      Fantastic ... would there be any way to configure ESC on the joystick? Modifying some file.

      Could you install the 2?

      Thank you for your work.

        @snock I use Xboxdrv driver to make my PS4 generic USB gamepad work as a keyboard. For this i use a runcommand file with configuration for openjazz and other source ports. It works great.

        Maybe there is some manual setting in the openjazz config file. That would probably be your best bet to look for the ESC setting.

        I'm not sure about what you mean with "Could you install the 2?"

        Your welcome.

            @shavecat At the moment no. I have been busy with creating ECWolf source port for RetroPie(Wolfenstein 3D with mods support).

            What sort of bugs do you experience?

            I have earlier investigated if Jazz Jackrabbit 2 could be built into a working binary for our Raspberry Pi and i found out that it was not possible due to hardware limitations.

            I haven't checked for a long time and can not tell if it is possible or not for Jazz 2. Hopefully the new Raspberry Pi 4B will make more source port available to get working.

                The port is working beautifully except that the ESC key is not mapped to the joypad.
                Any ideas how to map it so that it makes it possible to exit the game without using a keyboard?

                please note openjazz.cfg is binary so I'm unable to edit it and look into remapping.

                Many thanks
