Thanks for your reply Tom.

: Depending on the style of your Dynamo, this is real easy, you can get a *new* panel for it that's already for SF2. (which reminds me I need to email Dynamo and see if I can get a new panel for my HS-5 style cab, instead of having to get one on Ebay)

My cab is an old one, HS-1 or 2 I think. If I can get a new one that would be great, but if not, I was thinking of making one as a sorta add-on to the cabinte (not using the metal panel)

: : 2) What interface is best? IPAC, KE72, PSX through parallel port?
: Depends on what you want, if you're going to have PSX in the cab too, then interfacing the pads is best. If you don't have many buttons and don't plan on using an arcade trackball, then the Ipac is probably what you want. If you have a four player panel, or plan on adding an arcade trackball KE-72 is worthwhile.

Looks like the IPAC will do what I want. I will probably use a PC track ball, as there is not a ton of space on the control panel.

: : 5) is there a way to hook up the TV out to the arcade moniter instead of going from VGA?

: Not currently.

Darn ;) guess I do the PC2Jamma wiring... not a big deal, but woulda been eaiser.

I can't wait to get this done :D.. off to the happs website to order some parts!

Thanks!
