Title: Choose game using spinner?
Post by: chubsta on February 28, 2013, 02:02:24 PM

Hi, I have recently installed MGalaxy in a Sega Astro City on which I am running mame. I love the look of it but i have a problem that i hope you may be able to advise on - the cab is only used for a very limited number of games, basically arkanoid/arkanoid 2. Because of this i only have a spinner, which is connected via an optiPac interface.

I am unable to scroll between the 2 games in the menu. I have tried changing the settings for 'up' and 'down' in MGalaxy Runway but am unable to do so - i can change those settings to any keys but if i try to change it to a spinner the mouse cursor just moves sideways and the option doesnt change in Runway?

Any advice? I like to keep my cabs as streamlined as possible so dont want extra buttons or a keyboard etc.

Thanks, great piece of software!

Cheers
Karl

Unfortunately, I'm afraid it won't be possible! mGalaxy only reacts to key press!
Don't you have other push-buttons on your panel that you could map to browsing?

Thanks for the quick reply - i didnt have buttons but it wont be too difficult to add them out of the way so that is a good idea...
