English Amiga Board - View Single Post - Using 9 pin joysticks on Amiga emulator

Hey Martjin,

Have you seen this project? It may have some ideas that you may want to borrow for yours. It's not mine but it's something that I've been considering using it for my emulation setup. Besides joysticks, it does an Amiga mouse too. Actually there's a mode that seems to autodetect a mouse or joystick is plugged in which seems pretty nifty if it actually works (haven't looked into the code enough to see if it automatically changes reporting as a HID Mouse/Joystick to the host though)

BTW I hope you don't think I'm knocking your work at all - unlike your project, the one I've mentioned only implements one input - I love the pro micros, good form factor, a good number of 5V capable I/O pins and built in USB (and the clones are dirt cheap so if you destroy one, you don't feel too bad - not that I would admit to mistreating these things

)
