Title: help with button layout on newer pc games with i pac and 6 button sf layout
Post by: bigster on May 30, 2014, 09:23:57 am

I need some help with the newer PC games on an ipac...ie mkke, sf4, injustice, sf x tekken.  My issue is that I have an ipac controlled 2 player setup with 6 buttons per player streetfighter layout with a side pinball button and a start button.  I am running into issues w menu buttons in these games as well as getting 2 players to work.  Also i know sf x tekken does not need 80 buttons so I need help making games work with 6 or 7 butrons

Last night I tried v joy but that was not showing up in mkke I know there is the Xbox.INI or something like that to emulate the Xbox controllers.  Is this the wy to go? I can't find a guide for these.  Anyone with a 6 button street fighter layout care to help me with the newer PC games.  Would ideally like to play all games 2 player with the joy/buttons controlling the menus. 


PS joys are 8 way happs

Answers can be found in the software subforum here on byoac.

This stickied thread contains solutions for every game you mentioned except Injustice.

Injustice is evil.

The only workable solution is Headkaze's vjoy (not to be confused with the rip-off of it also called vjoy)
This game made me break down and switch to hacked xbox360 fightpads.
It's nice to install a Steam game and have the controls work on the default settings without having to find any workarounds.

The one catch is that you need to have a button hooked up to every input on the fightpad because some of these games won't let you exit the control mapping menu unless you've mapped everything, even the things that aren't necessary.  You can get away with having a button inside the CP, as it's only needed to get past the mapping screen.

Thanks badmouth.  I checked that post but did not search the whole thing.  I will try tonight.  Glad I am not the only one with injustice problems
