Gamex - Can't disable escape to exit.

[rog69]

Hi,

I have Gamex running in my new mame cab, the controls are wired though an Ipac and I have the standard hold 1p and press 2p to send an escape key press to exit a game.

The problem is that this combination also quits out of Gamex if I press a second time by accident.

I have disabled the escape to exit option in the setup wizard and cleared out all of the key press fields but I can still exit Gamex by using the above button combo or the escape key on the keyboard.

Any ideas on what I am missing here?

Thanks.

Welcome to the forums.

Our normal standard response here is to please upload copies of the gameex log file and gameex.ini file.

As far as I am aware this is no longer a problem in GameEx if you disable Escape. I guess I could have got it wrong though.

Thanks Tom.

Please see attached for the requested files.

I have just been back and double checked my settings for global exit and escape key exit is definitely disabled, but I am still able to quit back to desktop when I hit escape.

Is my understanding of the setting correct? it is Mame that I want to have escape mapped to quit from but I don't want any key mapped to quit gamex.

Hi Rog, I think there is another setting in the Setup Wizard for the "GameEx" escape key exit. It may be under Enable/Disable Features. I often use that setting with my personal GameEx use. It sounds like you are referring to the wrong settings. They are just for emulators. Anyway, please try and find that other setting and let me know.

Cheers.
