Hi, my ultracade died so im changing over to Mame. Im a noob with this so im starting off small. Im using a pent. 4- 1.6 gig machine with a low end graphics card. running Windows XP on a freshly formatted harddrive. I shut off everying i could to make it as fast as possible. A friend of mine gave me Mame 32 0.59.0. with some roms. I see there are alot newer versions, but this works for now. The games run fine with a keyboard on the Wells Gardner monitor that came with the cabinet. but the controls are wacky with the joysticks. The cabbinet is wired with a jamma connector going to the usblinx interface. I have two joysticks, 7 buttons for each player(including start buttons) there is a game exit and a test button also. And one track ball. If im reading the info right on Ultimarc, the j-pac only handles 4 buttons through the plugin jamma harnes? All of my button are wired through the jamma harnes connector. My jamma connector looks the same as the one for the j-pac. Are my button wired different? Should i get the ipac 4 instead? It sounds like there is more room for expansion on the ipac 4. If things go well i might build a better rig with a modern pc. Also, i was thinking of getting the arcade vga agp card from ultimac also. my card is real old. any thoughts? and thanks for any info you have. |

You can download the USBLinx Manual from here http://bit.ly/beQa3N It includes the keyboard mapping for all of the joysticks and buttons in the UltraCade cabinet. The trackball is simply mapped as a mouse. |

You can change the default mappings in MAME to match your USBLinx. |

How's the trial coming along? Also, the Optigun doesn't have a lot of support from people who've tried to buy it but, oddly, haven't received it. Care to comment about that? |
