iPac woes
(1/6) > >>
MameMe:
I added 2 extra buttons to my control panel, one purple and one yellow.  The purple was added so that I could 'Pause' the game I was playing, and yellow was added to 'Exit' back to the Mamewah screen.

Okay so the letter "P" pauses and "Esc" key escapes if I use a keyboard right? Right.  So I connected the purple button to my ipac's Player 1 button 7.  I connected the yellow button to Player 2's button 7.  I connected to #7 because I only have 6 buttons per player.

Okay so how do I change my ipac/mamewah/mame or whatever I need to change to do what I need to do?  Please I'm soo close to finishing the CP.  Btw it took me 2 hours to wire and it worked on the first try..wahoo  Except I can't figure out this last problem.
crashwg:
you need to change a jumper on the I-pac, says something like mame/alt???

you will also need the program found at http://www.ultimarc.com/download.html

Good luck

The default MAME setting on the I-PAC and other Ultimarc encoders is SHIFT+PLAYER 2 START for ESC and SHIFT+PLAYER 1 DOWN for pause (SHIFT being PLAYER 1 START).  If you want to change them to something else you will have to use the ALT jumper setting and program the encoder with the WinIPAC software.

Cool I always wanted to know how to pause the game with an IPac but never got around to asking anyone.

The default ipac mappings suck for many reasons.  Anyway, the default mappings are located either int he instrucitons or the FAQ of the IPAC on ultimarc.com.
