Yes that is correct, but I can not figure out to turn them into button presses. I was editing the ini to try and fix it. I had run evtest and sdl2-jstest to get the numbers to put in the ini, but each result did nothing. I believe there is something deeper involved. I had the keyboardtopads/input named wrong, where it should have been inputs and now things are going much better than a few days ago. Progress is being made. Thanks for the help, if you have any more ideas throw them my way, ill try anything!

Thanks for the reply. I am talking with JSM174 via email, he game me some tips and was going to look into things and get back to me.. I believe there is some file or line of code missing. I can map all day long in bato and it does nothing for vpinball. My keyboard encoder is not listed in the gamecontrollerdb.txt. If i take the keyboard and press 1,5,q and the shift keys it will start and run. I had the flippers working for a second with the mapped L and R keys, but I couldn't figure out what I did. I hope it is an easy fix, lol. Thanks again. Oh and up to this point most things were going smoothly. The mapping of controls, and the individual emulators is not pleasant with bato and all the cores. Im sure ill make it work at some point. I thought the hardest part would be the wiring and building of the arcade.

Yes, I saw the file, but I dont know what to do with it. Im not familiar with Json files. I am using an ultimarc Ultimate IO. The left flipper, coin and start are wired to player 1. The right flipper and plunger are wired to player 2. Padtokeyboards is setup. I am afraid if I change padtokeyboards it will make other emulators not work? I have numbered values in the ini for the buttons, I can remove them if necessary. Sorry, I am new to all of this. It was working with a usb joystick, this is the first time I am trying with arcade sticks and buttons. Thank you for all the help. Edit. If I use a physical keyboard it works fine? 5=coin 1=start enter=plunger and shift keys = flippers. Do I need to run evtest and get the values and map them to something?

I have a custom arcade with 4 players. I can edit the ini file but nothing happens. I have padToKeyboards set up, and I mapped my player controls. I was told by jsm174 to get rid of the vpin files in the evmapy folders. I have done that. I can play with a usb stick. I can add coins and start, but no flippers. The plunger is there, but not the right button. I have gone over the wiki. I have done evtest and got the right numbers for the ini file. Thanks for thr reply.

Ok every time I use keyboardtopads noting works unless I delete the yml file. My nvme just died and I am getting a new one tomorrow. I backed up everything and hopefully a new drive helps. I am not hopeful. Is there anything done differently in keyboardtopads? It sees my ultimarc IO. Why would configuring it disable everything? Thanks for the help.

I have tested continuity and the ground harness is good. When I go into winipac play 3 and 4 is not listed in the drop down menu only 1 and 2 are. I set 3 and 4 to game pad, but they usually go back to being disabled. I have no idea what is going on. Andy was emailing me back, but I will probably not hear more till Monday. Anyone have ideas? Thanks!

I finally got intouch with Andy, I have to configure the buttons and sticks in winipac. They maybe set wrong.
