Well, no real reason to "go crazy" on the vertical control panels. There is only one vertical game I know of that uses more than 3 buttons (Mouse Trap, it has 4). Most use 2 or less. |

It sounds like you need to make a 4-player upright cab to ensure the ipac-4 is properly utilised. That's your only option. |

Something else to keep in mind. If you do go with wiring the 4 control sets up to different inputs and you don't want the ones not in use to be active while they are not in use you will have alot of configuration to do in mame to get it to work like you want it to. From that point of view it would be much easier to double up the wiring... |

--- Quote ---and you don't want the ones not in use to be active while they are not in use you will --- End quote --- Whaa? If you double up the wiring then basically you can use say control 1 and control 3 for player 1. So if you've got all these young kids around you don't want them to be able to stuff up your game when they are playing with the other controls. I would wire 4 controls to the different spots on the ipac4. Then when they move the other joysticks or push the other buttons it will have no effect on your game. Configuration is very easy to do using the ctrlr folders. |

So, Are you saying it would be easy to have all the vertical games use the 1st and 2nd player controls on each side of the cabinet, but on horizontal games have the 1st and 2nd controls be the two(3&4) on the third control panel box. I've just started to play around with mamewah and don't no too much about setting up multiple games with the same inputs. Can you not create a list of certain games that use the same inputs(2 seperate folders for vertical and horizontal games)? |
