Mouse or trackball as lightgun does not work in MAME from Retrobat

Hello!

I have configured a trackball and a mouse in MAME as a lightgun and I have created game profiles in Mame to put the fire buttons on the buttons of the mouse. It works perfectly when I start the games directly from Mame.
I then copied the MAME default.cfg to \RetroBat\bios\cfg and the respective Game.cfg to \RetroBat\saves\mame\ctrlr (name is identical to the name of the Game.zip). In RetroBat, the default.cfg is also used for MAME games as I have also configured my joysticks in it. If I integrate the respective Game.cfg for a lightgun game via the controller profile, this is apparently ignored because when I check the input settings in the game via tab, they do not match what I have configured in the Game.cfg. However, if I copy the Game.cfg to \RetroBat\bios\mame\cfg, the correct input settings are displayed in the game via tab, but both the mouse and trackball do not work, and there is no button for the mouse. I can switch off the "Configure controller automatically" option in the advanced settings or leave it set to automatic, which makes no difference. Now I don't know what to do, please help me...

Regards!
Mike

You need to select to use the "per-game" profile in retrobat advanced control options for mame

Per game profile is active and if I then call up the input configuration of the game after starting the game using the tab key, the mouse and the corresponding key are also assigned accordingly, but it still doesn't work! Neither the crosshair nor the fire button react - I have tested several games where the assignment in MAME runs smoothly even without Retrobat but as soon as I start the whole thing via Retrobat it doesn't work...

Can you show your emulatorlauncher.log ?

I have found a solution...in the advanced system options - Controls - I have set Lightgun Device = Mouse and both trackball and mouse work. I just leave the Fire Button on my X-Arcade board, there's no other way with the trackball anyway!
Thanks for the support, I still have to familiarise myself with various functions in RetroBat that are not available in LaunchBox/BigBox and I'm already pretty impressed with the possibilities RetroBat offers!

Can you still share emulatorlauncher.log just to ensure the file in saves\mame\crtlr is used ?

is there an option here to attach a file to my post? Posting the log here is a bit too much text...
