Flink problem

Hi guys

I have a very simple question. When I load up a WHDload version of Flink, after watching the introduction (title screen) I press start button on my joystick to start and nothing happens. I then press my mouse button and next thing I know I am looking at an AmigaDos screen waiting for me to enter a command? I have no idea what I am doing wrong here? All my other WHDload games work just fine but this one..no way!

Any ideas?

Flink is a CD32 game. Either you need a CD32 joypad or use the Joypad emulation via keys.

Code:
The game is designed for joypad use only. To make it playable with a
	joystick too a joypad emulation via the keyboard has been implemented.
	The default joypad to keyboard assignment is as follows:
		Blue - Stop		- F1 (Action)
		Green - Shuffle		- F2 (NTSC/PAL)
		Yellow - Repeat		- F3 (Cast spell)
		Grey - Play/Pause	- F4 (Pause)
		Left Ear - Reverse	- F5 (unused)
		Right Ear - Forward	- F6 (unused)
	You can change the keys using the Custom tooltype. The template for
	the string is "Blue/K,Green/K,Yellow/K,Grey/K,LeftEar/K,RightEar/K".
	Example to set Grey button to Space and Blue to Del:
		Custom=grey $40 blue $46
	To get lowlevel.library detect a joystick you must move the stick
	right/left or up/down a few times. After this the emulation will
	start to work.
	You can also add/use the option Force to the Custom tooltype to
	disable the auto sensing of the lowlevel.library and to force it to
	assume a joystick is connected and enable the joypad emulation.
		Custom=grey $40 blue $46 force

It should work just ok with a joystick in WHDLoad. What slave version are you using? Have you read the Flink WHDLoad readme?
