix or something! Lol!

Re: Rotating Horizontal Cores?

Question, are you doing this via HDMI or with a MisterCade or something similar? Doesn't seem to be working through my MisterCade.

Re: Connecting the MiSTer to a Candy Cab

Not sure it’ll be a lot of help, but mine synced in my blast with the default config on the mister using the analog io board.

I do have a 2931 in mine, which auto switches. If you have a 2930 you’ll need to set the dip switches for the monitor properly.

Re: Add Spinner Control to Tron.. Please.. :-)

I just tested mine, since I've been tinkering with a spinner too. Tron seems to support it just fine. I'm using the Atari branded USB button spinner that Microcenter sells. Must be something specific to your spinner or config.

Re: Atari USB Button Spinner - Not Working

Just following up on this for future searches. I spoke with Sorgelig earlier today. He noticed that it was using the Y axis instead of the X axis, so it would not be recognized. He added a new option to switch the axis. That got it working perfectly! New setting is: spinner_axis=1 It also took setting the spinner throttle setting to reverse the dir...

Re: Atari USB Button Spinner - Not Working

A little more debugging effort today. I hooked up to the serial uart on the DE-10 and captured this as I plugged in the spinner and rotated it: The file mouse0 was created. Close all devices. Open up to 30 input devices. make_unique(289B,0057,-1) make_unique(0E8F,3013,1) make_unique(16C0,05E1,1) make_unique(045E,02A1,1) opened 0( 0): /dev/input/mou...

Re: Atari USB Button Spinner - Not Working

No sure if it can help but you should have an InputTest core in Utility. Thanks for the reminder. I had tried that before, but had no luck. I just retested and found the same behavior as Arkanoid. The buttons register, but the spinner doesn’t. I’ve also validated that it shouldn’t be a power issue. My supply is capable of 12a, so should be more th...

Re: Atari USB Button Spinner - Not Working

Spent some more time on this, but nothing concrete figured out. I cleared out all of the configs related to Arkanoid, but no difference. I wired up a way to test the built in buttons on the spinner and using the test mode in Arkanoid, I found that the buttons are working fine. So it's something specific to the spinner/mouse part of this. I've tried...

Re: Atari USB Button Spinner - Not Working

Yes, using a basic mouse with 2 buttons works perfectly.

Atari USB Button Spinner - Not Working

I'm breaking this away from another thread I've posted in the Arcade Cores section as I think it's an input issue and not a core issue. If the mods want to close down my other thread, that's fine. I picked up one of the Atari branded USB button spinners to use with the arcade cores that support spinners: https://www.microcenter.com/product/624264/a...

Re: Taito Spinner Support - Arkanoid

Tested with a new Arduino. No change at all, still using the PaddleTwoControllersUSB firmware. Completely unresponsive in Arkanoid and input test. Tested the Atari USB spinner under windows. Works great, shows up as a HID mouse. VID:PID = 32BE:1420. Added the Atari spinner vid and pid to the mister.ini to treat the mouse as a spinner as well as FFF...

Re: Taito Spinner Support - Arkanoid

Spent some more time on this, but still no luck. I am in the process of swapping out the Arduino as it was acting a little flaky when I was testing the pins, so I want to eliminate that. But in the meantime, I picked up one of these USB spinners with the hopes that it would work but out of the box, it didn't. https://www.microcenter.com/product/624...

Taito Spinner Support - Arkanoid

I've been tinkering with an original Taito spinner I have left over from when I owned an Arkanoid, trying to make it work with the Mister. Running the Mr. Spinner firmware on an Arduino Pro Micro, I don't seem to get any activity from the spinner in Arkanoid, Tron, or the InputTest. In Arkanoid, I have set it to spinner mode, but no change. I've ve...
