Sega-Naomi

Hi,



I can connect me Dreamcast to my Naomi Uni Cab no problems but I dont have any controls. I since then bought a MGCD is that what I need to get the control panel to work or have I wasted my money and should of bought something else?



Thanks

I have one of these which allows me to use my DC in my AWSD cab but i use the Jamma harness(which also needed an adaptor to correct a grounding issue which was stopping the controls working), does your cab have a Jamma harness?

Pics of your set-up would also help old pal

I woulnt need the Jamma part as there is no Jamma loom in the cab

My MGCD has a JAMMA edge, how does yours connect then?

thats what I am asking - I connect my dreamcast using a VGA box from the Dreamcast and then the plug the VGA cable from my Naomi mobo onto it.

What is the grounding adapter you are talking about for fixing controls?



I am interested in getting a project working and I think this would help





Thank you for your time

The MGCD is needed to use the controls, if your just connecting the DC up with nothing else you'll only get picture, no controls, you'll need to use your DC controllers plugged into the console.

My CP controls only work from my jamma edge

If i remember correctly its only a couple of grounds on the jamma adaptor that are different to a normal Jamma set-up.

does the MGCD need be plugged into a Jamma Loom if so its no good to me as I dont have a Jamma Loom...



I was thinking something like this

but instead of connecting it to an X-Arcade change it to a USB female and connecting the ohe mail that usually connects to the Naomi mobo.



What go you reckon
