helpman Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Hi there!I just finished building my own arcade fun center :D I'm using an arcade-2-usb controller, and although every other emulator works like a charm, I'm getting problems mapping the buttons for vpinball...The controller creates 2 different joysticks, and I can't find how to map the keys Can anybody help me with that?The keys I need to be mapped:Left flipper joystick 2, button 7Left bump joystick 2 button 8Right flipper joystick 1 button 7Right bump joystick 1 button 8Plunger joystick 1 button 10Center Bump joystick 2 button 11Coin joystick 2 button 101 player/start joystick 2 button 9(this is my arcade if you're curious )
celly Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Hey helpman. Welcome to the forum and nice rig. Just wondering what kind of keyboard encoder you're using and also if you have given XPadder a try? XPadder will let you map keys to whatever you like and use those, within the emulator.
helpman Posted April 30, 2013 Author Posted April 30, 2013 Hi there! I already tried xpadder and it's working great I don't know exactly what controller I'm using, just bought a pack from ebay It's just small PCB with one exit to usb and pin connectors.It supports 2 joysticks, 1 player with 12 buttons, and player 2 with 10.Windows recognises it as two "Xin-Mo dual Arcade". one with 10 buttons and the other one with 12.Works great, and it's cheaper than an jpac or whatever (about 22-23 euros)I would like to set the exit combo to both 1P/2P buttons but guess what? They are on different joysticks so I can't set them in gameex because it just recognises the button number, not which joystick is each :(
rockyrocket Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Maybe worth updating visual pinball if you have not?.I think gamepads were supported natively from 9.13 and as of may 2013 vp9.15 is current, worth a try.Not sure about the exit combo though, maybe AHK?.
helpman Posted May 3, 2013 Author Posted May 3, 2013 Hi there again I managed to use xpadder without problems.On newest vpinball I can set "buttons", but not for 2 different joysticks, just one, so I can't use it either. Plus it's not backwards compatible, and most of the tables I have wouldn't work Anyway, I'm planning on checking the tables I use the most, then get only those ones (now I have a huge pack and never played most of them) and change my pinball to the newest one with the newest tables
