https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/563...dkong.cpp#L1051
So we have to reference dkong_in0_4 for the joystick and the one button, so the inputport should be IN0
https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/563.../dkong.cpp#L948
And we have to reference dkong_in2 for the start buttons and coin, so the inputport should be IN2
https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/563.../dkong.cpp#L996
Unable to test at the moment, but those should be correct for dkong.

I had problems with that, too, then Vas banged me in the head a couple times until it triggered me.
See update to nbajamte as an example. One element for both joysticks; mask for one is 0xf, while the other is 0xf00.
Looks like 19xx and 1941 will be similar to that.

Inputraw method, really hard stuff to deal with!
You can go baldy with that. It should be a lua script or something to make mame echo the raw values while you press them in the terminal or screen, it would help A LOT!!
To find your default "defstat" or "inputmask" you take a look at the CPS2 driver for instance starting at L992
Look at "IPT_JOYSTICK_RIGHT" for player 1, you have '0x0001' for right, '0x0002' for left, etc. Add all those 4 values for right, left, down, up or 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 = 15, 15 hexadecimal is f or 0xf.
Do the same for player 2, 100 + 200 + 400 + 800 = f00
There you have it.
Sorry, the forum it's not helping today.

I concur. It would vastly aid this process more than any hook utility would. But I don't know enough about coding to know how involved it would be to add such a function. In the meantime, yours and Mr. Do's suggestions have enabled me to figure it out so far. It's making the control panel views far more useful than before. I'm REALLY glad I kept my source cpo files now.
