I kind of assumed that simply logging the JVS serial communications would be, you know, not enough to convert that to a DB15 plug I can use with my existing adaptors. Unless I misunderstand what you're saying, I don't see how accessing the raw datastream will solve the problem.

Alas, no. No such project seems to exist. I ended up using the JAMMA thing shown above. Free from Aliexpress! Still, not ideal.

The plate included with a new LS-32 won't fit, that's right. The LS-32 itself will, just about _any_ stick will fit, including the LS-32, if that panel is made to the original spec. You just need the appropriate plate. The 95mm mount spacing is not used anymore so you'll need to find, make...

That's the OG panel design for sure. https://gamesx.com/wiki/doku.php?id=arcade:joystick_mounts They've got a 95mm spacing on the two M4 holes, and are designed with a bent plate in mind. These panels used an LS-32 as standard, but Seimitsu doesn't make these plates anymore. Sanwa still...

Hey all. I don't want to get too deep into the weeds with this, but: 1. In 30-ish years of selling and shipping stuff the number of things that were actually permanently lost is now two, and I'm not even sure about the first one, and there's still time for this to be delivered. 2. I can't...

Well, the ground pins I mentioned ARE on the kick harness, and I did say that you could splice into the already-in-use wires, so I'm not really sure what your question is asking. The answer is 'probably, yes, unless you mean something else, then maybe.' As for the coin door, sure! You can...

Definitely don't try to get ground from the 12 Volt pins! Omigosh you have misunderstood something serious here! =D https://gamesx.com/wiki/doku.php?id=arcade:capcom_cps2_kick_connector ^ there are two ground pins near the volume pins, on 33 and 34, but any ground pin will do. If they are...

I needed one, so I made one. Only one switch because I never need to flip just one axis, and if that ever happens it's easy enough to flip one of the deflection connectors without reaching into the hurty electric death zone in the chassis. It's super convenient!

I needed it so I built it. Single switch because I never need to flip just one axis. If that ever comes up, it's easier to flip that axis now that the plugs aren't deep inside the chassis' electrical hurty death zone. Just need to mount it under the panel now. It's super convenient!

I have an 838-13683-92 board here, it looks like the same caps as the -93 board. I've put the caps list on my wiki: https://gamesx.com/wiki/doku.php?id=caps:sega-838-13683 It's a short list: 10µF/50V/125° x 2 1µF/50V/105° x 3 100µF/10V/105° x 7

Hey @GamingDoyle - Do you still have any of this kicking around? I've solved most of the puzzles so far but you've got one signal that doesn't get used. The 60 pin header on the JVS board, pin #55, labeled output 4. You tap it from the 60 pin as Sega IO 55, run it to the 12 pin button panel...

That's awesome. The current plan is a latching switch, but I may have to make some boards. Thanks nem.

OK, I fired it up and tested it. The 18 Wheeler shifter is: P2 Up: high P2 Dn: low P2 DN & LT: reverse So the way the project detailed on this page is made, there's no way to get low gear in 18 Wheeler, you only get Reverse or High. I've never played it, but somehow this seems... un good...

Looks like I might have to do it that way. Dragging out the Naomi and all the associated parts is a lot of effort, I figured someone might have the answer handy. =)

Thank you. I have this diagram already, and it's part of the reason I was confused. You say it's those pins on the 60p connector but the diagram shows a 40-pin and a 34-pin, not a 60. On the 60-pin standard connector on most JVS boards, these three pins correspond to: 27 1P Button 1 28 2P...
