Now RunInUAE joystick fun time. Games work great just like being on the real thing.

BUT, joysticks are a nightmare. I have two Competition Pro USB joysticks from my x86 setup.

Plugged them in and went through Amigainput and calibrated them. Assigned the low level device/buttons/x and y axis.

The assigned the joystick, shared settings and then default joystick.

Loaded a game to test (Dr Who) and yippie the fire button works. Started the game and the Dr kept on wanting to go left, firing wasn't an issue.

Quit out and tried a couple more games all pulling left.

The saga continues :-)

Amigainput is very buggy, will lockup and cause the grimreaper to appear...

Might see if there is a way of resetting it.

So fiddling around with the calibration screen and now it takes off to the right.

So it looks like an issue how Amigainput calibrates the joystick.

Will keep playing :-/

Sorted the calibration thing out, the competition pro seems to be really sensitive under OS4.

Smoking Guns - Well installed out then I had to find a missing library. As with anything Amiga this is a hard task. Eventually downloaded from Aminet dev/lib/libbz2.lha then renamed it to libz.so.1 and put it in the SObjs folder. Now loads fine.
Once in the game the most I can achieve is 11-13 FPS then when a couple of bots appear it drops down to 2-3 FPS and becomes unplayable. Even after turning off all the features and dropping the resolution down. Deleted Smoking Guns.

Next....

Urban Terror, as per Smoking guns I forgot to mention you need to download the libboostygfx library.
Once that was sorted went to load it, bamn comes up with couldn't load default.cfg.
So thinking this is a Quake3 based game it uses the same config file. Copied this over and tried again, still same issue.
Moved on to the next game...
Zelda Solarus DX, works great but can't get it to go full screen. stuck with a tiny window. Plus it's in another language.
Super Mario War - Great little game, feels like the retro Mario but couldn't get into it.
1941dx dual - This isn't a bad game and runs okay, and at full screen. But prefer the original 1941. Picked up on two joysticks and seem to work as intended.
MiniSlug-OS4 - Really enjoying it, even down to the scanlines :-) But I wish I could make it full screen :-/
Reminisence - Flashback engine, still on the hunt for some data files.
BeatsofRage - Same deal, still looking for the data files.

LinCity NG - this is quite addictive, a shame it runs like a dog. even at 640x480. :-/ I would rate it right up there with Sim City, maybe even a little better :-)

The best util I've come across so far is eGame it is fantastic. I even donated some money to get the key for it.
I would say it was as good as if not better than igame. The only thing I'd want to add is the option to add entire folders of games like in the case of WHDLoad. Other than that you must get this util :-)

Urbanterror - now I get the ID logo then it goes to a black screen. So I guess that's progress. Don't think I'll waste anymore time on it as there are plenty of forum posts mentioning the same issue.

Decided to try Nicky Boum today from os4 depot. So it states it needs data files from the original DOS version and some from the project web page.

So downloaded the DOS version and the PPC exe and put it together, went to the project page... page is gone. :-/

Nevermind next...
