Suggestions for snes9x keyboard controls for FE4?

[Platysaur]

Hey guys, I'm going to play Genealogy of the Holy War with my keyboard. Is there a particularly effective or easy set of keybindings I can see for my keyboard to play the game with?

What keyboard layout are you using? I used a qwerty keyboard. I did X=s, Y=a, A=x, Z=c, L=D, R=c D-pad= arrow keys, start = enter, and i don't remember what I maped select to (its functionality of calling up the main menu is duplicated by pressing A on any empty square, so I never used it). Snes9x also maps emulator functions to keyboard keys (use the "hotkeys" menu for this. I maped space to fast forward. I highly recomend doing that, because fe4 can be slow sometimes, especialy in the arena.) Also make sure that you don't map any emulator hotkeys to the same key as an actual button. All this being said, literally the only time in this game that input prompness matters is quiting/changing weapons in the arena. Pick any layout you want that you can remember.

Thanks, I'll give it a go. My layout is also qwerty.

This is what I personally use with snes9x:

A -> A
B -> S
Z -> Y
X -> X
L -> E
R -> R
D-pad -> arrows
Start ->Enter
Select ->Shift
Fast forward -> Tab

FYI, there was a typo there, I meant B=z, not "Z=c" (which makes no sense)
