Title: Controls.dat - Can we use it in MAMEUI? How?
Post by: ebo0763 on September 13, 2011, 08:07:15 pm

Does Controls.dat shows changes the name of the buttons in the mameui menu (during gameplay)? Like "jump" instead of "Button 1"?

If so, how to implemented it in mameui?

Use CPWizard, that will show a detailed image of all the button placements.

Agree.

CPWizard is a very useful tool.  My only wish is that it would be able to be displayed on a second monitor.  Even still,  it is in the top two most usefull utilities!

First, how do we install this? And what would be the other utility?
