*shrug* Are you sure they'd not be intersted in the 6 button one? Does everyone like their SFII punch and kick buttons juxtaposed? (yes I know they can be remapped... but for every 6 button game, bah!)

I didn't say the devs were against the idea. I just said the dude that helped me told me not to submit it. however, I don't think Nicola is really into putting anything into mame that helps out BYOAC. Even though ctrlr is in there. I just get that feeling.
--- Quote ---It's not the complexity of the code change/compiling that would bother me. It's needing for each new version of mame (or doing it for multiple mames if I need to use an older mame for a specific game/group of games) to do a recompile instead of just downloading the stock binary.

Happens alot. I have to recompile each new mame to add:
Analog mame
pong
These hacks I made
test driver, other unsupported games
asteroids sound fix (though I hear the rumor is it will be fixedin next version)
Get rid of the "press any key" for a bad rom so FEs that hide the cmd prompt works better

Lilwolf:
I'm not sure how much smarts you have put in, but it sounds like you have a good start going if you can handle 4way joysticks also.
But the one thing added in the latest version of jfront was that you setup all your ini files (or cfg files) is that I could get them from different locations per control panel. So you could have a different special setup for all 4way games for each control panel.
I haven't had time to look at yoru specific implimentation but it sounds great!
SirPoonga:
Yeah, you could do that with mame so to speak. Just use a different ctrlr directory for each controller:)
