Would you be able to explain how did you configure the two mouse buttons so that the trackball can also be used as a mouse? Assuming you have a hyperspin /launchbox system. Thank you.
Ah, good question. The Ultimarc Trackball includes a USB pcb with mouse support. I wired the 24mm buttons to the Ultimarc pcb and not to the Ipac. That was the 'trick'. Thanks, Daniel
How many working hours from start to finish? Then I guess the programming? How long does something like this take altogether & could you add aim track light guns to this type of set up?
Hi, yes you can easily add Aimtrack guns. See this video: czcams.com/video/WnyFwZEzLbA/video.html | I am not sure how many hours went into this. Quite a lot haha. Several weeks for sure. Thanks, Daniel
5:20 sorry i'm not familiar with why you have the USB-B port vs a standard port to connect to PC, may you elaborate? these builds are so fun! hope you keep showing new builds for inspiring others! (and of course to market your business)
Hi, thanks for your message! It is common practice to use a USB ‘to host’ connection for peripherals. But I could also use a double USB A cable indeed.
Amazing build, got so much inspiration out of it! Could you explain more in details your switch on/off/reset of the Raspberry Pi? I've never been able to have mine working and always have to shut it down via Emulation Station menu :(
Hi, Thanks for your message! You can use the ATX Raspi board by my friend Felix from Low Power Lab. You can visit his site here: lowpowerlab.com/shop/product/91 This board will safely restart/shutdown your Pi and more... Good Luck! Thanks Daniel
Hi Daniel the green, blue red and yellow cables in the beginning of the video (@ 1:20) did you crimp them ? The ones which are delivered from Ultimarc are much to short. I had to make them longer so i was soldering them and crimped them. The Problem is, after a while the cable break at the soldering part if they get moved to much.
Hmm, I just bought very long cables with crimp connectors on it (not on the Ultimarc Site) Sometimes you can also change the location of the ipac if the cables are too short...
That looks great but one thing confuses me. Every Control Board is different. Some have 20 buttons some might have 90! How does the emulator for 300 different systems know what action to take on a button press?!
Can you make a tutorial on the code for the switch? I have a small 1 player fightstick and I use it with my raspbrry inside. I wish to be able to use it on my pc as well, without opening it each time. thanks!
Those heimitsu pushbuttons; you say you just ordered the smoke color and yourself modded them and attached different color LEDs to light up the rings? I'm looking at many different ideas to help me decide what I want and I do like the idea of lighted button rings but am wondering : how'd you do that?
@@TheDanielSpies_Arcades thank you for the info, is there a video how to do this? I dont know anything except i need one of these cabinets, but I cant ship to the country I stay in without spending a LOT of money
🤔 I invested hundreds and hundreds of hours learning Hyperspin and building Arcade cabinets. If you need a shortcut you can buy a ready to go drive from HyperArcadeSystems.Com and let somebody create a machine for you...
wow if I had your skills 😍🤩🤩 ...that is amazing and to say i am envious is an understatement ha ha... did you share a part list or diagram of 3d model anywhere? Also was there a reason you chose not to do a spinner? I would love to do a small controller with a trackball and spinner... as have a street fighter iv te edition 360 stick that serves my other games
For this model I don’t really have a part list. But this one was pretty easy to make. Wiring diagram is not really needed as the Ultimarc boards are already labeled in a great way. Let me know if you get stuck with your build and I will try to help if needed. Thanks D
This is awesome!! Because of this video I'm a few hundred £££ down so far lol but slowly building up the components to build a 4 player for me and my son, could i pick a bit of your knowledge if possible.....is there a certain hyperspin for a raspberry pi 4 or will any hyperspin work as I have a friend with hyperspin on a bar top but it's on a PC will that make a difference? Thanks for any help
Sorry for that 💶 😄🙈 , about Hyperspin, yes there are versions specially made for Raspberry Pi’s. But most people will suggest to use RetroPie for Raspberry Pi setups. It is free to download 👍🏽
Thanks for the advice I'll try retropie then and just add the games to that instead until I find a hyperspin for the pi as I like the look of the hyperspin layout
i have individual encoders 4 players they power up when plugged into an individual port on the pc but wont operate reliably off a powered or non powered splitter what splitter do you suggest?
I can’t as this takes too much time and will be risky (damages etc) sorry! But if you need help with anything or need a cabinet panel or design, feel free to email me 👍🏼
I only make a few (high end) projects per year. But I can create a CAD design for you with building instructions if you like. Email me for more information. Thanks D

