It would be great if you could update this video with the current gen Tanksticks that come with the PCB board and Xinput. The tankstick documentation is good but a current video speaking to the difference between the Xinput and the standard keyboard input on the Tankstick would be great.
This was just now added to support the X-Arcade Tankstick? Are you sure there are no config files that can be dropped in LaunchBox like I did with Maximus Arcade? I am going to build a new MAME machine with LaunchBox but surprised there is no native support for the X-Arcade Tankstick? Do you know how many MAME cabinets exist with Tanksticks in them? Tens of thousands I am sure. I have had mine since 2008. I also have the X-Arcade official full cabinet. Love it!
I have a TankStick that I am trying to use with either RetroArch or Batocera. I can't get either to recognize that there are 2 joysticks instead of one.
Nice, quick video. Will help me setup my Ultimarc keyboard encoder. Thanks.
Excellent news, i have a Tank Stick amongst others as wanted a easy setup for that.
You don't know how much I want this arcade stick. The trackball can help me kick some ass in sega sonic the hedgehog
The trackball is a beast with Battletoads and Golden Tee! Both made for trackballs...
:)
No set-up required for the Trackball ? As it is just a mouse ?
Inside LaunchBox yes it acts as a mouse, but in games you need to configure it but I think X-Arcade has a config file for Mame.
Tanksticks now ship with the triboard controller board upgrade. It now acts as 2 individual Xbox controllers when switched to the new mode:

If they made a new one that came with a spinner, or an alternate one that came with flight sticks and trigger buttons, i would totally buy a second tankstick. i've had mine for ten years and i love it.
I have an Xbox one controller and want to use that with everything but my mame. How do I keep that controller for everything and add xarcade for mame?
Came back to find out and sucks to see I still don't have an answer.
How do I add my trackball to play games on lunchbox
I am using launchbox..... how did you get that dial/spinner of systems thing? mine isn't nearly as slick as yours.
I saw your video on the tankstick and you said we needed ver 9.8, I checked and I have 9.1, do I need to get a beta version for 9.8 ? Thanks for any help
But it's like controller bigbox's setting??? What's difference for my bartop?
Awesome, thanks!.
Have a two week old tank stick just like in the picture . Can get to the same screen he does but when I hit down or up etc . Nothing happens at all. The power light is on. There has to be some new difference to change it to maybe controller mode or something he is skipping to say in the video
I have Launchbox 10.0 installed on my cabinet and when I tried a secondary controller key with my tankstick it replaced the button, it didn't add it like it shows at the 1:32 mark in this video. Am I doing something incorrectly?
I'm confused. If you use LB/BB as your frontend, why do you need to install RetroArch as another frontend?
Awesome!
Set up player 2, It recognised down (key F) but when I actually press down I get nothing. Any ideas what might be causing this?
Didnt work for me, could it be my X-Arcade is too old?
I have retroarch (launchbox/bigbox). How do i set up my ultimarc trackball? I got the computer to recognize the mouse and i can move the trackball around. Same in retroarch, the trackball moves around like a mouse, but i dont know how to get it to work in games. PLEASE HELP! AGAIN I AM USING RETROARCH AND NOT MAME OR RETROPIE!!! THANKS!
This video works if this for this time progamming?
launchbox in big box has an arcade mode to block it and that if you put a coin unlocks?
can the pc be turned off directly with the joystick connected to bigbox? thank you...
I got the joystick for player 1 and 2 set up but what about mapping the buttons for players 1 through 4 and admin buttons? Player 1 and 2 have 6 buttons and player 3 and 4 have 4 buttons. I also have 4 admin buttons. TIA!
Do you know how to change the keyboard inputs mapped to the stick. The main two buttons on my stick are mapped to control and alt and when I use my stick to move it flips the screen over and kicks me out of the game. I would appreciate if someone could help
How the hell do u get the track ball to work
ETA - Please make a video on how to setup the emu AAE for LB...it works better than MAME with those type of games visually and feel...I know that you like to use individual EMUs instead of using Retro...thanks in advance
看了你们做的整和rom极其漂亮，做的很好。希望能学到制作方法
Can you create a video of programing the trackball on the tankstick? i want to play bowling, golf and centipede.
I would program it in mame.
what do I do if I screwed up and now my select button has no key command and now I cant select anything. Is there a way to set everything back to the default in BIG BOX?
Currently doing the same thing I just reinstalled but I'm sure there is a config file
Wow
Hello, thank you for your video but do you know if most of the emulators work inside bigbox/launchbox . For example, if i launch a game, my x-arcade is recognized and i can play witjout configuring anything..?If not, do we need the new pcb to get x-input and play without configuring anything...I mean, if emulators are of course already configured with xbox 360 controllers...
NEW PCB with x-input

Yo I deleted my enter button what should I do
Go in your Launchbox directory and unzip a previous file in the backup directory and replace all the files, happened to me also. Kinda late but might help someone else! Unfortunately this video here didnt fix my issue, hold button doesnt work but maybe its just for retroarch.
Now if only i could get one shipped to the UK for a decent price. It costs more to ship than the actual stick does. :(
It was i while back that i looked. Just checked again, Tankstick $199, shipping to the UK $129, so $330 all in.
Don't pay $330 for one! I have one and it's definitely not worth that much... I wouldn't pay anymore than £100 for one tbh. I basically had to replace everything inside the tankstick. The only thing I kept was the side panels and the base (even the panel had to go because it's too thick for most replacement sticks).
@@studioviper3016 yeah dont worry i aint paying that ever. When i first looked and the shipping doubled the price i ended up getting a Mayflash F500 off of Amazon UK for £79. This was my first arcade stick and i have been happy with it for MAME. Im sure there are better arcade sticks, but i spent a lot of years playing real arcade games in my local, and i dont remember how they felt now, as this was the early 90's.
Check out how much it costs to ship the Xtension "Emulator Edition" controller from RecRoomMasters. I own both and the Xtension is way better in my opinion. They are also about to officially release a firmware update that can switch on the fly between the default raw input, to direct input and x-input. I just started using it in x-input mode for my Steam fighting games (MK9 - MK11 & Killer Instinct) and it recognizes them as 2 Xbox controllers perfectly. It works much better than any of the button remapping to Xbox buttons software at least as far as Steam games go.
I have one to sell from germany if you are interested
