X-Arcade Exit button support

[D.L. Neal]

Hello,

I have been building a MAME machine out of an old X-Arcade cabinet I picked up. The only pieces from the original machine are pretty much the shell, monitor, and buttons/PCB. I have BigBox installed and it’s been working great!! However, I have to use the X-arcade hotkey script for the big red exit button (it’s programmed to be mouse button 3). I actually wired up the button to 12v power and a fade in/out circuit and it really gives the machine a great vibe.

‌

Anyway, everything was going great and I’m almost completely done with the build. However, when I change the custom user interface to boot up directly to BigBox.exe the hotkey script does not automatically initiate. I was hoping you could add the mouse button 3 function to the button mapping section of BigBox options.

‌

This would alleviate a massive headache for me since I am not a programmer and have a very limited IT background. I have been reading up and writing scripts so I can try to shoestring something together, but I’m not even sure if what I am attempting to do is even possible.

‌

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
