Great video, have only 3 days of arcade experience and am already able to build my own MAME machine with the help of these videos. Hopefully will have it all finished in about a week or 2!
Nice video! Quick question, if you don't mind? Can you skip over one or two of the grounds in a chain and pick up at a later point with the sequence... like leap frog for spacing constraints... or will it cause an issue? Thank you
I'm using a setup for a PC MAME machine, so idk if you are familiar with that sort of setup, but every key besides my first key in the ground chain has the depress issue. I triple checked my connecting in the ground terminals and they all seem fine. The cable is brand new and I have no idea why this is happening. Thanks
I hope this comment gets to you. I have a 15 year old Cocktail arcade (40 in 1). Several years ago, it started to hang up in the initialization where it gets stuck in Demo mode. The player 1 or 2 button does not work. In fact none of the buttons/joysticks work. I have troubleshot the grounding wires on the control panels (noted from a previous post) and they are all good. The voltage from the PS is good as well. Are you aware of any other issues besides the board that could be causing this? Any help would be appreciated.
Question, have you ever come across all of your buttons working when pushed normally, but when held down for a few seconds, the buttons are automatically depressing every few moments? For example, I'm in a game of Shinobi and I'm crouching behind a crate to dodge the incoming bullets. I'll be holding down my crouch key on the joystick, but every few moments it will randomly depress the button, causing my character to uncrouch for a moment. Do you know know why this would be happening?
ok i just got a new jamma cable kit and a b and 1 and 2 got ground cables but e f and 27 and 28 say ground on list but non cables wired it safe to use with cables ther or will have soder cables to them last 4 pins and ground them ?
Thanks! Great video for beginners
