Start1 + Start2 still performs ESC.. help

(1/3) > >>

rick6668:
I have an IPAC and reprogrammed the shift key to another button on my control panel (1SW8).

JustMichael:
Are you using ArcadeOS as your frontend?

rick6668:
Yes I am.  But Player1+Player2 in arcadeos doesn't do esc, because player 1 starts the game.  I also disabled this in arcadeos's config by commenting it out with a # but it still didn't work.

Ideas...?

Tiger-Heli:
Things to try:

With the I-Pac unplugged and a regular keyboard connected, does pressing 1 and then 2 cause MAME to exit?  If so, look at your MAME or Arcade OS settings.

If not, set some other shift functions on the I-PAC and see if these work?  If not, your I-PAC may not be accepting the programming or remembering the settings.  Is the MAME/ALT jumper set to ALT?

If this doesn't yield a solution, I recommend E-mailing Andy Warne.  He should be able to help.

rick6668:
Thanks for the tip.. Same thing with the keyboard, so I figured out it's an Arcadeos problem.

When I configured the shift keys in Arcadeos to start1+start2=esc to be no, it worked fine for that game I selected.

Once I go back to arcadeos, the config gets set back to yes.  I even tried to update the config manually via notepad and still no luck.

This is really starting to get to me.
