IPAC exiting MAME

[grimllock]

Good afternoon,

 

I discovered an odd error last night, where a combination of hitting buttons 0 and 3 on my IPAC controller exited out of MAME. And not just on P1 controller, but on all 4 controllers across my two IPACs. I tried looking through MAMEs input mappings, but I couldn't see anything along the lines of "Joy 0 + Joy 3 = exit"

 

Has anyone had this issue before? And what menu or program should I look at in regards to disabling this?

 

I am using two I-PAC 2, and individually the buttons operate properly. It's only when hit together.

Does it do this when starting a game via stand-alone MAME (start MAME, start a game, press 0+3)?  That, vs. launching a game via LaunchBox.

My apologies for the delay, 

 

I just tested, and it only happens when I boot the game through big box. When launching in Mame or launch box it works fine

That tells me you have something mapped in BigBox to "Button 0 + Button 3".  (at least mine calls them "Button".  vs "Joy")  Look for Close the Active  Window under Controller Mappings.  Though if it were there, the same thing would happen in other emulators as well.  At least it's a starting point.

Note: BigBox and LaunchBox have separate controller mappings.  Also, 0 [zero] might not appear as 0.  It may be 1 [one] (or even something else).  i.e. Button 1.

That seemed to do the trick!

 

Thank you very much for your help!
