how are y'all hooking up DC with IPAC?
Frostillicus:
Apparently there are issues when you use the same set of controls with an IPAC and a Dreamcast gamepad hack. I have problems with first the DC working, then the IPAC doesn't work, but then the DC doesn't work, etc....
Does anyone have a solution to this? Or how about a success story with a different keyboard encoder? Like the keywhiz or the MK64?
I saw this thread on the newer ultimarc board...but didn't understand how to implement their suggestions for two sets of controls (for 2 players)...
Thanks... :)

I got my molex connector from bobroberts.
Get the picture ?
I-pac=male molex connector.
>>> Joystick,buttons=female molex connector.
dc interface=male molex connector.

SNAAAKE:
something like this would do.

I dont use i-pac so I am not sure how many inputs but you can always use 2x24 pin connectors(if 24 isn't enough).
I use these though.
SirPoonga:
are printer switchbox would work if that is enough pins.
