Mame Cocktail Mode??
« on: May 12, 2005, 02:11:45 pm »
I'm just working on the gl.tter Light Signal Engine for MAME 0.96 (see this thread), and I'm stuck on something.

I'm able to identify when cocktail mode is enabled in a game, and I can see the player 2 controls that are used in cocktail mode.

In cocktail mode, cocktial games use 2 player controls.  You need to set the cocktail dipswitch.

My mistake - it does work in both games.  I had assumed that you can toggle the bit during the game and it would work - turns out it needs a restart to kick in :).

Thanks.
