MAME CTRLR file for X-Arcade and XBOX 360 Pads
squeak450:
can you explain exactly what you did. Because i'm trying to get my x360 controllers working in MAME 182 but i can't get it. I placed the CFG file in the mame CTRL folder and then went into the mam.ini and changed the configure inputs and after doing so MAME stops booting up. i change the imputs back to normal and MAME boots back up but i can still only use my keyboard. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Hi squeak450,
The user YM2612 has an updated config file for version 0.173, which is the one I'm using also for 0.182. In reply #22 the file is attached.
Remember to edit your mame.ini and set for the ctrlr entry the same as the config file name without extension.

HI goAMinD
This is ecaxtly what i did. i placed the the file into the controller folder , turned it from a notepad to a CFG file, copy and pasted the controller inpmuts and replaced everything that was under it. Is that what i'm doing wrong? should i just be adding to the configure impute and not replacing them?

If you downloaded the 0.173 cfg file the file name is XARCADE_XBox360x4_0_173.cfg
In this file I changed nothing.
If you have more .cfg files in this folder you could move them to another temp folder, so only XARCADE_XBox360x4_0_173.cfg is in the cfg folder. Just to be sure no other is used.
In mame.ini in your mame root folder you have to put this under the section CORE INPUT OPTIONS: XARCADE_XBox360x4_0_173 (with no extension .cfg)
When you lauch the emulator go to the Configure options menu and choose Device Mapping. In here you set ALL entries to Joystick. Then it should work. Restart the emulator

Then your 2 options in the mame.ini should look like this:
--- Code: ---#
# CORE INPUT OPTIONS

coin_lockout 1
ctrlr XARCADE_XBox360x4_0_173
