4 - Player Arcade using 2 x Mini Ipac
(1/1)
viper221w:
Hi All,
I am in the process of building my first ever arcade system, my arcade is a 4 - player system and uses two mini-ipac's for the wiring of the controls.
I am currently at the stage now where I am using Winipac and have a slight problem, I have designed my 4 - player control panel in WinIpac but don't see the Player 3 & Player 4 connections illuminated in the ipac connection tab. This means I currently only get player 1 & 2.
Is there a trick to get two mini-ipacs configured, I wish to change some of the control mappings on the two mini-ipacs so it will work more smoothly with my emulators.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Paul

You need a 4 player Ipac (Ipac-4) to use the software that way...
You have two mini Ipacs... both of which have a player 1 & player 2.

Yeah, I don't think the software is going to work in that config. I've got two minipacs on my four player panel too. I program each one at a time but I don't use the WinIPAC software. I'm pretty sure the guy who runs Turnarcades uses two minipacs in has 4 player panels. Maybe see how he programs them?
mphuie:
It looks like you can reprogram the keys. Why not plug your 2nd one in then remap the keys to the MAME 3rd and 4th player config? I don't think it matters if the config software correctly detects which one is which. Just config them each separately.
