Button Mapping/hotkeys

Post by Bloodybone » Wed Nov 03, 2021 12:18 am

I'm using the 4 player arpicade, problem im having is on my mame-078 games "nba jam, rampage, nba jam t", my retropad A & B buttons seam to be bound together, i have gone into the button mapping and removed anything that was mapped to either button, and i went into the "mapping for this game" and and removed anything bound to either button there.

i have also rename hotkeys file to hotkeysno, so that wont be used.

what am i missing & it seams to be only my 078 games, my 106 games are not having the problem.

After doing all that, when i go to program player 2 buttons, it maps A & B to same button like im mapping both.

is there more hotkeys somewhere for 078 that im not seeing?

thank you for the help

Possibly a RetroArch config getting in the way? It's worth checking the RetroArch menu (press f1 or start+b6 hotkey to open) quick menu control section to make sure both buttons arn't bound to the same input there.

The MAME config (for 078) only sets inputs that RA sends via its input system so if the issue is earlier in the chain MAME won't be able to fix it.

Are you on ARpiCADE 3.X.1? I should take a look as that seems odd.

My buttons are all messed up as well. SO when I try to hit 1 player after adding a credit it doesnt work. My buttons always seem to take me into the config mode so I keep messing something up where do I go to configure these buttons?
