About This File

About

This will display the controls for the selected game on a secondary monitor (will work on 2+ monitor setups).

It will either read the controls from the required xml file or display the control image from: LaunchBox > Images > [System] > Arcade - Controls Information

It includes an xml control file for MAME and a default configuration for LaunchBox and Windows.

Game controls can be manually added copying the existing format.

 

Installing

Extract the zip into your LaunchBox plugins folder and ensure that all files remain in the LaunchBoxControls folder

ie. Launchbox\Plugins\LaunchBoxControls\

Edit the settings.xml file as required. The screen number to display the controls on being the most important, currently set to 2. You can get this number from computer Display Settings.

This is cool, but I would love to be able to toggle the controls on screen 2 on and off.  The control screen doesn't seem to be able to be minimized or controlled, taking up the whole screen and being the front most item, rendering the second screen only for seeing the controls.  I'll have to take this plug-in out for now unfortunately, since I need that second screen for organizing my files easier.  Hopefully this gets updated because its great not having test out what buttons do what on my joy stick setup per game.  Knowing the screen-wipe button is great so you don't waste them!
