Mala LEDWizard v1.0 Released

(1/8) > >>

LEDWizard Overview:
LEDWizard allows you to create LEDWiz CFG files.  These CFG files can be used with Mala for full LEDWiz RGB support.  Combined with the power of the Mala LEDWiz Plugin and Controls.Dat, you can:

* Light up your controls in any RGB color by using the LEDWiz intensity levels
* Light up your controls as you scroll through game lists in Mala
* Light up your game specific controls when you launch a game in MAME
* Set default lighting schemes for other emulators as well
* Much more to come...  Including attract mode, cfg batch generation, 640x480 support, etc.
Release Information:

* Version 1 of the LEDWizard is now available.  It requires .NET to run at this time - I am working to change this.
* Download it here: http://mala.arcadezentrum.com/plugins.html.
Thanks to swindus and loadman for their help.

I would love to hear your feedback and suggestions.

P.S.  I started this new thread since the first announcement got a bit sidetracked. ;)

LOADMAN's MaLa tip of the day:

If you want the Leds on your LedWiz (and/or other Plug-in) to update 'on the fly' while your scroll down through your game list then ensure in gui-options-exceptions that the Gamestart event checkbox is ticked. (Note: This may slow down list scrolling on older PC's)

Do not mistake this for the LCD & LED Checkbox as this is for MaLa Hardware not a un-modded LedWiz

After all this programming over the past few weeks, I finally got a chance to actually use the Mala LEDWiz plugin in my cab.

Click here for a video of my cab (and RGB buttons) in action.

And - hey - no wisecracks about my scrawny arms.  That's my 5 year old navigating the controls.  ;D

VERY COOL!

These are really making me want to get rid of my hot swap control panel just to add the lights!  VERY VERY COOL!

btw, would there be any way on a cocktail table to seperate the horizontal / vertical games player 1/2?  I'm considering building a 3 sided cocktail table (might stick with two... up in the air right now).  But I was wondering, if I did have a 3 sided (vertical 1player on left... vertical 2player on right... and horizontal 1 & 2 on the bottom).  Could I seperate it that way, any way??

At the risk of having this thread get sidetracked  :o
The answer is yes. I have a cocktail table too. You can use MaLa's ' Controller detection feature. It will rotate to the side the joystick is moved and load a gamelist applicable to that side if you want.

http://mala.arcadezentrum.com/controllerdetection.html

You can make the gamelists using filters or manually.
Note: For detection to work you need to have the joysticks on separate keys, so for a 3 sided table you probably need a I-PAC4 .

Start a new thread please if you have another Mala question.

What about about Edge's LedWizard App eh .. Nice?
