AHK exit not working

[Jeff Chaffin]

Autohotkey to remap keys to exit program. Remap to escape key not working in MAME0169

Autohotkey script: 4 & 2:: send, {ESC} return

I have tried every variation of Escape key I can find in the autohotkey documentation, but I cannot remap these two keys to the escape keys. I have tested the script using a msgbox command and it works just fine. I just can't get the escape key mapped to exit out of the game. I am using an X-arcade controller, but it is only sending keyboard commands (I am not using the custom Xarcade cfg)

To be clear, if I hit the Esc key on the keboard it works just fine, but I want to control launchbox with only the Xarcade stick.

launchbox 5.7 windows 10

BTW, Launchbox rocks. I just started yesterday and love the way it organized my small MAME test set. As soon as I get this issue solved I will go for the full import..

thanks, Jeff

Hi Jeff, I think this is better suited for the forums. I don't have any immediate ideas, but if you can put a post up there I'm sure the community can help you out. :)
