OK I am beating my head against the desk here. I have a J-PAC JAMMA converter that is basically a keyboard. It converts the arcade controls to keyboard key strokes. Works great on MAME4ALL. Not so great in FCEUX.
I know I need to remap the keys in the fceux.cfg file. I've done that. But when i copy the file back to the /.fceux directory and try to start FCEUX it gives me a "segmentation fault" and goes back to the ROM select screen. I've made sure the file permissions are set to 775 like I found in another thread. FCEUX sees my contols as a keyboard so that is the section of the cfg file I have edited. The direction arrows are correct by default, I just need to remap start, select, A, B and once I'm done with that I'll start to think about player two's controls.
As near as I can tell the CFG file reads the keystrokes as ASCII numbers.
Any ideas out there?
And If I get this sorted out I'll write up a How-To for it, because this is frustrating!
Got another question. That works, but some of the keys do things like start and stop movie recording and select save states originally. Now that I have my keys mapped correctly they do both things. Like when I hit the A button on controller 2 it brings up the save state dialog. Any ideas how to disable things like that? I don;t care to save movies or load save states.
