Led blink buttons 5&6
« on: September 05, 2017, 08:14:52 am »
Hi all, hope someone can help with this post as I'm at my wits end.
Have a 2 player 6 button layout using a pacled64 and ledblinky with hyperspin on win 7 64bit. When using the led blinky tests, config etc. all the leds light fine. As soon as I launch any emulator my player 2 5 and 6 buttons go out. Have read a lot of posts about mame, but this is all of the emulators. Strange thing tho when I launch the jukebox with audio anims the only buttons that do the disco are 5&6 the rest just light white.. spent last night installing launchbox  to see if that would help, but does exactly the same thing.  Any help would be appreciated before I finally give up, or smash my head against the wall in frustration. Lol.
Thanks  in advance soul assassin.

It will probably be to do with LED blinky and the options set so look through them.
Are they being disabled because they are not in use? Are your button map/ids correct? Etc.

Hi thanks for the reply, I'll check through again today and see if I can find anything wrong, possibly missed something during my frustration. Lol. I'll report back.
Thanks Soul. :)

The colours are again set by blinky in the config.
They are set on a emu by emu basis or over written on a game by game basis.

All sorted! Emailed Arzoo in the end. Thanks Arzoo!!! Had my control.ini where my colour.ini should be and colour where control should be. Totally obvious mistake but got so tied up with checking the ini and cfg  files never even crossed my mind to check the program. Lol. Just goes to show, always check the obvious. Anyway thanks everyone, I've got gaming to do!!
