MultiJoy Support?

Unread post by shark800 »

Hi all,

does Amiga core support multijoy? I wanted to play Dynablaster where there is multijoy support in this game (other 2 joystick were attached to printer port via simple wire-only reduction) but I failed to made it work in Minimig.

Does Minimig support it? Have I failed to find it in menu somewhere?

Thank you,
Petr

Yes, Minimig core does have multijoy support. Evidence is on line 621 of Minimig-AGA_MiSTer/rtl/minimig.v file

Code: Select all

	.portb_in({_joy4[0],_joy4[1],_joy4[2],_joy4[3],_joy3[0],_joy3[1],_joy3[2],_joy3[3]}),

I probably had failed joystick when I tried it for the first time. This is super fun playing Dynablaster with more people :lol:

Just add enough joysticks to MiSTer via USB and/or DB9 and you are ready to go - no special configuration needed.
Using it with DB9 adaptors from mayflash or ultimatemister without any problems.
