LedBlinky Help Please

[SteveB69]

I have just set up LedBlinky & kinda have it working, well it flashes up & does stuff under Hyperspin but once I go into Mameplus nothing. Any help on the following please?

Generate LEDBlinky Input Map.

This is confusing me, can anyone point me to any samples?

Device - Ledwiz-1.

Port: Is this the Port number that the button is on on my IPac?

Port Label: What should I put here?

LED Type: As my button lights are one colour only I presume I put single?

Also LedBlinky will start up with Hyperspin but doesn't start with Mame Plus?

Do I have the configure LEDBlinky set up correctly for Mameplus?

Lastly (for now)

I have one RGB light strip in the roof of my cab which I would like permanently on one colour or even better slowly fading between colours. But also acting as part of LedBlinky animation if possible. How do I do this.

Really appreciate any help?

I think it has something to do with the controls ini file. Can't remember what though.

Are you using led wiz or PAC led64? I had to switch it from the default led wiz to the PAC led. Also you need your controls ini and colors ini. Setting the ports is like you're saying but you have to make sure the port matches the key being pressed. If player 1 button 1 is set to key A then you have to set it in led blinky also.

This is the port on the LEDWiz.

Port Label: What should I put here?

The label should be used as a reference to the button. For example, if port 1 on the LEDWiz is wired to the LED under the Player 1 Button 1 on your CP, then the label could be P1B1. You can use any labels you want.

LED Type: As my button lights are one colour only I presume I put single?

correct - if your LEDs are single color then select 'Single'.

Also LedBlinky will start up with Hyperspin but doesn't start with Mame Plus?

Do I have the configure LEDBlinky set up correctly for Mameplus?

You should not have any value in the Controller File field - set it to blank.

The Controls.ini should not be 'mame.ini'. You need to download a valid Controls.ini. LEDBlinky Support Link

Other settings look fine.

Lastly (for now)

I have one RGB light strip in the roof of my cab which I would like permanently on one colour or even better slowly fading between colours. But also acting as part of LedBlinky animation if possible. How do I do this.

This would require wiring the RGB light strip to a secondary LED controller (LEDWiz) and configuring it for Cabinet LEDs in the LEDBlinky setup. The LEDBlinky documentation explains how to do this.

Really appreciate any help?

Have done everything as above but still nothing happening in Mame. I'm running Mame32 Plus! Plus 0.119.

Is there somewhere within this that I should point towards the ledblinky directory as can't find anything?

Assuming you are running MAME through Hyperspin (Hence your post here), you need to also go into HyperHQ.exe and select the "Main Settings" and the the "Tools" tab. Then check off the LEDBlinky box and then point to where LEDBliny.exe is installed.

The last entry for your Control.s.ini is incorrect. Go here http://controls.arcadecontrols.com/controls/controls_dat.php and download the proper controls.ini file (match it to your version of MAME - or as close as possible) and put it into the root of your LEDBLinky.exe. Point to it in your config menu. You do not need to activate the colours.ini (Optional) or the Controls File (Optional) for it to work.
