First of all, thank you for your enthusiasm for FS-UAE, mrsequin

Would LOVE so much to see a vid on youtube about somebody who go through the configuration of a classic gamepad and a non classic gamepad and mapping on some buttons some keyboards key useful for some games.
Sometimes vids are clearer than words....
There is a guide here: http://fengestad.no/wp/fs-uae/custom...-configuration, but it would of course be easier to follow with some screenshots and tutorial explaining each step. This is soon needless though, because I have created a configuration tool (screenshot attached). It is written in Python/wxPython. It is meant to be distributed with the upcoming launcher program, but the tool is done, and I can make a distribution of the gamepad configuration tool for Windows now if this will help you.

You must manually specify the files you want to have in the floppes list, for instance:
Code:
floppy_image_0 = some game disk 1.adf
floppy_image_1 = some game disk 2.adf
floppy_image_2 = some game disk 3.adf
...
For multiple games, the best way would be to create a separate configuration file for each game (and floppy_image_0... options is then useful when the game has more disks than available floppy drives, for instance Monkey Island 2 with its 11 disks..). By choosing to open an .fs-uae with FS-UAE.exe (in Windows), and choosing to always open .fs-uae files in FS-UAE, you can start games by doubleclicking on the configuration files...

I am working on a launcher to help people start FS-UAE without messing with configuration files (see attached screenshot 2). It starts FS-UAE just fine, but only supports the most basic options yet. Also, the configuration browser with icons on the right side is just a mockup, and is not implemented yet -but it gives you an idea of the direction I'm planning for the launcher.
