All the MAME specific commands can be programmed into multiple button presses using the MAME configuration screen (TAB). For example, you can program P1 start + P1 button 1 set to bring up the configuration screen. You can program multiple combinations for each command (I still have TAB set to this command as well).
: hi guys,
: using the visio stencils to lay out yet another new CP diagram for myself (this time for my horizontal double dragon cab, i decided it's better to mame than to just have 8 games with a multijamma) I noticed the 8-button cluster seems to be for mame-specific buttons:
: 1p (1)
: 2p (2)
: coin (5)
: exit (esc)
: enter
: config menu (tab)
: screen menu (~)
: pause (p)
: but I don't know if that's all that mame needs... what about the OK and occasional F2 you have to hit? would it be seldom enough that i could go ahead and do that from the keyboard?
: thanks much
