| Admin Esc Button - Where do you put yours? |
| << < (8/9) > >> |

When you say ESC, do you mean escaping the game back to the frontend, or escaping the frontend back to Windows? To escape the game back to the frontend, I press my P1 & P2 buttons simultaniously. To pause, I press the "Jump" and P2 simultaniously. To exit the frontend and get back to Windows, I press a hidden button. It's on a piece of angled aluminum behind the coin door, just like my Pac-Man machine is. I have two buttons there. One to exit the frontend and one to power up/down the computer. |

I use mame32. When you change the button mapping for the "esc" function it will ask you to press the new button you want to use. Press the combination of buttons you want to use at the same time, therefore to escape the game you are required to press those same buttons at the same time. --- Quote from: urbecrisch on April 02, 2008, 11:15:54 pm --- --- Quote from: boodroe on April 02, 2008, 09:56:23 pm ---I use a combination of buttons that are already on the control panel for the admin escape to provide less clutter on the panel. To escape from a game on mine the player must press, 1st player, 2nd player, and coin at the same time to esc. --- End quote --- Boodroe, what program or FE do you use that you can program the sequence? --- End quote --- |

I have v.106 and can't seem to find the option to change the Esc mapping. Or do you mean you're changing the sequence in the FE? |

I am pretty sure all mame32 versions will do this. Be sure not to confuse mame32 with mame. Mame32 is a common windows friendly version of mame. I cant remember what version I have, my machine is currently at my brother's. |

I don't have separate "admin" buttons per say. P1 + P2 is escape for me, plus i have the following: P1+up = tab P1+down = pause P1+left = escape P1+right = enter P1 + button1 = f1 P1 + button2 = f2 P1 + button3 = f3 |
