The Microsoft SideWinder should be plug and play with XP. The following are the instructions I gave him.
#Stargate arcade control panel Pc#
(The PC I'm using is a 866Mhz Pentium III, with 512mb). While testing out this control panel I experienced the kind of lag that you get when the CPU is over-loaded processing a lot of on-screen movement, but I experienced it regardless of whether there was a lot going on or not. Lastly, I was told about a "lag" issue in MAME when playing StarGate. I had to cannibalize several control panels to get what I needed to build this one up, but it is done. He wanted a dirty CP with a tight joystick and loose buttons.(Which is what you want for this game). I built this for a friend who is practicing to get the MAME record.

and the green button is as yet not designated. At the front of the control panel the blue buttons convey the inputs I connected to them. In the diagram below, the red buttons are the working default SideWinder->StarGate buttons. (Apparently, by default, these three inputs are not used in MAME). "Mode" is just to turn the SideWinder off, but I also don't at present have the "Shift" and "Start" connected completely because the are always "on".(I don't know if that would be an issue).īut I'm hoping that at least one of those two can be re-mapped also. The only leads that I haven't as yet connect to ground are the one's belonging to A) Start: SW #9, B) Shift(M): SW#10, and C) Mode inputs.
