[RESOLVED] Exiting Nestopia

[Chaos.Tiki]

It seems that, on my system, I cannot exit Nestopia with the esc key. This works with all other emulators and programs I have set up.

I tried scouring the forums for an answer but no luck.

You're using the global hook? I have my advance emu set to use either ALT X or CTRL X (can't remember which offhand) to exit. The shortcut is in the nestopia pull down menu. Pretty sure its ALT X though.

Amazing what a little Google action might find... only took me 5 seconds to find the answer (and you were correct, Adultery)!

Thanks. With a program this expansive, some of the smaller and simpler details get to be a bit tricky to find. I do appreciate all the help everyone is giving to this NOOB. I try to find my answers in older forums and in the tutorials section before I post a topic.

No worries! If it wasn't for teh noobz I'd be pretty bored.

Usually, the site for the emulator itself will hold most answers to get you going. Some of the emulator forums outside of GameEx are a better bet to get the emulator working outside of GameEx first. Once working on its own, the forums here are going to be your best bet.

I have applied the fix suggested and it works. But if I am correct, GameEx has the ability to make the esc key close emulators (like it does with ZSNES). If I run it (ZSNES) outside of GameEx, esc just opens the menu, if I run it inside GameEx, esc closes it and brings me to the menu. So would this be a bug in GameEx?

Doesn't the global hook use the Avanced Configuration? As in if you set it up and apply it to use ALT+X for that emulator, wouldn't GameEx send ALT+X on exit instead of ESC when you press the ESC key? Alternatively you can change the binding in Nestopia from ALT+X to ESC if it comes to that. You shouldn't need to though...

ESC is the button Nestopia uses to show the menu bar by default.
