Virtual gamepads are proving difficult to find for windows 8. Anybody have a clue which emulators, if any, run with built-in touch screen support? I already have APPS for SNES and ATARI with built-in support, but I would love a windows 8 solution for PS1, PS2, Gamecube, N64, MAME, etc. Cheers!

Thanks for the quick reply! I have read that an older version of MAME takes touchscreen input. Can I just drop that version of MAME in the GameEx folder, or is setup a little harder than that? I will track down that version and look for a virtual controller, too. I will post the results if I make any headway.

Hi all, I just got an HP Envy x2 Netbook/tablet hybrid with full version of Windows 8 Version 6.2 Build 9200. The log file is attached. I was unable to find an .ini file. I am running the version of MAME downloaded with the latest version of GameEx. I downloaded your software and all of the emulators that I think I would like to use and they play perfectly fine with the actual keyboard, but I am unable to get a virtual controller to pop up on the touchscreen or control a game at all with the touchscreen. I configured to allow touchscreen and mouse and tried different pairings of mouse on/off, controller on/off to no avail. Am I using the wrong version of MAME? Is there no touchscreen support for MAME? I tried the original NBA JAM, Ms.PAC Man, MK2. I really like the software and would be more than willing to make the donation if I could get the virtual controls on to work on the touchscreen. Please advise. Cheers! log.txt
