6 buttons per player?? player 2?

Pages: << < (3/5) > >>

All capcom fighters require 6 buttons for each player.


However,  BY default, they decided to assign only 4 of the player 2 buttons.  You can go into MAME options (click tab), edit inputs for All Games, not just "This Game", and set the inputs for player 2 button 5 and 6 to whatever you want.

You do need 6 buttons for Street Fighter II & 3, Marvel Super Heroes, Marvel Vs Capcom, etc. for each player.

They weren't set in MAME by default, probably because MAME emulates THOUSANDS of arcade games, and the majority of them don't need 6 buttons.

on mame it says 5,6 are n/a    so does street fighter only use 4 buttons?

Seriously, you never played any 6-button games in the arcades? Not even Street Fighter? Sounds like you still have a lot to learn about the number of games out there, and the ins and outs of MAME.

You have to get it out of your head that games like SFII are designed with MAME in mind or MAME is designed specifically for games like SFII. Neither is true.

Just accept this:
SFII (and others like it) uses six buttons per player.
MAME is not configured by default for SFII controls.
Therefor, you will need to configure MAME to accomodate SFII or any other game that uses more than four buttons per player.

And please... go to your local arcade. If you can't afford to play  ::) then take a look at the actual machines and how they're constructed.
