So I needed an xml reader for mame ctrlr files and finally broke down and made one...
For the un-know: Mame uses ctrlr files that are XML files to read in what input of said joystick goes where. My program runs out side of mame and allows a much more elegant approach to editing it. The files are used for special controllers like the XArcade stick. This should also work with the default files but it was not made for it. In theory this files will work with any xml, but the formatting is tailored to a mame ctrl file.
For the know: Hey if you can use it go for it. Yes I know there are XML readers out there and I know of one in game editor, but this is what I needed. So if you can use it go for it. If you would like to see a change name it. If you dont care then go away.. Bye now..
For thoes of you that wish to have this or help beta test it get it here.. download
TODO:
1) There is a bug that wont allow saving if you run mame after ctrlr_editor is open. I think its a file lock issue.
2) Try to make a button mapper so you can press the button in ctrlr_editor is stead of knowing the code.
