Sounds good. Any luck getting OS4 to recognize it? This is the main selling point for us imho |

| Great news!
Confirmed today, the adapter with firmware 2.0 now support Amiga NG under Amiga OS4.1!
This means you can use your old joysticks on your new Amiga.
Cheers!

Does JIT help with gaming, now? _________________ This weeks pet peeve: Using "voltage" instead of "potential", which leads to inventing new words like "amperage" instead of "current" (I, measured in A) or possible "charge" (amperehours, Ah or Coulomb, C). Sometimes I don't even know what people mean. |

The adapter works fine with old Amiga joysticks in RunInUae, but when I try to load a "NG" game (i.e. Giana's Return, Aquaria, 1943 Deluxe etc.) I have always a Gream Reaper.
Does it depend from single button joysticks that are incompatible with new games or there's some problem with the adapter?
Have you tried some of these games with your Tac2? Last edited by kyle on 09-Feb-2013 at 11:00 PM.

I was trying to use sz81 earlier, and got a GR. The stack trace pointed to PCICatweasel.driver. I moved that out of libs:AmigaInput and rebooted, and the GR was gone. Simply unticking the Catweasel driver in AmigaInput Prefs doesn't work for some reason.
I suspect your issue is the same.

Good catch Chris! That is the kind of thing that some of us might not think of until after we have bashed our heads against the wall for a day or two. _________________ Amiga! The computer that inspired so many, to accomplish so much, but has ended up in the hands of . . . . . . . . . . |

What kind of GR do you get? The games you are talking about need more than one button joysticks. Gianas Return is working with usb-dapter but i can only use two buttons with my cd32 competition pro. Same goes for Sqrxz1,2,3.
I also moved PCICatweasel.driver out from libs:amigainput. _________________ AmigaOS on Google+ AmigaOS on Facebook |

I've removed PCICatweasel.driver and now I can load NG games Giana's return is playable with 1 button joysticks, other games like Cave story or Hurrican need a 2 button joystick or a joypad.
However I still have some random grim reaper, here a pic of the error (maybe related with usb stack?)

so dose the full CD32 controls work with on the Os4? might have to get one.
Was hoping to find a Cstweasl 4 which I believe also allowed old controllers being attached. _________________ AmigaNG, YouTube, LeaveReality Studio |

Hey Guys!
You might try to update your firmware to 2.1. It's now available on the Retronic Design website: http://www.retronicdesign.com/en/download/
Might fix some issues. Also, are you using the special firmware for CD32 joypad? This one enable the full 7 buttons. Last edited by Nitz76 on 29-Oct-2013 at 03:32 AM.

| I bought a Logitech Wingman Precision USB joypad and built one of these.
I've tested it under Windows, Linux, and MorphOS, and it works great. I guess it *should* work on Amiga OS 4.x too. _________________
