Re: Exiting to desktop when press P1+P2

> You should be able to load up the iPac software (WinIpac) and change that Exit function to other keys or combo.

I loaded WinIpac using an old legacy version. I could not figure out anywhere in the software for how to change the exit combo. Unfortunately I found 2 other combos that I didn't want: pressing P1start+down paused the game, and pressing P1start+right brought up the mame menu.

In the end I came up with a solution by tricking the hardware/software. I re-wired the P1start button on the jamma harness to the player 2 UP connection. That was set as "r" on the keyboard. Then I told mame that P1start was "r". Now when I press the P1start the ipac thinks I pressed p2-up (while mame thinks that r means start) and doesn't try to do any fancy combo functions. Problem solved.
