He can do a Jpac with an Ipac for players 3&4. The Ipac plugs into the Jpac.
BobA:
Yup. That is what I recommended previously or forget the whole jamma thing and go ipac4

oh wow! the help! i love you guys!
my 4 player cab is a little taken apart right now... so i guess i put the whole ipac4 thing on hold and play shooters all winter. um. and speaking about that third button... i have the holes and the buttons installed... but i just dont know what wire to connect to actually make it "button number 3". i thought i was going to be able to find it no hassle. but i guess its a little more complicated than that. either that or im just really lame.
but about the jpac... its really that easy? if i wanted... i could just connect it to the computer i have now... pop in a keyboard... configure the controls... run mame... and im totally set?

If you have an arcade monitor you will need to convert the signal from the PC to the correct frequency 15khz. As mentioned above the Arcade VGA card also from Ultimarc will do this.
