Since I set my machine up BigBox now supports complete remapping of it's control keys in the options. So you don't actually need to change any of your current mappings, just go into BigBox with a keyboard attached, hit escape to go to the options screen, then go to Keyboard Mappings and hit enter to select it, then go to the control you wish to change, hit enter again, then push the button on your arcade machine that you wish to use for each function.
Personally I use my Player 1 Start button to play, and my six Player 1 buttons are mapped to the other functions.
Ah so I do need Bigbox for sure. Thank you so much for the help. I'm hoping I can work on it this evening. Long day at work. Hopefully I can figure it out from here now with your information.
