Help needed with SFIV Controls in arcade cabinet

[cleetus]

Hello everyone,

I am a long time lurker but first time poster.

I recently installed SFIV pc version on my SFII CE / MAME Cabinet using Ultimarc's latest PCI Expresss video card. It proved to be a very difficult task setting it up but I got it to work non the less. The only thing I don't like (that's where my question comes in) is there a way to use the control panel stick and buttons on the cab to control all the menus in the game and by that I mean that as it stands, I have to use the keyboard to navigate the menus and character select screen and once the fight starts, I am able to use the stick buttons on the control panel. Very annoying to say the least.

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciate it.

Cheers guys

Thank you for the reply and link, however I have tried that method and I still have the same problem.

Not sure what I am doing wrong though. My control panel buttons are all conncected to an xarcade pcb, so when I was editing the 360.ini file, I used the Xarcade sample file listed on the link but it does not work, unfortunately.

In my SFIV if the first button detected is from a keyboard, the menus will be affected to the keyboard. So try to never touch any keyboard keys , and use only gamepad keys. The menus should be controled with your joystick/pad.

I personnaly use 2 hacked gamepad and not the "keyboard hack", but i hope it will help.

Dunno what else to tell you except to re-read all the instructions and make sure you followed them to the letter.

I used the method described to get my Ipac hook up to work, but theoretically it should work for any keyboard encoder the exact same way.

I'm such a tool. After comparing files, I noticed I was off by one digit, hence as to why it wouldnt work.

Fixed it and all works well now

Thanks everyone for their help.
