Setting up separate two gamepad buttons for Volume Up/Down

[chriss]

Hey guys,

I haven't been on the forums for a while. I hope you are all doing well!

Right now I'm trying to set up this old computer as a karaoke/game station running gameex. Everything works well, except I cant find a way to have two buttons on my gamepad for VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN. It only works by pushing down one button and then press up/down...How do I do that otherwise?

Cheers,

Chriss

GameEx is designed to hold the volume button and then press up/down on the joystick. If you want to do it differently, you will have to write a script or use an external application. I would personally write a AHK or AI script to make a single button press send the command to turn the volume up/down. The alternative is to use a program like cabvol which will change the volume in Windows (slightly different than what GameEx does AFAIK).
