+stephena Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I just got the Genesis to USB from Retrozone..you can't map the fire button on Stella Unless the adaptor is doing something weird and/or requires specific drivers for Windows (which I assume is what you're using), then I find it hard to believe that it won't work in Stella. Rule of thumb is, if the device works without any extra drivers (ie, it's plug and play), and you can see the buttons working in the Windows control center joystick application, then it should work in Stella. Now, Stella may not see it right away, and you may have to go into its event remapping to assign the button to 'fire', but it can be made to work. I'd be very surprised if it won't work for you.

NinjaWarrior Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 I think that's how it's programmed..bunnyboy has one that works with the VCS Joystick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Try plugging in the adaptor, letting it run, then starting stella. I've seen many emulators not register a joystic if you plug it in while the game is running, even known working sticks. As for cost, I don';t know, I bought an X in one adaptor a year or two ago and it cost $15. But then, that was walmart, and they were all modern console controllers.

Yes, this is absolutely the case for Stella as well. It only registers/detects joysticks when the the application is first started. Anything plugged in after that isn't detected at all (until you run the application again). Most games and emulators work this way, actually.

Video Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Figured, I never actually messed with stella, but I run into this on Nintendo Sega, and Gameboy emulators, and just assumed it was common. Hey, Ninjawarrior, ever get yours to work? Oh yeah, as for 26$, cause it's 2600 pennies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
