Dreamcast Controllers on UNI

Post by OldFoo »

I have a Uni, and it has the PCB in the Control panel (on the left hand side, opposite side to coin mech) and its wired into the maple connectors on the front of the Naomi mainboard, Im running Capcom vs SNK 2 GD ROM version, but yet when I plugged in a known good DC controller with offical Sega VMU it does nothing



just curious what else I need to do to get this working, as interested what this offers, as I know the VMU works for certain games, there is one option in the game Test Mode

C-PANEL USE that I cannot change, is this tied to the VMU/DC Controller ??



anyhelp would be great

thanks

update on mine, still nothing on Capcom vs SNK 2 (this was booted off the original disc) but then switched out to net dimm, booted Power Stone 2, and the VMU came alive! not really sure what Im expecting if it does work, can you use a controller? or just the VMU ?



Will try CvsSNK2 on netdimm and see if same, as thought that was one of the titles that supported DC?
