How to get back into the cinfig menu
« on: February 12, 2012, 01:03:11 am »
Not sure what happened but im not able to get into a config screen by pressing my tab button while im inside of a MAME game and the button i assigned to on my cab. I feel like MAME didnt save my settings and when i booted back up they were gone leaving me not able to configure any controls, is there a panic button to get into the config screen

In your Mame folder, delete your mame.ini file.

You could have just modified the default config file so that it had tab back in the right place (the configs are text files after all), but that way works too.
