[request] choose emulator when launching a game

[Crabi]

Hi guys !

My arcade configuration is using a lot of different official gamepads (dreamcast, gamecube, n64, psx etc...)

For each platforms i'm using joy2key to play with my arcade panel, xbox one gamepad and an official one (when there's one)

 

Problem :

The platforms who use analog sticks can have only one gamepad configuration, and i want analog on my xbox one controller and the official gamepad

 

The solution could be like that :

get a copy of the original emulator with another gamepad configuration

and when we launch a game, launchbox/bigbox ask you to select what emulator (gamepad) you want to use

 

Is there something similar already done ? Or is it enough interesting so someone could develop this ?

 

Thanks in advance

Both LaunchBox and Big Box already do this. As long as you have multiple emulators with that game's platform listed in it's associated platform you have the option to choose between emulators. In LaunchBox you right click and selected "Play with..." in Big Box the option should be available in the Game Details screen (which is possible to skip so you need to either turn skip off to use this, or have a key bound to "View Game Details")
