GOOD IDEA! The Diagonals setting should work nicely as I have the player 3 & 4 joysticks rotated at exactly 45 degrees. You would just need to map it in Mame the first time you play. --- End quote --- I just started fooling around with placing the sticks in line with one another and on a 45 degree angle from one another so that the 49ways can be reprogrammed for dual SMASH TV setup Does this look too goofy? This is just "eyeballed" right now. Once we get a good layout I'll measure it more precisely. |

I notice some people have 3 buttons above their TB...isn't this awkward for playing games...why not just use the player 1 buttons? Is there something I'm missing?? |

And then even then I'd be concerned that it wouldn't work. The problem is the standard wing formation means that "UP" for player 4 is not parallel to players 2's "UP". Could you imagine playing Smash TV and pressing both controllers the same physical direction and ending up with two different directions in the game? I'm not sure you can even map the controls, in MAME, to fix this since "UP" would actually be an angle (two microswitches contacting). Which is harder to hit than a normal "UP". Not to mention that the feel would just be all wrong. I'd still like to hear from Franco on whether he's mapped his cabinet up for 2 player Smash TV. Joseph Elwell. |
