problem: gamebase resets winvice ini?

[awarringa1]

Hi there,

I got a weird probem.. when I run winvice without gamebase, I select my joystick (TheArcade joystick ) and then I save the settings, everything is fine the next time I run winvice, the joystick is still selected.

But through gamebase each time the controller is being reset to 'keyset B'on the second gameport. Even when I set it back to joystick and save, the next time it's keyset B again.

In the emu settings I have selected the correct path for the winvice ini file..

Anyone got an idea how I can fix this?

Regards
Andre

Hi Andre,

GameBase is automatically setting the control method depending on the "Control" entry for each game.
If you want GameBase to use your own joystick settings by default you have to modify following part in the WinVICE GEMUS script:

;set the game controls
If Control = JoyPort2
Add_CLP( -joydev1 0)
Add_CLP( -joydev2 3)
ElseIf Control = JoyPort1
Add_CLP( -joydev1 3)
Add_CLP( -joydev2 0)
Else
Add_CLP( -joydev1 0)
Add_CLP( -joydev2 0)
End If

You just have to change the number of the joystick device number for port 1 and 2 controlled games. If you don't know what value to use, check out "your" vice.ini file.
