Great work guys! I was just about to suggest support for admin buttons and "always stay lit", but just realised you already got it
So how does the FLASH-N-SPEAK work?? It's flashing the button and speaking all at the same time correct?YES -- Hold ESC if you want to skip
The EZ-RGB can you pick how you have it wired up? I think I wired mine backwards.It's a tool that makes set-up quicker if you have wired in sequence (which is common) Like 1R2G3B 4R5G6B etc... But don't worry you can turn Easy RGB off and allocate it any way you have it wired
How does renaming the admin buttons work?You will have to try it and find out
Guys - Excellent Job :cheers:
One suggestion - it would be cool if the config app lit the LED on the fly as you changed the input value (the way it works for the intensity slider). This would make it real easy to see which LED is wired to which port.
I can just never remember which ports are wired to which LEDs. That's because my EI buttons are all wired with the Blue to one device and the Red/Green to the other. In retrospect, this was a really bad idea - but my thinking was that I wouldn't be able to animate across devices, so this way I can at least sequence all the buttons in Blue. In fact, it was this bizarre wiring design that motivated me to create the LEDBlinky - it's the only LED-Wiz driver that can handle my dumb design. ::)Guys - Excellent Job :cheers:

yeah.. Nice Idea.
* As you now know the way it works now as is as soon as you allocate a LED it stays lit at the intesity you set.
* But your Idea has merit (Just having the selected Led lit)
Maybe have both with a Button to change Modes?
Eg
1) All Allocated Leds on
2) Only Selected LEDS on :dunno
I'm at work so I can't test, but I have been reading the differences between the two plug-ins. One question, I set up my NEO-GEO driver through Mame to use the bottom 4 buttons on my CP. This plugin will work since I am not doing an individual game mapping right?
Thanks for all your hard work.
question, how do I make it speak the button actions? It speaks the game when launched but not the button actions?
suggestion, for idiots like me, I wired my LEDwizs backwards. For me BLUE is 1, GREEN is 2 and RED is 3. Anyway to make the EZRGB able to flip so I could use it in the future?
I got it hooked up and I used the ledwiz configurator but when I start Mala it tells me that "file not found" Even though it properly lights the controls for the games.What the? what excatly is the message?
It would be cool if the configuration could be accessed within Mala, like the gamelist and layout editorsTrust me that won't happen. ;) Only MaLa hardware or a Mod-ded LedWiz will be nativley supported by MaLa. Having said that operation via a Plug-in is pain-less ;D I'm sure it's something simple
I'm also having trouble getting the attract mode to start.Attract mode isn't triggered the same way as when you had your Led-Wiz modded.

it doesnt play my start up videoThis could be a Bug with RC9 videos. :( see post here (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=64604.msg648471#msg648471)
then in a small dialog box that says "Mala" at the top it reads:
"The file couldnt be read"
I hit enter and then everything is fine
My leds are lit properly. Is there a directory path I need to set for the lwa files? if so which ini do I set it at?No just make sure the lwa forlder with the lwa files in it is in the plugin folder (see pic)
As you watch this clip, imagine a computer voice speaking "Hook left" then "Hook Right". :laugh:

Edge, Love your work but you need to set-up a better MaLa layout. Your Forum pic uses the boring MaLa default layout and these vids show you with the 'Blue' layout but without any Picture snap or Videos in the frame. Don't make me come over there :timebomb:
should I try Mala v1.0 RC8?
When using the flash and speak option the game starts, my speach plugin says the name of the game and then the ledwiz plugin says the name of the game again but not the name of the controls and the controls dont flash.Dude,
I really want to get the attract modes working. This is probably the most important to me

Don't use the speech plug-in and led-wiz option of the together or when you get it working it will say the game name twiceQuoteI really want to get the attract modes working. This is probably the most important to me
Have you tried it on another PC yet? I remember going down a similar road with you before Timoe ad wasn't the cause that you scalled down win xp on your cab?
can you hook me up with Mala RC8? I deleted my self extracting file when I got RC9.
Heres some more info on my situation.
The first time I start mala after a reboot - it tells me that it cant find ledwiz.cfg. After I quit mala and restart mala it finds it.
It even plays the "ramp up.lwa" sequence (I'm not sure that is really a .lwa, maybe just an effect?)
then loads mala. I removed the speech plugin but it still doesnt play the flash and speak or the attract modes.
If I start windows (not in a shell) and then directly click the mala.exe - it works, the leds ramp up and flash.
still no attract mode though. :notworthy:
I have 3 LEDwiz's and 6 buttons are for player 3 and 6 button are for player 4 but actually mapped to player 1 and 2 will this plugin not show them lit? I have a 3 sided cocktail table and want the buttons lit but they don't light up the 3rd panel buttons. They are mapped the same as the two end panels, LCTRL, LALT, SHIFT, SPACE etc.So really you need to allocate 'two LEDS' for each button for Player 1 and Player 2 effectively.?
Know what I mean?
Edge, you loadman and headkaze need to pm me..... I've got something I'm working on you guys might want to add support for, but I don't want to announce anything publically until I have it working and it's been tested.Any chance I can get in on the secret?
yeah, I guess so. Version 3 coming out soon :)

You are in luck... You can do it now if you manully edit the Cfg file
A Single LED example to give you an idea:
1,1,1,1,0,5,1,3,200,0,0,,1,1,1,0,0
P1_BUTTON1,1,SINGLE,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,48,0
P1_BUTTON1,1,SINGLE,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,4,48,0
P1_BUTTON2,1,SINGLE,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,40,0
P1_BUTTON2,1,SINGLE,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,6,40,0
P1_BUTTON3,1,SINGLE,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,7,48,0
P1_BUTTON3,1,SINGLE,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,8,48,0
Get it? Just copy the Player 1 and player Two Led Lines and change the LED-Wiz diveice number and LED number.
So is 1 the LEDwiz divice number and 3 the LED number and 48 the intensity?Yes :applaud:
Thanks, I do have RGB. I will try this tomorrow night and let you know. Any draw back to this? Do you know if it will affect anything else?
it worked thanks,:applaud: Maybe in Vers 2.5 if you are a good boy ;) Best Voice :dunno I like the default one as it reminds me of the sound in 80's game 'BEZERK'
I did notice that the text to speach only flashes the player one controls, anyway to make it flash player two also? and what is the best voice to use? the default sounds soso
Maybe a bug????? Does not sound like a MaLa/Plug-issue as it is dormant while game is playing. I would be looking for another explanation if I were you
I noticed playing MK that after a minute or two maybe three my lights go off on my #1 LEDwiz. Every LED that is connect to that one goes off any idea? Everything works fine when its in attract mode, does not time out.
2.5 can't wait :) Do you think 2.5 will allow me to allocate 'two LEDS' for each button so I don't have to do it manually?

Up to my good mate EDGE :P
1) I cant get the Attract mode to work. It looks like Timoe had the same problem, but I didnt see a resolution to the problem posted. Any help here?
Quick question,
I'ma firm believer in "If It Ain't Broke Don't Fix It" I am currently using and earlier version of the plugin. How hard would it be to go to this one? would I have to re-enter all the positions for the RGB lights again? and also would it read all the existing .cfg filez? Thanks :cheers:

I posted him a new build to test but I'm not sure he has tested that attract mode bit yet.. If you PM me a e-mail I can send to you and report back here please.....
