That key can also be set to do different things depending on the emulator you are currently using If you are starting it by using external program,why exactly is a problem to use another external program to do what pcsx2 can't doįor example,I can set a button on my gamepad with AutoHotKey to whatever I want(including closing pcsx2)and I can make that script to run the launcher you are using so you don't need to start two programs. How are you starting pcsx2,you must be using enternal program(launcher)otherwise you MUST have a keyboard or a mouse to run it I hope this would improve the way I have published my first request. I understand you try to improve this software with cutting edges changes and bug fixes, but, honestly, isn't open/close software with a controller a priority ? still open (abandoned) since beginning 2016. Team members themself have also discussed it as a serious issue ( #1082). You can easily understand that 4 pages of discussion since that date is not my priority only. This thread is from pcsx2 official forum -> 2014 : I hope you understand my point of view and that of those who have been using your program for years. and there is not always a keyboard to exit a game. Many use pcsx2 from retroarch, launchbox, hyperspin, arcade terminal or steam, or just a media center computer behind the TV, etc. I'm not a developer, but I've worked on many projects, and the most important thing when using a tool (in this case a controller since we're on a console emulation) is to at least close the program via this tool (the controller, AND the keyboard).

Please don't take it personal, but I think my impatient request is honest.

If you can't, you should wait when someone who has the skills, time and knowledge do it.įirst of all, thank you (you and all the team members) for your contribution about this emulator. If you feel so strongly about it, you are free to code it yourself. This is a priority for you maybe, not for the project.
