advmame keyboard led scripts? really confused...

[Frostillicus]

I'm trying to configure Advmame to use the keyboard led's and it says it needs special scripting in advmame.rc to work correctly.

I've read, read, and read some more all the documentation for advmame and have it almost all configured except for the keyboard led's.  And i'm the first to admit I have a serious lack of programming ability....

Has anyone gotten their keyboard led's to work in advmame like they do in regular mame?  Could you please share with me the scripting text or explaination on how you got it to work?  The examples they give just confuse me

Thanks!

frosty I can tell ya this much.... if your trying to run advmame in 2000 or xp then the leds wont work.  The api call they used is now outdated (unless they recently changed it) and won't work on a nt-based system.

OH CRAP.  That stinks.  I spent like 2 days trying to get it set up as much as possible before I order my D9200.  And I have XP Pro cause it was cheap from a student friend.  Thanks for the info, anyway. Guess it's back to game launcher...or your new FE when it arrives on the scene

Hehe my fe will support leds.  

As a matter of fact I setup the code this morning, that's how I could answer your question so quickly.
