So I've made some progress on my Ms pacman with the 19in g07 I went and got a high voltage probe and tested the flyback.  No good. So i swapped back in the original flyback. I now have neck glow and flyback buzz. But I still don't have a picture! Monitor been recapped brand new neck board. I replaced the 902 fuse. What's next? Should I replace the the hot's

Hello, I understand you can use multiple inputs and assign them in Wheel2XInput. I see an example for overriding one GUID with another for say a specific button but here's what I'm trying to accomplish...

I have a TMX racing wheel and the TH8S shifter. I want to map the shifter to currently mapped dpad and paddles on the wheel in the json, not override it, but have both inputs working. How would I code that into the json? I have used the trace app to pull the GUID and button numbers, so just need to know how to inject that info into the json.

Thanks!

I think the code for mapping multiple GUIDs to a single button in the earlier reply might be wrong. I couldn't get it to work.

I tried a mixture of that and Copilot and came up with the following which did the trick for me.

Same Gear shifter as yours,  but my wheel is the TS-PC Racer. Pasted the full json so you can see it in context, but at the end of the 'buttons' section I've mapped A,B,X,Y to 0,1,2,3 on my shifter (gear changes in Daytona!). The plus side is the same buttons still work on my wheel.

Program is especially useful for emulating systems like Dreamcast, where the controller has limited buttons so you need to multitask. Crazy Taxi for example uses A and B to navigate menus but are then gear shifts in game - so I wanted wheel shifting to function while also retaining the face buttons for navigation:

Great little program by the way Nugarp. Once I've got my head around it looks like it can replace x360ce in a lot of similar user cases.
 

I appreciate all your help, but I am definitely missing something, and I know once its figured out Im going to punch myself, I went ahead and configured the controls in dkwolf and its not reading in DKC at all....I can still only use the dpad to move left, right and crouch, heres my screenshot of dkwolf settings, I hate I cant get this figure out

Thanks again
Steve

Thanks.   


Scott

Did you get your stuff?

Nice

nothing wrong with that.  it is better than what I started out with.  i did something similar with my x-arcade for a while and then decided to step it up later.

Try running the command prompt with administrator privileges.

OK thanks I will give that a try when I get time.

Tried with admin privileges and it created the .txt log in a different folder but it was still blank, I can see the cmd prompt running, but it's just not generating/writing the log file properly.

OK, for some reason this is the only thing I cant figure out, I have this in my setting.txt, but if I change anything or try and add a new button it doesnt take, and as of right, only the dpad will work, going left and right, and crouching... none of the buttons work.....Do I need to make the changes in dkwolf.exe under player1 controls also?   Thx

Yes,  you will need to define controls in DKwolf/MAME also.  The controls defined in DKAFE settings.txt apply only to the frontend. 

As this thread has now turned 18. We've seen a lot over these 18 years and it's been a wild ride watching them grow and develop. It's probably time to let them live on their own and watch to see as life happens. To those that supported us along the way, I'll just say it's been quite a ride and it's been fun sharing it with you.
