Thanks!!! that worked perfectly!!! I was able to map the mouse + P2 buttons to send the L key. I also launched the exe compiled version from within gameex in the tweak menu item. This allowed me to complete the bezel diagram (attached i hope) that I have been working on. Still needs a few tweaks but this will help!!! thanks again tim

thanks. didn't realize the options/funtionality for the game wizard are different than the advance config. However, the wizard won't let me hit the l or r mouse buttons. It does recognise all other keys on the x-arcade, but they are used in the game. will keep trying on this as this is the last that is holding up my CP instruction panel.

Ok, Still having problems with this. I have changed the setting to 1, and also tried 5 for the values. According to the virtual key charts, these should map to the left mouse button. I removed the mouse buttons from the mame games in the tab menu as well. however, I still can not get the CP panel to view. Does gameEx support only the keys listed in the html file, or any virtual key code? anyone? thx tim

Why don't you get a vga cable splitter. I have used this to do a quick and dirty job with seemely good results. tim

Im trying to map a new code to the in game panel viewer. I changed in settings to the VK code = 33 Im using the X-arcade CP and holding the Left-Shift button + start1 = ! Looking at ascii tables !=33 dec however, this doesn't work. If I change it back to 76 decimal, then I can press L on a keyboard and it works, but I have no L equivalent on the x-arcade. I don't want to create a custom programing for the x-arcade, as just want to use default assignments. Am I missing something here? BTW, pressing ! on the keyboard doesn't work either thanks tim

Ok, Couldn't figure this out, So i upgrade to Win2k. Seems to work ok there.....

I have been working with this awhile and searched many posts. I have downloaded the latest MAME and GAMEEX programs. Im using windows 98 Se on several old PC's that I would like to make into game pc's. I have almost all working except the attract mode. I get many MSDOS command windows that can't close, eventually fills the memory and stalls the PC. I didn't see this when I tested on XP. Is there special settings or combo of settings I need? Also, looking for a way to disply the CP controls on the main game screen. thanks tim
