Glad you got your tab keep working again...
I too am having mixed results with AOS shift functions working in DOS. I am using a Hagstrom KE72T so you can rule out the IPAC as the culprit.
Of the 6 possible shift functions, I currently have 4 working. At one time I believe I had 5 working. It seems like certain keys work and certain ones don't. For example, I never have been able to get Player2 button 1 programmed to work with anything. But, Player 2 button 3 worked programmed as ESC but not F11. It is a matter of trial and error for me so I am guessing it is an AOS problem but am not sure. I do use Player1+2=Esc.
:working? I'm trying to do something simple like remap the "throttle FPS" default shift function to "coin 2".
I believe remapping and shift functions are two different animals...I was referring to the shift functions which allow for using the P1+P2 buttons 1-3 as second functions that are enabled when pressing the "shift key" which can either be P1 Start or P2 start...
: BTW...I'm running pure DOS, AOS 2.36, MAME .37b4. The I-Pac has the "auto" jumper installed.
I'm running win98se DOS (boot gui=0), AOS 2.36 and MAME .36.
