Re: Remote Buddy and MacMame cant get Virtual Keyboard to work

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
 
If you have a second computer that you can use to remotely access your 
Mac via Screen Sharing: can you control MacMame via the other computer?

Best regards,

Hi Felix

I'm also running MAME OS X so I tried that here. You can't use Screen Sharing to control MAME when a game is running. I'm pretty sure it accesses the keyboard at a "lower" level as you've suggested.

In any case, MAME needs to be able to detect simutaneous multiple key presses, so its never going to work with Remote Buddy.

My advice would be to buy a wireless joystick like I've got, works great!
