Ahh, ok. Are you sure that I don't need 7 buttons per player for any games? My button layout is like this: x x x x x x x Should i make it: 1 2 3 4 4 5 6 or... 6 5 4 3 3 2 1 Thanks for the help! As long as there are no games requiring 7 buttons I'll be fine. I do want to hookup a dreamcast in the future, but I can wire two buttons to one terminal for the I-PAC, and then wire it as a unique button the dreamcast, right? Thanks! |

You have the following options: 1) Wire the extra 2 buttons to the Opti-pac and set MAME up to use Mouse button 0 and Mouse Button 1 for the Admin functions. 2) Combine button 7 as mentioned above. 3) Wire the I-PAC to activate the shift function with a single button press - this can be done with a Resistor/Capacitor circuit. Andy had a diagram somewhere on ultimarc.com, but I can't find it now. I'm also not sure if you can wire more than one button this way. You could E-mail Andy about it, if this interests you, though. |

you also dont nessesarily need 4 admin buttons. Most of the admit features can be shift input with combinations of player1 button and joystick. |
