I-Pac 4 question

<< < (2/2)

Bill Mote:
I would think that it's a 2 player cab.  If you look at the start buttons they show 1 and 2 player.  They probably have the controls wired into the same connections though you wouldn't have to (see previous posts about mame key config).

My Opinion: K.I.S.S

The Ipac4 caters for up to four controllers, as you will only intend to have three panels that leaves you HEAPS of inputs.

So I would use P1 Stuff for P1 and P2 Stuff for P2 and when you add the third controller use inputs from P3 and P4 remembering that you can allocate the IPAC anyway you like quite easily via the software

You will regret doing that.  Friends can hit a button during a game and you can't take advantage of gamelist auto rotation in a FE like MaLa

That's a clever idea. Thanks.

mvolke1:
So, if I understand correctly.....


I am using four of the six buttons for players 1 and 2. I can use the extra two from players 1 and 2 to make players 3 and 4 use six buttons. Then, when I want to play fighting games from a horizontal side, I can use the players 3 and 4 to do that?

Does that sound feasable?
