Sega System 16 | MAME Controller Exclusive Button Layout Images & Pre Mapped Config Files | NVRAM Fixes & Enhancements, Free Play, Unlocks etc
There are 2 versions of this board, A&B. The B board featured better clocks and sound. Some games were released on both but the parent version is on the A board. I have configured for both preferred A&B versions in this case. Also, Action Fighter has a clone version that featured analog steering and accelerator, again both parent and analog clone have been configured for choice. Quartet and Passing Shot have 4 player variant clones which have also been configured in addition to the parents.
Moving forward I have decided if a game has a clone/variant that has a different name due to region, I will configure for it and provide an image for it independently.
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 are also here. A lot of games need fixes or calibration in the service/test/dip switch menus before they'll work. There's also a bunch of unlockable content, preferable settings and a whole world of strange and wonderful crap in these menus. This will also be covered in this project.
Everything has been done on a 1G1R basis with parents taking priority.
However, as stated above this was a bit objectional for this platform with some games. Multiple versions have been configured for choice for these titles.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Check your controllers input type. XINPUT or DINPUT.
Download Remap files for your input type and place these in the cfg folder of MAME.
Download Button Layout Images so you know what the controls are.
PLAY!!!
DISCLAIMER: FOR THE DINPUT PRE CONFIG I USED A PS4 CONTROLLER. IF YOU ARE USING A DIFFERENT DINPUT CONTROLLER YOUR INPUTS COULD BE DIFFERENT AS DINPUT CONTROLERS CAN VARY WITH INPUT IDs. XINPUT DOES NOT DO THIS SO IT'S PREFERRABLE.
Below is a table of everything that has been done game by game. I have noted everything of importance for the end user experience.
Developer intended cheats are also listed below.

fighter
fighter Important Info:

quartet
quartet2 Rom Info: This game is one of those that fixes the character selection to the coin mech that's in front of each character joystick position. Like The Simpsons Arcade.
This parent version does NOT allow you to select your character via a selection screen. For that, play quartet2 which is the 2 player variant that allows you to select your character.

sjryuko MAHJONG GAME WITH A MILLION INPUTS. NOT USING OR CONFIGURING SDI: Strategic Defence Initiative / Defense
sdi
sdib
defense Important Info:
This game has an A & B board variant. It was known as Defense in EU which has its own clone version 'defense'. The parent Japanese version 'sdi' is different & features harder levels and enemy placement.
All 3 have been configured for choice.
'sdib' I'd consider to be the definitive 1G1R version.

shinobi
shinobi6 Important Info:

For 1G1R the B board version is the one for me. 'shinobi6' was the latest set.

-Free Play set Super League
suprleag Issue: This game was only released as a cocktail version that uses screen flipping when switching between batting and pitching. This is fine if you are viewing the screen from the side as intended, but pitching is upside down on a normal screen. You can't disable screen flipping to my knowledge.
Controls:
