Found a workaround for this…. Just leave the hotkey as select and use the second Buffalo controller to add coins instead.

That is true… It’s just one of those things I’ve been trying for a while and driving me nuts!

How do you get ‘experiemental fba/mame’ emulators – manually add in emulator to replace the existing one?

How do you unmap a function – just make it null in the custom joypad config file?

Thanks!

(Thanks for taking the time to make the helpful setup vids by the way Floob – awesome work!)

Issue is when you then use the shoulder + another button then as a combo, or a special that involves say all punch buttons… you end triggering something related to the hotkey then… or if you use shoulder + a direction it knocks is on a save state for example.

It’s driving me nuts trying to find a way around it!

If I had a 7th button on the controller it would be fine!

I’ve tried re-assigning the hotkey to the keyboard from within the FBA in-game menu also but it only detects controller presses.

Select is the default button for enter coin… start is well, start game.

If you change hotkey to select then you can’t enter a coin.

If you change it start, then you can’t start the game.

It’s well documented that under FBA you have to change the hotkey from the DEFAULT button of SELECT for this reason…

Any other game would be fine as there will be a spare button (such as a shoulder button).

No… the buffalo controller has 6 buttons + start and select. All of the buttons are used in some games such as Street fighter… for most games it’s fine as the may only use 2 or maybe 4 buttons (so you can assign the shoulder buttons as a hotkey).

You can’t use select as your hotkey as this is also the key for add coin in Final Burn Alpha emulator….

That’s the reason you remap it to something else….
