Notes -
My arcade cabinet build mostly works. I have everything hooked up and running fine with one player. But when I try to use the second set of controls for player two, bupkiss. I'm nearly positive it's some whacky software or configuration problem. I just have to spend some time looking at logs to troubleshoot. (this, unfortunately, feels far too close to my day job -- lol)
I have to say that one of my favorite games, 1942, is way better played with a joystick than it is with gamepad! Just as God intended.
I had time to attack the issue today. I bought the MiSTer FPGA and Jammix on eBay, so someone had previously set it up. Maybe the biggest mistake I made was not redoing the setup myself... the issue was a rogue newline in a config file. Removing that fixed the whole thing toot sweet.
At this point, there's nothing between now and applying finish to the whole thing. Though I want to invite my brother over to have a play on it before I take a bunch of it apart for the staining process.