This is what I call ART of making beautiful things!
Who else remembers the hours of fun Sierra games gave us all. My daughter and I played countless hours of Quest for glory.
Yeah, great memories indeed. Keep an eye on my next project, you will r e a l l y like it I think 😉 #msdos #fpga
You could put iron man behind the rgb ball for ur next one. Looks so cool! Great work
Smart idea!! Thanks
harbibbi here don't know if you remember the name from your emails great work man .now thats what you call being creative.
Absolutely beautiful build, I would love that!!!
2 yrs still amazing build man :)
Beautiful control panel!
What a fantastic machine, well done
I make machines and pinballs and you have definitely given me ideas to make better machines 👍
Great work mate.
just freaken amazing sir.
So cool brother. Love your work.
Wow so amazing I want one of these so bad I wish I was smart enough to build my own
this is great. I will be making my own soon.
Nicely done!
Love this. This is what I want.

Masterpiece !
Would you consider selling any of your builds ? Or even being commissioned for one ?
Yes I am also interested in buying one
Why support a channel when the person can't be bothered to do a simple reply.

9:18 I've never heard someone say Aladdin that way. Any other mistakes I didn't see?
Haha I am not a native English speaker, in Dutch language Aladdin is pronounced as ‘Alla-din’ haha. Thanks for watching the video in detail ✊🏻

That looks great but one thing confuses me. Every Control Board is different. Some have 20 buttons some might have 90! How does the emulator for 300 different systems know what action to take on a button press?!
That is done within the emulator through mapping. In Mame for instance, you can map each button in s different way for every single game..
Can you make a tutorial on the code for the switch? I have a small 1 player fightstick and I use it with my raspbrry inside. I wish to be able to use it on my pc as well, without opening it each time. thanks!
I can send the code to you if you like? Thanks Daniel
@@TheDanielSpies_Arcades same question as well, would you be able to send me the code? TIA
could someone send me the codes please?
Do you have the dimensions for your arcade? That's the perfect size and trackball that I'm looking for.
aegsxr750 Hi, yes I do sell the building plans (DFX files ready for cnc milling) contact me by mail if you are interested in this. Thanks Daniël
need a spinner to play lot of mame games like forgotten worlds, arknoid, etc
In my more recent video’s they all have spinners indeed 🙌🏻
Those heimitsu pushbuttons; you say you just ordered the smoke color and yourself modded them and attached different color LEDs to light up the rings? I'm looking at many different ideas to help me decide what I want and I do like the idea of lighted button rings but am wondering : how'd you do that?
Ah, I just placed a led strip underneath these Seimitsu buttons. They have no build in LED’s. Thanks, D
Hi, awesome build. Where do I get the hyperspin board?
Hi Eric, the board is an Ipac4 interface from Ultimarc. The games (Hyperspin) you need to install on a Raspberry Pi or on your PC
@@TheDanielSpies_Arcades thank you for the info, is there a video how to do this? I dont know anything except i need one of these cabinets, but I cant ship to the country I stay in without spending a LOT of money

Are the coin buttons and P1-4 buttons wired as Select and Start, respectively?
Yes 👍🏽
Amazing job! Possible to get the schematics you used for the cnc machine?
Hi Joe, yes I do sell the cnc files for each of my builds. Send me an email to arrange this. Thanks D
very nice, how much would you make one for ???

I only have experience with Ipacs. They work great thru a USB hub (non powered) Thanks Daniel
Hey Buddy can I send you my PC and Hyperspin HDD for you to set it up for my pedestal with Ultimate IO’s?
I can’t as this takes too much time and will be risky (damages etc) sorry! But if you need help with anything or need a cabinet panel or design, feel free to email me 👍🏼
