Help with keyboard buttons
I just recently downloaded ZSNES and i love it. I'm having trouble on a part in chrono trigger. It says to hold down L and R and press the A button, simple enough right, except that it does not work. I've tried a bunch of different setups through the emulator itself but nothing seems to work. I've played through ten times already and had an itch to go through it again, but i can't figure out why this is happening. Does anyone have any suggestions, it would be really appreciated. I don't want to go out and get a controller either, i'd rather just do it on the keyboard. Thanks

This is a known problem.™
Map all the buttons to the same key, or use Ctrl/Alt/Shift.

This is a very common question that has been answered in the docs. Asking a question that has already been answered elsewhere (particularly when it is something that one should read first before all else) is not productive.

Suggestion: on the next ZSNES release, we put up a warning message which appears on the first time you run Chrono Trigger. It'll say "in the arris dome, when you have to press L+R+A, bind those keys to one key."Deathlike2 wrote:The fact that we have a friggen FAQ question and someone doesn't read it is just a massive failure.
Come to think of it, we should have one for FF3/6 that says, on the intros, don't be afraid to press any and all of the buttons.
<Nach> so why don't the two of you get your own room and leave us alone with this stupidity of yours?

Seriously, you COULD put up a splash screen that says "Keyboards suck, you can't mash all the keys at once, this causes problems in several games, including but not limited to Chrono Trigger, Megaman, Contra, Super Mario World, et cetera et cetera until the end of time basically every game you have to press 2 buttons at once in is in danger of glitching. This and other issues are covered in the documentation that came with your emulator, specifically in FAQ.HTM/TXT. Read it now. If your emulator did not come with documentation, please download it from zsnes.com instead of exposing yourself to an absurd virus risk by grabbing it off 1337W4r3ezr4wMZ.C0m"
But they won't read that any more than the existing nag and documentation.

Gaming keyboards exist. Some even promise to fix the keyblocking issue.
Generally, people use the keyboard because it's what they already have, they don't buy a special keyboard to use.
...
Well, until PC gamers decided keyboard and mouse was the one true input device.
But if I WERE gonna sell a ZSNES controller, it'd be a proper controller. NOT a text-input device.
