Atari 2600 z26.ini needed

[reko19]

Could someone post an example of a cabinet friendly z26.ini file? I downloaded one from J.Crouse site, wondering if this is the best way to go since not all games start the same way. Thank you.

I was referring to z26.ini that goes inside the z26 folder to remap the keys in the cracked version of z26.exe to make it more cabinet friendly. Anyone?

[Turnarcades]

You need to use the SDL key codes. I use this, but my buttons are totally remaped from MAME standard anyway;

Someone elses' config won't necessarily suit you, as your control panel may look completely different. I leave out all functionality for the numeric keypad, for example.

thank you very much, this helps a lot.  i was going to keep it consistent with mame assignment, guess this is just a matter of prefrences. I have two player 7-button per player setup.

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but I'm also curious about this and a person usually gets yelled at around here for not searching first...

So do I simply create a file in Notepad, name it z26.ini, and insert the keymaps exactly as its written above (except changing to fit my controls)? 

[xer0s]

Should I ask this in a different forum or create a new thread?  Just looking for some answers on this...

Thanks!
