Problems with CD32 control mapping since upgrading to latest WINUAE :(

Heavy Stylus · 17 May 2010, 18:40

Today I updated to the latest build of WINUAE, and am having a right old nightmare trying to get the bloody CD32 pad controls mapped to the keyboard on my PC.

I managed to get them working last time I loaded the emulator up, but today the same config file is failing to recognise the key presses at all :P

Can someone take a look for me and tell me what I am doing wrong, or simply post back a working version?

FYI, I'd mapped red button to 0 (numpad), blue to . (numpad), yellow to Enter (numpad) and green to 3 (numpad).

Please someone help me to get this working again!

I don't see anything wrong. Make sure keyboard is enabled and possible other keyboards are disabled. Post winuaebootlog.txt.

You can also try latest beta because of new input map test function

EDIT: I think I know the problem: because keyboard on/off state was not saved to configuration (forgot? I don't know, 2.2 beta finally does it) and 2.1 introduced always-on rawkeyboard mode, rawkeyboard and "normal" keyboard enabled at the same time can cause problems. Workaround is to also your custom mappings to all listed keyboards.

I only have one keyboard!

Could having multiple instances of WINUAE open at the same time be the culprit?

You probably still have 2 keyboards listed in input panel (directinput keyboard and "raw" keyboard)

Perhaps.

Yes this was the issue :3

Interestingly, this didn't happen with the previous version I was using, and I actually find it quite handy to have more than one 'virtual amiga' running on my PC...

Case closed

It might be accidental "bug", try duplicating it while logging is enabled (make sure both winuae instances have different current directory, two programs writing to same log won't work very well..)
