angelobodetti Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 Hi All - Is there an easy way to map the center xbox button on a 360 controller? I want to map it to escape so I can never need anything else when using big box from my couch. I'm worried if I do joy2key that the controller wont work with RA or any other system that sees it as an actual controller. Thank you.

Lordmonkus Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 For exiting games on my XBox controller I use the back and start buttons together. The XBox button is used by default in Retroarch to bring up its menu for tweaking purposes and save state management. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADScott Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I think it depends on what OS you are running. I was able to use the 360 button for custom functions on windows 7, but since I am now on Windows 10, it seems to be stuck on the MS game menu popup.

Lordmonkus Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Windows 10 you need to roll your controller driver back to the previous version to regain control over the button. I think there is another fix but rolling back driver is the easiest one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADScott Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Thanks @lordmonkus, I will give that a try, it is annoying to have a button that does nothing on the controller! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelobodetti Posted April 19, 2016 Author Share Posted April 19, 2016 lordmonk did you map them just in RA or in Windows? I'd like to have to mapped in Windows to escape. Also, how do you map 2 buttons at once? Literally just press them at the same time when mapping? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADScott Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 The start and back buttons combined to exit games is actually a setting inside LaunchBox and BigBox, under the controller options. You can customise which buttons you press to exit but these are default. Retroarch has a similar option, which is to hold a button, then press another button to perform an action. This can enable you to load save states, take screenshots, and many other functions. I am unable to check the exact location of the settings but it should be under input settings, look for settings for hotkeys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Yeah the start and back buttons to exit is a paid Launchbox feature but you could use X-Padder to do it as well. The RA input settings are under the Settings > Input > Input Hotkey Binds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelobodetti Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 lordmonkus - I am a paid LaunchBox user - how do I enable the start and back for exit? I'm assuming if I poke around in the settings somewhere I will find it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Click tools Options AutoHotKey (if you don't see AutoHotKey you may have to expand under the Input heading and then again under Gamepad/Joystick) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
