CoolCV emulator for Mac OS X, Linux, Windows and Raspberry

[CoolCV emulator for Mac OS X, Linux, Windows and Raspberry]

First up, thanks nachochess for writing the emulator! I can revisit my glory days of playing Mr. Do! now.

 

Secondly, I might have found the Keycode solution for us Pi owners using CoolCV-

 

RetroPie seems to be using SDL, and while I'm kind of a LINUX/Pi n00b (not even using NOOB yet), I did remember how to Google, and found this page:

 

https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDLKeycodeLookup

 

I used the codes on that page to map my shiny new wireless 23-key number pad - and it worked wonderfully!

 

Extra bonus, I can use the keypad to control both Emulation Station and MAME.. and play Mario but it is awful with a keyboard.

 

Thanks again, and I hope this helps some people out until the F7 bug is resolved.

 

That's how I'm playing the Colecovision games, with the keyboard... until Cool CV can hopefully recognize presses on my D-Pad... is SDL what is used to read the controllers as well?

Is there any way to configure the joystick (the directions, not the buttons)? the controller I use for my Raspberry Pi has analog sticks and a D-Pad (Similar to an Xbox 360 controller). CoolCV defaults to using the left analog stick for control. A lot of games are super difficult to play with the analog control, I hope I can somehow use the D-PAD instead but it doesn't even register as a keypress. Amazing emulator though!

 

Thanks!
