i did, the issue is (apperently its a common issue) is that if your using a wireless controller or usb controller, sometimes when you re launch mame , all the mapping get reset and you have to re do all the button again.

That is a issue i have never seen before personally, You need to set the  controls in input general.

Yeah the General section is for all games and the Machine is just for that game or system if emulating a console or computer through Mame.

Yep, i use wireless controllers and cant say i have ever had it "just disapear"

try it with a control pad, you will see , after mapping the buttons, if you re launch mame, the mappings are gone. are we allow to post urls here?

you can post screen shots directly, it depends what the url is whether we allow it or not.

I have a 360 controller, Hori Fight Commander and a wireless Logitech controller and none of these exhibit this issue with version 186 or any other version of Mame I have setup in the past.

man, if you can tell me your secret, you will make my day!!

i set this up big box for me and my 4 year old and he loves mame, but cant play it because of this issue.  I read something about guid for each controller , and that some sort mame ini file to fix this.

There is no secret just set it in the tab menu i showed you, set it as general then "this machine" for any game you want different than default.

I wish I had a solution for you but unfortunately I do not.

It could possibly be an issue with the UI version of Mame you are using, I have only used command line versions for a while now and never run into this issue.

In that thread you linked they mention launching a game with no controller plugged in or turned on will cause the controls to reset.

are you using a xbox 360 wireless controller?,  if you launch mame and the controller is not on, mame doesn't see the controller and it resets the controller settings.  I tried reinstalling mame and different versions.

Im using MAMEUI myself, no issues. Drop this in your Cfg folder.
