vsilvalopes Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Hi Everyone!Well , after setting up my GameEx and it´s emulators , I´ve run into a problem with Mame. My HTPC will not have a real keyboard in the final setup.All the control functions will be done with a Joypad and a IR Controler.Well , all the emulators go back to GameEx when I press "ESC". Everything works as expected.Only when I'm running MAME this doesn´t work.Mame only go back to GameEx , if I press the REAL "ESC" key.Using EventGhot to emulate the "ESC" Keystroke , doesn´t work.In all the other emulators , this work.I´ve tried other options like Xpadder and Joy2Key. But none worked.My Mame version is M.A.M.E. v0.136 (Dec 31 2009)My GameEx Version is 10.37Anyone can give me an help ? Thanks to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to everyone!You have to compile mame yourself from the source to allow directinput rather than raw input. There is a thread here regarding that.

vsilvalopes Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 You have to compile mame yourself from the source to allow directinput rather than raw input. There is a thread here regarding that.Hi Bryan !I´ve tried to compile MAME using this clue that you give me.I´ve followed the instructions of Headkaze on his "Mame Compiler" web site.And to enable the directinput I used these instructions from Headkaze in another forum.http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=92761.0But no sucess at all ! Eventghost and joy2key still doesn´t work.I REALLY need this , because my GameEx setup is in my HTPC , and I don´t want to hook up a keyboard just to exit Mame Games... Can you give a clue of this thread ? Any Keyword to find it ?I´ve searched the GameEx forum , but no sucess at all...Thanks again ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
