Great job. My mate has a Wrestlefest arcade which i believe is JAMMA and not JAMMA+. He wants to mame this cabinet. I think i have everything in my head for what i need to do:
PC - winxp or win7 - need some advice here - i think 7 nvidia 7600gt jpac The only thing i need to figure out is wrestlefest is 3 buttons and we want to turn the CP into a 6 button per player cabinet. So do i wire the extra buttons to the jpac? Or do we need a kick harness? If it is the kick harness where do you plug it into as i thought the kick harness plugs in the game PCB? |

I'd use xp, ther were some issues with 7 but they may have been fixed by now. Good luck drilling the cp out ! ps. see this in full but to answer your question: What controls does the JAMMA connector support? The JAMMA standard supports 2 players with 3 buttons per player. There is an unofficial addition to this, some cabinets wire a fourth button. Plus coin, start etc. Thats not many buttons, what about any others? Game boards which need more buttons have an auxiliary button connector which can vary in type. This is not part of the JAMMA standard. The J-PAC caters for these extra buttons by having screw terminal inputs for these extra inputs.Inputs supported directly through the JAMMA connector are:Player 1 and 2 joysticks, Player 1 and 2 buttons 1,2,3,4. Coin 1, Coin 2, Start1, Start2. Inputs supported by the screw terminals are: Player 1 and 2 buttons 4,5,6,7,8. Note that button 4 can be connected via either method as some JAMMA harnesses route this button through the connector. If you have a 4 player cabinet you can use an I-PAC2 board as well as a J-PAC and plug the I-PAC into the pass-through connector of the J-PAC. You will need to re-program the I-PAC board for correct player 3 and 4 keycodes. |

No problems,
But my biggest tip is save time and money , buy one that is already done :) Also decide what you want first. I am at one point to get another cab. Probably keep the neo geo in one player and put the mame into a two player 19" cab instead. Best thinkg about a smaller 14" screen cab is its dead easy to replace the monitor at little cost as Amiga monitors are easy to get hold off, unlike arcade monitors. |
