Long time reader, first time poster. Finally taking the plunge and building a cabinet.
Controls question:
Simple layout for 2 players.
U360 joystick, novagem buttons, and a trackball.
I read on the ultimarc website that the U360 can have up to 7 buttons wired to it. Does that mean I do not need to buy an I-PAC or KeyWiz or any other keyboard encoder? These then just USB right into the computer? Will it work for other emulators besides MAME? (I want to use Hyperspin and take advantage of other emulators like NES, Sega64, etc).
I know I will need an LED Wiz to light the buttons and an OptiPac for the trackball? Is that right?
Does the power for the LEDs in the novagems come from the LED Wiz? Or off of the U360?
Trying to get the list of equipment before buying today and any experienced help for a newbie is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
