Player 2 joystick and buttons doesn't work

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
In configuration Player 2 joystick and buttons are not recognized.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm using a XIN-mo dual arcade USB Interface on raspbian (2013-05-25). 

Please provide any additional information below.

I connect 2 joysticks and Player 1 works perfectly, but player 2 doesn't work 
(joystick is not configurable in settings). 

With jstest (js0) I see that:

- Axes 0 and 1, and buttons 0-9 are for Player 1.
- Axes 2 and 3, and buttons 10-20 are for Player 2.

The "Hori Fighting Stick Mini 3 PS3" uses axis 4 and 5 and has the same problem.

Tried to remap axis with "jscal" tool but it did not have any effect.

Can you try the file http://mame4all-pi.googlecode.com/git/mametest.zip

It should allow the stick axis to be configured in MAME itself (tab config).

Can't say that it had any effect on my system. Here is what I did.
Made a new mametest directory, unzipped the contents of mametest.zip into it.
Copied some roms to the roms directory and started it with "./mame".

Started a random game. waited until it finnished rom-checks and stuff and 
pressed tab and chose input config for mame. Went down to "UI UP", pressed 
enter and pushed my joystick up, no reaction. Tried the stick in all directions 
but no response.
I did get a reaction from buttons 0-9 but that was also working before.

Is there a possibility to enable some debug-logging to console or file ?

Can you try the attached file to see if SDL is detecting your joystick 
properly? Send the output.

Also try changing the player up/down etc controls instead of the UI controls.

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ ./sdljoystick 
1 joysticks found
4 numaxes
0 numballs
1 numhats
13 numbuttons

I'm not at home so I cant move the joystick. But I'm pretty sure my joystick is 
the one "numhats". My 4 & 5 axix in jstest is called "Hat0X, Hat0Y" after all.

Sorry, I couldn't try before. 

My joysticks now are working perfectly, they're called JoyAxis 0+-. JoyAxis 
1+-, JoyAxis 2+- and JoyAxis 3+- :D I can configure all axis in the tab menu 
(as a player, ui controll, and other options)

The problem now are the buttons (I think you only changed axis code), it only 
detects P1 buttons, not the P2 (I think the limit is 10 for joystick).

The result of sdljoystick is:
1 joystick found
4 numaxes
0 numballs
0 numhats
22 numbuttons

Thank you!

Hi,

Mame test does not detect the stick but sdl joystick it does. The output is

1 joysticks found
2 numaxes
0 numballs
1 numhat
12 numbuttons

In sdljoystick you'd need to move the joystick to see what axis it detects.

I've added 6 more buttons to the detection. Try downloading the 
http://mame4all-pi.googlecode.com/git/mametest.zip file again. Didn't want to 
go too high as adding 6 means 24 (6x 4 joysticks) more button scans are being 
performed and anymore may affect performance.

I need to add configuration to mame.cfg so that the frontend and the analogue 
joystick in MAME will read the correct axis.

I tested it and buttons > 9 still doesn't work. I tried to assign button 10 and 
nothing happened. 

Is there a way to assign buttons > 9 to a second joystick? I don't need 22 
buttons for one player but my usb interface has 22 buttons in only one 
joystick, so I can't configure all buttons and player 2 is unplayable.

Or, is there a way to configure that "joystick 1" can manage 22 buttons but the 
other joysticks only 10 as for now?

Total buttons with 16 buttons x joystick = 16 * 4 = 64 posibilities.
Total buttons with P1 with 22 and others with 10 = 22 + 30 = 52 posibilities.

With this solution the scans are reduced and the usb interfaces that has 2 
players in one are fully functional.

The joystick (Hat) axis on my Hori stick are not detected by "sdljoystick".
So I guess you are not listening for SDL_JoyHatEvent.
Buttons 0-12 seems Ok though.

OK, download the mametest.zip again. Hopefully extra buttons should now work, 
I'm working blind here as my joystick doesn't have so many.

Buttons are per joystick, i.e. 16 per joystick, they can't have a different 
number of buttons.

The buttons still don't work. Button 10+ are not configurable on the tab menu. 
Can I give you more information? Any file or log?

Please download mametest.zip again for the 16 buttons.

I've made a small hack for joystick hat controls which I and luisfern have on 
our arcade sticks.

You can find the patch here: http://paste.debian.net/17164/

It maps the hat input to keyboard input. It only supports 1 hat per joystick 
(so far) but four joysticks. The first joystick is mapped to arrow keys, the 
second to num-pad (8,2,4,6) , the third to "WSAD" and the fourth to "TGFH".

Not the cleanest solution but it works very well for me.

with sdljoystick, I get no reading from joystick up and left
how can I fix this?

#26 I believe "patch -up0 < patch.txt" will do the trick from the checkout 
directory. You can test with "--dry-run" option.

Changes were applied in the latest version. Hat support wasn't added though due 
to the complications with SDL input support for it.

Has the issue with Mayflash USB Fighting Stick been resolved in the latest 
releases or does the patch still need to be applied? Buttons work but no stick 
response in retropie mame even though jstest shows stick working fine on axis 2 
and 3. Thanks

"can't find file to patch at input line 5".
can anyone help?
Thanks!

The patch is over a year old so files might have been renamed or moved, it 
might also be that your are not standing in the correct directory when running 
the patch command.

Hi, I've tried to use my usb Joystick on my Retropie, in ones, atari and 
anothers emulators it's OK. But in Mame, when I tried to configure input in 
MameUI, my hat buttons is not detected, My Joybuttons are OK. I'm using a 
Microntek usb Joystick adapted to a arcade controller.

Hello everyone,

I am using Hori stick wireless with Mame4all on my rpi.
When trying to change inputs in the Tab Menu, every buttons are correctly 
detected except the joy (Up, Down, Left, Right). 
Jstest is showing that it is 4 & 5 that are changing when moving the stick.

I understood that I need to apply the patch, but do I need to launch Make 
afterwards in order to recompile ? Even if I did a binary install of retropie, 
can I do that ?

Thanks Squid and very good job !

I need hat support as well! This is a decent inexpensive usb arcade stick, and 
without hat support it's useless in mame :(

I know this has moved to sourceforge, but since this is the post that came up 
when i was googling this same issue I figured I'd post here. I was able to fix 
it using the patch from issue 42:

https://code.google.com/p/mame4all-pi/issues/detail?id=42

I've tried to explain how I used the patch on that post.

I use the "Hori Fighting Stick Mini 3 PS3" and so was suffering from the lack 
of hat issue.
