StanJr Posted August 31, 2001 Share Posted August 31, 2001 Is there any way to simulate paddle controllers with the keyboard or other way to play paddle games without actual paddles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanJr Posted August 31, 2001 Author Share Posted August 31, 2001 I've got the StellaX and the Super Breakout ROM, but I cannot seem to get the mouse to work as a paddle. I've tried changing the settings under Options, but no matter whether the mouse is set on paddle 1,2, or 3, I hit game reset and can't do anything. Am I doing something wrong or should I look into a better Emulator? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nostalgic Posted August 31, 2001 Share Posted August 31, 2001 In order for Stella to recognize a game as using paddles rather than a joystick, there must be an entry in the profile (stella.pro) for that game. Download the latest version of stella.pro (as a ZIP) file from Stella Profile and put it in your Stella directory. This profile file has entries for hundreds of games.

MattyXB Posted August 31, 2001 Share Posted August 31, 2001 I have try it now and it work by me. I have this settings: Mouse should emulate paddle: 0 Not 1-3. With the other it don't work. I think it's for the players 2-4. But as player 1 you need only paddle 0. I have the StellaX v1.1.3a. Work great. But the first time you must move your mouse very long till the paddle move. I hope that will help you. Matthias [ 08-31-2001: Message edited by: MattyXB ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquid_sky Posted August 31, 2001 Share Posted August 31, 2001 Try setting the mouse to emulate paddle 0. Start a new game, and jerk that mouse around and hope it works.. I always get sucess when i have the mouse emulating paddle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattyXB Posted September 1, 2001 Share Posted September 1, 2001 I think you can use the mouse as paddle by the most emulators (StellaX if I not wrong). Matthias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
