- What is all that stuff about?
- -----------------------------
-
- We are talking about a great invention that adds a new dimension to PC gaming.
- If you belong to the big group of people who always missed two player
- games on the PC, let us tell you that the unhappy times are over. The
- Multi Joystick Interface makes it possible to play games with not just
- two, but with up to six players simultaneously. As you will discover, six
- player games are even more fun than two player games. Dig out all your old
- Atari or Commodore joysticks, as you will never need to worry about
- malfunctioning analogue joysticks again.
-
- To put it in more sober words:
-
- The Multi Joystick Interface is a device that makes it possible to connect
- up to six digital joysticks (Atari type) to the parallel port of your
- PC. For test (or two player gaming) purposes, two joysticks can be
- emulated by the keyboard, so you can try out the games before you
- actually decide to build an interface.
-
- In this software package, you find:
-
- a) the description you need for building a multi joystick interface
- b) test programs useful for checking your interface
- c) Pascal and C routines you can use to develop software for the interface
-
-
- Don't miss the games, they are not included in this package. You can
- find them at

- For those of you without ftp access, there is also a mail server. Just mail
- a message with 'help' as body to
