    Sega ST-V Arcade| MAME Controller Exclusive Button Layout Images & Pre Mapped Config Files | NVRAM Fixes & Enhancements, Free Play, Unlocks etc

    By Warped Polygon

    ST-V was easy, a lot of titles to work through and almost burnet out.

    In a nutshell, I'm tooth picking my way through MAME platform by platform, and pre configuring the controls for all arcade games that are designated as working.
    You know the pain of weird awkward auto control mapping and fumbling around trying to figure what is going on. I have done that for you!
    These remaps have been done exclusively for controllers. No keyboard inputs at all and all non essential inputs completely removed. Only what is necessary has been mapped.
    Also, I have provided button layout images so you know exactly what the buttons are for every game!
    I haven't just set whatever, every control has been tested, scrutinised and re-tested before actually making a definitive decision. I believe I have everything mapped to be as intuitive as possible.
    Menu control in arcade games can be unintuitive when using a controller. These remaps have been made to make menu-ing intuitive and easy.
    NOTE: If the left stick doesn't work in menus, the D-Pad will.
    The per game .cfg remap files are idiot proof. Every input is accounted for and set, so your main .cfg wont auto assign any inputs.
    NVRAM files have been provided.
    Everything has been done on a 1G1R basis with parents taking priority.
    However, as stated above this was for some games, a bit objectional for this platform. Multiple versions have been configured for choice for these titles.
    INSTRUCTIONS:
    Download Remap files and place these in the cfg folder of MAME.
    Download NVRAM files and place in nvram folder of MAME.
    Download Button Layout Images so you know what the controls are.
    PLAY!!!
