Saikyo Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 When I used to use Z26 I downloaded the frontend X26 then simply load it up choose the path for the roms, click configuration and you can set options from there including use joystick etc... Unfortunatly I have not got the emulators any more so I dont remember everything. hope this has helped you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjk7382 Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 All I have to do is plug my usb joystick in and it recognizes is all by itself. I don't use the frontend. I just associate my bin files with z66, and click on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdie3 Posted May 22, 2004 Author Share Posted May 22, 2004 Well.. I do not have a USB joystick so I will have to get one (if it is just a plug and play type of thing). In the meantime, I do have a PC joystick so if anyone could explain to me what I need to do to get it to work with z26 -that would be most helpful. Thanks in advance!!

Eckhard Stolberg Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 z26 should automatically use the first two joysticks in the Windows controller settings dialog. Gameport joysticks don't get automatically detected by Windows though, so you'll have to install your's manually. To do so you need to open the Windows Control Center and find the joystick settings. There you chose "Add..." and select a controller from the list that matches your joystick. Then the joystick should appear in the list and you should be able to calibrate and test it. If it works properly in the test dialog, it should work nicely in z26 too. Ciao, Eckhard Stolberg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdie3 Posted May 22, 2004 Author Share Posted May 22, 2004 Thanks, eh. I just needed to calibrate my controller. My Gravis PC game pad works quite well. Finally I get to play Subterranea. Cool!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
