Please help. Hotkeys driving me insane
« on: May 03, 2009, 06:52:21 pm »
OK. I've searched for over an hour online. Hear, the WIKI, mala guides etc... I have it set up exactly like the guides tell me, but am unable to set the ESC key to send Alt-F4. I've tried on 3 different emus (model 2, fusion, and fceux.) I'm running Vista 32bit and Mala 1.05; I've got it set to post, source esc, destination F4 and ALT checked. When I hit esc, it does nothing (except in fceux it shows/hides toolbar.) Can somebody help before I shoot myself?
Thanks.

What version of fusion are you using? I'm using 3.61, and have tried what you've shown but still nothing. I have figured out the fceux, but model2 and fusion are still driving me nuts.
Thanks for the help.

What version of Windows are you using? Windows 98 or something higher.  I think win98 requires the keyhook.dll for mala to use hotkeys correctly.

You also have the option to use closemul.  You don't have to configure anything as it uses ESC to exit right out of the box.  You can set closemul as your emulator and then add the fusion executable to the command line (or add it to closemul.ini).

Well I must say THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! I used closemul and after some tinkering, it finally works.
