Title: FBNeo SDL2 Linux keyboard binding
Post by: mudakle on July 17, 2022, 04:49:03 PM

Hello
I'm trying to use FBneo SDL2 on Linux, to play a SF3S widescreen hack someone recently made.
The problem being that I'm a keyboard player, and I don't know how to bind my keys to actions
Would someone help me? I would like to stay on SDL2 and not migrating to libretro.

Hi,

I think you just need to press tab and remap ? Assuming you are using the latest revision of the emulator. See https://github.com/finalburnneo/FBNeo/issues/1103

I am on the latest revision of the emulator but I still can't find how to remap.
I have "Controller options" but it doesn't seem like I can use my keyboard to remap them (you can see on the screenshot : it doesn't detect my keyboard as a controller).
I looked the issue you linked but the person in the issue already had a .ini file, I don't have any ini file (except one from the Fightcade's fork, but I don't know if they're compatible since there's a LOT of version between their forked version and the actual version)

EDIT: Thought, it doesn't bother me if I need to manually edit my sfiii3ws.ini file, I just need to know how to get the correct key ID.

Sorry i'm not very knowledgeable about the sdl port, though i believe keyboard mapping is the issue cjom fixed just the other day. It might be easier to directly ask him on our discord (https://discord.gg/8EGVd9v) if you can't get it to work.

Hi!
The mapping menu is very basic and for controllers only...

This is the way :) You can get the keys IDs from https://github.com/finalburnneo/FBNeo/blob/master/src/intf/input/inp_keys.h

and if after edit you copy sfiii3ws.ini to ~/.local/share/fbneo/config/presets/cps.ini it will be used when playing other games fighting games for the first time...

I had the same question, thank you for the answers! :)

Now what's the difference between switch and constant in the ini file?
I'm tryint to set up the fire button as turbo, should I change it to constant?
Also, bellow the "input" section is a "macro" section for each button, how can I use this?

Thanks in advance! <3
