[Controller Automation Not Working]

The option is called "close active window" in Bigbox, "Exit" is to exit Bigbox itself. You also may need to actually set the exit in MAME itself, if so you need to set your combo to the "UI Cancel" option in MAME.

Thanks! That worked!

You have to set the controller automation in BigBox as well, it has it's own setup for it in the Options menu in BigBox.

Yes, I have done that as well. No matter what controller button I set for "exit", it doesn't work. The only way to exit from MAME is the escape key, which works perfectly as intended in BB.

I know this is a bit of an old thread, but I have the same issue. LB controller automation works, but not in BB. I am using an xbox360 controller and in MAME I can't exit a game using the "select/start" combo that I use in LB with no trouble.

In MAME itself, I am unable to configure an "exit" key combo either using the controller. There as well, I have to use a keyboard key "escape" to get out. 

I've thought about using xpadder, but it seems very finicky to setup and I don't believe will let you use a 2-key combo to trigger the "escape" key.

 

Any ideas?
