Maximum Number of Joysticks, Spinners and Lightguns

Unread post by blacklistedcard »

What is the maximum number of joysticks, spinners and lightguns that the mister can accommodate?

I have four joysticks with one tackball. When I add a spinner it's ignored by mister, like it has the maximum number of joysticks attached. Since it's in an arcade cabinet. All the joysticks and trackball are connected to the mister at the same time.

The mister does see the USB device, it's just not working within the cores. I also noticed the test program for joysticks only has four joysticks.

I don't know about the maximum, but you may have to specify the PID and VID of the spinner in your MiSTer.ini file.

I will try it. I don't have that.
