Help with exit hotkey on nestopia and snes9x on old hardware
« on: November 09, 2021, 07:39:51 PM »
Hi everyone, long story short

I'm building an arcade cabinet with a windows xp machine ( due to drivers incompat). I'm using attract 2.6.1 and I can use exit hotkeys for FBA and Project64, but snes9x and nestopia refuses to work.

When I launch both in windowed mode, works fine but not in fullscreen.

If anyone has any input, it will be very much appreciated

not sure about nestopia...have you tried FCEUX for nes and see if that works?
as far as I can see there is no way to change the exit key naturally...

but seeing as how you are on a old 32 bit XP machine

you can try and old program wrapper called closemul if you really want to use nestopia

this will work for snes9x as well
People want life easy..then complain about it

Hey

im using the Programm AutoHotKey (https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/Program.htm)
with it i have an exe file compilet.

PgUp::
send !{f4}
send {esc}
PgDn::
send !{f4}
send {esc}

with this code

PgUp/PgDn you can change, if you press the key. AHK will send ALT F4 and next Escape. Most of the Emulators will shutdown. Works for me.
