Drtruffles Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I am losing my mind trying to get this to work. How do I close epsxe with controller input? Running lilypad because I needed to disable the exit confirmation message. Retroarch either doesnt work or runs extremely slow or out of sync so not an option. Epsxe is the only emulator that runs smoothly but the only way to close is escape key and I dont want to open up my cabinet everytime I want to close a game. Also tried antimicroportable which works but needs to always be running which doesnt work with the way bigbox is configured into my pc startup.

Paste this into the Auto Hotkey tab under manage emulators. ; This section closes Demul when pressing Escape $Esc:: { Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}} } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drtruffles Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 But controller automation doesnt work with epsxe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Just now, Drtruffles said: But controller automation doesnt work with epsxe Controller automation works with any emulator you have added to Launchbox. You just need to add that script in this case as not all emulators will close correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start is the hold button and Select is the exit hook. Disregard "return" in the code it is a remnant from another AHK I was messing with.

Lordmonkus Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I just reinstalled ePSXe 2.0.5 here and tested the AHK script, it works, ePSXe closes down cleanly using Select + Start on my controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
