Paddle Controller Support in WinVICE64...?

I just bought a one-port pair of Atari 2600 VCS/Commodore 8-bit computers paddle controllers, waited for them while I geared-up to play _Le Mans_ { http://www.gb64.com/game.php?id=4311&d=18&h=0 }, a game I always loved to play in the Good Old Days but haven't played in since forever, got them in the mail,...only to then find out that WinVICE64 never supported paddle-controllers.

Quite a few C64 games require paddles. Maybe now's a good time to add new paddle-support in WinVICE64? ???

Why are you posting that request here? Here's a link to Vice dev: https://sourceforge.net/projects/vice-emu/

But what puzzles me is that you bought paddles for your C64, and you are complaining about lack of paddle support in Vice? Hook your paddles up to your real C64 and play, dude.

Oh, and one more thing: Paddle support in Vice was added long ago.

You have to change mouse settings to Paddle in port 1, then press ALT-Q whilst the window is active to capture the pc mouse input as a paddle in-game.

Gosh, you ARE puzzled. What real C64? Who said anything about some real C64 that I don't have? ??? I said WinVICE64--it's an emulator, try it sometime, it works great...except for lack of full paddle-controller support.

That's not a paddle-controller, that's a mouse! I didn't think you wouldn't know the difference between a real C64 and an emu and between a paddle and a mouse. C'mon, man!

Bah! I'll just speak with the source--thanks for the link! You guys are the best and everyone knows it! hehehehehehe

Maybe they'll fit in the VGA port?

The serial port also uses DB-9 connector, so it must be compatible!
