Thanks for the quick response! I just ran some tests with r46037 and its fixed now!
USBSID-Pico not connected error log
Configure Screenshot Directory
Ran some tests with gamepad buttons mapped to pause-toggle, snapshot-load, and snapshot-save and everything worked great! pause-toggle works as expected now...first press pauses game and next press resumes game. Thanks for fixing this...
Ran some more tests and everything works great! I mapped 2 other button actions "snapshot-load" and "snapshot-save" and they worked as expected. With that working and with the other change that compyx did for me (see #2192 Load and Save Snapshot File Dialog Default Directory), I'm now able to press a gamepad button to load/save a snapshot and have my configured snapshot dir show up as the default dir! These are some really nice updates! Now, if we could just get that pause-toggle to resume after...
I figured it out and got it working. On the settings page, I needed to go to the "Joystick" section and select my gamepad for Joystick #1. Then, it worked as you said. I saved with "Save defaults" and quit and restarted x64sc and it worked again. But, as you said it only pauses the emulation...it doesn't resume when you press it again.
Tried again and not working for me. I did as you suggested...mapped gamepad button 4 to mapping type "action" and mapped value to "pause-toggle". Then, before save/quit/restart, I tried it and it did not pause the emulation (i.e. still see the blinking cursor on the C64 screen). I have now tried this on 2 different computers (1 computer has a Logitech F310 gamepad and the other has a Logitech F510 gamepad). I even tried both modes the gamepad supports (XInput vs DirectInput).
I just noticed that work is being done to support this now! I tried snapshot build r45992 using the GTK3 version and I was able to map a gamepad button action to "pause-toggle" and saved it using the "Save defaults" button in the x64sc GUI. Then, I quit and reloaded x64sc and confirmed it had my mapping still and it did. But when I pressed the gamepad button I mapped to "pause-toggle" it did not pause the emulator. Is this still a work-in-progress because I saw several places in the GUI that said...
