Mega GP2X Mania
I started trying out more 5200 games on a800 today, after trying a couple I got to choplifter, it ran fine but I realised I couldn't shoot, then I remembered that I had problems with HERO using MESS for 5200 emulation on the PC.
After a bit of research I discovered how to fix the second fire button for the atari 800 emulator. There is a problem with the original a800 emulator where the second firebutton has been mapped to the left shift key, this has been carried over to the gp32 port as well. So simply edit the 5200.men with notepad and NOT wordpad (because the emu won't read the menus properly unless they are plain text) and add D:B:SHIFT
make sure it's followed by a little square, which are the linebreaks, just copy and paste one of the existing ones.
If you have done it right you will now have a working second firebutton, you should now be able to fire in choplifter and use the dynamite in hero, and i'm sure there are quite a few other games that need both fire buttons.
