Title: Zinc controller input problem(fix)
Post by: sanousuke on January 11, 2005, 02:33:44 am

I searched the boards here and on zincs site and seen alot of people with this problem(including me).

Problem:
The controls you setup with zincfe only work with some of the games. The problem is with controller.znc.

Fix:
This worked for me and now my controls work perfect for all games.

1. configure your controls with zincfe (http://www.aldostools.com/frontends.html) the way you usually would.

2. Replace your controller.znc file with the controller.znc that comes with zincgui (http://dafreak.ngemu.com/).

I think your controls will work after that, did for me.

this is false.....

controller.znc is the actual controller plugin.....  It's the configuration of said plugin that is at fault.  (Btw I'm assuming that everyone is using winterblast's plugin anyway... my point is you don't have to use aldo's fe to get it nor is aldo's any different than anyone elses) 

You need to look at your controller.cfg (the configuration file)  and make sure that it's setup right.

With that being said.... neither of the zinc fe's seem to be configuring them properly yet, so sit tight.

Thanks Howard.  It did seem kind of silly to install a FE that I wouldn't need.

Does anyone have a working controller.cfg file that works with the MAME keys and correctly with the Namco System 11 games they could post and let me copy and try out?
