Thanks for the tips, I forgot about the shift key option, that makes a lot of sense. |

That sounds like a good suggestion, but if you keep the admin buttons "hidden" (not easily accessible), what about, say, if you have a party and want users to be able to, at a minimum, escape from games, pause them, change game lists and game types (I use Emulaxian.)? If you don't have those admin buttons accessible, won't you always have to be coming in and helping guests exit games, choose games, pause games, restart games, etc.? |

I've heard people mention the usage of a shift button. What exactly is the purpose of this shift button and how is it used? |

I'm curious how people implement a shift button. This thread has got me thinking of ways I might want to use it. I was planning on exit and pause being my only admin buttons. But then I was thinking if I added a shift button, I might use it to make the exit and pause double as mouse buttons. |

I use VolumeTray (http://glorysoft.omsk.ru/volumetray.html) for handling volume controls and map Pause/Joy1-up to volume up and Pause/Joy1-down to down. This way you only need one control button. --- End quote --- Sounds like great s/w so I downloaded it to try it out. What keystrokes are you using for each hot-key? For now, I'm using ctrl-alt-joyup and ctrl-alt-joydown, but you know that'll get me into trouble during gameplay given that ctrl and alt are p1 button 1 and 2 by default. I don't want unmodified keys for a hotkey because it'll be inconvenient when using the keyboard. -pmc |
