MAMEUI pause button not working?
#395800 - 03/18/23 07:53 PM


I am running MAME 64 bit version 0.230 and MAMUI version 0.248. My pause button (P) is not working. I went into vanilla MAME (MAME 0.230) and the pause button works fine.

Can anyone help me fix my pause in MAMEUI?

I think Robbbert changed it to the actual 'pause' button on the keyboard at some point. See if you can remap it in the input options from the tab menu.

Thanks for your reply.

Hmmm... My keyboard has no pause button. I don't think I've ever seen or heard of a keyboard with a pause button.

I looked to try to remap it. I cannot find the appropriate menu item to do this. Closest I can get is to go to Options-->Default System Options-->??? and then no idea what to select next. I thought the tab with "Input" in the name might be it, but that's not it.

It could also be called the "Break" button.

TAB > Input Settings > Input Assignments(general) > User Interface > Pause Button

There you can change it to whatever but I always thought that the pause button was the logical choice for a pause function...but to each their own...

Little late to the party, I see you successfully remapped it to the P key, but Pause is standard on almost every keyboard....

Well, I stand red-faced. DUH!
So I tried that and it does work fine (I still can't believe I missed that). Now I mapped my keyboard to use P to pause and unpause, but if I didn't have my keyboard mapped to do that and just used the pause key, how do you unpause? Using the keyboard mapping for P, it basically toggles, doing pause and unpause. But using the pause button, it only pauses, it does not toggle and unpause on the next tap.

I'm sure the answer will leave me red-faced again, but I tried many keys and couldn't find it.
