cp interface planning?

<< < (6/6)

JAZ:
I would go with real SNK sticks (www.videoconnect.com or eBay) and Druin's adapter. For me, the rotary games are just not the same without the yellow sticks and the clicking. Druin's interface obviously works fine - he has posted several positive reviews on his website. Additionally, it works with plain old MAME. You don't have to muck around with different versions just for these games.

If the Ikari games currently dont work with these alternate builds of MAME then that rules them out from the get-go anyway.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I too am interested in the above comment.  I have not found an answer with search, anyone that can help?

AFAIK, LilWolf is the only one who has tried this.  He has fairly complete comments above.

In re-reading his post, I'm not sure if he means Ikari doesn't work with the direct connection, or that it has problems, but Time Soldiers doesn't.

Translation:  He may be saying that IKARI didn't work as well as TS, but was still better than IKARI with any other interface.

But I'm trying to read between the lines of his post, and would like first-hand info.

Lilwolf:
Ikari warriors and victory road DO NOT work.

Time Soldiers DOES work (plus others).

I believe it is the ones that originally had NO for all but the current direction work and the ones with NC doesn't... or the other way around.

I haven't had a chance to play with it for ages.... And time soldiers is the game I got the SNKs for.... So I haven't looked at the drivers to see whats up.
