Hey there!
Glad to see all you guys are still out there.
I FINALLY got my cab together (after like 2 years of chasing it around the garage while I did other things).
Here's the deal:
I'm running ArcadeOS and MAME 37b14 together with the infamous MegaTap PSX adapter with 2 PSX pads inside the CP.
I have been unable so far to figure out how to change the button mapping on the PSX pads (or in ArcadeOS) so that I can do the things that I want it to do from the CP, and so that it WON'T do the things I DON't want it to do.
For example: The player 1 and 2 start buttons are connected to what the DPadPro reports as buttons 9 on the PSX pads. Button 9 on PSX pad 1 is Player 1 start, 9 on PSX pad 2 is player 2 start. This is fine in MAME, but in ArcadeOS, the player 1 start button tells it to open the menu same as Keyboard #1 and player 2 start button does nothing.
Similarly, the fire button on the CP acts as a fire button in MAME, but in AOS it tells it to start a random game. This gets EXTREEEEEMELY annoying when the kids are playing a game and suddenly all the games disappear because they changes which custom list is displayed or some such.
I did some searching, but was unable to find any kind of decent explanation of how to change it either in the ArcadeOS.cfg or anywhere else. How can I go about changing the mapping in AOS so that I can have the CP buttons do what I want them to in AOS? Or do I need to rewire the buttons in the CP so that they make sense to AOS?
Thanks a bunch, and pics are coming, as soon as the digicam battery charges.
