General / Re: ratty daves image is missing the Displays Menu

« on: February 04, 2017, 01:59:11 PM »

That image was built using an older version of attractmode which didn't have that feature.

Thank you for clearing this up for me.
I found out that I can update attract mode by using the following command lines and that by doing so, the 'Displays Menu' would appear.

Code: [Select]

cd
mkdir develop
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mickelson/attract attract
cd attract
make USE_GLES=1
sudo make install
cd
rm -r -f develop
Can you confirm that this are the right command lines?
Thanks.

General / ratty daves image is missing the Displays Menu

« on: February 02, 2017, 11:39:25 AM »

Hi,

I've downloaded the ratty daves 128GB image and I've noticed that in the Configure -> displays, there is no 'Displays Menu' Options. I've gone through the whole list a few times just to make sure.

Am I missing something? I'd like to be able to change the way the displays menu looks, to put robospin on this menu as well.

Thanks.

General / Re: how can I setup 1 button to be displays menu control and exit mame game

« on: January 30, 2017, 09:51:49 AM »

1. I'm building an arcade cabinet and I'd like to setup one of my buttons to have dual function. When I am in attract mode I'd like it to be displays menu and when I enter a mame game to exit the mame game. I know that by pressing start+shift buttons the game will exit, but I need to press 2 buttons to exit the game. So is there any way to configure just one button to do that?

To set up another exit key in mame is pretty easy

1. Start the game and press TAB
2. Select Input (General)
3. Select User Interface
4. Scroll down to UI Cancel and change ESC to whatever key you want.. OR add the new key and keep ESC as well.

Setti

Thank you! This is what I was looking for!

2. Another related question (just so I don't clutter the forum with small questions): what happens say if I setup the "D" key on my keyboard to be the displays menu control, and I enter a mame game. So if I press the "D" while in the mame game? Will it turn off and go back to the game menu or will it do nothing?

thanks
