Your 2P CP, how and WHY?
tore-:
I'm about to build my first CP ever, I've been thinking of some ways to put it all up.
But, I've seen two main ways to put up the buttons:
stick123
456
and
stick135
246
What did you use, and most importanly, WHY?
PS: 1 equals 1SW1 and 2 is 1SW2 and soforth of couse...
Tiger-Heli:
Search for button layout in the forum, this gets asked alot.
Your second example looks awkward.
I have seen
1 2 3
4 5 6
(Better for Street Fighter, awkward for classic two or three button games b/c you have to reach over the lower buttons.)
4 5 6
1 2 3
(Better for classics)
Either of the above can work for all games by either mapping the SF or the non-SF games to the appropriate setup in MAME.
The neo-geo games used 4 buttons, so you will also see a thumb button sharing one of the buttons in the unused (upper or lower rows), or a very practical (but requires a wider panel) option is:
1 2 3 4
4 5 6
or
4 5 6
1 2 3 4
FWIW

Never looked at it that way, thanks alot. If any other user here have some views of this please feel free!

From what I've read, that's one of the Atomiswave default setups.
