I have an Ultimate I/O in my cab which I have mostly mapped to the standard MAME defaults. However, I have added some games to my cab that don't use that MAME setup.
I created a second .ipc file and I tried to create a .bat file that I could use with launchbox where it'd load the new profile, and then switch back on exit. However it seems like when you open a new ipc file, it doesn't actually program to the board unless you manually click 'Force Reconfigure' in the file menu for WinPac, so the control mappings never actually change
the bat file I have made is super simple:
@echo off
call "C:\Program Files (x86)\WinIPAC V2\WinIPAC.exe" "C:\Desktop\bishi.ipc"
exit 0
and then I have another one to open on exit that loads default.ipc.
My knowledge of creating bat files is ridiculously basic - does anybody know of a way to do what I am trying to achive, or if there is a way to incorporate the File>Force Board Reconfigure command into the bat file?
Cheers!
