Please note that these Sega-Adaptors will be
supported by all games/emulators using lowlevel.library on Amiga OS 4. I wrote a Driver for AmigaInput for them some while ago, and there is a special version of lowlevel.library for OS 4, which maps the CD32 Buttons to an AmigaInput device.

Actually you even can freely choose the mapping using the GUI of AmigaInput.

Hi!

At least currently support for pads using special adapters (like Sega...) is only existing on Classic Amiga. I am working currently on a Joystick-Driver (PC Analog-Stick) for the AmigaOne, though.

Well, a CD32 Pad should work, as you can use it as
a Digital Joystick also anyways :) The directions are like the directions of a digital stick, and the red button is like the fire button...

Only the ones which need adapters (Sega, 4-Player,...) will need
a Classic Amiga. And well, it would be possible that someone writes Drivers to support those on Catweasel too I guess...

Hi!

BTW: Anybody who has some other cool joystick-adapters and might be interested in testing some code please write me. I have myselves PSX Port, PC Joystick Adapter and Sega-Pads already.

Depends on how this adaptor works... does it "emulate" the pad as a USB Game-Adapter or what does it do ? A USB Gamepad Driver for AmigaOne is in works...

Cannonfodder: Well, if special Drivers are needed I cannot say for sure if it will work... is there a SDK for developers (or Linux Drivers) available ?

I am thinking to investigate if PSX Port can be made working on the A1 with a new Driver... not right now, though.
