    Arcade Adapter for Mac*Man

    awesome !!! thanks to you. I looked at the code. Maybe it will be easier to crack the game to delete the check :ROFLMAO: I have the impression that the adapter sold with Macman does not convert the signal received, it is the drivers integrated into the Macman game which does it. In other words...

    Me too, maybe the joystick centers itself when plugged in with the official adapter? I'm going to continue to dig into the subject on the software side...

    Arcade Adapter for Mac*Man

    I just finalized the adapter. It allows you to connect old Atari joysticks from the 80s. I don't despair of being able to play Macman with it one day. For now I'm already enjoying Arkanoid!!! Thank you again for your help.

    Arcade Adapter for Mac*Man

    Hello I just finished the connections and I'm trying to modify your program to take into account that I have 4 switches and not 2 potentiometers. I manage to move the mouse in all directions but it moves very slowly. Horrible! How can I change the default speed? Thank you again for your help...

    Arcade Adapter for Mac*Man

    Arcade Adapter for Mac*Man

    I don't know how to launch the debugger. I tried to search in resedit to see if there was not a hidden information. Is there any software to advise me? Knowing that apparently just plugging in the adapter (without the joystick) is enough to allow the computer to detect it.

    Macman is not the only compatible game. Apache strike from the company silicon beach software and surely Dark castle too. There is therefore a strong interest in finding a solution to redo this adapter.
