Setting custom keys (quicksave/quickload) in WinUAELoader
« on: March 04, 2012, 09:32:51 am »
On my last cab I had WinUAE + WinUAELoader working perfectly, integrated with Maximus Arcade. I had set keyboard keys for quicksave/quickload and everything else, which worked perfectly.

Now, on my new cab I am trying to do the same, but I just can't figure it out.

I am using the following custom lines in my WHDLoad.UAE file (the config file WinUAELoader uses for WHDLoad games);

Code: [Select]
input.config=1
input.1.keyboard.0.button.63=SPC_STATESAVE.0
input.1.keyboard.0.button.65=SPC_STATERESTORE.0

This is basically copied and pasted from my last cab's setup (where it worked perfectly).

Basically, what I want is to map the keyboard's (iPac's) F5 and F8 keys to quick save and quick load within the emulation, but nothing happens when I load up a game and hit the buttons for F5 or F8.

What I think is the problem is that, in WinUAELoader I have ticked to enable "Keyboard Config A" and that might overwrite the custom config in WHDLoad.UAE?

Any hints of what I can do to get this working would be great. Thanks in advance! ;)
