Jetboot Jack Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Does anyone know a way, from the command line, that I can disable the built in joystick setup in this emulator? By default the emulator seems to work with any connected USB (or in my case bluetooth Xbox One Pad) - but the button layout is horrific, it assigns all buttons to fire!!! So I would like to use Xpadder to control the emulator and script my own buttons to hotkeys to control it better. But because the joypad is always being used I cannot do that. In the Windows version I can find no command line switch to turn off the pad - there is a "-nojoystick" in theSDL version :-( Anyone got any ideas? sTeVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kr0tki Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 FYI, the only Windows binaries we provide at Atari800's download section are of the SDL version, so -nojoystick should work fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetboot Jack Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 hmmmmm - that's odd, -nojoystick in the command line hangs Atari800 when I try using it in my Launchbox install as a command line parameter... I am not using 4.0.0 - should I? sTeVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetboot Jack Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) So I have installed the x86 64 bit SDL version and it works. Does 3.0.0 have an issue with that CL parameter, I download from the official link every time... Needless to say thank you for your reply as I am now a happy emulatorist again! sTeVE Edited August 27, 2018 by Jetboot Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kr0tki Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Yeah, there had been a bug with -nojoystick, but it was fixed about two years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetboot Jack Posted August 29, 2018 Author Share Posted August 29, 2018 Two years ago - wow... Well I guess since the last stable release before 4.0.0 was in 2014 and I've not been using test builds that explains it! sTeVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
