If the configuration of the buttons does not suit you for a game or if the controller you are using is not correctly autoconfigured, it is possible to create a specific mapping for a game.
Here is how to proceed.
From the RetroBat menu, configure the input driver depending on your controller (use XINPUT for XBOX compatible controllers, DINPUT for others like Dualshock, etc.):
Then run the game from within RetroBat, and once in the game press ALT + ENTER to exit fullscreen mode and access the emulator menu:
Go to Game > Configure Controls
From there configure the controls as per your preference
Once finished : close the window and quit the emulator.
The game input configuration file is created in the emulators\m2emulator\CFG
folder :
Depending on the driver that was used when creating the file (DINPUT or XINPUT), the file created in the previous step needs to be copied to the right destination folder:
\emulators\m2emulator\templatescfg\dinput
- for dinput driver
\emulators\m2emulator\templatescfg\xinput
- for xinputdriver
RetroBat provides default files that are compatible with XBOX controller for xinput and with Dualshock controller for dinput, you can safely erase these with your newly-created file.
Once your configuration file has been placed in the correct folder, run RetroBat and open the model2 advanced system configuration:
Go to CONTROLS and change the settings named "TYPE OF CONFIGURATION" to "TEMPLATES":
RetroBat will now use the template you created in previous steps when running the game.
