Namco Classic Collection Vol.2 PCB no flip option??

[goatboy]

Finally got this excellent PCB. Fired up my NAC and found out the image's upside down and i can't find a flip option on the board. All other games on my NAC are correct. Anyone know a solution to this instead of flipping the yoke?

Thanks, Henk.

Rotate your screen the other way.

You need to flip the yoke or install a switch (to flip the yoke). There's no software flip

Damn! But thanks for verifying this. Will just rotate the CRT the other way then. Really too bad there's no software switch on this lovely board.

Another thing, There are 2 pots on the PCB. I assume one is for volume but does anyone know the function of the other one? Got all the original paperwork but it's all in Japanese.

Does the NAC rotate the other direction?

Is this issue related to the Namco candy cab screen rotation problem? I believe the Exceleena series actually rotates the opposite way due to older Namco games having a different orientation. I have not modified my Exceleena and I cannot play PS2 DDPDOJ or 1943 PCB because there is no option to flip the screen.

Only if you disassemble and reassemble the monitor frame.

Flipping the yoke really is the best option, also the simplest after board dips.

Thanks Ralph - I thought that was the case from having looked at them before

Exactly, Just found this out the hard way. Will look into this yoke flip switch thing as i can't stand the fact of not being able to play this board.

[goatboy]

Well, Just had a look at this yoke flip switch. This kind of tech stuff scares the hell out of me, I could never pull this off so i'm better off selling the damn board. What a shame!!

Its fairly easy to do buddy. If you need some help with it just let me know.

Think i saw your tut right? Any help is welcome, Thanks mate! Think i freaked a bit cause i was really looking forward to this game.

[FrancoB]

I'm happy to help however I can.

Yep, the guide I did is [here].

I'm happy to talk you through any parts you need help with.

I can send you some of the electrode that I used to make up the male connectors if you like.

If you really get stuck and can't do it I could probably make a set up for you if you can source some of the female yoke connectors.

Thanks again Franco. Let's see if i can source those connectors. But don't be surprised when you see this game up for sale very soon. Really odd they flipped this game the wrong way round. The board's not that old really (1996)

[goatboy]

Can i also flip the screen by unplugging and flipping both of the plugs on the chassis manually?

[FrancoB]

Yep, just turn the cab off and then change the polarity of these plugs:

[goatboy]

Thanks again for confirming! Sounds easy enough so i can just play this game for now, Cheers!

[FrancoB]

No problem, have fun

[goatboy]

Looks like i got an MS8 29FSG in my NAC. Anyway, There's just one yoke plug. Can i just put it on the other connector on the chassis? One says 'normal' and the other one 'reversed'.

Yes.
