Seeking opinions - admin buttons (NOT on control panel)

Pages: (1/2) > >>

Ginsu Victim:

I've got a small project box and eight of these small pushbuttons:


I'm looking to have two rows of four buttons in the box, and I'll keep it in the coin door. I'm trying to decide what eight MAME functions I'd like to have on there. I already have TAB on top of the cabinet, and currently use it shifted for F2 (service), but I'm looking to put service on the box. Also the options accessed via tilde ~.

These are running through one of my U360s, so it will be seen as gamepad buttons, not keyboard (though I could use joy2key if needed).

Any suggestions?

I just thought I'd see if there are functions I haven't thought of that are worth having on there.

Oh, you should have expected that!   ;)

Are you looking for suggestions like:  power, pause, vol +, vol - etc?   I wasn't sure when I read the post the first time.

leapinlew:

no admin buttons is the best answer to me.

To me, your question might as well be: "should I add 46 admin buttons or 47?". 0 is a good number.

The shifted buttons I use are:
quit game
exit front end
pause

but they are all hidden commands.
