Can I create a Button Configuration for a BIOS?
simplygriff:
Wow thanks for the reply. I know that took a lot of typing. Thanks!
So to change this
631
245
to
123
456
I should change this
P1_BUTTON1 "KEYCODE_Z | MOUSECODE_1_BUTTON1"
P1_BUTTON2 "KEYCODE_X | MOUSECODE_1_BUTTON2"
etc.
to this
P1_BUTTON1 "JOYCODE_6"
P1_BUTTON2 "JOYCODE_3"
etc.
This is using Mame's built in Joystick support. Is this right? Thanks so much for your help.

Close, you are on the right track. the ini file's joycode actually goes like this (fromt he std.ini file
P1_JOYSTICKRIGHT_UP "KEYCODE_I | JOYCODE_1_BUTTON2"
P1_JOYSTICKRIGHT_DOWN "KEYCODE_K | JOYCODE_1_BUTTON3"
P1_JOYSTICKRIGHT_LEFT "KEYCODE_J | JOYCODE_1_BUTTON1"
P1_JOYSTICKRIGHT_RIGHT "KEYCODE_L | JOYCODE_1_BUTTON4"
P2_BUTTON1 "KEYCODE_A | JOYCODE_2_BUTTON1"
P2_BUTTON2 "KEYCODE_S | JOYCODE_2_BUTTON2"
P2_BUTTON3 "KEYCODE_Q | JOYCODE_2_BUTTON3"
P2_BUTTON4 "KEYCODE_W | JOYCODE_2_BUTTON4"
You have designate which joystick you have connected to your computer :)
Oh yeah, and what HC said. Though in general the driver is the same name as the bios.
