About This File
A ready-made LEDBlinkyControls.xml with a control entry for every game on my cabinet, built across most of my LaunchBox platforms. Each game lights only the buttons it uses, in a colour for each button. LEDBlinky speaks what each button does, such as “Jump” or “Claw Attack”, instead of just its position. PS1 games follow the PlayStation pad layout. Lightgun games keep the panel lights off. The file has about 14,500 control groups.
It will work best if you have:
- A 2-player panel (Mini-PAC or X-Arcade) with the default MAME-style keys. Player 1 uses Ctrl, Alt, Space, Shift, Z, X, C and V. Player 2 uses A, S, Q, W, I, K, J and L.
-
ROM files named like mine. Entries match the file name, uppercased with spaces turned into underscores, for example
AKUJI_THE_HEARTLESS_(USA). Games with different file names won’t match and will fall back to your defaults. - LEDBlinky already installed and set up with your own LED wiring. This file holds only the per-game controls, colours and spoken names. It does not include your LED port setup.
How to use it:
- Close LEDBlinky and BigBox.
-
Back up your original
C:\LEDBlinky\LEDBlinkyControls.xmlto somewhere safe. - Replace it with this file.
- Restart LEDBlinky and BigBox, and test a few games.
Use at your own risk. This replaces your existing controls file, and I can’t test it on every setup. Always back up your original before replacing it. If anything looks wrong, put your backup back.
