ProSystem emulator

[Slope]

First, I want to say that I really like this emulator. Small, color and sound all seem great (at least for my needs).

 

Now, the problem. I want to load this on my console PC. This PC has a front-end on it to select my emulator and games so I have no keyboard hooked up to the computer (everything is controlled through a gamepad). It would be great if the emulator could quit using a single keystroke (like esc preferrably). Also, not show the menu bar each time you start it. Since I pass the romname through the command line, and set full screen in the .ini file, and use a wrapper to close the application when I hit "q" (because esc only hides the menu), I don't need or want to see the menu, but I also don't want to have to hit a button on the gamepad to hide it each time.

 

I was going to email the author to see if he can help me, but the help file doesn't work so I have no way to get his email address.

 

Does any know how to configure ProSystem to work as I describe or know how to contact the author???

 

Thanks in advance.

As you've discovered, ESC gets rid of the menu. This is pretty common among emulators. What you need to do is configure your gamepad's "quit" button to hit ALT-F4. That should cleanly exit the emulator.

 

Hope this helps!
