Is there a way to enable mouse support in games with mGalaxy ?
I'm using command line MAME as the emulator
Do you remember the site "MAME ROM Links" ? - That was me way back then.....

Sure, you just need to configure it in mame itself, it s not mGalaxy dependant.

It's a parameter that is passed into Mame as "-mouse" so it's something mGalaxy would need to pass in when it shells out to the command line to run Mame.
Configuring it in mame doesn't work - I've tried on Operation Wolf, it only works if I run Operation Wolf with this parameter being passed into mame.

Is there an option to add additional command line parameters to the mame call in mGalaxy ? That would work also

You just need to configure mame, using mame.ini, you can enable mouse for all game, same for lightgun, trackball and other.

I have just make the try ATM with arknaoid.
