AHK script for Xarcade tankstick users to exit emulators that do not have internal binding options since Xarcade simulates key strokes. It is modified from the script in this post

Script is set to use Player 4 start button and Player 2 start button as exit. Hold P4 and P2 for more than 2 seconds. Simply change "4" and/or "2" to the key of choice if you desire to use an alternate button key. This is using default Xarcade layout. 

 

~4 & 2::

Duration=0

Loop

{	Duration ++

	If !GetKeyState("4","P") || !GetKeyState("2","P")

		Break

	If Duration > 2

	{	

        Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}}

		break

	}

	Sleep, 1000

}

return

 

This looks exectly something that am struggling with for the last 4 days, i have installed AHK could you explain me maybe how i can use this for example with dc emulator nulldc.

How can i add this script within the emulator

Sorry if this is a stupid questions

Okey am not familiar with AHK but i will look into it

 

C is my escape key in bigbox but also should be the exit key for when emulator is started

[MS-Dos AHK script wont run]

OKey this looks bit complicated, will need to look into this.

Basicly i need to close the emulator with 1 key and once closed the key can be used in bigbox again.
So i dont want to bind 1 key to alt+f4 because if i close the emulator it goes to bigbox and then i cant use this key anymore.

 

In bigbox i have the C key setup as "back button" but in most emulators i have setup the C key also to close the emulator.

Example mame has key setting "UI cancel or UI exit" to close the emulator, but once closed the key can be used as back again which is great.
However not all emulators have keysetting to close the emulator

 

But thanks for providing the link, will check it out

[Exit emulator from bigbox]

Hello all

 

First of all i first start using launchbox yesterday and its working great ! i love it

My question is, most emulators like mame have a exit key build in to close the emulator

However some emulators dont have this, there is a option in bigbox "automation" to close exmulators or kill current screen but it looks like it only support controllers at this moment.

Am using arcade (winpac) buttont, is there a way to bind 1 key in my case the "C" key to hold the key that will close any current screen or emulator but also still works as normale "C" buttotn in bigbox (which is currently bind to escape or exit)

 

Thank you
