RE: [advancemame-users] Controls Question

[Kevin B. <km...@in...>]

In advmame.rc these show-up as "input_map" functions--would need to know
more about your specific set-up to tell you exactly what the lines are
that you'd need. For instance, what keys are the controls you named
normally mapped to? How is the joystick interfaced [e.g. is it a pc
joystick or an arcade joystick with the switches wired to a keyboard
encoder].

Assuming everything's running through a keyboard encoder, using standard
mappings, here are some examples [assuming you meant p1 joystick]:

p2 start + joystick right = 'tab'
input_map[ui_configure] keyboard[0,2] keyboard[0,right]

p2 start + joystick down = 'pause'
input_map[ui_pause] keyboard[0,2] keyboard[0,down]

...I'm not sure what the other two controls are, I think
"ui_on_screen_display" and "ui_select"

The easier way to set these up is from within the UI by pulling-up the
configuration menu and selecting the controls you want to change there
and entering the new keys/buttons. Unless you're wanting to do some
fancier "not" conditions or use mouse movements to trigger keys, you can
pretty much do it all there without hand-coding the lines in advmame.rc.

Also, if you use an I-PAC keyboard encoder, a lot of this is programmed
in the encoder already.

Subject: [advancemame-users] Controls Question

Can anyone tell me how to setup the following in advmame.rc?

p2 start + joystick right = 'tab'

p2 start + joystick down = 'pause'

p2 start + joystick left = '~'

p2 start + joystick right = 'enter'

I would usually shut up and figure it out but I am under the gun on a
project for a friend and am running out of time.  If you can help I
would
greatly appreciate it.

James
