krazyscotsman Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 I have a question and a request. Hyperspin will be running in an arcade cabinet with arcade controls (joysticks, buttons, spinner, trackball), an X-Box 360 controller, and 2x light guns. Several systems I have configured to use X-Box 360 controller as these systems "feel" better with the controller such as SNES or the NEC systems. What I would like to do is when a user selects a system say SNES something notifies the user to use the X-Box 360 controller for the system / game. This is especially true with some of the PC Games and TTX games where I have tried to stay true to the arcade feel by using the arcade stick and buttons but other systems either don't function that way or it's not at all accurate to response and used 360. Is it possible to splash some kind of message or notes for a system either as a transition or something to alert the person what controllers are used and if there's anything special that needs to be configured? Thanks.
krazyscotsman Posted February 18, 2015 Author Posted February 18, 2015 OK. Thanks for the input. I was thinking that might be the way to do it. But I wasn't sure if there was a better cleaner way. Thanks.
32assassin Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 you can also modify your main menu theme for that system. add little controller decal to the theme.
Styphelus Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Or add the controller to the bezel (if you use one).
krazyscotsman Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 Thanks everyone for your input. I'm probably going to either put a controller icon on the themes and or add to the fade. I have my daughter and her friends using the cabinet (teenagers). And it will just save me a lot of complaints of it's not working in the future! Thanks for your input.
