Chankast Control Config = Doesn't Work!


Recommended Posts

Anyone else had problems with the control config not working?

I can load up a game and sit and watch the purdy main menu (Headhunter is what I'm trying atm) but there seem to be NO default keys so I can't even press START, and the control config refuses to open for me.

Your not alone bro. I have PS2 controller hooked up and I havent been able to figure out how to map the MOVEMENT stuff (up down left right). Ive gotten the other buttons mapped correctly.

 

 

*My control config come up without problems though.

Works fine here... I have a MS sidewinder (one of the authors probably does as well).

The only problem I have is that it maps the analog controls to the d-pad

which I hate...

I too have a prob w/ keys.

 

2 systems:

 

-Laptop. 1.6 GHz Centrino, ATI Mobility

Bios runs, Can config keys, All games crash Chankast

 

-Desktop. 1.8 GHz P4, ATI 9600 pro

Bios runs, Games start, CANNOT config keys.

I click on ConfigureControls in main menu and nothing happens. I don't

get the config screen.

 

I copied cfg file from laptop to Desktop but keys do not work.

I deleted the cfg file from laptop and started Chankast and the keys were still configured?!?!

Where are the key defs stored if not in the cfg file?

 

---------------edit-----------------------

I found where the key defs are stored.

in

C:\Program Files\Common Files\DirectX\DirectInput\User Maps

I found 4 files.

SCOTTX_KEYBOARDX_0.INI

SCOTTX_MOUSEX_0.INI

X_KEYBOARDX_0.INI

X_MOUSEX_0.INI

 

SCOTTX_KEYBOARDX_0.INI has the key defs.

 

I copied it to the desktop machine at it worked

Yeah I figured that out awhile ago. I had to configure my controls in 2k and copy things over to my XP partition.

The control config is terrible, it's ass backwards. Double click a key and then select a button. That and it should store your controls in a config file local to the emulator (in the same folder)

Has someone figured out the PS controller layout? I can't get the movement keys to map either.

 

Are the first four keys showing up as garbage for everyone else? Am I to assume they are:

 

up

down

left

right

 

???

You look at the chankast.cfg, its only saving the Drive info. Wish it saved more stuff. Anyone able to get a vms game save to work from a downloaded game save from www.gamefaqs.com.? Like Marvel vs Capcom 2 game save? Its somehow combined within the vms.bin file on this nice Chankast Emu?

So far, runing, slow a bit, MvsC2, Psyvariar2 on my Shuttle XPC SB51G Pnet. 4 1.7Ghz 256SDRAM PC via ifromt he alcohol120 virtual drive feature.

If you want to map your controllers, use Joy2Key (Google for it). Don't try and map your controllers within Chankast's config, it's far from ready for that.

Thanks for the tip! I thought it might be possible... =(

 

Are your first 4 "keys" under joystick garbled too?
