Hi guys, I was hoping I wouldnt have to come asking questions but I'm baffled here...

I have a Xin-mo Dual for my HS/MAME setup but I'm having a few weird issues. Firstly, there seems to be a discrepancy between what the Xin-mo thinks is P1 Joystick and what Windows and HS think is P1 joystick...this shouldn't be an issue in itself, but it leads into another problem:

When trying to set controls up in HyperHQ (was under the impression that this works now) I can get both P1 and P2 buttons to select and escape etc in HS but only my P2 joystick will control the wheel...can this be remedied?

On that same note, has the enable joystick control feature in HyperHQ actually been fixed and I'm missing something, or does it still not work properly and therefore I should just get xpadder?

Aaaand finally, when I enable the joystick feature in HyperHQ, launching HS will skip the intro vid and go straight to the main wheel. Unchecking the enable joystick option will then start HS with the intro vid as normal.

I've been searching and searching but can not find any up-to-date info on this, as it all seems to be for HS 1.3 (with broken joystick support) and not the updated version. Can anyone please help shed some light on what I may be missing? Thanks in advance ;)

You still need to keep Joysticks, Trackballs and Spinners disabled in HyperHQ... they no worky.

No idea about your other Xin Mo issues though, but I can say there have been just over 1 jillion topics here of people having Xin Mo trouble so maybe  a search would turn something up.

Cheers for the reply, will take heed and go with xpadder then. I have had a blinking good look around tge interwebz but couldnt find anything that helped my particular situation. Thanks for your input :)

Thought I'd update this for anyone with similar issues...

 

So I found a sort of fix for most of my issues, firstly I changed the P1 and P2 over on the xin-mo, went into HyperHQ and set the ID of joystick 2 as my P1 stick. Set up the HQ joy 2 with the P1 stick and buttons and that allowed me to control the HS wheel with my P1 setup.

To get HS to still play the intro vid whilst having joystick enabled I had to uncheck the "skip intro on button press" box, whilst that's checked, if I load HS up it just jumps straight to the MAME wheel (must be some conflict due to the still buggy joystick support)...but, I can now load HS, navigate it, jump into MAME, navigate that wheel and select game and also exit, all with my arcade stick and buttons...kind of a result...BUT...just tried the exact same method on a Win 10 machine (this was on Win7) and it no worky. So a mixed bag of results.

 

Overall, I'm happy with it at least working on my main desktop, I did want to use the win10 machine in a cab build so unless there's another HS update that sorts the joystick control I think I'll go with a Teensy or an IPAC for that.

Anyway, if anyone is having similar issues, the above is worth a shot ;)
