UD-CPS2: Fully Consolized Capcom Play System 2

Would love to be added to the list of people interested in an UD-CPS2.

Hey UD you can definitely add me to the list this time around… i have 2 a boards with your name on em!

Good news, everyone (having ps[12x]→ps3|x360 problems)

The mayflash universal adapter works A-OK with ud-cps2’s usb decoders and ps1|psx controllers. It even works with the decoder’s re-map function!. Just make sure of the following:

[list]
[] The dip switches behind the adapter must have both labeled as ā€˜3’ on on/up. The rest, leave them off/down. You can experiment with these, but do mind that if the adapter is not on either ps3 mode or xbox360 mode, it will enter pc mode, and will not work.
[
] Sometimes, when using an non-analog psx controller, the adapter wouldn’t pick it up. In order to tackle this, we made used a working ps2 controller with the adapter to re-map the buttons, and then disconnect it and plug the digital controller in. The adapter will isolate the real controller from the decoder and ā€œkeep itself pluggedā€ to the later.
[/list]

No, it is not the cheapest option to plug ps2 controllers, but it works with those really messy psx controllers and allows remapping (however cumbersome it may seem to you).

PS: You can check out the old man’s use of his psx controller + mayflash on Old Fei Long here and here. Totally worth all the struggle.

Definitely interested. E-mailed but will also PM! Thanks!

Played a shitload of ST on one of these at Rewired (mini-major) in Tucson last weekend with one of the best ST Blanka players in the US @Fromo and various other people from the AZ FGC.
Damn I want one of these.

@undamned you need to come over and test all these Eightarc sticks while I have them available. I already sold all the Qanba Q1 cut sticks I had (I confirmed 360 one works just fine)

Did you have a chance for a possible write up? :slight_smile:

Is this thread still going? I wanted to know the price of a UD-CPS2 board before placing an order.

Same here. I also would like to know.

@undamned You still slammed with orders or can I put in for one

I haven’t been able to get back into building since last summer. Work been rough, busy with family, tired, etc. Hopefully later this year I’ll get back to it. There’s probably 100 people in queue, so don’t hold your breath.

Ah. Good to see you back. I wonder if I will ever get one :frowning:

Glad to see you’re still around. Excited for whenever you get back into it!!

Take your time,it has no emergency.Cant wait to get mine though

Real talk, after getting all of the pieces together, I now have your UD-CPS2 running ST and I love it! Now the issue I’m running into is having to get a framemeister to run it when I don’t have access to a CRT (here in Korea) and to capture. Other than that, love it!

Cool! Yeah, Framemeisters are expensive :frowning: I think the older XRGBs may do well with it. Maybe do some digging for information on those.

We have some options we’ve been experimenting with both with streaming off a CRT with RCA cables and S-Video, as well as running setups off of a LCD TV with low lag. We’ve been trying out TWO upscalers specifically with CRT -> LCD in mind:

The first is this: https://www.amazon.com/Converter-Adapter-HDMI2AV-Support-Output/dp/B00P12BOO8

It uses common RCA inputs but works fairly well. I didn’t run any technical tests other than playing on a Supergun with ST hooked up, and felt like there was VERY minimal lag, in the order of less than 1 or 2 frames. I feel it is a common substitute for CRT or arcade cab play.

Next up is one specific to PS2: https://www.amazon.com/HDV-G300-HDMI-Converter-Scaler-1080P/dp/B0093JQM56

Works extremely well for PS2 setups (in this case, tested with CVS2 on PS2). It’s only downside is that it’s ONLY for PS2 games, which severely limits its use to a small handful of games.

Hello Undamned like to buy a motherboard UDCPS2 You would have a ready? Could you pass the values?

Doesn’t look likely. Check out undamned’s post from a few months ago. He’s backlogged like crazy.

On that thought, I’ve had a spare CPS-2 A-board that I’ve been meaning to consolize myself.
Still waiting on specs for that DC/DC converter so that I can avoid using a PicoPSU in there. :smiley:

Thank you friend I had not seen this post,I intend to stay in the queue.

As an FYI, this works great hooked up to the OSSC with a PSX SCART cable.
