Check your E-mail then.

Which one.  I didn't get anything.  Don't use the cfl.rr one anymore, use the mikeq@unappliedbraincells.com.

A list of what critiria to use for setting colors would be good.  I suspect this might be an area where controls.dat would be useful.  Any button labeled "fire" would be color X and so on.

I just resent it, but I used the second E-mail both times.

1. Contextual lighting
2. Positional lighting
3. Per Game custom lighting.

And from what people tell me #3 would be the popular reason.  People are constantly asking me to put button color info into controls.dat.  Some games had specific colors for buttons and in game play used those colors.  However, I think this only covers about 5-10% of what controls.dat supports.

mahuti:
That's exactly what "romname.lwa files can support.

Currently SetLedWiz supports both 1 & 3 and will support 2. I haven't been able to think up any other realistic automated regular processes... unless it's something like...  you ALWAYS want an input listed in Controls.dat labeled "thrust" to be red. So #4 case might be controls.dat keyword matching, but that's pretty specialized, and could be handled by romname.lwa or drivername.lwa (which might be useful for NeoGeo) Driver level stuff support for SetLedWiz is also coming... that's kind of a case 5.

SirPoonga:
I was wondering, would it be wise to put a forum on your website?

Otherwise saint might create a support forum here.
