noob question...
« on: February 23, 2011, 08:43:21 pm »
I've seen videos on youtube where the mame cab speaks the controls to you. A button lights up and it'll say jump the next lights up and it says fire etc.
Now I've already ordered some happ led buttons as well as the led controller. I'm assuming it's software that I need to get my controls to do that.
What is the program called?

thanks in advance.

I played with that feature in LED blinky. it works, but honestly, after about, oh, 2 times, it got turned off. It's pretty annoying. I think a good Control panel viewer like CP Wizard works better.

But led blinky simply flashing what buttons and controls are used, that's kind of handy.

With the usable buttons lit up, it's not too hard to figure out what they do.

Yes, but you have to set it up that way.
