| Stupid Question - Admin Buttons |
| (1/1) |
| ZippySLC:
Okay, I have a really stupid question. I added four admin buttons on the front of my control panel for Mame functions such as Exit, Service Mode, etc. I have them wired to the "extra" buttons on my IPAC (1P button 7 & 8, 2P button 7 & 8). Can I change MAME to use those keystrokes to escape/pause/service/etc. or should I reprogram the IPAC to send whatever keystroke Mame wants. I would imagine that it's easier to change Mame than reprogram the IPAC. Also, these were the buttons I was thinking: Service Mode Menu Pause Exit (ESC) Anyone have any better ideas? |

If other peple will be using the machine I would recommend removing any buttons they could use to change it or mess it up. Buttons like "Enter", "Esc", "Pause" are safe. Others would scare me. |

Change mame, use ctrlr files too, they will work from one version of mame to the next :) Also you can use the ipac's shift function to do this. I have just quit and pause on my control panel. Pause is my shift buttons. I use player 2 buttons 1 and 2 to load and save. |
