Changing WinUAE Keys

Basquemactee1 · 03 July 2007, 05:16

Ayup all, it's the useless one again! Just wondering, apart from the default A, B & C options for simulating joysticks 1 and 2, is there any way of setting up the keys that you want to use (for example Z,X,S,C and spacebar?) THe reason I ask is that option C doesn't seem to work on mine, I can only use B. Numerical keypad is out of the question as it's a laptop.

If not, guess I gotta find a way of getting hold of a joystick (and if anyone can tell me wether they function thru the USB port etc).

Thanks!!

It`s easy to do.. you need to goto the input screen.. change it to keyboard.. then begin mapping keys to joy2 positions..

I know of lots of people that have that USB converter for 8 bit joysticks working well.
