New stumbling block .. ..

Posted by Acur8 on October 26, 1999 at 23:20:48:

Hi all..

Going great guns with the project. I have the snes controllers all wired up and tested + works great!

I have completed the keyboard hack that will provide the extra functions for the menus etc, but I havent
wired it up yet (maybe tonight). The Jamma fingerboard is all done and soon to be all tested. :)

anyway ..

I have recently discovered that the cps1patch center had 'patched' Slammasters/MBduo for Mame / Callus -
ie: they had got rid of the graphics protection. Now to me this is great news ! I have been waiting for
what seems like forever for this game to be working. :)

.. After applying the patches as per instructions .. Slammasters/Mbduo 'sortof' works in Mame. :( ..
still glitchy.

So I decided to add Callus to my current ArcadeOS setup so that there would now be 3 emu's (MAME , Raine
and now Callus) - > with Callus just to play Slammasters/MBDuo.

Now this is where the tricky part comes in ..

Callus has the credit / start config (using -altkey) at : 1-2-3-4 St, 5-6-7-8 Cr.

My config for the cabinet is : 1-2 St, 3-4 Cr. (as per Mame) ..

now looking in the Callus readme there is :

-remapbut
: Remaps buttons for
-setkey

: Sets the keyboard scancodes for

OK .. now, I have -snespad1 (+2) set under the controller type in
callus.ini .. so I assume that the snes pads will be ok for the controlls ..
but what I want to do is have the kayboard Start and Coin buttons match mine.

I will be rectricted to 2 players only but thats ok.

So using the above/your info, how do/can I do it?

If I could gat Slam/MBduo working in Mame then all is ok, but I have had no luck so far.


please help if you have the info!

Thanks in advance!
