How to make Sears Paddles ATARI compatible ?

[Lord-Chaos]

The following problem :

 

Sears Arcade II Paddles work with ATARI games like Super Breakout , you can move the bat , but not start the game.

 

Looks like the Fire button is different to the CX-30 Paddles.

 

Sears Paddles are only 1-Paddle/port , CX-30 or Telegames Paddles are 2-Paddles/port.

 

They do work , this can be checked on an ATARI 800 with the Paddle and PTRIG commands in BASIC and own games on the ATARI 8 Bit in BASIC would support the paddles.

 

But how can I make the Paddles compatible to Super Breakout,Breakout,Circus ATARI,Warlords etc.

 

Seems to be only a fire-button problem , what do I have to change ?

When playing a paddle games Sears Video Arcade II Paddles move the joystick to the right for the fire button. If you made the fire button compatabe with the paddles then it wouldn't work with the joystick games.
