I been building an arcade machine using windows 7 and i have many peripherals connected and assined to different inputs.
I have 7 mic connections to the computer 3 of them just for more input buttons and the other 4 used to track x and y coordinates. (and even more keyboards but that i have all working)
Usb 1 want set to my wireless keyboard and mouse combo (mouse 1)
Usb 2 to IR gun 2 (mouse 2)
Usb 3 to IR gun 3 (mouse 3)
Usb 4 to mouse 4 track ball (mouse 4)
When I set the program (mame) to:
Gun 2 (mouse 2) as player 1
Gun 3 (mouse 3) so player 2
Trackball (mouse 4)
Every thing works fine. TILL I restart the computer and the order will change to which ever device is detected first.
So
Gun 2 can become Gun 1 (Mouse 1)
Trackball will become (mouse 2)
and so on.
This will cause chaos to my maping and calabration and I will need to remap and calabrate to every game I want to play. I don't like this as this become inconvenient to me and my friend when switching game to play. Is their a way to set Ports and ID numbers to these Peripherals so they will not change? Thanks to all that replies.
