      @majin-wamu post it here first so we can take a look. with log files, i'm hoping the issue is obvious.

        @dankcushions Before I start, you said in verbose mode. I am not sure if I know what that is. I have putty ready to go, are you telling me to run the game in a different way, other than selecting it off of the menu?

          @majin-wamu you can launch with verbose logging via the runcommand (the menu that appears before a game is launched).

            @dankcushions Oh, I actually disabled that menu screen. Alright I will enable it again and look for it. which option would it be under to launch with verbose?

              @majin-wamu I think it's on the top level of the menu - "Launch with verbose logging"

                  Here's my log file after running Blasteroids with lr-mame2003. It works with my trackball which is useless, as I also have spinners where I split XY amongst Player 1 and 2. They are non-responsive.

                    @caver01 So your trackball works? Is there maybe something I can do to my setup to make it work? Or is it because of the mini-pac I am using and the separate trackball?

                      @majin-wamu I don't think you are paying attention to my notes above. I have two mouse inputs. Only one works. For me, the one that works happens to be my trackball, but my spinners are not working. For you it's the opposite. It does not matter that mine happens to be a trackball and you don't have a spinner attached. It appears as though mame is only paying attention to one mouse device. It changed. It used to pay attention to all mouse devices at the same time.

                        @caver01 Yes, but I am asking why is it that at least one of your mouse inputs are working and none for me? My assumption has to do with something you did say earlier, which is the fact that the minipac has mouse inputs. The reason why I don't just plug my mouse into the minipac's prongs is because the way my trackball is wired to a harness. The wires don't match the prong inputs, they are mixed up, so I had to plug them into a usb that can handle the inputs, and then plug that into the pi. The only way to test my theory is to cut the wires, and reorganize them so they match the correct order, but I don't want to take that risk and permanently ruin the trackball but making a mistake.

                          @majin-wamu my theory is that your minipac might be working, but you are not plugged into it. Just like my Utrak is working, but my Turbo Twist spinner interface is not. It’s as if the emulator is using one of your mouse interfaces, but you don’t get to choose which one. For you, it’s not the one you are using for your trackball. For me, it’s not the one for my spinners.

                          In a previous version, all mouse devices worked at the same time. Not any more.

                            correct.

                            this is a retroarch change. previously, you would only be able to have one abstracted mouse device, which would be an amalgamation of inputs from whatever mice you had connected to your system. want two player trackball games? bad news...

                            now thanks to the change, mice are treated exactly the same as controllers. each mouse is a treated as a seperate player. the problem @Majin-Wamu has is they have several mice connected, and the trackball will be currently assigned to player 2 or higher. you can change this through the menu.

                            i’ll go through the log and give more specific advice later.

                                Edit: Okay thanks to dankcushions' explanation, I found a way to fix it! So this might help you too Caver.
                                Solution:
                                Go to the retroarch menu, go to inputs, select the user binds you want to change, go to mouse index and change it until you have found the working index! For me it was 2. If you have multiple mice, you can change them appropriately. I set both user 1 and user 2 to the same mouse index since I only have one trackball plugged in.

                                I hope this helps others who might be having this issue as well.

                                  @majin-wamu that's great! thanks for the explanation as i've never personally used this new functionality :D

                                  @caver01, i think this will work for you. I'm not sure about the share x/y setting - i guess it should work once you have the spinner assigned to player 1 (or whatever).

                                  i guess if you'd previously used different mouse devices (trackball for centipede, spinner for blasteroids, etc) for player 1 in multiple games (thanks to the previous 'every mouse is player 1!' issue), you will now have to set up cfg overrides for each game, setting the right mouse device as player 1.

                                    @dankcushions Since this is a new option, should we add some instruction to the wiki? I am assuming it is the community who updates the wiki, or is it is a select group?

                                        @caver01 I just started on on a new section for the RetroPie docs about multi-mouse configuration. Does what I have written here match your experience? https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Spinners,-Trackballs,-Lightguns,-and-other-Mouse-Devices#configuring-retroarch-emulators-for-multi-mouse-use

                                          I gotta say, assuming I can get this working (it sounds like @Majin-Wamu has it working) this is actually GREAT NEWS! It means we can, with minor configuration effort, setup a matrix of mouse inputs. There will be plenty of questions and feedback from users, but the net result is a lot more flexibility.

                                          @dankcushions said in [Solved] Trackball not working after 4.3 update:

                                          you will now have to set up cfg overrides for each game, setting the right mouse device as player 1.

                                          I am definitely OK with individual overrides, since my indices would have to change from ROM to ROM. This is perfect, actually, as I like having direct control over the setting. Since I do see the mouse devices in my log file, the only question I have is: what exactly to I add to my .cfg file? I am imagining it is something like player_x_mouse_index = or something like that.

                                          @markwkidd Great write-up and addition to my trackballs/spinners wiki. The only addition I would include is whatever the answer is to my question above.
