Supermodel 0.1 O.K. / Supermodel 0.2a K.O. :'(

[Ptitnicou]

(sorry for my poor english)
Since a few hours, I try to understand why my keyboard doesn't work with supermodel 0.2a

I never had problem with Supermodel 0.1 but when I try exactly the same game (with exactly the same keys) with Supermodel 0.2a and try all the keys of my keyboard, only F1,F2,F3,..... F12 work and I see the same screens of the game again and again and again and never see the menu or the screen where I can choose the map, the car or the fighter....

for example :
Daytona USA 2

when I use KEY_6 with supermodel 0.1, I enter the Test Menu

when I try exactly the KEY_6 with supermodel 0.2a nothing happens

and it's the same problem with all the games (lost world, scud race,....) and KEY 1, 2,.....etc....

I use the Win32 version of supermodel on my WIndows XP

Are you sure the Supermodel window was highlighted?

Do not use Supermodel.ini from Supermodel v0.1a, it is not compatible. The new Supermodel.ini must be present in the Config folder, or you will have to remap keys from scratch using -config-inputs. And also, make sure that you launch Supermodel from the directory that the executable and Config folders are located. That will fix your problem.

The windows was highlighted and, of course, I use each Supermodel with their appropriate supermodel.ini (the supermodel.ini for 0.2a is the file that I have downloaded on supermodel3.com), that why I don't understand why Supermodel 0.2a doesn't work, why when I press the KEY_6, TEST MENU doesn't appear in the Supermodel 0.2a version,... etc....

You're pressing 6 above 't' and 'y', not the numpad, correct?

Try this:

Run: supermodel -print-inputs

What does it say? Can you paste it here? If it doesn't fit, try 'supermodel -print-inputs >file.txt', then open file.txt in Notepad.

[Ptitnicou]

I have opened file.txt and retry all the keys that appear in this file (the 6 above "t" and "y" and also the 6 of the numpad, the 1 above "a" and the 1 of the numpad,....), no key works

another example : during the demo of "scud race", there is a menu where you can test different views, I changed views by pressing A, S, D or F in supermodel 0.1, not in supermodel 0.2a, despite the fact that in the file.txt of supermodel 0.2a, I see :

Racing Game VR View Buttons:
VR1 = KEY_A,JOY1_BUTTON1
VR2 = KEY_S,JOY1_BUTTON2
VR3 = KEY_D,JOY1_BUTTON3
VR4 = KEY_F,JOY1_BUTTON4

Paste your error.log here.

When I have written Run: supermodel -print-inputs and after that the other message that you have written ( supermodel -print-inputs >file.txt ) , I have see an error message and the file error.log that appear in my folder:


Supermodel v0.2a Error Log
--------------------------

Started as:
argv[0] = supermodel
argv[1] = -print-inputs

No ROM set specified.
Program terminated due to an error.


I don't know if it will help you to help me

[Ptitnicou]

IT WORKS !!!!!!

I have found what I've done wrong

I will explain tonight what I have done..... because I must go to work

[Bart]

Try running it with a game and let me see the error log.

Something is fishy here. Are you absolutely sure you are starting it in the correct directory? Do you have anything besides the keyboard attached? Do you have a weird keyboard set up (for example, a keyboard shared between computers, multiplexed through a different device)?
