Look at list thread for about ctrlr files and neogeo. 

In your case, you'd need the default input mappings for your standard inputs, and neogeo mappings with all the inputs different than your "default".

Hmm, I can't seem to get it to work.  Here's my config file:


--- Code: ---<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- This file is autogenerated; comments and unknown tags will be stripped -->
<mameconfig version="10">
    <system name="default" />
    <system name="neogeo">
<input>
<port type="P1_BUTTON1">
<newseq type="standard">NONE</newseq>
</port>

<port type="P1_BUTTON2">
<newseq type="standard">NONE</newseq>
</port>

<port type="P1_BUTTON3">
<newseq type="standard">NONE</newseq>
</port>
<port type="P1_BUTTON4">
<newseq type="standard">KEYCODE_LCONTROL</newseq>
</port>
<port type="P1_BUTTON5">
<newseq type="standard">KEYCODE_Z</newseq>
</port>
<port type="P1_BUTTON6">
<newseq type="standard">KEYCODE_X</newseq>
</port>
<port type="P1_BUTTON7">
<newseq type="standard">KEYCODE_LSHIFT</newseq>
</port>
<port type="P1_BUTTON8">
<newseq type="standard">NONE</newseq>
</port>
</input>
     </system>
</mameconfig>


--- End code ---

It works ok with normal games, but whenever I boot up a neo geo game now.  None of the buttons work anymore except for ones that I didn't remap.  Any ideas what I'm missing?

Thanks,
Jeff

Happy New Year to all.
jrmitch,
How did you get this to work? I have been trying for weeks without any luck. Please help. Thanks

Here is my IPAC2.cfg ctrlr file I use with a 7 button layout. Bottom row set for Neo Geo games.

In your mame.ini you will have to have


--- Code: ---ctrlr                     IPAC2
--- End code ---

Copy IPAC2.cfg into Mame's ctrlr folder
