I'm looking to buy two ultimarc U360 sticks for my MAME cabinet. Each stick can support 8 buttons: 6 action, 1 coin and 1 start. Am I going to be able to pause/quit with this setup without using a keyboard? The wiki said I can use a shift function, but was fairly vague about how to actually do it. Does the U360 support something like holding down Player Start and hitting Button 1 to pause, Button 2 to escape, etc? Will I need to get a 3rd controller to handle admin functions? |

MAME can use 2 button combo for mapping. Howover you could do use same button for both start as well credits, so you have 2 buttons left for quit and pause (one from each joystick)..... |

Thanks. ;D |

Also, from Ultimarc's website: "The new shift button functionality works like this: Button 8 is the shift button This button has its normal function, unchanged In addition to its normal function, when held down, it will activate "virtual buttons" 9-15. Any other buttons pressed will register as 9-15 instead of 1-7. In MAME you might wish to configure, for example, button 9 as "coin". Then holding button 8 and pressing button 1 will generate the "coin" signal. You can test all button functions by going to Control Panel, Game Controllers, Properties." |

Heh, I feel like a boob now. I knew I read something to that effect, but when I went back to the information page I couldn't find it. It's on the install page. :o |
