Advanced Config for emulators

[Tempest]

I'm trying to set up my Joy1 button 1 as my escape button for emulators. I am using a U360, and it is seen as a gamepad. My buttons are numbered 0-7. I copied the "[Mapping Off] Exit (ESC)" config, and made the changes highlighted below. Since Gameex numbers the buttons 1-12, I tried pressing buttons 0,1, and 2 but no Joy (pun intended). I also tried many other things too numerous to mention. What's the scoop?

 

# This is an advanced emulator configuration file. It does things such as allow keyboard only emulators to be operated by a gamepad, wait for additional processes to exit and map keys. If this file is used it overrides the MAPKeys setting for the emulator.

[GENERAL]

# Enabled. Use this.

 Enabled=True

#Make MCE Back button and X-ARCADE Escape and SlikStik Escape to close emulator process

 MapBack=True

#Make Escape key close emulator process

 MapEscape=True

#When exiting an emulator via the above mappings, you can specify keys in the send keys format to send instead of having GameEx close the process to cleanly exit the emulator. Such as the Q Key or ALT F4 which is %{F4}

 KeysToSendOnExit={ESC}

#Wait for keys to be processed by the emulator

EmuWaitForKeys=True

#Additional processes to wait to exit or close on exit. Dont include the .exe. Leave blank not to use.

 Process2=
 Process3=
 Process4=

[JOYMAPPING]

# For mapping a GamePad to keys
# Specify a virtual key code to send when the specific joystick control is pressed. Look at vkcodes.htm for codes.

[MOUSEMAPPING]

# For registered users, the ability to control the mouse with a gamepad and/or directional keys. 
# For example for PC strategy games.
# Apparantly this functionality is similar to the software Pinnacle profiler. Remember you can setup an emulator
# as one PC game. Specify enabled, and mousespeed 0-20. 20 Being fastest. This setting overrides the directional
# mapping for the above and buttons 1 and 2 Button 1/CTRL becomes left mouse. Button 2/ALT Right mouse

 MouseMappingEnabled=False
		MouseSpeed=0

[BLOCKKEYS]

# Use this section to disable and block key presses and mouse clicks.
# To disable the mouse clicks use code 1 for left mouse button, 
# 2 for right button and 4 for middle button

Enabled=False

[KEYBOARDREMAP]

# Remap Keys for the emulator. Specify from the from key, which is the key you wish to replace the to key
# This should be good enough for real time gaming. Registered version feature. Look at VKCodes.htm for codes.

@#$%^ That little bugger does hide doesn't it?

Any chance that you'll be coming to Michigan on your next vacation?

I was just in Rapid City a couple weeks back. That's probably about as close as I'll get unless we visit in-laws (Chicago) or other family in southern Indiana...
