I was wondering if anyone could make a couple of small changes and recompile PVCS for me... (insert beg here :P)
What I intend on doing is hacking a single PS1 or PS2 gamepad to allow me to plug in 2 Atari 2600 joysticks for use with the emulator.
I could hack 2 joypads, but was wondering if someone could just assign (hardcode) the player 2 up, down, left, right, and fire buttons to any of the unused buttons on the joypad in the ps2's port 1 in the source and recompile the elf for me. (I'm quite familiar with tweaking and compiling the MAME source, but I'm lost here.)
For example:
Keys on Joypad 1
=======================
Keep all Player 1 directonals the same, with "X" being Player 1 FIRE
R1 Reset (Start game)
R2 Exit game emulation
L1 P0 Difficulty Toggle
L2 P1 Difficulty Toggle
Select Select game mode
X or O Fire - (CHANGE THIS TO JUST "X") so that O = Player2 up
triangle - Player 2 Down
Square - Player 2 Left
left analog stick button - Playe r 2 Right
right analog stick button - Player 2 Fire
Know what I mean?
I kinda wanna make a small neat looking little thing to plug the joysticks into with the reset switch, select switch, difficulty momentary switches, etc, joystick ports, Atari logo, etc.
I'll glady document my project, take pics, and put up a little something to share for those interested in it... ;)
Thanks!
