As groepaz mentioned, I'm working on the joystick code to allow mapping buttons, including auto-fire at some point. This however will take some time, merging the threaded branch takes priority.
Also, since the joystick code is different on Windows, MacOS, *BSD and Linux, this will take some time. I'm not much of a Windows hacker so to me the Windows DirectInput code looks like it'll open a portal to Hell.
So, patience please. I like working on VICE, but I'd occasionally also like to work on C64 code/gfx.
thanks man, it will be awesome to have it, waiting patiently until then :) |

FYI
I've contacted the "moderators" to remove the trollposts from here, as rules say " if you don't have anything valueable to add to a thread, do not post" they did nothing, no wonder them and an ex mod is doing the trolling. + friends ? |

definition of trolling. all the valuable thing you had to add here you put into ( ) while your trolling was the important part. |

Oswald, please, make another message to mods with list of posts. So we know what posts you see as "trolling", I can't guarantee they will be moderated (very probably not), but at least I will understand what's bugging you here. So far I skimmed through the debate and it seems you guys were getting somewhere, so it's working the way how it should work, more or less.
And yeah, Groepaz is pita. |

In the time it took to you write posts and complain to "moderators" you could have walked to the shops and bought a controller with autofire :o ;) I've never had any need for autofire. I find it useful for some shoot'em up arcade titles but that's about it. I've always seen it as cheating, so, I doubt I'll get much support for that belief :) |

We discussed it, and humour is allowed. Nothing harmful, hurtful or provoking has been said. And C0's and my comments about USB-joystick solution was supposed to be fun, but it also works. It will give you autofire in Vice, just like on the real thing. |

Ive opened this topic to get help in why the autofire in vice is greyed out / missing / not working. I thought its somehow configurable only I'm missing something.
Telling me to buy this or that (for the 4th time in a row) with subtle hints I'm such an idiot for not doing that, or asserting I'm acting here like an idiot customer and demanding autofire (hi zesmasher) doesnt help.
Somehow I dont feel making fun of politely asking for help is funny, or having to swimm through all this shit to finally learn that autofire was never done. Better not ask here next time. |
