Restricting controls - how do I get "not x"?
#380512 - 01/03/19 12:00 AM


When setting the controls for a game in MAME, could someone please remind me how to get the "not" prefix? For example, if you look at the default controls, "Reset Machine" is set to "Kbd F3 Kbd Shift" while "Soft Reset" is set to "Kbd F3 not Kbd Shift". How does one manually produce the "not"? I thought you pressed Enter and pressed the (un)desired key twice quickly. If I try to do just that, MAME simply erases whatever I had set and returns with "None". Does anyone know the correct method? Thanks.

press the key you want once, they the key you want to be listed as not twice, quickly. This has to be in a single definition, not split by pressing enter.

it's not exactly the most intuitive way of defining things, but it's also probably one of the oldest methods of doing things MAME has left, so that's kinda expected.
