Daniel has been fantastic helping me out via emails, i bought his plans and built the exact same unit and he still continues to help me some 10 months later. thanks for this video mate it goes hand in hand with your advice..

Thank you for uploading this video again! I couldnt find it for a while.

Very cool ;) I'm currently rewiring my ipac and doing backups to all my arcades. lots of work.. ;)

Thank you Daniel !!!!!! Great Job, great Cabinet, great Video !

Awesome tutorial ! 👍

Very informative Daniel, now im sure i can do this, however, you need to keep pay attention or you get confused though, I think if you would have a complete map of your actual board there, with the corresponding keyboard mapping, instead of separate pdfs with parts of the mapping. However not every board you make is the same off course. But i enjoyed the video, always catches my attention and i get excited when i see you got a new video out. So keep them coming! groetjes!

Amazing tutorial, but you answered my most upsetting question throughout this whole process with this video! What the heck is that blue drink he's drinking, I kept thinking! And low and behold, you state what it is you're drinking! @ 6:40! Haha, amazing! Here, have a like! :)

Great job !

Merci beaucoup ... j'adore votre travail !

Sei il top!

Daniel is the best.

Nice pnbel, but should keep the control panel simple, having that flight stick on the panel makes it look like a Frankenstein panel. There is something to be said about streamlining, less is sometimes more.

Awesome! You mentioned you use Chris Shaws drives, do you know if it’s possible to connect a Xarcade2Tv cabinet to a NAS storing Shaws 48TB drives?

I’m going this route as well…question: When using two Ultimarc Ultimate I/O boards with Mister, do they show up in the Mister control configuration menu as separate PID’s? Presently, Mister seems to have a problem recognizing more than one PID at a given time (I.e. keyboard (IPAC) + USB joystick).

Daniel this is a great video. Do you have the second video where you configure the second board? Thanks

Hi Daniel, I love your control boards with no visible screws. What size is the wood and laminate to allow the trim to cover them both? If I go with standard dimension the trim would not cover the wood board and laminate top.

Glad to know you weren't drinking window cleaner. Nothing like a little Windex to wake you up in the morning, eh? :)

Does the ipac work with xbox series X?

Hi Daniel, can you assign player 3 and 1 on the ultimate IO as player 1 and 2 . And then 2 and 4 on the other or do you have to configure as you video . Thanks

Awesome video again! Great help for us newbies. One question though, you do not seem to mention what kind of software you use in the cabinets you build. Mainly windows OS with hyperspin, or do you use game elf or pandora box also sometimes?

​@TheDanielSpies ​I have 2 ipac ultimate IO controllers, when I was setting up the LED blinky I only had one ipac connected to map all the buttons to LED blinky. However when I tried to do the other ipac controller (unplugging the one I already did) led blinky wizards states that it's already mapped and that it will wipe the setup if I continued. Any idea how I can make led blinky map both ipacs without overwriting the other? Or create a tutorial video that will help others in my situation. Any help is appreciated.

Do you know if the firmware for a second board is needed if you are using 1 Ultimate I/O board and 1 PACLed64 board from ultimarc?

Hello Daniel, can this same setup be done with one ultimate IO and one ipac mini?

Which IO board do the pinball buttons plug into? Does it matter?

I would like to make a new botton box for my Farm Simulator Game as i've built a cockpit with 80+ buttons[ i've got Pictures]. Would you use the I-Pac Ultimate. i'm using 80+ 5v Led Buttons has 5 cables coming from it Power, Ground, Common Pin, Normal Closed Pin, Normal Open Pin or what would you recommend. the buttons are 19mm, i dont thing they have built in resistors, i can have the LED ring on all the time or off, when LED off you press the button and the LED Ring lights up. i've got it wired up to 4 x 20 output basic arcade encoder but when pluged into the computer only 5 out of the 8 outputs sections working [ it must be a game thing,when i fiddle about you get it to work but in different 5 Section 1-5, 8-4, 2-6]. the encoder has 2 x 10 led outputs for the switches. would the I-Pac Ultimate be best and if so who would you wire it up. can you use the RGB wires for three switches and the negitive on to a daisy chain. The power cable would daisy chain to all three switches. What wiring harnesses would we require to do the job are you on face book Thanks Kevin

Hi Daniel! First of all my huge Respect to your work and to your Chanel! I really love your work and it inspired me to build my own cabinet for my Self. Do you have any tips how to Start? How to draw a plan of the cabinet? Is it better to go with a windows PC or a raspberry pi? Is it possible to use the i-pac ultimate also on a playstation 4/5? I. Hope i dont ask to much 🫣 Best greetings from Vienna

Can I use a pacled64 with the ultimate IO to extend the number of rgb buttons.. I I have 38 but can only use 32 on my Ultimate

Is it possible to just use player 1 and 2 ports on both ipacs to run all 4 players if you're not using rgb buttons? As I want to use a 6 button layout for players 3 and 4 and already have the 1 and 2 player wiring for both ipacs?

Wondering what you have mapped and configured to the stream deck buttons

If you wanna play on a real game console just how your build is already right now. Place your arcade on dinput mode. You also need a Titan 1 attached to the game console and the USB cord that comes with the Titan connected to the pc. Turn on the Gtuner software for Titan 1. Go to tools, look for device. Place the "output" on the game console you have. So if you have Nintendo switch. You put the output on Nintendo switch. Click close, then open "Max Aim DI" go to Direct input. Look for your IPAC controller that's in dinput mode. Go to device monitor to confirm controller is working correctly. After you found your controller. You must map the arcade buttons to the game controller layout. Save the layout you mapped by click on export. Import will load the profile whenever you need it. After you completely mapped controller, you can start gaming on your arcade system to real game console. Note ....PC must be running at all times with Max Aim DI running all the time. Also .....this method only allows 1 player to work. The hard truth is.... zero delay encoders are better than 1 IPAC. If you wanted true 4 player gaming on real game consoles. You would use a combination of 4 zero delay encoders and 4 Titan 1 adapters. The setup will be different from the first method I told you. You would map out each zero delay encoders with 4 Titan 1 one by one with xmapper instead of max Aim di so you don't have to keep the PC running 24/7. After you programmed all 4 Titan 1. Stick all the Titan 1 inside the game console. Then stick all 4 zero delay encoders USB cord inside the game console. You don't need the program cord for the Titan 1 anymore. Just the zero delay encoder cords. If you can offered it, go with 4 Titan 1 and 4 zero delay encoders. Right now you with the rig you have can only program 1 player for real game console.

Hi, Daniël. Can you provide the link to the control panel button mapping images? Can't tell if they are on Ultimarc's site or some other site. Thanks, Nick.

Are these key codes only for hyperspin or do they work for retropie as well? As I can't seem to find all the key codes for retropie 4 player anywhere 😔

this is great but i wonder how to do this with a raspberry pi instead of a pc

Do you sell plans to your builds?

I have alot of questions. As you know I have the stream deck, raspberry pi 4, I pac 4, and the super starter kit uno r3 project. With that said make a video on what I can do with those 4 things please 🙏.

Do you sell custom control panels?

Is your email listed somewhere? I'm not seeing it.

I'm gonna attempt to build one myself....

Long story short, it doesn't matter at all how its wired up as long as you assign the correct keys in Winpac?

Hello. Once again awesome stuff. I sent you emails about a custom build. Hopefully you will be able to make me something. :)). Sorry I’m nagging. Please don’t be mad at me. Lol.
