im pretty sure you have to put the number 1 dip switch on before you turn it on to get in the bios
Your help is appreciated (and yes, I'm aware that multicarts generally aren't cool, I consider this cart a way to check out which original games to buy next).
I think it's because you're not using the controller through jamma. You'd want to use the supergun controller, not the controller ports on the 2-slot.I recently got hold of a 138-in-1, but I'm having problems running it:
When I connect both the harness and the cart, it takes me to the game select menu just fine, except it doesn't respond to joystick input at all, so I can't choose/start the games I want. It basically just sits there in the menu, you can't do anything
If I leave the harness out and only insert the cart it starts up the first game on the game-list (KOF2002 MAGIC II) and everything works, joystick input etc, no problems at all.
I've tested with different joysticks and it's the same, joystick input doesn't work in the game select menu. I've also tested the different switch settings (S1 and S2 on the harness), makes no difference to the joystick input problem.
My setup:
Vogatek MK III supergun, 2-slot MVS board, original bios (have also tested with 4-slot, orig bios). I'm using the joystick ports on the MVS boards since the Vogatek doesn't have joy ports on it.
My guess:
Since the 2- and 4-slot boards aren't 100% Jamma this might cause a problem, since the 138-in-1 harness expects a Jamma board. Could this be the problem?
Could this be fixed by some sort of MVS to Jamma harness?
Also, could the supergun + harness combo cause problems?

MAME was created by god? Well, at least that explains why it sucks so much.That's why god invented Mame.
Of course in the case of the MVS board alone that's true, but I was thinking because this is one of the multicarts that has the jamma adapter, it might require the controller be hooked up through the jamma adapter.You can use either one, they both connect to the same thing.

I can't get the second player to work on some of the games on my 138 in 1. Any advice??
