One of them did come with this, but I have no idea how to use it! I think it was for linking virtua vighter 3, or maybe JVS?

looks like a jamma pass-through to hook up player2 on another cab. the blast is designed for linking, that's what the 50 pin RA connector on the i/o is for, no need to disconnect shit from your panel ;) but this works too and you got it free .

Okay so, interesting question for y'all. My blast shitty I mean city is lacking the back panel of the marquee area which holds the fluorescent light and screws to the body of the cab. I have been very unlucky in attempting to obtain one, so I said to hell with it and am going to custom fab one myself. I already have another light from a scrapped american cab and I plan on getting a metal sheet, cutting it to size, and drilling holes for the screws. The only problem is, I have none of the original screws so I need to know what size/specs they are. Im assuming theyre metric since everything else on this cab is. Would someone be so kind as to unscrew one and tell me the size and hopefully what metric number screw it is?

did you connect it here?

Also, did you make sure ground is connected correctly? a continuity tester/voltmeter will become your best friend very soon.

yeah connected there. for some reason, p2 heavy and med kick work, thats it.

from top down it goes:

p2 ground
p1 ground
p2 heavy
p1 heavy
p2 medium
p1 medium
p2 light
p1 light

also note, my grounds are good. and for so some reason, when following the diagram on your youtube video about the option loom, my p2 kick buttons that work (5&6) do not match the colors you said were 5&6

I'm too lazy for this shit. I run a generic kick harness straight into my A-Board; Capcom I/O; dreamcast or 360 padhack. it's a lot less to worry about;)

props to lem for wiring it up for me as well.

I know I've seen issues with bad AMP connectors before, have you tried to wiggle the wires around(at the extra button connection in the CP and at the buttons themselves) with a game in to see if they are just making bad connections?

Time for continuity testing! I will say try one more thing: if your extra button loom is new, I would look to see if it has wires for every slot in the connector. If there are some missing, I would look at the...ah hell, I'm sick of trying to describe this, I'll take some pictures and show what I mean in a minute.

^That was my thought, notice on giz10p's site there is an option for naomi, but you must select blast/astro before adding to your shopping cart.
