Connect a keyboard to your IPACS and redifine your game pad keys to ones that dont bring up menus etc... So if button 3 is F and thats bringing up the file menu. Make the key you have assigned to button 3 H or something.

Then use autohotkey to map F::H so when you press button 3 it sends H which controls the game and not F that brings up the menu.

Save the script and make an EXE of it (compile) Then lauch that program in the launch before section of the emu. Then in lauch after kill the AHK process so it doesnt break other emus.

No here really. But if you tell me what your keys are I can make one up real quick.

I need your directionals and buttons for both players.

Also you said you have a 3 button cab? That will make MOST games un playable. Unless I understood you incorrectly.

There is a program called CHARPROBE that will tell you what keys your pressing.

Here are you new Keys

Button 1 = B

Button 2 = Z

Button 3 = M

So map the keys in NULLDC

cab butt 1 = control key

cab butt 2 = alt key

cab butt 3 = spacebar

To the above

Run this program and see if it works.
