  1. i just got a bluetooth headset and when i connect it to arcade machine it has this annoying popup saying establishing connection then it goes but if i want to use this headset during a game it cuts the game out when the popup takes over, i can turn it off without problems there must be a way
  2. if you want to download classic game commersials without registering with fileplanet and paying for it here is another link for a different site wich requires no registration http://browse.files.filefront.com/Media%20...rowsefiles.html
  3. first off you have to get them both working in windows,, i got my 2 topguns working for a short time first of all i got the first gun to move the curser like a normal mouse and then got the second gun set up like the first but this did not move the mouse it just emidiatly move to wherever i fire at on the screen then went back to the centre (it appeared that it didnt move from the centre of the screen but it did) i dont think i had to do a lot to get it working in mame i set it up for area 51 first wich was easy start the game then press tab and set the player buttons up,, oh if i remember i had to set both guns up using the 5 mouse buttons on the guns so basicly i had mouse button 1 on the fire of gun 1 mouse button 2 on the reload button on gun 1 mouse button 3 on the fire of gun 2 mouse button 4 on the reload button of gun 2 and used the arcade machine controls mapped to the keybourd to press start and navigate throught the game this settup worked for a while for me then failed it wouldnt recognise the controllers after a while or the drivers the drivers i used were wingun I THINK let me know how u get on as i want to buy another set of guns as i think my old motherboard just had problems with the usb controllers the guns were great when they worked a lot of fun but i garantee u wont use the laser's as they are shit lol p.s i also made gun slots for them to sit in , and in the slots i put another button so when i pull the gun out to use it turns off all the lighted buttons and stuff (its a LIGHT gun and light interfere's with it a lot) a good tip for you to do
  4. i had the same problem where it only showed about 200 roms when i had a hell of a lot more,, the answer is in the settings of mame if i remember correctly,, try rescanning the romset and in gameex enable show all roms i think thats what i done
  5. whats the best way to put all my dos games on my cab and can i keep them zipped (would make things a lot tidyer) and more inportantly how does gameex get on with it thx
  6. ive heard of xpadder but never used it i'll check it out cheers
  7. hi guys is there software out there that will let me add an extra gamepad to my arcade machine ,, basicly my controlls are driven by 4 gamepads rewired to buttons and sticks is there a way i can ad a usb gamepad and it acts as the same controller as player 1's gamepad, for instance if you plug in 2 usb keyboards they will act as the same so i can have optional gamepads instead of sticks, but without reconfiguring any emulator,, tricky question i know but ive been wondering for a while
  8. well ive already built my cab,, im just interested in getting new things, like changing my guns,, a couple more buttons,, and just see whats new to buy
  9. i never thought of going directly to HAPP its quite a big site

    Off topic

    there is a comedy sketch of that ive seen,, just cant think who done it lol
  18. a game will come up that i like and apparently you press button 6 to play it , but that rarely works, cant we have an option in the config menu to enable the esc button to end screensaver and any other button pressed will allow you to continue playing the game or if you dont want to add this feature is there a way i could manually change it myself , like in the ini files or something gerble1000
  19. well i would love to help but i only dabbled in c++ self taught ive made a small game and an annoying virus (good virus lol) well im going to step out of this chat before i make myself sound like more of a noob lol
  20. i dont know anything about logic ive done c++ and visuall basic but it sounds like a simple program if you understand what is written (i dont but im drunk lol) i'll take another look in morning the 1 think ive learned from programming is that there all very similer in code, basicly i know this dont help but i do understand how hard it is to understand written instructions, i had to make a simple paintshop program,but written on paper made me think they wanted paintshop pro, well im off to bed
  21. point made lol
  22. i like the way u think lol reminds me of me i actually went to pc worls and bought 4 gamepads £10 each 13 buttons on each took them apart and wired the buttons to the terminals easy but i settled for 9 buttons plus a start button,, BUT i am redoing the controll centre because i want more buttons,,i worked around the dreamcast as that needs like 13-14 buttons,, the d-pad i wired to the buttons example + +u+ L d r +++ i tend to cope with that i have thought of adding removable controllers, here is my arcade machine old picture ive actually got guns now and a motorise keyboard that comes out the side (very noisy lol) and u definatly want to rewire a keybourd controller for extra buttons i got f5 f7 q z esc enter f5 because most emulators have that has save state and f7 is load state verry usefull feature esc to exit all emulators and return back to gameex enter for pc games as with q and z there just extra buttons that i set into the config menu on each game,,,(definatly worth having) the power button is basicly the on off button on my pc and i have put colored fans in it now it got very hot any problems with anything m8 give us a shout gerble1000
  23. wow u really dont like tosec lol
  24. i thought of doing that myself lol the only way i could figure of doing it is have a batch file for each rom , so instead of launching the rom you launch the batch file wich will replace the config,ini file in the emulator with a different one wich has the controlls u want before launching the game,, problem being is you will have to make a batch for each rom (ouch) and secondly gameex probably would exit strait after the batch file exits wich would be emidiatly,, as gameex would assume that the batch file is the game and as the script ends it would think the game ends,, im sure there is a way around this,,but you got to think is it worth it, i have made my own arcade machine and im running lots of emulators including,, dreamcast saturn snes nes mastersystem gamegear megadrive playstation 1 n64 bameboy \ advanced 32x and many more and controlls have never been a problem as when you set the controlls for the emulator it is the same for all the roms ,,so u pretty much know the controlls for all the roms after a few games,, hopes this helps m8
  25. y do u all hate tosec :blink:
