iPac woes

Pages: (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

microwrx:

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.

SirPoonga:

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.
