Fighter games remapping

For a ctrlr ini file make a button6.ini file and map the controls as needed. Any 6 button game will be mapped that way (unless a specific game ini file is present, more specific ini files take priority).

Holy crap that's cool. I'll probably have an easier time doing this then configuring everything I DON'T want remapped with game-specific ini file (like Howard said).

As an aside, how come MAME says Mortal Kombat and Mortal Kombat II each have 6 buttons when every MK box I've seen has only 5? Where does the 6th come in? This will screw with the $input_buttons.ini hack..

Only MK3 and 4 had 6 buttons....prob just an error.

Not really.... there are hundreds of 6 button games that aren't fighters. There are only a couple of dozen capcom system games that aren't fighters. :)
Also I'm not sure how mortal kombat got into this discussion but it's a midway fighter and thus needs a game specific ctrlr file due to the odd x-shaped layout.

Not really. MK convertion kits were designed to take over SF2 cabs, which of course had six buttons. There's a discussion with a lot more info about this somewhere (can't find it), but basically mame is correct in having the sixth button IIRC.
