Modern PC Games & Controls (Gauntlet, Double Dragon Neon)

[angryherbalist]

Hey all.  I received my 4 player controller and have Hyperspin all working great with MAME and console emulation.

PC Games have been tougher, and I'm wondering if anyone has solutions.

Many PC Games only allow 1 keyboard input and other players would have to use gamepads.  I am finding lots of solutions to convert gamepads to keyboard keystrokes, but not the opposite, where a keystroke emulates a button press on a gamepad.

Does anyone have a way to make games like Double Dragon Neon or Gauntlet work with a 4 player arcade cabinet?

Thanks!!

There was a picture posted recently of a Keyboard layout that was using a 4 Player Ipac.

You should be able to set keyboard buttons for all players? Or is it restricting the device per player?

yeah that was actually me who posted that image.

basically those games require player 2-4 bindings be to gamepads.  only 1 person can bind to keyboard, period.

Well that's just bad programming on their side. I will keep an eye out for Joystick Emulation though and let ya know if I come across something.
