#2026 WOJ userport joy adapter reports values inverted

[Dieter Baron]

hi,

the Wheel of Joy (WOJ) userport joystick adapter reports bits as 0 when not pressed and 1 when pressed, it should be the reverse:

Quoting the documentation at https://github.com/SukkoPera/WheelOfJoy: "Every bit will be 0 if the corresponding direction/button is pressed, 1 otherwise."

I've confirmed this with real hardware: The attached program works on real hardware and clearly shows the problem when run in Vice. Press F7, then F2 to switch to the Wheel of Joy screen.

I've tested this with VICE 3.8 (GTK3 3.24.38, GLib 2.78.0, Cairo 1.17.6, Pango 1.50.14)

Never heard about this adapter - does it even match one of those that VICE emulates? Which one did you select?

[Querino]

Which one did you select?

probably the "WOJ userport joy adapter" :)

here a question arises. why some joystick adapters (in userport devices) are labeled as "userport xxxxxx joy adapter" while others are "xxxxxx userport joy adapter"?
what is the logic behind this?

[gpz]

No specific logic at all i think :)

[gpz]

Uhm, and which Adapter should i select in "Joyride"? shrug

edit: oops, i started an older version of joyride - i see it now :)

fixed in r45152 - cheers!
