MAME .117+ and GlovePIE keyboard incompatibility

So far my research has found that MAME versions greater than .117 (.118 and up) are not compatible with GlovePIE at all. This seems to have something to do with GlovePIE’s support of multiple keyboards and how multiple keyboards were implemented after MAME .117. I have yet to figure out any fixes or workarounds on my own nor have I found any solutions from other web pages or forums.
Fortunately JoyMonkey.com has an excellent archive of MAME versions. If you want to GlovePIE to work, go download MAME .117 and you shouldn’t have any problems.

Hi Mame-Mia,
No, I never found a proper fix for this problem. I did play with PPJoy a little but I decided that it was too much of a nuisance work-around. I’ll just stick with MAME .117 until a proper fix is found.
