DGEN and NES Configuration
  • monkerz
    I was able to edit the SNES config file snes9x.cfg and it worked fine. I have two questions:

    1 - I am unable to figure out what file to edit for DGEN to get my keyboard mapped. From what I can find, I need to edit dgenrc.5 but have come up short on figuring it out. Is that the file I need to edit to map my keyboard?

    2 - NES emulator : What file to do I edit to map my keyboard? I don't even see the folder :-)

    3 - Donate button? I'm not rich, but would love to buy Shea a Beer. Do you have a donate button?

    Any help would be awesome.

    1- you need to edit the file /home/pi/.dgen/dgenrc
    the dgenrc.5 file is kind of a tutorial. This is what my dgenrc file looks like 
    # DGen/SDL v1.32

    2- nes emulator file is /home/pi/.advance/advmess.rc
    3 - no donate button right now. Help us out by providing feedback and helping others out on the forums :D
  • monkerz
    My issue was that directory does not showup in filezilla. I will look over your config. Thanks. It should all make sense now.

    Well when you get a button, I would love to donate a beer...
  • mholgatemmholgatem
    that is because it is a hidden file. in order to see hidden files in file zilla, you need to click on 'server' (at the top menu bar), then select 'force showing hidden files'

    Where can I find the GBA mapping file?
  • mholgatemmholgatem
    I haven't tried it, but my guess would be 
    cd /home/pi/pimame/emulators/Gearboy/platforms/raspberrypi/Gearboy
    sudo nano main.cpp

    make your edits, save and exit then type:
    make
