| Frankenpanel Controller Mapping's - How is YOURS done?? |
| (1/1) |

So I'm nearing the stage of wiring up my control panel, and as it is a DIY version of North Coast Customs quad cp design I thought I'd do a little prep work before I get started. I'm trying to work out the most suitable way to configure the IPAC 4. Can everyone out there who have a control panel with an IPAC 4 inside please put up their configuration settings?? Let's start the insanity! :banghead: |

As someone who is also probably going to go the NorthCoast DIY quad route, what controls did you decide to go with and roughly what did they cost? Sorry I don't have any useful information to give you on your mapping, I am newbie and looking at what others are doing. Thanks and good luck planbee!! |

Well the majority of the parts came from Groovy Game Gear.... electric ice 2 buttons, electric ice trackball, turbo twist high/low spinner with translucent white base plate for illumination. The joysticks I got from retroarcadeslive.com, though their RGB (multi) colour sticks have changed now, you can no longer control the colours as they have started using auto colour scrolling led's inside. A little mod work and I changed them to what I was after. As for the prices, it depends on your actual setup. It definitely is not necessary at all to go the added cost of illuminating everything though I spent around $1000 AUD on the control panel parts. I have a total of 53 push buttons on my control panel and I want to light them all up ??? Hope this helps... Jason |

Thanks Jason for the info. I probably won't want the extra cost of all the lights on my buttons so I will just do normal boring buttons. I am thinking about doing 4 u360s for each player and then the 7 buttons for 1 and 2 player and then the 4 buttons for 3 and 4 player unless there is a need to go more buttons for the latter. I will also have a track ball and possibly a spinner. Did you get their basic pre made kit or did you design it yourself and have them cut it to your specs? Thanks again for the info!! |

You mean, you have four sticks with six buttons each, and there are only 26 letters in the alphabet? |
