Graphics Tablet under emulation

Marle · 23 August 2018, 22:29

Hiya,

Is there any way to get my graphics tablet on my Mac to work well on WinUAE when used as a mouse e.g in DPaint? At the moment it is virtually impossible to use. Is there anything that can be done about this?

Or am I going to have to plump for Mac+Aseprite for the time being until I can get a compatible Amiga tablet at a reasonable price?

Thanks!
Vicky

Did you tick "Install virtual mouse driver" in Game Ports panel?

Pardon what may be an idiot question but wouldn't you be using FS-UAE if you are using a Mac?

I've had some experience with tablets and WinUAE, but not on Mac...

Sorry I didn't explain! Usually yes but I tend to use WinUAE under VirtualBox, it just has a few more functions than the native FS UAE, or so least I can tell. I do use FS UAE though sometimes

Did you tried wine for macOS?

Thank you so much it works! That's amazing! That gives me some scope to focus on using my tablet with an 'Amiga' rather than drawing the outlines on the Mac proper!

Why would I want to do this? Are there some advantages?
