insert coin (joust) strange problem
MiKman:
I have this strange problem only seems to be with joust. The coin 2 button (6 on the keyboard) gives 4 credits. On all other games it gives only 1 credit like it should. Anyone else notice this? using Mame32 0.84. I also deleted the joust.cfg and the default.cfg files but no difference...
Any ideas or is this happening to everyone? Could it be this is the way it's supposed to be?
Thanks,
Mike

Yes, Joust gives me 4 credits too on Player 2 credit. It also happens on the other Williams games I play - Defender, Stargate and Robotron. But not on SmashTV.

That's because these Williams games assume you're using a three slot coin door. The left and right are a quarter, and the center slot is a dollar. Check it out in game settings. Better yet, here's a screenshot:

Interesting, must be a bug in the williams roms or maybe mame itself... I should get to my local arcade and play some williams games, making sure I put my quarters in the coin2 side ;D
SirPeale:
Nope, not a bug, the center slot is for dollar coins. I've got one of those Williams doors around here somewhere.
