I really enjoyed playing Crystal Castle in the arcade, but with a joystick and the one button per direction the game is useless. |

This is my cfg looks like: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!-- This file is autogenerated; comments and unknown tags will be stripped --> <mameconfig version="10"> <system name="qbert"> <input> <port type="P1_JOYSTICK_RIGHT" mask="1" index="42" defvalue="0"> <newseq type="standard"> KEYCODE_6_PAD KEYCODE_2_PAD </newseq> </port> <port type="P1_JOYSTICK_LEFT" mask="2" index="43" defvalue="0"> <newseq type="standard"> KEYCODE_8_PAD KEYCODE_4_PAD </newseq> </port> <port type="P1_JOYSTICK_UP" mask="4" index="44" defvalue="0"> <newseq type="standard"> KEYCODE_8_PAD KEYCODE_6_PAD </newseq> </port> <port type="P1_JOYSTICK_DOWN" mask="8" index="45" defvalue="0"> <newseq type="standard"> KEYCODE_2_PAD KEYCODE_4_PAD </newseq> </port> </input> <mixer> <volume_multiplier final="256" final_max="2560" mixer="256" mixer_max="2560" /> </mixer> </system> </mameconfig> Hope this helps. |

Now I am not a huge Q*Bert fan but when the mood strikes this is what I do... and yes I know it is not particularly accurate I map 4 buttons to the four directions I have a standard street fighter 2 layout OOO OOO so I map 2 buttons on each row like so XXO XXO and VIOLA! I can play just sucks a little with buttons... Hope this helps a little... |

I'm sorry, everyone's wrong. The proper answer is to find the schematics to the original Q-bert cabinet, build the cabinet with all NOS control and artwork, then connect it to a computer running Q-bert on mame. (just kidding, use a remapped U360 :) ) |

This is something I've been thinking about. For Congo Bongo and Q-bert, is it possible to mount a 4 way diagonally to get proper functionality too? It's something I've been planning on implementing on my 4 way panel if it'll work. |
