Howard's page.Ĭontrols.dat Forum (Johnny5 WIP).ĬPViewer - MameWAH stuff Downloads. The emulator which I used is listed in the parenthesis. I have installed the following Consoles, Handhelds, etc. I also wanted to state that even if you do not agree with what software I chose, how I configured something or anything at all which I wrote in this document, then perhaps you will simply recognize the effort I put forth to document this information for the BYOAC community. This document was created since I have been asked by multiple people to explain how to setup various emulators in MALA. The MALA frontend is packed with features, so once you have installed some emulators and have them working how you like, then look at the options available in MALA and tweek your setup to be more specific to your needs. This document does not detail all the options available in MALA, but rather walks the user through how I configured various emulators in MALA. Also this should reduce the need to have to find and use special 'hacked' versions of an emulator which provide the key sequences for you already. (Example: Knowing emulators do not always exit by pressing the ESC key, this function will allow a person to configure MALA to trap an 'ESC' keypress from being sent to an emulator and send the correct exit key sequence (ex: Alt-Q') to the emulator instead, thus causing it to close). The MALA frontend can trap key presses to stop them from being sent to an emulator and can even send specific keypresses to the emulator for you instead.

My encoder can be configured to match any default emulator settings pretty much).įor those of you who do not have a keyboard encoder capable of mapping multiple keypresses, then you might want to use a MALA function which is available. As a result, I do not need an emulator to offer the ESC key specifically as a way of exiting the emulator. (Advantage: Exiting an emulator by pressing multiple keys (ie: 'Alt-X, Q') is not a problem for me when using the KE-72 encoder. The encoder allows me to map any key (or even multiple key sequences) to a single button press. Keep in mind, some of the emulators which I selected to configure work for me easily since I use a KE-72 Hagstrom keyboard encoder (a little expensive, but worth every dollar in my opinion since it is very powerful). MALA (HOW TO?) by UncleT (v1.3)Here is my attempt to document everything I did to setup MALA for the various emulators I chose to configure onto my WinXP(SP2) system.
